Candleberries are a new seasonal resource in ARC Raiders. These items are tied to special event challenges and rewards, so knowing where and how to find them can save you a lot of time. In this guide, we’ll tell you all the ways you can get Candleberries, including the best locations to search and easier methods to get them.
All Ways to Find Candleberries
Candleberries grow on shrubs in outdoor vegetation areas. They are visible during the time the Cold Snap weather modifier is on. Currently, the Battlegrounds map is the best place to farm candleberries. Go to the western vegetation area close to the South Swamp Outpost on the Dam Battlegrounds map. This place has a lot of open green area, and candleberry bushes often spawn there during the Cold Snap event.
Whenever greenery or bushes appear on a Cold Snap map, it’s worth checking them. Candleberries are quite likely to be there often. Even if the area is active, it is still important to know that the spawns are random, so sometimes there will be a lot, and at other times there will be none at all.
If you’re playing on the Space Port map, be sure to visit the Staff Parking spot. This is one of the places where Candleberry bushes can spawn, and you can harvest them directly from the plants. While you’re there, it’s also worth opening any Raider caches you come across, as Candleberries can sometimes be found inside those too.
In case you want to earn them without searching bushes, there’s an easier option. Candleberries can be earned from the Flickering Flames rewards track. When you earn 2,400 Merits, you’ll unlock your first reward of 20 Candleberries.
Candleberries in ARC Raiders
Candleberries are a completely new resource that has been introduced along with the Cold Snap update. These berries are primarily for the Candleberry Banquet Project, which is a part of the seasonal event of Flickering Flames. By harvesting and submitting candleberries, you will be able to get rewards that include Raider Tokens, skins, merits, and various helpful items.
