Attention all Arc Raiders enthusiasts! Are you ready to uncover the secrets to acquiring those elusive Rusted Gears? It's time to dive deep into the game's mechanics and explore some strategic locations to boost your chances of success.
Rusted Gears, a highly sought-after item, can be found in various mechanical objects scattered across the game's maps. Think cars, generators, and machinery - they're like hidden treasures waiting to be discovered! Some prime locations include the Buried City's Parking Garage, Vehicle Maintenance in Spaceport, the Warehouse Complex in Blue Gate, and the Loading Bay in Stella Montis.
Now, here's a pro tip: when exploring the Parking Garage, don't forget to check out the Raider Camp at the bottom. Often, you'll find gears tucked away in the generators down there, just waiting to be claimed!
But here's where it gets controversial: gears can also be found in cars right from the start of the game. While these are rarer than those in specific loot areas or high-traffic zones, luck can strike at any moment! You might just stumble upon one while rummaging through car hoods at the beginning of a round. And let's not forget the occasional dead Raider who might be carrying one - although this is quite rare.
Rusted Gears are not just any ordinary item; they're crucial for fully upgrading your benches and items, especially as we near the end of the first Expedition period. And with new materials being introduced, their importance will only grow. Imagine sending your Raider on an Expedition, only to have to restart your progress - Rusted Gears will be your savior in such situations!
