The Rascal Grenade Launcher is a rare (blue-tier) weapon in ARC Raiders, designed specifically to shred Arc enemies with its strong armor penetration. Unlike some weapons tied to specific map conditions, it can be acquired across all maps-but it requires strategy, patience, and knowing where to look. This guide breaks down every step to get your hands on this powerful, budget-friendly launcher.
Step 1: Understand the Rascal's Basics
First, it's critical to know what you're chasing. The Rascal is often called a "budget Hull Cracker," offering impressive Arc-killing power without the high crafting costs of legendary launchers. Importantly, its explosive projectiles only detonate against Arc targets-so it's useless in PvP fights against other raiders.
Crafting is the only confirmed way to get the Rascal permanently. Early patch notes incorrectly suggested it could be bought from Trader Tiana Wen, but this is not the case. To craft it, you'll first need its blueprint.
Step 2: Find the Rascal Blueprint
The Rascal blueprint spawns in loot containers across all maps, with no single guaranteed location. However, some methods and locations boost your chances significantly.
Target high-value loot spots: Locked key rooms (recently buffed for better rare item drops), security breach cabinets (requires the "Security Breach" skill), and long gun cases-all of which regularly spawn blue-tier weapons. Security breach lockers are available on every map, with Dam Battlegrounds and Spaceport's departure building being top picks.
Take advantage of map modifiers: Hurricane or Night Raid conditions increase loot value, making the Rascal blueprint more likely to drop. Raider caches during Hurricane conditions have some of the best spawn rates for the blueprint.
Try beachcombing on Riven Tides: This map's beach area, when paired with quiet matches, lets you search for buried loot. Using the Dockmaster's Detector (a metal detector-like item) here boosts your odds of finding the blueprint in sand-buried caches.
Step 3: Meet Crafting Requirements
Once you have the blueprint, you'll need two things: a max-level (Level 3) Gunsmith Workbench and specific crafting materials. If your workbench isn't Level 3 yet, focus on upgrading it using in-game progression tips to unlock the Rascal's recipe.
Gather the required materials (all relatively common compared to legendary weapons): 2x Advanced Mechanical Components, 3x Heavy Gun Parts, and 5x Canisters. If you're short, Heavy Gun Parts and Canisters can be bought directly from Trader Celeste, while Advanced Mechanical Components can be crafted, recycled, or found in common and Arc loot.
I had questions about my ARC Raiders BluePrints order and they fully answered them and were friendly, helpful and courteous. I 100% recommend MMOEXP.com and their customer service team!Using the discount code "fish" can provide you with substantial savings.
