What is the fastest way to get Bling in Infinity Nikki? As a gacha game, Infinity Nikki is of course brimming with different confusing currencies. But Bling is simple and easy to understand - it’s the most basic currency, used for pretty much everything from purchasing new outfits and abilities to unlocking new skills in the Heart Of Infinity skill tree.

There are tonnes of different ways to earn Bling, but some are definitely more lucrative than others. And if you learn how to combine different methods of farming Bling, you can start to earn over a million Bling per day. In the guide below, we’ll explain how to get Bling as fast as possible in Infinity Nikki, so that you never have to worry about dwindling Bling reserves ever again.

Fastest way to get Bling in Infinity Nikki

The fastest way to get Bling in Infinity Nikki is by selling items in the Realm Of Escalation , which can grow to net you well over 1,000,000 Bling per day. You can combine this with your regular Daily Wishes, quests, and upgrading your various levels, to end up with an enormous daily Bling income.

To lend some structure to your different sources of Bling in Infinity Nikki, below I’ve listed them in rough order of importance (in my opinion), so you know which Bling farming methods to prioritise if your time is short on a certain day. So read on to find out how it all fits together, and what you can do to earn silly amounts of Bling every day.

Selling items in the Realm Of Escalation

The Realm Of Escalation is by far the best way to earn Bling in Infinity Nikki, and when combined with the various other methods in this list, you can earn Bling in the millions every day.

The Realm Of Escalation is one of several “Realms” that you can access by interacting with any Warp Spire in the game. You’ll unlock the Realm Of Escalation during the “Unexplained Coma Incidents” main quest in Chapter 1 by speaking to Tokar, and within the Realm Of Escalation you can spend Energy in order to exchange crafting materials and resources for either Bling, Shiny Bubbles, and Threads Of Purity.

You can use the Realm Of Escalation with any materials you like, even items as easy to obtain as Daisies or Buttoncones. The exchange rate to begin with is: Spend 10 Energy (and the crafting material) to earn 10,000 Bling. So with 35 Daisies (for example), you can spend your 350 Energy per day to earn a whopping 350,000 Bling.

Ah, but there’s more. As you increase your Mira Level, you’ll upgrade this exchange rate of Energy and Bling. By the time you hit Mira Level 30, you can spend 10 Energy for 20,000 Bling, which doubles your daily Bling income to 700,000.

It still gets much better! You can replenish Energy using either Energy Crystals or Diamonds. Each Energy Crystal gets you back 80 Energy, which means a single Energy Crystal is worth 160,000 Bling, provided you’ve reached Mira Level 30. This also means that it’s best to hoard your Energy Crystals until you’ve reached Mira Level 30, in order to get the most Bling out of each of them.

If you don’t have Energy Crystals, you can also replenish Energy using Diamonds, albeit to a lesser extent. You can only exchange a maximum of 800 Diamonds per day, which gets you 480 Energy in total. Assuming Mira Level 30, that’s a whopping 960,000 Bling, which - yes, alright, control your salivating. The issue is that while there are lots of ways to get Diamonds, you earn them fairly slowly (tens at a time), and Diamonds are also used for a wide variety of different things, while Energy Crystals are only used for this specific purpose.

Progressing your Mira Journey

The Mira Journey in Infinity Nikki is essentially the game’s version of a Battle Pass. Every day you complete various tasks (ranging from simply logging in every day to pulling on Resonance Banners), and doing so earns you Journey EXP which increases your Mira Journey level, and gets you oodles of Bling in the process.

As with most Battle Passes, there is a general “track” of rewards, and a premium track with extra rewards that you can only earn by unlocking the track with real money. In Infinity Nikki, the general track is called “Journey Overture”, and the premium track is called “Distant Anthem”. Not every level gets you Bling (it’s more like every 2 or 3 levels), but each time it gets you between 8,000 and 40,000 Bling just on the basic “Journey Overture” track.

It gets better if you’re prepared to buy the “Distant Anthem” track. Instead of Bling rewards ranging between 8,000-40,000, you’ll get huge rewards of 32,000 to 160,000 Bling each time. That’s obviously a lot more Bling than we’ve mentioned in any of the previous methods of Bling farming - and it’s worth noting that the Mira Journey rewards also include enormous amounts of Diamonds and Energy Crystals for use in the Realm Of Escalation.

Completing quests

When you’re first starting your journey in Infinity Nikki, the easiest and most profitable source of Bling is simply completing whatever quests you come across. Main quests tend to give you the most Bling - around 20,000 or so. Side quests can get you between 10,000 and 15,000 Bling as well. Even after you’ve completed the entire game, daily quests will continue this source of Bling income.

Similarly to Daily Wishes, there are all sorts of “Random” quests and activities such as Kindled Inspiration and Observation which all earn you Diamonds that you can exchange for Energy to keep selling items for tonnes of Bling in the Realm Of Escalation.

