Arc Raiders: How To Get Synthesized Fuel

In Arc Raiders, Synthesized Fuel functions as a valuable resource found in elevated zones, essential for boosting the Explosives Workshop Station from tier 1 to tier 2. When destroyed, it can ignite, causing minor explosions. The ‘Exodus’ label in its description hints at elusive spawn points across the game world.

Applying Synthesized Fuel in Gameplay

Upgrading the Explosives Station to Level 2 demands:

  • 3 units of Synthesized Fuel
  • 5 units of Basic Explosives
  • 5 units of Detonation Triggers

Basic Explosives are refined from Chemicals or scavenged from Industrial zones. Detonation Triggers drop frequently from defeated mechanical enemies. Once gathered, visit the Workshop’s Explosives Station to unlock Blaze Grenade crafting.

Excess fuel can be dismantled for 1x Oil + 1x Plastic Components, critical for advancing Workshop structures like the Refiner and Gunsmith.


Salvaging Rocket Thrusters

Rocket Thrusters share the Exodus designation with Synthesized Fuel. Salvaging one yields 2 units of Synthesized Fuel alongside Metal Components, offering an alternative acquisition path.

Exodus Zone Strategies

Target Spaceport’s Rocket Assembly area during raids for higher fuel spawn rates. Exodus-labeled containers here periodically contain this resource.
