The Vulcano shotgun in ARC Raiders is a strong weapon of epic rarity. It is very capable in close quarters and can help you quickly take down hostile Raiders. With low bullet spread up close, this shotgun has a steep damage falloff. This makes it suitable for targets that quickly close the distance. Since this particular weapon has low ARC Armor penetration, it is wise to avoid spending shotgun ammo on stronger ARC targets.
This article explains how you can acquire the Vulcano shotgun in ARC Raiders.
Acquiring the Vulcano shotgun in ARC Raiders
Scavenge loot in Buried City
There are two ways to obtain the Vulcano shotgun in Embark Studios' extraction shooter. Players can either loot this weapon while venturing on the topside maps or craft one at the Gunsmith table in the Workshop. Here are a few areas in Buried City where the Vulcano has a high drop chance:
- Santa Maria Houses in Old Town
- Research building in the New District
Even though loot drops are random, Raiders have reported acquiring this epic shotgun in the locations mentioned above.

The Vulcano shotgun in ARC Raiders can be crafted using recipes that are obtained by uncovering the weapon-specific blueprint. This item must be acquired from high-value loot areas.
Since there is no guaranteed loot drop for blueprints, you will require multiple runs to obtain the specific ones you are hunting. In this situation, Raider Hatch Keys can help you safely extract and requeue a map.
After acquiring the Vulcano blueprint, here are the resources you will need to craft this shotgun.
Level | Recipe | Workshop |
Vulcano 1 | 1x Magnetic Accelerator 3x Heavy Gun Parts 1x Exodus Modules | Gunsmith 3 |
Vulcano 2 | 1x Vulcano I 1x Advanced Mechanical Components 2x Heavy Gun Parts | Gunsmith 1 |
Vulcano 3 | 1x Vulcano II 2x Advanced Mechanical Components 1x Heavy Gun Parts | Gunsmith 1 |
Vulcano 4 | 1x Vulcano III 2x Advanced Mechanical Components 3x Heavy Gun Parts | Gunsmith 1 |
Although crafting the weapon requires Gunsmith table level 3, upgrading the shotgun to higher levels can be done at table level 1. As you slowly upgrade this firearm, it will get a boost in its fire rate, a reduction in reload time, and additional durability.
This concludes our coverage on acquiring the Vulcano shotgun in ARC Raiders. It can deal a ton of damage when fighting hostile players up close, but falls off when shooting targets at a distance or fighting ARC robots. Use this alongside a weapon that has high ARC Armor Penetration to have a balanced loadout.
