Arc Raiders has a randomized loot system, so there is no definitive spot for you to find the Cracked Bioscanner in the game. However, there have been reports of sites that have consistently spawned the crafting item for many players.

To find the Cracked Bioscanner in Arc Raiders, it is recommended to visit healthcare zones or areas that have a medical theme; places such as the Hospital building in the Buried City, or the Pharmacy in Dam Battlegrounds.

In addition to that, you can also scavenger and loot medical storage and enemy outposts, as they give you good chances of finding the Cracked Bioscanner with more consistency than others. Ideally, any clinics, enemy areas, or medical-themed places in high-risk, aka yellow or red zones, generally spawn the highest numbers of the item you want.

If you are playing with friends or other players, then you can try splitting up to cover more ground in a short period and increase your chances of finding the crafting material. Solo players will have to do all the work themselves, so it can take them a bit longer.

How To Use the Cracked Bioscanner in Arc Raiders

Once you have obtained the Cracked Bioscanner in Arc Raiders, you can use it in several ways. First, you can use it as a crafting material to upgrade various stations, like the workshop or medical lab. For example, you will need at least two Cracked Bioscanners if you want to upgrade the Medical Lab or some of the other stations in the game.

Other than that, if you have excess Cracked Bioscanners or have no use for the ones in your storage, then you can recycle them to get 3x Rubber Parts and 5x Battery. Both items can be quite useful for gear as well as base upgrades. So, we recommend farming the item as soon as possible for better healing and crafting opportunities.
