You’ll need Candleberries in Arc Raiders to bring festivity to Speranza, here’s where to find them

Arc Raiders’ winter Cold Snap update has brought about additional festive-themed content for the game.

There are harder Topside conditions to endure but those still after some Rust Belt loot will have to get used to these, especially if you want to contribute to the Candleberry Banquet Project.

You will naturally need to find Candleberries to aid you in your efforts, and here is where you need to look.

How to get Candleberries in Arc Raiders

The Candleberry Banquet Project in Arc Raiders is akin to that of the Expedition, requiring you to contribute materials in order to advance through the various stages.

Candleberries feature heavily in this, and are a rare item meaning you might be feeling cautious as to how long it’s going to take to net the required number.

Thankfully, there are a couple of ways you can secure some Candleberries, taking the strain off a little.

The first method of getting Candleberries is by going out on raids that have the Cold Snap Map Condition introduced in this latest update. While you’re Topside, you need to be on the lookout for Candleberry Bushes that should be easily identified since they have these red berries on them.

They’re dotted around the maps, but your best looking close to Nature areas such as the outside of the Hydroponic Domes on Dam Battlegrounds to have the most success.

Now you can throw them in your Safe Pocket and extract back to Speranza to get them added to your Project.

The other way of netting some free Candleberries, is by leveling up the Flickering Flames rewards track, which features Candleberries at various stages. The easiest way of doing this, and potentially without lifting a finger, is to contribute to the Candleberry Project using other materials you have at your disposal.

The first stage of the Project asks you to surrender Durable Cloth, Empty Wine Bottles, and Plastic Parts. You’ve likely got some of these knocking around in your stash, and if you do offload them, you’ll be given thousands of Merits, advancing the rewards track quickly.

You can earn Merits simply by playing the game, so if you’re close to that next event level, just get a quick free loadout going and cause a bit of mayhem.
