After we reviewed the best accessories for each weapon in ARC Raiders, Part One and Part Two, we continue the list in Part Three.
List of all accessories in ARC Raiders and the function of each
The accessory system in ARC Raiders has great depth because it allows weapons to be modified in ways that directly affect control, accuracy, damage, and firing speed. Each accessory in the game comes with specific benefits and sometimes some negatives that the player must know before choosing the right accessory for his weapon. The following table shows all of the game’s accessories with an expanded description of their function and effect on the battlefield.

List of weapon attachment tiers in ARC Raiders
The Tier List helps players understand the value of each accessory in ARC Raiders and the extent of its actual impact on the performance of weapons within Topside, as not all accessories are equal in their usefulness. Some of them provide a direct improvement without any negatives, while others carry side effects that make their use conditional on the style of play or the characteristics of the weapon itself. Therefore, accessories have been divided into four basic categories according to their practical impact within battles.
S-Tier — The strongest and best accessory with none of the downsides
This category includes the most efficient accessories in the game because they give a direct improvement to the weapon’s accuracy, stability, and ammunition capacity without any negative effects. They are accessories that can be installed on almost any weapon while ensuring a noticeable improvement in performance. They include:
- Silencer: Reduces firing sound without affecting damage or accuracy, giving an excellent tactical advantage
- Extended Mag: Increases ammo capacity without any collateral damage and is the best all-around accessory for sustained combat
- Compensator 2: Clearly reduces distortion and enhances accuracy in a balanced way
- Muzzle Brake 2: Reduces vertical and horizontal recoil without any negatives
- Stable Stock 2: Reduces recoil and dispersion recovery time without affecting ADS
This set is the foundation for building any powerful loadout because it gives the best value for any effort.
A-Tier — Effective and excellent attachments but more specialized in use
This category includes powerful attachments, but they do not work absolutely efficiently with all weapons or require specific playing conditions to achieve the best result, including:
- Shotgun Choke 2: Significantly reduces shotgun dispersion and makes shots more focused
- Vertical Grip 2 / Angled Grip 2: Excellent recoil control balance for close and medium encounters
- Anvil Splitter: A powerful legendary accessory but limited to one weapon and very rare to obtain
These attachments provide excellent performance, but their utility is more specific to the weapon category than to being general solutions.
B-Tier — Good accessories, but they have minor drawbacks
Class B includes useful accessories and may be best for some weapons, but they carry minor side effects that reduce their overall value, including:
- Compensator 3: Excellent control of dispersion, but it does not offer a significant difference from the second level
- Muzzle Brake 3: Reduces recoil but quickly consumes durability
- Shotgun Choke 3: Higher accuracy, but at the expense of durability
- Kinetic Converter: Increases firing rate but raises recoil significantly
- Padded Stock: Provides excellent stability but slows down ADS and increases weapon equipping time
- Extended Barrel: It enhances the speed of shots but increases the vertical recoil
These attachments are useful and effective, but they do not suit all players or all weapons.
C-Tier — Accessories of limited utility or very narrow use
This category includes extensions that provide a small or negative benefit that exceeds their usefulness or does not fit into the current meta and includes:
- Lightweight Stock: Increases ADS speed but raises recoil and reduces stability, making it less valuable compared to better alternatives
This type of accessory may suit specialized players, but its use is not necessary for most weapons.
Clarify the structure of categories
- S-Tier: The best accessories in the game without exception because they provide high benefits without any negatives
- A-Tier: Powerful attachments, but they depend more on the type of weapon or play style
- B-Tier: Good accessories, but they are accompanied by minor drawbacks that reduce their flexibility
- C-Tier: Limited or unnecessary accessories in most cases
Accessories are not included Ordinary or low quality Because it does not significantly affect the weapon’s performance compared to higher-ranking accessories.
