How to Find the Anvil Blueprint in ARC Raiders

In the realm of ARC Raiders, the Anvil gun stands out as one of the most formidable weapons available. Securing this firearm can significantly enhance your chances of defeating ARCs and other competitors. However, its rarity and high cost—particularly if you lack the blueprint—make it a sought-after item.

While there is no guaranteed spot to find the Anvil blueprint, knowing where to search and what to loot can greatly improve your odds of acquiring it. Below are tips on where to locate the Anvil blueprint in ARC Raiders.

Where to Locate the Anvil Blueprint in ARC Raiders

The Anvil blueprint can technically be found in any human container. This includes almost everything that is not an ARC container. Nevertheless, certain containers are more likely to yield high-rarity loot, such as the Anvil Blueprint. For those on the hunt for rare blueprints, focus your looting efforts on these sources:

Red Lockers: Always found indoors, these lockers frequently hold rare items, including blueprints.
Raider Cache: Typically located outdoors, often partially submerged in debris, these small metal containers feature a yellow logo. If you hear a ticking sound, you’re close. This cache was where I discovered my Anvil Blueprint:

Additionally, ensure to loot every human container you encounter, as this increases your chances of stumbling upon the blueprint. Equipping an augment with a safe pocket is advisable; you certainly don’t want to risk losing this valuable item.

Finding the blueprint is largely based on random luck. Players have reported discovering it in various unexpected locations, such as a suitcase within an apartment or even a trash can. Therefore, maintain your search and consider checking every container you come across.

Crafting the Anvil: Requirements

After successfully acquiring the blueprint, it’s crucial to learn it from your inventory. You will then be able to craft the Anvil at the Gunsmith workbench using the following resources:

The Anvil hand cannon is widely regarded as one of the top weapons in ARC Raiders, delivering a powerful performance. Therefore, securing and preserving its blueprint should be a primary objective; otherwise, you will need to spend 15, 000 resources to purchase it, a significant amount, particularly in the early game. If I had to predict a potential nerf, this weapon would be at the top of my list.
