Finding Candleberries in Arc Raiders is proving to be a challenging task, despite their classification as a foragable fruit. This hunt echoes the earlier search for lemons and apricots needed for Scrappy’s upgrades. Players are currently seen navigating the snowy landscapes, searching bushes for this elusive berry, all while facing the harsh elements that can be deadly if precautions aren’t taken.
To successfully collect Candleberries, players should keep a few strategies in mind. The primary method involves gathering them from specific bushes adorned with red berries. These bushes can be found during the Cold Snap map condition, particularly in areas lush with vegetation, such as the swamp in Dam Battlegrounds and the western parts of the Blue Gate map.
In addition to foraging, players can also earn Candleberries through the Gathering Candleberries reward track, which operates similarly to previous events like Stella Montis. By accumulating experience points (XP) in the game, players can convert them into merits that progress their position on the reward track, potentially earning up to 180 Candleberries in the process.
Moreover, players can increase their merits by contributing resources to the Candleberry Banquet project. Engaging in this project not only facilitates access to the berries but also aligns with the event rewards, making it easier to gather the necessary amounts during Cold Snap runs.
With a little strategy and determination, players can effectively collect Candleberries while enjoying the gameplay experience, making this challenge an exciting addition to Arc Raiders.
