Both Lemons and Apricots are classified as natural resources found in lush areas. The Hydroponic Dome Complex, marked with a leaf icon at the northern edge of the swamp, is an excellent place to gather these resources.

Required Items:

6× Prickly Pears
6× Olives
1× Cat Bed

You can gather Prickly Pears and Olives from the same nature zones previously accessed, such as the Hydroponic Dome or forest regions. However, the Cat Bed is crucial, categorized under commercial and residential items—it’s worth 1000 credits and players often sell it unknowingly. Look for it in locations like the Testing Annex in the southeast or the Research and Admin Building in the southern-central part of the map.

To find Apricots and Mushrooms, return to the nature-rich areas such as the Hydroponic Dome Complex. As for the Very Comfortable Pillows, which are typically valued at 2000 credits apiece, they can be found across residential and commercial zones similar to where you might find the Cat Bed. Collecting these items unlocks Scrappy’s ultimate form!

Remember, Scrappy actively scavenges items during each play session, regardless of the outcome, so training him is a worthwhile investment to maximize resource gathering in ARC Raiders. By advancing his tier, you enhance his automated collection capabilities, enabling you to concentrate on pursuing rare, high-value loot instead of focusing on obtaining basic materials.
