Learn how to find, recycle, and use Wires in Arc Raiders for crafting upgrades and completing the ‘Trash into Treasure’ mission.
The core gameplay loop of Arc Raiders revolves around participating in raids to loot resources and extract in time before dying to the Arc machines or other players. Players can recycle or use these resources to craft and upgrade weapons and advance up the tech tree. Although only a green rarity (uncommon) resource, Wires are surprisingly hard to find if you don’t know their sources.
The best way to get Wires in Arc Raiders is to recycle Rare electrical and mechanical components. To check what an item provides on recycling, simply select it in your inventory to see the output of its salvage. Electrical components and junk yield the highest quantity of Wires upon being recycled, and your best bet is to find Fried Motherboards by looting the server rooms of the Technological area.