Completing Daily Wishes

Daily Wishes are a surprisingly lucrative source of Bling each day, and it’s a better deal than you might think as well. Every day you have various different ways to earn Daily Wishes, and with every 100 you earn, you get a reward, up to a maximum of 5 rewards. It’s dead easy to earn all 5 rewards each day, and doing so will earn you 15,000 Bling.

What makes it even better is that the five rewards also earn you a total of 90 Diamonds, which can be used in the Realm Of Escalation, the most lucrative way of earning Bling every day.

Redeeming codes

As with many gacha games, Infinity Nikki allows you to redeem codes in-game for free rewards. A lot of the time, those free rewards will include a tidy sum of Bling. It’s a very inconsistent source of income, of course, but it also requires absolutely no work except checking our Infinity Nikki codes list and redeeming any new ones as they arrive.

Giving Dew Of Inspiration to Kilo The Cadenceborn

Dew Of Inspiration is everywhere at first in Infinity Nikki, and while it is a finite resource, the way you use it also nets you quite a bit of Bling. Once you’ve accrued certain amounts of Dew Of Inspiration, you can trade it in to Kilo The Cadenceborn at the Old Florawish Memorial in the Memorial Mountains . Each time you do this, you earn a new set of rewards, and each level gets you between 10,000 and 26,000 Bling.

This is also a method that involves a lot of exploration and labour, but it’s a lot more fruitful than just collecting Bling pickups in the world. So if you see Dew Of Inspiration in the world, make sure you purify it immediately before you forget.

Increasing your Mira Level

Throughout your playthrough of Infinity Nikki, you’ll be earning Mira EXP which progresses your overall Mira Level. You can view your Mira Level in the Pear-Pal menu as well, and you can also view the rewards of all past and future levels. It’s a more consistent way of earning Bling than upgrading your Styling Rank, because every single Mira Level reward includes a several-thousand-Bling reward. At Levels 1-5 you gain 6,000 Bling per level, but towards the end of the track you’ll be earning 10,000-10,500 Bling per level.

Upgrading your Styling Rank

You can upgrade your Styling Rank to earn a nice extra bit of Bling on the side. Your Styling Rank can be found under “Courses” in your Pear-Pal menu, and you upgrade it by doing all sorts of different activities - honestly, everything from defeating enemies to collecting Outfits to taking photos.

Once you’ve earnt enough stars and enough Daily Wishes (you need both), you can increase your Styling Rank and get a new badge - and crucially, every second rank gets you 10,000 Bling as an extra reward. What’s also nice is that the ranks in between also get you Energy Crystals, which you can use to extend your time in the Realm Of Escalation.

Completing games

There are four different types of boardgame mini games you can play in Infinity Nikki, and there are several of each type dotted about Wishfield. The first time you perfectly complete each one, you’ll earn a tidy sum of 10,000-15,000 Bling, which can add up quite nicely over time for early-game players.

Hunting Treasure Esselings

Treasure Esselings are special Esseling enemies that only appear in certain locations, and will try to run from you instead of attack you. It takes three hits to kill, and when it dies it sends out a spray of Bling pickups from the treasure sack it was carrying on its back. Each time you kill a Treasure Esseling, it drops the equivalent of 3,000 Bling.

The nice thing is that Treasure Esselings respawn every day in the same locations all over Miraland. For example, there’s always one behind the large circular tent in west Stoneville that I like to pick on each day. However, this is still very manual labour-intensive, so hunting Treasure Esselings should only be viewed as a minor supplement to your overall Bling income.

Collecting Bling in the world

Among the slowest and most work-intensive methods of earning Bling is simply collecting it wherever you find it in the world. Little Bling pickups are absolutely everywhere in Infinity Nikki, and each pickup earns you 100 Bling. That’s very far from the kinds of dough we want to be raking in, but it does stack up over time. Bling pickups reset each day, so you can learn certain optimum paths on your way to other more important things.

So there we have it - hopefully you’ve learned a few methods of farming literally millions of Bling every day in Infinity Nikki. While you’re here, do also check out our guides on all the Infinity Nikki Whimstar locations and the current Infinity Nikki banner schedule .

All 75 Arc Raiders Blueprints and where to get them

These areas have the highest chance of giving you Blueprints

Image credit:Rock Paper Shotgun/Embark Studios

Looking for more Arc Raiders Blueprints? It’s a special day when you find a Blueprint, as they’re among the most valuable items in Arc Raiders. If you find a Blueprint that you haven’t already found, then you must make sure you hold onto it at all costs, because Blueprints are the key to one of the most important and powerful systems of meta-progression in the game.

This guide aims to be the very best guide on Blueprints you can find, starting with a primer on what exactly they are and how they work in Arc Raiders, before delving into exactly where to get Blueprints and the very best farming spots for you to take in your search.

