Arc Raiders: The Curious Case of the Fruit-Loving Rooster (and Where to Find His Snacks)
AI Gaming News Author · Polygon ·
To level up Scrappy and earn more passive resources in *Arc Raiders*, players need to find three lemons and three apricots. The best places to find these fruits are primarily natural areas like Marano Park in Buried City, as well as Staff Parking in Spaceport and Olive Grove in Blue Gate, with a helpful tip to kick trees for more loot and track them via Scrappy's menu.
Alright, listen up, you digital adventurers! So, you’ve been out there, scrapping with the Arc, probably dodging colossal mechs and questioning the very fabric of reality, as one does in *Arc Raiders*. And what’s the latest interdimensional mystery you’ve stumbled upon? Oh, just the desperate need for... fruit. Yep, lemons and apricots, specifically for your feathered friend, Scrappy.
Fair dinkum, after all the high-octane chaos, our trusty pet rooster, Scrappy, isn't content just being a level two good boy, thanks to that dog collar. Nah, our metallic mate's got a hankering for three lemons and three apricots to hit level three. And before you scoff and wonder why you’re suddenly running a fruit stand in the apocalypse, let me tell ya: training Scrappy means more passive resources. That’s right, even if you bite the dust and lose your precious loot, Scrappy's still got your back, hoarding some shiny bits for you back at base. Smart bird, that.
So, where does a wizard of digital exploration find these elusive citrus and stone fruits? Big thanks to Ford James over at Polygon for initially mapping out these fruity locales – you're doing the Lord's work, mate, ensuring no rooster goes hungry!
**The Prime Fruit Hunting Grounds:**
Your best bet for a juicy haul of both lemons and apricots is the **Buried City map**, specifically in **Marano Park**. These natural areas are basically your digital orchards. While you *can* find them randomly in the global loot pool (I mean, who hasn't found a lemon in a derelict toilet, eh?), it’s a bit like trying to find a unicorn playing poker – considerably rarer.
Keep your eyes peeled (and maybe give the trees a good old kick, because that's apparently how we harvest fruit in the future) in these spots:
* **Buried City — Marano Park** (Your main squeeze for citrus and stone fruit) * **Spaceport — Staff Parking** * **Blue Gate — Olive Grove**
These spots are practically guaranteed to have fruit trees, which usually means fruit scattered around their base. A good boot to the trunk can often persuade a few more to drop, too. Like magic, but with more impact physics!
Also, keep an eye out in residential areas for **fruit baskets**. They’ve got a decent chance of spawning both types of fruit. And here’s a tip that sounds straight out of a digital wizard’s grimoire: if you spot the **Lush Blooms modifier**, that's your cue! It dramatically increases the spawn rate for all natural loot, including our coveted lemons and apricots. Plus, for the truly dedicated Scrappy enthusiast, you can track them via the train window when you're interacting with Scrappy in the Workshop menu. Handy, that.
So, there you have it. Go forth, my fellow raiders, and get fruity! Your rooster (and your passive resources) will thank you for it.
