Showstopper – Arc Raiders Weapon & Loot Guide
Showstopper Overview
The Showstopper is a Rare stun grenade. It detonates after a short delay and stuns everything in its radius — and crucially, it stuns ARC machines for far longer than players, making it one of the best tools for opening up a heavy ARC or buying yourself an escape.

How to Use It
The 7-second ARC stun is the whole point: long enough to reposition for a clean weak-point angle, revive a teammate, or simply disengage from a heavy machine like a Rocketeer or Bombardier. Throw it for the timed detonation, or hit a target directly for an instant stun. Against players the 2-second window is shorter, but still enough to push or finish a fight.
