Arc Raiders Bobcat Blueprint: A Player’s Guide
What is the Bobcat?
The Bobcat is an epic, fully-automatic submachine gun that uses light ammo. Its main characteristic is a high fire rate paired with low accuracy. In practice, this means it excels in close-quarters combat but can be tricky at longer ranges. Players often use it to suppress enemies or finish off targets quickly, but you need to account for recoil and bullet spread.
Some quick stats for reference:
-
Damage: 6
-
Fire Rate: 66.7 rounds per second
-
Magazine Size: 20 rounds
-
Range: 44
-
Stability: 45.9
-
Agility: 73.1
-
Stealth: 21
Its low armor penetration means it’s less effective against heavily armored targets, but the high fire rate can still chip away at health if you aim for weak spots.
How do you get a Bobcat?
There are two main ways to acquire the Bobcat: scavenging and crafting.
-
Scavenging: Random drops from enemies or loot containers. This is purely RNG-based, so there’s no guarantee you’ll find it quickly.
-
Crafting: Requires a learned Bobcat Blueprint, which you can either find in the world or purchase from vendors. The blueprint is essential because without it, you cannot craft the weapon, regardless of your materials. For players who want a reliable method, it’s worth noting the best place to buy arc raiders blueprints is often vendor stock in higher-level hubs or trading posts where blueprints rotate frequently. Checking these locations regularly can save time.
What materials do you need to craft a Bobcat?
To craft Bobcat I, you will need the following ingredients:
-
1 × Magnetic Accelerator
-
3 × Light Gun Parts
-
2 × Exodus Modules
You also need to meet Gunsmith 3 and have the Bobcat Blueprint. Crafting higher-level versions of the Bobcat requires upgrading, which we’ll cover next.

How do you upgrade the Bobcat?Upgrading the Bobcat is a step-by-step process, and each upgrade improves its accuracy, reduces recoil, and decreases reload time. Here’s a practical breakdown:

In practice, upgrading is worthwhile if you plan to use the weapon long-term. The improvements in recoil control are significant, especially for new players who might struggle with the high fire rate at first.
How do you repair a Bobcat?
Each level of the Bobcat has a set repair cost. Repairs are crucial because a broken weapon loses effectiveness quickly in combat:
Regular repairs prevent sudden failures in missions. Many players stock extra parts so they don’t get caught without repair materials mid-run.
Recycling & Salvaging
If you have spare Bobcats, you can recycle or salvage them for parts. In practice:
-
Recycling returns both light gun parts and advanced mechanical components.
-
Salvaging primarily gives light gun parts.
This can be useful if you have duplicate weapons or need components for crafting other gear. Recycling is generally more resource-efficient if your goal is building new weapons.
Weapon Sale Price vs Component Value
Some players wonder whether it’s better to sell the weapon as-is or break it down into parts. Here’s what the numbers look like per inventory slot:
From experience, selling components is often slightly more efficient if you are inventory-limited, but holding onto a fully upgraded Bobcat is generally better for active combat use.
Practical Tips for Using the Bobcat
-
Close-quarters weapon: Keep engagements short to offset low accuracy.
-
Control recoil: Firing in bursts improves hit consistency at mid-range.
-
Upgrade early: Even Bobcat II feels significantly better than the base I, especially for reducing spread and recoil.
-
Keep spare parts: Repairs are relatively cheap but can pile up quickly in prolonged missions.
-
Watch ammo: With a 20-round magazine and high fire rate, you can empty your magazine in a second if you’re not careful.
The Bobcat is a solid choice for players who prefer high-speed, close-range combat. Its upgrades and repairs are straightforward, and with careful management of ammo and recoil, it can be a reliable weapon throughout most missions. Knowing where to get blueprints and how to efficiently craft and upgrade the weapon makes it a practical choice for both new and experienced players.
