The Cold Snap update has brought a wintry twist to Arc Raiders, adding snow and freezing conditions. It’s a perfect time to dive into the Flickering Flames project. This event requires you to collect Candleberries, special berries needed to complete various tasks. Each time you collect what you need, you earn rewards like Raider Tokens and Merits, which can enhance your gameplay experience.
So, where can you find these elusive Candleberries? They only appear during the Cold Snap conditions, available on most maps—except Stella Montis. Explore areas known for other fruits, often found in Nature regions marked by a leaf icon on the map. Candleberries grow on striking red bushes, so they stand out against the snow. However, bear in mind that each bush usually yields just one berry, making the hunt a bit tricky.
Here’s a tip: participating in the Gathering Candleberries event can really boost your collection. Completing the reward track can net you 180 Candleberries just for playing and gaining XP, which turns into Merits.
Now, onto the Flickering Flames project. It requires a variety of items, mostly found in common loot spots like drawers, cabinets, and cars. Here’s what you’ll need:
