ARC Raiders 1.30.0 Patch Notes: Expedition Vault Repricing

A store and economy update that cuts the cost of unlocking all five Expedition Vaults, with no combat balance changes.

v1.30.0By BrokenBuilds WikiUpdated

What Changed

  • No combat balance. No weapon, augment, shield, or ARC-class values changed.
  • Expedition Vault repricing: tier 1 unchanged, every later tier now a flat 200,000 credits instead of stacking.
  • Total cost to unlock all five vaults drops from roughly 3,000,000 to roughly 1,000,000 credits.
  • Ermal, the Speranza trader, opened a new weekly offer rotation at 6am PDT / 1pm UTC / 3pm CEST.
  • Leviathan Set Midnight and Crimson Frost color variants added, auto-unlocked for existing owners.
  • Dev acknowledgement of Xbox crashes and PC FPS regressions since 1.29.0, with no fix shipped in this update.

Build Impact

  • No combat balance, so the optimization unit is untouched and the DPS calculator runs on the same constants.
  • Weapon and augment tier lists are unaffected; no weapon, augment, shield, or ARC-class loadout choice changes.
  • Expedition Vault economics shifted: unlocking all five vaults now costs roughly 1,000,000 credits instead of roughly 3,000,000, so update any guide that quoted the old figure.
