Continue ShoppingThe Vertical Grip II is an underbarrel weapon modification in Arc Raiders. Its purpose is simple: it reduces vertical recoil, making automatic and sustained fire easier to control. This is a practical upgrade for players who want more consistent accuracy without changing how a weapon handles too much.
Vertical Grip II provides a moderate recoil reduction. It does not change damage, fire rate, or weapon range. Its value comes from stability during continuous fire.
This makes it easier to keep your sights on target, especially when firing bursts or full-auto.

For players who want to save time or avoid relying on random drops, some choose to buy Arc Raiders Vertical Grip II blueprints from U4N. This can be a practical option if you already know this mod fits your loadout and you prefer to focus your raids on materials and progression instead of repeated blueprint hunting.
Blueprints in Arc Raiders do not have a fixed, guaranteed spawn point. Instead, they are found randomly from several loot sources while exploring maps and completing raids.
1. Loot Containers and Caches
Blueprints typically drop from:
There isn't a single fixed location where Vertical Grip II always spawns. If you're hunting it specifically, target zones with many containers and high loot value. Medium- and high-tier areas generally give better results.
2. Night Raids and High-Value Events
Blueprint drop chances improve slightly in tougher raid conditions. While still random, these runs usually let you open more containers per session, which increases your overall chances.
3. Enemy Drops and Missions
Some blueprints can appear as mission rewards or rare drops from tougher enemies. This is less consistent than container looting but still possible.
Important: Blueprint drops are random. You might find the Vertical Grip II blueprint quickly, or it might take several raids. Consistent looting and efficient routes matter more than luck alone.
Once you find the Vertical Grip II Blueprint during a raid:
After learning the blueprint, the recipe stays unlocked permanently. You can craft as many Vertical Grip IIs as you need, as long as you have the materials.
If you no longer need the mod, it can be broken down for materials.
| Method | Materials Returned |
|---|---|
| Recycling | 1 × Mechanical Components 1 × Duct Tape |
| Salvaging | 1 × Mechanical Components |
This allows partial material recovery and helps reduce waste.

It is less impactful for single-shot or slow-firing weapons, where recoil control matters less.
