In ARC Raiders you currently need lemons and apricots to complete quests and build items, but where exactly can you find the fruits? We’ll show you what to look out for.
Where can I quickly find lemons and apricots? If you want to collect fruits quickly and reliably, you should visit the second map “Buried City” and advance to the center. Near the well, there are at least 2 small fruit trees that you can shake to get fruits. The fruits will then fall to the ground, and you can pick them up.



So you can get at least 1 lemon and 1 apricot – sometimes more will drop, but it depends on your luck. The Blue Gate also offers many trees at the olive farm, including lemon trees. You can also find more fruit trees in front of the Grandioso Apartments in the large pond in the Buried City or on the small islands in the Red Sea of the Dam Battlefields.
Other methods to get fruits are:
- Search through houses
- Scour swamps with trees and shrubs marked with the “Nature” symbol
- Visit locations marked with the world event “Lush”
- (Chances of resources from nature are increased)
What do I need the fruits for? All Raiders seek these fruits because of the helpful rooster “Scrappy”. This rooster can be trained to gather even more supplies. You need the following amounts for the upgrades:
- Scrappy – Level 2 -> Level 3
- Apricots 3x
- Lemon 3x
- Scrappy – Level 4 -> Level 5
- 12x Apricots
- 12x Mushrooms
- 3x Ultra-Comfortable Pillows
Since many players like to rush in, it won’t be an easy task for you. Therefore, we recommend spawning solo in a round of the Buried City, putting your weapons away, and quickly checking the trees.
Then pick all the fruits you can as quickly as possible and immediately sprint to the next extraction point to escape. However, empty your loadout first so you don’t lose all your strong items in case of a defeat or ambush. With this tactic, we were able to farm fruits in less than 2 minutes.