We’ll also go over how to get Blueprints from other unlikely activities, such as destroying Surveyors and completing specific quests. And you’ll also find the full list of all 75 Blueprints in Arc Raiders on this page (including the newest Blueprints added with the Cold Snap update , such as the Deadline Blueprint and Firework Box Blueprint), giving you all the information you need to expand your own crafting repertoire.

In this guide:

• What are Blueprints in Arc Raiders?
• Full Blueprint list: All crafting recipes
• Where to find Blueprints in Arc Raiders Blueprints obtained from quests Blueprints obtained from Trials Best Blueprint farming locations

What are Blueprints in Arc Raiders?

Blueprints in Arc Raiders are special items which, if you manage to extract with them, you can expend to permanently unlock a new crafting recipe in your Workshop. If you manage to extract from a raid with an Anvil Blueprint, for example, you can unlock the ability to craft your very own Anvil Pistol, as many times as you like (as long as you have the crafting materials).

To use a Blueprint, simply open your Inventory while in the lobby, then right-click on the Blueprint and click “Learn And Consume” . This will permanently unlock the recipe for that item in your Workshop. As of the Stella Montis update, there are allegedly 75 different Blueprints to unlock - although only 68 are confirmed to be in the game so far. You can see all the Blueprints you’ve found and unlocked by going to the Workshop menu, and hitting “R” to bring up the Blueprint screen.

It’s possible to find duplicates of past Blueprints you’ve already unlocked. If you find these, then you can either sell them, or - if you like to play with friends - you can take it into a match and gift it to your friend so they can unlock that recipe for themselves. Another option is to keep hold of them until the time comes to donate them to the Expedition.

Full Blueprint list: All crafting recipes

Below is the full list of all the Blueprints that are currently available to find in Arc Raiders, and the crafting recipe required for each item:

Note: The missing Blueprints in this list likely have not actually been added to the game at the time of writing, because none of the playerbase has managed to find any of them. As they are added to the game, I will update this page with the most relevant information so you know exactly how to get all 75 Arc Raiders Blueprints.

Where to find Blueprints in Arc Raiders

Below is a list of all containers, modifiers, and events which maximise your chances of finding Blueprints:

• Certain quests reward you with specific Blueprints .
• Completing Trials has a high chance of offering Blueprints as rewards.
• Surveyors have a decent chance of dropping Blueprints on death.
• High loot value areas tend to have a greater chance of spawning Blueprints.
• Night Raids and Storms may increase rare Blueprint spawn chances in containers.
• Containers with higher numbers of items may have a higher tendency to spawn Blueprints. As a result, Blue Gate (which has many “large” containers containing multiple items) may give you a higher chance of spawning Blueprints.
• Raider containers (Raider Caches, Weapon Boxes, Medical Bags, Grenade Tubes) have increased Blueprint drop rates. As a result, the Uncovered Caches event gives you a high chance of finding Blueprints.
• Security Lockers have a higher than average chance of containing Blueprints.
• Certain Blueprints only seem to spawn under specific circumstances: Tempest Blueprint only spawns during Night Raid events. Vulcano Blueprint only spawns during Hidden Bunker events. Jupiter and Equaliser Blueprints only spawn during Harvester events.

Raider Caches, Weapon Boxes, and other raider-oriented container types have a good chance of offering Blueprints. |Image credit:Rock Paper Shotgun/Embark Studios

Blueprints have a very low chance of spawning in any container in Arc Raiders, around 1-2% on average. However, there is a higher chance of finding Blueprints in particular container types. Specifically, you can find more Blueprints in Raider containers and security lockers.

Beyond this, if you’re looking for Blueprints you should focus on regions of the map which are marked as having particularly high-value loot. Areas such as the Control Tower in Dam Battlegrounds, the Arrival and Departure Buildings in Spaceport, and Pilgrim’s Peak in Blue Gate all have a better-than-average chance of spawning Blueprints somewhere amongst all their containers. Night Raids and Electromagnetic Storm events also increase the drop chances of certain Blueprints .

In addition to these containers, you can often loot Blueprints from destroyed Surveyors - the largest of the rolling ball ARC. Surveyors are more commonly found on the later maps - Spaceport and Blue Gate - and if one spawns in your match, you’ll likely see it by the blue laser beam that it casts into the sky while “surveying”.

Surveyors are quite well-armoured and will very speedily run away from you once it notices you, but if you can take one down then make sure you loot all its parts for a chance of obtaining certain unusual Blueprints.

Blueprints obtained from quests

One way in which you can get Blueprints is by completing certain quests for the vendors in Speranza. Some quests will reward you with a specific item Blueprint upon completion, so as long as you work through all the quests in Arc Raiders, you are guaranteed those Blueprints.

