\"Recycling<\/a>Recycling in Arc Raiders involves dismantling items to obtain crafting components. Always check the hover-description in your inventory for details like \u2018Used in\u2019, \u2018Can be recycled into\u2019, or \u2018Can be sold\u2019. During raids, if your inventory is full, prioritize salvaging items instead of dropping them.<\/p>\n

You may receive fewer materials, but it\u2019s better than losing them entirely. Regularly clean up your inventory by selling trinkets and recycling older loot you no longer need to avoid running out of space.<\/p>\n

Knowing which items to loot, sell, or recycle is crucial. When your inventory starts filling with Rare or Epic gear, recycling becomes the fastest way to stockpile high-end\u00a0crafting materials.<\/p>\n

1. What Is Recycling
\n\"Ruined<\/a><\/p>\n

Ruined Tactical Vest<\/p>\n

Recycling in Arc Raiders is the process of breaking down unwanted or extra items into raw materials and crafting resources that can be reused for upgrading, crafting, or repairing. This lets you convert old gear into valuable resources like Electronic Components, Refined Alloys, Explosive Materials, and more.<\/p>\n

Recycling is performed through the Workshop at your base.<\/p>\n

You should consider recycling when:<\/p>\n

You have duplicate items.
\nYou are low on materials needed for crafting or upgrades.
\nYour inventory is approaching its weight limit, and you need space for more valuable loot.<\/p>\n

2. How to Recycle Items<\/p>\n

Recycling in Arc Raiders is a straightforward process that lets you break items down into their base components. Make sure your inventory is under control before starting to recycle.<\/p>\n

Steps to Recycle<\/p>\n

Open your inventory at Speranza while on a raid.
\nSelect the item you want to recycle.
\nPress RMB (PC) or Triangle\/Y (PS5\/Xbox) to open the item dropdown menu.<\/p>\n

Choose the \u201cRecycle\u201d option at the bottom.<\/p>\n

Note: While in a raid, recycling items is referred to as Salvaging.<\/p>\n

Things to Consider Before Recycling<\/p>\n

Before recycling items in Arc Raiders, it\u2019s important to check a few key details to avoid losing valuable gear:<\/p>\n

3. What Items to Recycle and What Items to Keep
\n\"Keycards<\/a><\/p>\n

Keycards Arc Raiders<\/p>\n

One of the challenges in Arc Raiders is knowing what to recycle and what to keep. The game offers a staggering variety of inventory items, and deciding which materials to keep, recycle, or sell can be tricky.<\/p>\n

Tips to Decide<\/p>\n

By keeping an eye on upgrade requirements, you can avoid accidentally recycling valuable materials and make better decisions about what to salvage or sell.<\/p>\n

Track Resources<\/p>\n

In Arc Raiders, the Track Resources feature helps you monitor which items are needed to progress your base. This works for any workshop station at any level.<\/p>\n

How Tracking Works<\/p>\n

Click the Track Resources button for the station you want to upgrade.
\nOnce resources are tracked, return to your inventory.<\/p>\n

While scrolling through items, you\u2019ll notice a small eye icon in the top-right corner of any item that is required for an upgrade you\u2019re tracking.<\/p>\n

Benefits<\/p>\n

The eye icon appears on all items, whether you\u2019re looting, have it in your inventory, or in your stash.
\nThis feature helps prevent accidentally recycling valuable materials.
\nBy using the Log Book, you can see a complete list of everything you\u2019re currently tracking and which station it belongs to.<\/p>\n

4. List of Items to Recycle
\n\"Recycle<\/a><\/p>\n

Recycle Items<\/p>\n

Recycling breaks items into crafting components in Arc Raiders. Use this for items that have no particular quest or trinket value. Items with a Recycle tag are meant for crafting. Don\u2019t be too quick to recycle items early-game, as you later discover they\u2019re required for workbench upgrades.<\/p>\n

Below is the list of items you need to recycle to make some space for other crucial items in Arc Raiders.<\/p>\n

6. What Items to Sell<\/p>\n

In Arc Raiders, you should sell items that don\u2019t have any further use for crafting, quests, or upgrades but still provide good coins. Selling these items frees up inventory and stash space while earning currency for vendors.<\/p>\n

Best Items to Sell<\/p>\n

By focusing on selling items with little or no crafting value, you can maintain a clean inventory while earning extra coins to spend on essential upgrades and gear.<\/p>\n
