Arc Raiders require players to gather many different materials, which can feel overwhelming. While you’ll find plenty of uncommon and rare items during your missions, the Epic materials—marked in pink—are what you should focus on. These are the second-rarest items in the game and are essential for crafting some of the most powerful gear.
Magnetic Accelerators are one of these valuable Epic items. If you’re planning to tackle the more challenging parts of Arc Raiders, it’s a good idea to collect a good supply of them. Here are the best ways to obtain Magnetic Accelerators during your explorations.
### Where to Find Magnetic Accelerators
When it comes to Magnetic Accelerators, they aren’t easy to find during regular looting. Sometimes, you might come across them, but that’s not something you can rely on. There is one main location, the Spaceport’s Rocket Assembly, that has an especially high chance of dropping Epic materials like Magnetic Accelerators across all four maps.
Specifically, a group of red lockers on the northwest side of the large hangar tend to have a very high chance of containing these materials. While it’s not guaranteed that you’ll get one each time, I’ve consistently found Magnetic Accelerators and other Epic items in these lockers when I visit and they haven’t been looted yet.
The most reliable way to get Magnetic Accelerators is by participating in certain activities, world events, or special raid types. These options reward better loot than just exploring aimlessly. You still might find Magnetic Accelerators through scavenging, but for a consistent supply, I recommend engaging in Night or Electromagnetic Storm Raids, as these double loot quality and make collecting Epic items much easier.
### How to Craft Magnetic Accelerators
If you prefer a safer route, you can craft Magnetic Accelerators once your Refiner reaches Level 3. This process requires gathering rarer materials, such as Motors and Bombardier Cells, but it becomes simpler once you’ve leveled up.
To craft a Magnetic Accelerator, you’ll need:
– 2 Advanced Mechanical Components
– 2 ARC Motion Cores
Currently, Magnetic Accelerators cannot be bought from traders. Upgrading your Refiner is a worthwhile investment, especially since these items are needed for crafting nearly all the powerful Epic weapons in the game. It’s a good idea to stockpile a supply for tougher endgame battles, like fighting the ARC Queen.
