Enhancing your base’s capabilities early on involves focusing on the Workshop, requiring scarce components like corroded cogs. Tracking down these parts proves challenging due to their rarity – we outline optimal strategies below.

Acquiring mechanical components in ARC Raiders

Corroded mechanisms belong to industrial-grade materials, obtainable through factory district exploration. Even with this knowledge, success isn’t guaranteed. After extensive scavenging routes and numerous container searches, securing even single components remains difficult.

Key industrial zones for potential discoveries:

Orbital Launch Facility

• Rocket Assembly Bay
• Cargo Storage Area
• Mechanical Maintenance Zone

The Azure Passage

• Underground Transit Network beneath northeastern structures
• Ruined Machinery Site
• Storage Depot Cluster

Hydroelectric Combat Zone

• Water Purification Center
• Agricultural Dome Network
• Energy Production Plant
• Central Operations Bridge

Prioritize these container types within these areas:

• Power Distribution Units
• Storage Compartments
• Reinforced Metallic Crates

While office furniture might yield results, these typically hold domestic/commercial goods regardless of location type.

Multiple expeditions are likely necessary to gather sufficient components for upgrading fabrication stations. Persistence pays off – varied schematics and resource stockpiling will prove valuable for future needs.
