How to get Fertilizer in Arc Raiders
Arc Raiders’ Riven Tides update introduced the Avian Alarm project, which requires players to gather multiple resources that previously had limited utility. The update revitalizes several materials—Fertilizer, Moss, and Water Filters—that were once only used for recycling or selling.
Players must collect Fertilizer (10 units), Agave (8 units), Red Coral Jewelry (3 units), Moss, Water Filters (3 units), and Turbine Compressors to complete the project. Each resource spawns in specific locations across the game’s maps. Fertilizer is best found in plant beds within the Hydroponic Dome Complex on Dam Battlegrounds or Village on Blue Gate. Red Coral Jewelry can be located in drawers, cabinets, and shelves in Buried City’s residential and commercial areas, including Grandioso Apartments, Santa Maria Houses, Plaza Rosa, and Piazza Arbusto.
Agave grows on spikey plants along the hills bordering the Dried Riverbed in Riven Tides, which stretches from the far south of the map near the Port Authority Building northward. Moss similarly spawns along branches throughout this same Dried Riverbed location. Water Filters appear as loose items and in containers in Industrial areas, with breachable metal crates providing the most reliable source.
The update also introduced the formidable Arc Turbine enemy, which drops Turbine Compressors but poses significant difficulty due to mines and lightning attacks. However, players can obtain Turbine Compressors from Arc Couriers, allowing them to bypass the dangerous encounter entirely. This demonstrates how Arc Raiders continues evolving its live-service experience by introducing new projects that utilize previously dormant inventory items and offer players strategic choices in gathering required materials.
