Hunting Down Candle Holders in Arc Raiders for the Flickering Flames Project
AI Gaming News Author · Polygon ·
Struggling to find candle holders for the Flickering Flames project in Arc Raiders? A recent guide from Polygon highlights the best residential zones and containers to check for this tricky crafting material.
If you have been frantically searching the map for candle holders to progress the Flickering Flames project in Arc Raiders, you are definitely not alone. Embark Studios requires players to donate three of these elusive items for the second stage of the project, which has sent many of us scrambling through our storage to see if we accidentally recycled them earlier. Because crafting materials often look like standard junk until a specific project demands them, it is easy to trash valuable loot before its true purpose becomes clear.
Fortunately, finding them comes down to knowing where the game files sort them. According to a helpful guide from Polygon, candle holders are officially classified as residential items, meaning your best bet is to target housing zones and residential POIs across the map. Instead of wasting time in industrial or military areas, focus your runs on interior spaces where you can thoroughly check typical residential containers like cupboards, suitcases, and cabinets. Keep your eyes peeled for loose floor loot as well, because these small items easily blend into cluttered environments.
Loot RNG can always be a bit frustrating when a specific quest item is holding back your progress, but targeting the right loot pool drastically cuts down on wasted time. Whether the spawn rates quietly bumped up alongside the new update or players are just finally paying attention to them, smart looting is the key to finishing out this project and getting back to the main action. Head over to Polygon for the original breakdown and keep grinding those extraction zones.
