ARC Raiders Best Loot Runs: Stella Montas Guide to Reach 3 Million Coins

If you're trying to hit 3 million Coins fast in ARC Raiders, Stella Montis is one of the best maps to farm right now. The reason is simple: it gives us a strong mix of high-value loot, dense containers, blueprints, and crafting materials without forcing long, inefficient rotations.

 

ARC Raiders Best Loot Runs: Stella Montas Guide to Reach 3 Million Coins

 

After running this map repeatedly, the pattern is pretty clear. The best results usually come from Assembly into Medical, while Cafeteria and Lobby are strong backup routes when we spawn on the other side. If we play clean, cut weak items from the bag, and avoid wasting time, 500k–750k per hour is a realistic target.



Why Stella Montis Works So Well

What makes this map good is not just one jackpot room. It's the fact that almost every good path gives us two things at once:

  • Coins
  • Progression materials

 

That matters more than people think. In real runs, we're not only trying to sell loot. We also need:

  • Blueprints
  • Chemicals
  • Rusted gears
  • Mechanical parts
  • Keys
  • Weapon parts

 

So even a run that looks average on paper can still be highly efficient if it fills important shortages.

AreaBest ForLoot QualityRisk
Assembly Raw credits, weapon loot, keys High Medium
Medical Blueprints, high-value items, chemicals High Medium
Lobby Suitcases, augment blueprints, breaches Medium-High Medium
Cafeteria Fast loot, utility items, blueprints Medium Low-Medium
Material zones Rusted gears, chemicals, components Medium Low

 

The practical takeaway is simple: read your spawn and commit early.

 

 

Best Route: Assembly Into Medical

This is the route that consistently gives the biggest ARC Raiders Coins runs.

 

If we spawn close to Assembly, we clear it first, then move into Medical as fast as possible. When both sides are available, this is easily the highest-value path on the map.

 

Why it's the best

Assembly has:

  • Good blueprint chances
  • Weapon cases
  • Key drops
  • Security breach access
  • Strong small-slot loot

 

Medical adds:

  • More blueprints
  • Chemicals
  • Reliable high-value replacements
  • A surprising amount of missed loot, even in active raids

 

That last part is important. From experience, Medical often looks contested but still has plenty left. A lot of players skim it rather than clear it properly.

 

Example run values

RouteTypical Result
Assembly + full Medical 180k–213k
Assembly + partial Medical 120k–140k
Medical checked late but mostly unlooted Still very profitable

 

If you find a strong Assembly spawn and Medical is still open, that's the run where your bag gets heavy very quickly.

 

Best Backup Route: Cafeteria Into Lobby

If we spawn near Cafeteria or the Lobby side, we switch plans instead of forcing Assembly.

 

This route is not always as explosive as Assembly + Medical, but it's fast, consistent, and safer to chain repeatedly.

 

What to loot first

In Cafeteria, prioritize:

  • Power Brick room
  • Nearby containers
  • Weapon box
  • Table surfaces
  • Medical bags and loose utility loot

 

Then rotate into Lobby for:

  • Suitcases
  • Lockers
  • Security breaches
  • Small carts and side containers
Route SectionWhat to PrioritizeWhy It Matters
Cafeteria Power Brick room, loose loot, containers Fast early value
Lobby Suitcases, lockers, breaches Blueprint density and better upgrades
Key rooms Locker clusters if available Strong augment blueprint farming

 

This side of the map is especially good if you care about augment blueprints and want a route that stays efficient even when the premium Coins path is unavailable.

 

Best Material Farm: Rusted Gears and Chemicals

Some raids should be about progression, not just credits.

 

If you're low on rusted gears, chemicals, or mechanical components, Stella Montis also has very good utility farming. In my experience, these side material runs are worth doing early in an expedition because they save time later when upgrades start stalling.

 

What we usually get

From utility-heavy sections and nearby breachables, we can regularly pull:

  • 1–2 rusted gears
  • Chemicals
  • Mechanical components
  • Extra filler loot for decent sell value
ItemWhy We Farm It
Rusted Gear Common early bottleneck
Chemicals Used constantly in crafting
Mechanical Components Helpful for upgrades and bench progress

 

If you notice your account is blocked by crafting shortages, this route is often more valuable than greed-running for pure credits.

 

What Actually Increases Your Profit

The biggest difference between an okay run and a strong run is usually not luck. It's inventory discipline.

 

A lot of players keep weak filler too long. That quietly kills profit.

 

Follow this simple rule

If you find a better item, replace the worse one immediately.

 

Prioritize:

  • Blueprints
  • Flow controllers
  • Safekeepers
  • High-value compact loot
  • Crafting items you actively need

 

Drop:

  • Cheap filler
  • Redundant low-value materials
  • Weak weapons with poor slot value
Keep FirstDrop First
Blueprints Cheap filler junk
High-value single-slot items Low-return consumables
Needed chemicals Redundant common mats
Rare utility loot Weak holdover items

 

This is what turns a 120k raid into a 150k+ raid over time.

 

Common Mistakes

A few mistakes come up over and over:

  • Assuming Medical is always looted
  • Ignoring table surfaces and small side containers
  • Skipping suitcases in Lobby
  • Holding low-value items too long
  • Forcing one route no matter where we spawn

 

If you fix those, your hourly income usually improves without changing much else.

 

FAQ

What is the best Coins route in Stella Montis?

The best route is usually Assembly into Medical. It has the strongest mix of raw credit value, blueprints, keys, and high-tier replacement loot.

 

Is Medical still worth checking late in the raid?

Yes. In many runs, Medical still has value left behind. If you see signs it was only partially hit, it's absolutely worth checking.

 

What if I spawn near Cafeteria or Lobby?

Take the Cafeteria into Lobby route instead. It's a reliable backup path with strong blueprint density and fast container access.

 

Where should I farm rusted gears?

Focus on utility-heavy side areas and breachables. These spots are consistent for rusted gears, chemicals, and other early expedition materials.

 

Final Notes

If the goal is to get rich fast in ARC Raiders, Stella Montis is one of the best maps to do it. The strongest pattern is simple:

  • Assembly + Medical for max credits
  • Cafeteria + Lobby for consistent backup value
  • Material routes when crafting becomes the bottleneck

 

Once we start routing based on spawn instead of habit, the push to 3 million becomes much more manageable. The Coins comes faster, the bags get cleaner, and the runs feel far more consistent.
