Dolabra – Arc Raiders Legendary Energy Shotgun Guide
Dolabra Overview
The Dolabra is a Legendary, experimental energy shotgun that runs on Energy Clips — and it’s really two weapons in one. From the hip it fires a wide, short-range electric blast for crowd control; aimed down sights it focuses into a medium-range heat/laser beam that punches through heavy ARC armor. Strong armor penetration plus a 50-damage hipfire hit make it a genuine anti-machine specialist.

How to Get the Dolabra
- Blueprint. The Dolabra Blueprint is found in the ARC Assessor.
- Craft it. Requires Gunsmith 3 and the blueprint: 3× Shredder Gyro + 3× Magnetic Accelerator + 2× Vaporizer Regulator.
Two of its ingredients come from killing ARC: Shredder Gyros from Shredders and Vaporizer Regulators from Vaporizers, so plan a farm before you craft.
Upgrades
The Dolabra cannot be upgraded. Like other Legendary energy weapons it can be repaired or recycled, but there are no upgrade tiers.
How It Plays
Use the two modes deliberately: hipfire to delete crowds, lighter ARC, and players who close the distance; ADS to drill the armor on a Bastion, Bombardier, or boss from range. The 1.0x headshot multiplier means it isn’t a precision headshot weapon — lean on its raw blast damage and armor penetration instead.
