The demand for certain items in ARC Raiders has gone up ever since the Cold Snap update launched, and it’s essentially due to do with the Flickering Flames project.
The Flickering Flames project is a new event where you have to complete five different levels. Every level requires you to commit certain items that you can find from the raids. One such item is the Film Reel, and this guide will help you find it easily.
Best locations to find Film Reels in ARC Raiders
You’ll need one Film Reel to complete the third level of the Flickering Flames project. Doing so will also net you 1000 Creds that can be put to good use. To find a Film Reel, you’ll want to look for areas that are marked as Residential on any map.
The best spot should be the Village on the Blue Gate map. This is where I had found it earlier during the ARC Raiders‘ launch week. However, I found it at the Grandioso Apartments after the project went live. The Buried City map has plenty of great Residential areas that you can loot. You can also find other items like the Frying Pan from this map.
Ultimately, it will all boil down to your luck, as the items don’t have a fixed location. If you’re on the Dam Battlegrounds map, you can try looking in the Ruby Residence buildings in the northwestern part of the map. This building also spawns plenty of keys that will allow you to access locked areas.
Once you have found the Film Reel, you can commit it from the project section of the Raider tab. The Film Reel is required to clear level 3, so you’ll need to clear the first two levels. However, there’s plenty of time left for you to finish the project before it expires in January.
