ARC Raiders Assorted Seeds Guide: Farming Routes, Celeste Trades & When to Sell

Assorted Seeds look like junk loot. They're not. Every seed is 100 Arc Coins or trade currency for Celeste's shop — complex gun parts, batteries, tool parts, the works. A full stack weighs 5 kg and sells for 10,000 Coins.

ARC Raiders Assorted Seeds Guide: Farming Routes, Celeste Trades & When to Sell



What Are Assorted Seeds?

A common Nature resource with unusually good stats:

StatValue
Weight 0.05 kg
Stack size 100
Sell value 100 Arc Coins each
Full stack value 10,000 Arc Coins

Low weight. Big stacks. Guaranteed vendor price. That's the definition of free filler loot — if you have backpack space, grab them. Always.

Two Uses: Trade with Celeste or Sell for Coins

Trading with Celeste (usually better)

Open Traders → Celeste. Her shop accepts seeds as currency for:

  • Complex gun parts and rare weapon components
  • Batteries, wires, basic hardware
  • Tool parts
  • Fabric and plastic

Her stock resets every 24 hours with daily purchase limits on some items. Check her daily. Miss a rotation, miss the rare part.

Selling (fast cash, zero thought)

SeedsArc Coins
25 2,500
50 5,000
100 10,000

The rule I run by: trade seeds for bottlenecks, sell seeds when there's no bottleneck. If one material keeps blocking your upgrades, that's what your seeds are for. If Celeste's stock is trash today, sell the overflow.

What to Buy First from Celeste

PriorityItemWhy
High Complex gun parts / rare components Hard to target-farm, gate weapon progression
Medium Batteries, wires, tool parts Crafting chain fuel — buy when stash runs low
Low Fabric, plastic, basic hardware Scavengeable everywhere. Only buy if blocked right now

Don't spend seeds on stuff the ground gives you for free.

Where to Farm Assorted Seeds

SourceSeed Potential
Seed Vaults Very High
Hydroponic Dome Complex High
Nature zones / Seed Drawer Boxes High
Wicker Baskets Medium–High
Fridges, Lockers Medium

Nature zones are your baseline income. Hydroponic Dome Complex is the reliable route. Seed Vaults are the jackpot — and the risk.

Seed Vault Run (the money method)

A clean vault run pulls 70–100 seeds. My average is around 78 seeds = 7,800 Coins per run.

1. Locate the vault entrance and the access object nearby.

2. Slot it into the vault mechanism, open the door.

3. Enter carefully — threats spawn inside, and other Raiders want this loot too.

4. Clear every seed container. Loot fast.

5. Extract. Seeds are worth nothing dead.

Warning: the moment you hit 70+ seeds, your backpack is a bounty. Stop chasing low-value loot and leave.

Recommended Practical Route

1. Spawn near a nature-heavy zone.

2. Sweep through the Hydroponic Dome Complex — drawers, baskets, fridges, lockers.

3. Vault nearby and uncontested? Hit it.

4. At 50+ seeds, start thinking extraction. At 70+, go.

This route doesn't depend on the vault. Even contested, normal scavenging still fills your stack.

Strategy by Progression Stage

StageWhat to Do
Early gameHoard seeds. You'll need them the first time Celeste stocks something critical
Mid game Trade for gun parts and electronics bottlenecks
Late game Buy rare components first, dump overflow for Coins
Pure Coin farming Vault runs, sell full stacks

Mistakes That Cost You

  • Selling everything on sight. Keep a reserve until you know Celeste's rotation.
  • Ignoring the 24h reset. Daily limits mean missed trades don't come back.
  • Buying random materials. Spend on your actual crafting bottleneck, nothing else.
  • Skipping small containers. Seed Drawers and Wicker Baskets add up fast.
  • Greeding past 70 seeds in a vault. A dead Raider's stack pays someone else.

FAQ

What are Assorted Seeds used for in ARC Raiders?

Trade currency with Celeste — crafting materials, electronics, tool parts, and gun components depending on her daily stock. Or sell them for 100 Arc Coins each.

Where's the best place to farm Assorted Seeds?

Seed Vaults for volume (70–100 per run). Hydroponic Dome Complex and nature zones for consistent, low-risk farming.

Should I sell seeds or trade them?

Check Celeste first. Rare gun parts or bottleneck materials in stock? Trade. Weak rotation or you need cash now? Sell.

Does Celeste's shop reset?

Yes — every 24 hours, with daily purchase limits on some items. Check daily or lose trades.

Are Seed Vaults dangerous?

Yes. Hostiles inside, other players outside. Clear carefully, loot fast, and plan your exit before your bag becomes worth killing for.

Summary

Assorted Seeds are lightweight, stackable progression fuel: 0.05 kg, stacks of 100, worth 100 Coins each or a targeted Celeste trade.

The playbook:

  • Always pick them up — 5 kg for 10,000 Coins is free money.
  • Check Celeste before selling. Bottleneck materials beat raw Coins.
  • Farm Hydroponic Dome, Seed Drawers, and Seed Vaults.
  • Extract at 70+ seeds. Greed kills profit.

Handle them right, and this common resource quietly funds your entire upgrade path.
