Arc Raiders just knocked 2 million coins off the price of the new Expedition Vault slots because nobody was buying them
The latest Arc Raiders patch addresses how much you're paying to stash items for the Expedition. Now, the pricing doesn't stack, making it easier to put more of your favorite loot away once your character takes their caravan off into the great unknown.
In Arc Raiders, as you're likely aware, Ermal offers storage in the form of the Expedition Vault, for items you'd like your next character to access once this one goes. Previously, the five tiers increased in price the higher you went up, but Embark's changed it following insight from players - likely the part where people weren't investing due to how expnesive it was.
"After analyzing data and the early feedback since Ermal appeared in Speranza, we are adjusting the Expedition Vault pricing this week to encourage more trading," Embark says in the patch notes. "Tier one price will remain the same and all following levels will cost 200.000."

There are five tiers, and they went up in increments of 200,000, making the top a cool one million, and the whole lot costing someone two million to buy. Now, it's a fraction of that - a good alteration in theory, although players are skeptical.
"The expedition slots being priced flat is a bad change," says one commenter on Reddit, who suggests pricing should go up in 50,000 intervals. "The total price for all of them would remain the same (one million), but the early ones should be less expensive to make them at least somewhat realistic for casuals while keeping the later ones more expensive for the hardcore players."
Another fan on Reddit comments that it doesn't fix wider problems around the trader's presence. "The Trader was meant to give purpose to loot, as since the expedition changed stash value has no purpose," the player writes. "Instead it introduced a grind for specific materials most players wouldn't hoard in the first place, as all arc materials stack very poorly in the stash."
That's a deeper problem to handle, but likely something Embark is aware of. At least for now, players can make use of vaulting for cheaper.
