Locating Candleberries in Arc Raiders

Candleberries have been introduced in Arc Raiders as part of the Cold Snap, Candlelight, and Flickering Flames events. These new nature items are key to unlocking rewards during this limited-time holiday update. However, their availability is tied to specific playtimes, and their purpose may not be immediately clear. Here’s a breakdown of everything you need to know about Candleberries in Arc Raiders and their role in the current season.

You can collect Candleberries during the new Cold Snap event in one of two ways:

Keep in mind that the maps will feature the new Frostbite effect, so be ready to tackle that challenge.

Currently, Candleberries are primarily used for the Candleberry Banquet and Candlelight event, serving as crucial donations for advancing through the five-part project. You can also recycle them into 2x Assorted Seeds, but this offers minimal benefit and is only worth considering if you have no other use for them.

The real value of collecting Candleberries lies in completing project stages, which rewards you with significant merits for the Gathering Candleberries progression chain. This chain offers various rewards, including cosmetics, currency, in-game emotes, and more.
