Patch 1.30.0 has dropped for ARC Raiders, a "Store Update", and we've got a bunch of new additions to the game including new color variants for the Leviathan set (Midnight and Crimson Frost), expedition vault pricing updates, and other minor changes. This comes just a week after the last update - sweet!
Expedition Vaults Are Cheap?
You bet! Previously, expedition vaults started at a cost of 200k Credits and for each vault purchased, up to five, it would cost an additional 200k Credits over the previous vault. To "encourage trading" according to the developers, this is now changed so that each vault is worth 200k credits. You want all 5, that's only a million credits, down from the 3 million it would have cost in the previous system.
Not familiar with Expedition Vaults? No worries! This is a newer feature that dropped in last week's game update which gives you purchasable slots on each expedition to allow you to safely store 5 of your "most prized" items for retrieval post-expedition. These are accessed through Ermal and the slots are reset each expedition.
There's nothing that says this pricing is set in stone yet, the team has been analyzing data and feedback so you never know what could happen in the next update; They do call out that they will be continuing to monitor feedback.
Yeah, thats a pretty damn good change if we do say so ourselves.
