Tier Five Requirements
Tier five shifts away from specific items and instead focuses on credits earned through:
Combat
Survival
Provisions
Materials
This tier is essentially about selling everything, loot, trinkets, consumables, enemy drops, and shields. At this stage, efficiency and cash yield matter more than hoarding.
Maximizing Cash Yield Before the Wipe
For many players, the real endgame right now is maximizing skill points rather than completing the expedition. That makes raw currency farming the priority.
Fast Solo Money Runs: Grandioso Apartments Route
One of the most effective solo routes is running Grandioso Apartments into ARC Raiders BluePrints the jump-spot room near the hatch. With a Mark II or Mark III augment, preferably one with increased carry capacity and a dedicated trinket slot, you can focus exclusively on diamond-icon trinkets.
When uncontested, this route can yield between 60,000 and 80,000 credits in four to five minutes before extracting. However, the route is timing-dependent. Late spawns often mean arriving after other players, forcing you to pivot.
If Grandioso is contested, viable alternatives include:
Hospital, Research, and Space Travel zones in the north
Plaza Roma in the south, particularly the pharmacy and café loop
Red Tower, which now features a dynamic security bridge spawn, lockers, and containers
Flexibility is key. Knowing when to abandon a route and rotate quickly can save both time and loadout costs.
Stella Montis: High Risk, High Reward
Stella Montis remains one of the most lucrative but dangerous maps in the game. PvP is constant, but the payoff is substantial.
Quick Stella runs targeting Assembly or Medical Research can be done on budget loadouts. A clean run through Assembly often yields five to eight pink-tier items such as magnetrons, ion spiders, and gear counters. These items are excellent for resale or recycling into expedition materials.
Blueprint spawns were also buffed, making Stella Montis even more appealing. Duplicate blueprints sell for 5,000 credits each, adding consistent value. If you have a hatch key, Assembly becomes even stronger due to ARC Raiders Materials for sale its nearby extraction point.