Here is the full list of all Blueprints you can get from quest rewards:

• Trigger Nade Blueprint: Rewarded after completing “Sparks Fly”.
• Lure Grenade Blueprint: Rewarded after completing “Greasing Her Palms”.
• Burletta Blueprint: Rewarded after completing “Industrial Espionage”.
• Hullcracker Blueprint (and Launcher Ammo Blueprint): Rewarded after completing “The Major’s Footlocker”.

Alas, that’s only 4 Blueprints out of a total of 75 to unlock, so for the vast majority you will need to find them yourself during a raid. If you’re intent on farming Blueprints, then it’s best to equip yourself with cheap gear in case you lose it, but don’t use a free loadout because then you won’t get a safe pocket to stash any new Blueprint you find. No pain in Arc Raiders is sharper than failing to extract with a new Blueprint you’ve been after for a dozen hours already.

One of the best ways to get Blueprints is by hitting three stars on all five Trials every week. |Image credit:Rock Paper Shotgun/Embark Studios

Blueprints obtained from Trials

One of the very best ways to get Blueprints is as rewards for completing Trials in Arc Raiders. Trials are unlocked from Level 15 onwards, and allow you to earn rewards by focusing on certain tasks over the course of several raids. For example, one Trial might task you with dealing damage to Hornets, while another might challenge you to loot Supply Drops.

Trials refresh on a weekly basis, with a new week bringing five new Trials. Each Trial can offer up to three rewards after passing certain score milestones, and it’s possible to receive very high level loot from these reward crates - including Blueprints. So if you want to unlock as many Blueprints as possible, you should make a point of completing as many Trials as possible each week.

Best Blueprint farming locations

The very best way to get Blueprints is to frequent specific areas of the maps which combine high-tier loot pools with the right types of containers to search. Here are my recommendations for where to find Blueprints on every map, so you can always keep the search going for new crafting recipes to unlock.

Dam Battlegrounds

The best places to farm Blueprints on Dam Battlegrounds are the Control Tower, Power Generation Complex, Ruby Residence, and Pale Apartments . The first two regions, despite only being marked on the map as mid-tier loot, contain a phenomenal number of containers to loot. The Control Tower can also contain a couple of high-tier Security Lockers - though of course, you’ll need to have unlocked the Security Breach skill at the end of the Survival tree.

There’s also a lot of reporting amongst the playerbase that the Residential areas in the top-left of the map - Pale Apartments and Ruby Residence - give you a comparatively strong chance of finding Blueprints. Considering their size, there’s a high density of containers to loot in both locations, and they also have the benefit of being fairly out of the way. So you’re more likely to have all the containers to yourself.

Buried City

The best Blueprint farming locations on Buried City are the Santa Maria Houses, Grandioso Apartments, Town Hall, and the various buildings of the New District . Grandioso Apartments has a lower number of containers than the rest, but a high chance of spawning weapon cases - which have good Blueprint drop rates. The others are high-tier loot areas, with plenty of lootable containers - including Security Lockers.

Spaceport

The best places to find Blueprints on Spaceport are the Arrival and Departure Buildings, as well as Control Tower A6 and the Launch Towers . All these areas are labelled as high-value loot regions, and many of them are also very handily connected to one another by the Spaceport wall, which you can use to quickly run from one area to the next. At the tops of most of these buildings you’ll find at least one Security Locker, so this is an excellent farming route for players looking to find Blueprints.

The downside to looting Blueprints on Spaceport is that all these areas are hotly contested, particularly in Duos and Squads. You’ll need to be very focused and fast in order to complete the full farming route.

Blue Gate

Blue Gate tends to have a good chance of dropping Blueprints, potentially because it generally has a high number of containers which can hold lots of items; so there’s a higher chance of a Blueprint spawning in each container. In my experience, the best Blueprint farming spots on Blue Gate are Pilgrim’s Peak, Raider’s Refuge, the Ancient Fort, and the Underground Complex beneath the Warehouse .

All of these areas contain a wealth of containers to loot. Raider’s Refuge has less to loot, but the majority of the containers in and around the Refuge are raider containers, which have a high chance of containing Blueprints - particularly during major events.

Stella Montis

On the whole, Stella Montis seems to have a very low drop rate for Blueprints (though a high chance of dropping other high-tier loot). If you do want to try farming Blueprints on this map, the best places to find Blueprints in Stella Montis are Medical Research, Assembly Workshop, and the Business Center . These areas have the highest density of containers to loot on the map.

In addition to this, the Western Tunnel has a few different Security Lockers to loot, so while there’s very little to loot elsewhere in this area of the map, it’s worth hitting those Security Lockers if you spawn there at the start of a match.

That wraps up this primer on how to get all the Blueprints in Arc Raiders as quickly as possible. With the Expedition system constantly resetting a large number of players’ Blueprints, it’s more important than ever to have the most up-to-date information on where to find all these Blueprints.
