Best Loadouts for Spaceport in Arc Raiders

Spaceport features wide open landing pads and long sightlines that favor ranged combat. The high value military loot attracts experienced players, making preparation essential for survival.

Long Range Primary

A battle rifle like the <a href="/items/venator">Venator</a> or sniper like the <a href="/items/osprey">Osprey</a> thrives on this map. The open areas around launch pads create engagement distances where assault rifles struggle. Equip optics for the best long range performance.

Indoor Backup

The hangars and control buildings require a close range option. Carry the <a href="/items/rattler">Rattler</a> SMG or a reliable sidearm for indoor clearing. Transitioning from outdoor to indoor combat happens frequently on this map.

Positioning Strategy

Control elevated positions around the launch pads. These spots give you visibility across the open areas and early warning of approaching threats. Never cross open ground without checking for players in elevated positions first.

High Value Targets

The launch control center and main hangar contain the best loot on the map. These areas are heavily contested and often have ARC heavy units guarding them. Approach with full health, fresh armor, and sufficient ammo. The rewards justify the risk for prepared raiders.

Spaceport Extraction

Extraction points on this map are mostly in open areas. Approach extraction carefully, using vehicles and structures as cover. If carrying valuable loot, clear the extraction zone thoroughly before initiating. Getting ambushed during extraction on this open map is devastating.
