ARC Raiders is all about scavenging and looting. It requires you to explore the dangerous Topside to do the tasks. Supplies are limited, and every run puts you against both ARC machines and other Raiders. Because of this, managing your ammo becomes very difficult and important. However, Supply Drops can help you restock, but only if you know where and how to get them. In this ARC Raiders Supply Drops guide, we will see how to get them and how to complete the ‘A Better Use’ quest.
How Supply Drops Work in ARC Raiders
Supply Drops don’t appear in the same spot every time, but the method of calling one in is always the same. To get a Supply Drop, you must find the Supply Drop console and interact with it to launch a signal flare.
Half the difficulty is finding the console, and the other half is safely claiming the drop. The flare is bright and loud, so it will usually attract ARC enemies or nearby players.
Once the flare goes up, watch the sky:
- A package attached to a parachute will land where the flare was.
- Go to the package and hold the required button to collect the loot.
- Stay alert, because enemies might show up and attack you while you are looting.
How to Locate Supply Drops
Each map has several spots where Supply Drops can appear, but the game won’t guarantee that a console will spawn there every run. These consoles only become visible when you get near them, so you need to explore carefully.
To spot a console more easily:
- Look for tall, thin antennae.
- They might be on the edges of rooftops or even on the ground level.
- Using binoculars can help from a distance.
