The world of ARC Raiders is dangerous, and every player should be properly kitted up if they want to survive the threats that lurk Topside. Augments are some of the most important pieces of equipment, as some of them have special abilities and even extra Augmented Slots to store specific items. This guide will explain what Augmented Slots are and how you can use them in ARC Raiders.
How to Increase Stash & Backpack Space in ARC Raiders
Here’s how players can eventually increase their stash and inventory space in ARC Raiders if they want to store all the extracted items from matches.
All Augments & Their Augmented Slots in ARC Raiders?
Some Augments in ARC Raiders come with special Augmented Slots, which are extra spaces that can store a specific type of item. These allow players to add an increased number of items to their quick-use slots to use during a raid. These specialized slots aren’t available on the MK.1 variants of Augments, but players will be able to get them on higher-tier variants like MK. 2 and MK. 3.
Here’s a quick table listing all the Augments with Augmented Slots in ARC Raiders, and what type of items you can store in them.
