Best Augments to Use in ARC Raiders (February 2026)

The Headwinds update gave us two new epic-tier augments that changed the meta of ARC Raiders. If you already acquired the Augments or are not happy with them, there are more options for you. Here's a guide on the best Augments in the game for you to use.

Best Augments to Use in ARC Raiders

Most of the Augments on this list will require a lot of grinding to acquire. Some of them aren't part of the meta but can still help you in the game. Here are the best Augments to use in ARC Raiders. 

Looting MK. 3 (Survivor)

Looting MK. 3 (Survivor) is the undisputed king of survival Augment. The self-revive perk that lets you regen while downed is a lifesaver in Solo vs. Squads mode. Aside from the perk, you also get an 80kg carry limit and 3 safe pockets. Although it can't store weapons in the safe pockets, it can still help you in the long run. The extra storage space and self-revive perk let you last longer and return with more loot from a raid.

Looting MK. 3 (Safekeeper)

Looting MK. 3 (Safekeeper) acts the same way as Looting MK. 3 (Survivor), the only difference is that you can store anything in the safe pockets. So while you're taking enemy fire and running low on health, you can put your valuable Epic or Legendary weapons in them. This Augment is great for PvE modes, so you can keep your important weapons safe from other raiders. 

Tactical MK. 3 (Revival)

Tactical MK. 3 (Revival) is a great Augment to have if you plan on playing in PvP servers. It has 16 slots, 2 safe pockets, and 5 quick-use slots. The Augment also restores one health for every 5 seconds, and if you take damage, the effect will pause for 30 seconds. If you're great at dodging enemy attacks and want to survive longer in raids, this Augment is just for you. 

Looting MK. 2

Looting MK. 2 is perfect for players who don't want to deal with an Epic Augment. It's considered an alternative to Looting MK. 3 (Survivor) since it's cheap to repair. You'll only need a Gear Bench Level 2 to craft it. It holds 60kg and has 22 Slots and two safe pockets. If a Tick is hunting you down, the Augment has a perk that automatically removes attached Ticks after 1 second.

Tactical MK. 2

Tactical MK. 2 can be used for any PvP Clutch moments. It gives players an Auto-Smoke on shield break that is great for escaping a 3-man squad or a Matriarch push. It gives you a 3-second window to escape from enemy sight. Despite being a Blue Tier Augment, it can help you cover quickly and efficiently.
