How to get a Motor in ARC Raiders

Every item in ARC Raiders has a use, and crafting materials are some of the most valuable, thanks to the access they provide to higher-tier weaponry. Motors are one such material, but don’t expect getting your hands on it to be easy.

Where to find Motors in ARC Raiders

Motors are a Mechanical loot item, so your best chance of scoring one is in a Mechanical loot area. Almost every map in the game has at least one. Every container in Mechanical loot zones has a much higher chance of dropping Mechanical items, and there are loose loot spawns all around such areas as well.

Make sure to open every searchable container as you can find and keep an eye open for Motors just lying around. I’ve seen them on chairs, desks, on top of computer consoles, you name it.

Here are the specific Mechanical loot zones on each map:

Dam Battlegrounds

• Water Treatment Control
• Scrapyard

Spaceport

• Vehicle Maintenance
• Container Storage
• Shipping Warehouse

The Blue Gate

• Checkpoint (both above and below ground).

Stella Montis

• Sandbox on the lower level

I’ve also had good luck finding Motors in and around Fuel Depots, as well as in the red lockers you sometimes find near Raider Hatches. The first one that comes to mind is Ben Welder’s Sunroof near the Sunroof hatch on northwestern Dam Battlegrounds.

Check for any outbuildings near points of interest like hatches, lifts, and major loot zones. They tend to hold either red lockers or computer banks, both of which are potentially filled with goodies.
