The Kinetic Converter stock is one of the most sought-after legendary attachments in ARC Raiders, offering a 15% increase to fire rate. This bonus makes it exceptionally strong on weapons like the Stitcher, Bobcat, and Volcano shotgun, turning already powerful guns into top-tier PvE and PvP tools. While high-skill PvP lobbies can technically provide access to this item, many players prefer a safer, more reliable non-PvP farming route. Fortunately, there is a proven method that dramatically improves your odds without requiring streamer-level gunfights.

Why Avoid PvP for This Farm?

If you consistently dominate PvP encounters, farming other players can be efficient. However, for the majority of players, PvP lobbies-especially high-MMR ones-introduce unnecessary risk. Losing a raid means losing time, gear, and momentum. The method outlined below focuses on controlled risk, repeatability, and consistency, making it ideal for solo players or anyone looking to avoid constant firefights.

The Best Non-PvP Method: Buried City at Night

The most reliable non-PvP way to obtain the golden Kinetic Converter stock is to run Buried City at night using the Town Hall key. Across multiple tests, this location and key combination have shown a significantly higher drop rate than any other keyed room.

In nine documented runs of the Buried City Town Hall at night, the Kinetic Converter stock dropped three times, a far better ratio than alternatives like the Staff Room key, which produced fewer results despite more attempts. If you have Town Hall keys, do not sell or trade them away. These keys are extremely valuable for this exact purpose.

Loadout and Preparation

Before entering Buried City at night, prepare for stealth and control rather than aggression:

· Barricade (mandatory): This is the single most important tool for the run. Unlike jolt mines, barricades discourage enemy players without provoking them.

· PvE-capable weapon: You'll mainly be dealing with ARC enemies, not players.

· Utility items: Zip lines, seeker grenades, and healing items help with positioning and survival.

Avoid jolt mines for keyed rooms. If someone triggers a mine, they're far more likely to push aggressively. A barricade, on the other hand, usually causes players to disengage entirely.

Securing the Town Hall Safely

Once inside Buried City, head straight for the Town Hall room. Be cautious-there is often a Sentinel positioned above the entrance, depending on your approach angle. Clear threats quickly and quietly.

After opening the Town Hall door:

1. Close the door immediately

2. Place a barricade on the entrance

3. Loot the building one floor at a time

The Town Hall has three full floors of loot, so patience is essential. Clearing methodically ensures you don't miss valuable items and keeps your noise profile low.

Managing Player Encounters

If another player approaches, you will hear them hitting the barricade. This gives you time to communicate. Simply letting them know you're using a keyed room is often enough to make them back off. If they persist, you're fully justified in defending yourself-but most players retreat once they realize the door won't open easily.

Loot Highlights Beyond the Converter

In addition to the Kinetic Converter stock, Town Hall runs frequently with a yield:

· Bobcat weapon variants

· Complex gun parts

· High-value electronics

· Confiscation Room keys

· Pink keys (which can chain into future high-value runs)

A single successful run can exceed 100,000 credits in value, even before legendary attachments are considered.

Choosing the Safest Extraction

At night, the extraction choice matters. Plaza Rosa Head Station is the preferred exit because it only allows boarding from one side of the train, drastically reducing the risk of spawn camping. Other extracts have multiple approach angles and are far more dangerous.

Take cover near the platform, stay out of direct sightlines, and wait until boarding is safe.

Final Thoughts

If your goal is to reliably farm the Kinetic Converter stock without PvP, this method is currently the best option available. While it requires patience and a specific key, the drop rate, safety, and additional loot make it well worth the effort. Night raids may feel intimidating at first, but with experience, they become controlled and predictable.
