How to Complete Arc Raiders Converging Paths Project
Arc Raiders players got a surprise with the latest update, introducing a new player project called Converging Paths. This event runs from June 16 to July 27 and works alongside the Forgotten Relics event. The goal is to donate new trinkets to build a display stand for them. While it's a limited-time event, it's a great way to earn rewards and showcase your collection.
The Converging Paths project consists of six stages. Unlike other projects, it starts and ends with a simple quest objective. To make the most of it, save your mine and trap rewards for the final stage. You'll also need to gather various new trinket items, which are essential for the Forgotten Relics event. These items are commonly found in Residential or Commercial areas, particularly in shelves, cupboards, and drawers. You can check locations like Grandioso Apartments, Santa Maria Houses, and the Plazas in Buried City. Additionally, look inside chimneys during the Bird City event for more trinkets.
Stage 1: Secure Safe Passage
For the first stage, you need to deal 1,200 damage to Arc enemies in the Swamp, located on the west side of the Dam Battlegrounds. This can be done anywhere between South Swamp Outpost and the Hydroponic Dome Complex. The area is filled with various Arc machines like Rocketeers.
A quick way to complete this is by using the Close Scrutiny map condition, which spawns waves of bots for you to fight. The rewards for this stage include 3x Pulse Mine, 3x Lure Grenade Trap, and 25x Raider Tokens.
Stage 2: Collect Supplies
From this point on, the project involves collecting and donating items, a familiar mechanic in player projects. The required items for this stage include 3x Train Model, 2x Vintage Steering Wheel, and 2x Air Freshener. These can be found in Residential, Commercial, and Mechanical areas, particularly in cupboards, shelves, and drawers.
You'll also need to gather 9x Arc Thermo Lining, a rare material obtained by looting mid-tier Arcs like Comets, Fireballs, Pops, Snitch, Tick, Turrets, and Wasps. Completing this stage rewards you with 3x Smoke Grenade Trap, 3x Explosive Mine, and 25x Raider Coins.
Stage 3: Procure Relics
For this stage, you need to collect 4x Sextant, 3x Equatorial Sundial, 5x Metal Brackets, and 7x Arc Performance Steel. The Sextant and Equatorial Sundial can be found in Residential and Commercial areas, while Metal Brackets and Arc Performance Steel are obtained by looting high-tier Arcs such as Bastions, Bombardiers, Leapers, Sentinels, Hornets, and Surveyors.
Completing this stage rewards you with 3x Blaze Grenade Trap, 3x Jolt Mine, 1x Rascal II, and 50x Raider Coins.
Stage 4: Create Emergency Caches
In this stage, you'll need to gather 3x Tellurion, 1x Elephant Obelisk, 6x Light Bulb, and 9x Arc Coolant. The Tellurion and Elephant Obelisk are rare and legendary trinkets, respectively, found in Residential and Commercial areas. Light Bulbs are best found under the hood of cars, such as those near the Electrical Substation and Generator Hall on Dam Battlegrounds.
The Arc Coolant can be obtained by looting mid-tier Arcs like Comets, Fireballs, Pops, Sentinels, and Surveyors. Rewards for this stage include 3x Surge Coil, 3x Blaze Grenade Trap, 3x Explosive Mine, and 50x Raider Coins.
Stage 5: Finish the Cabinet of Curiosities
This stage requires 6x Colorful Shoes (rare), 3x Colorful Shoes (epic), 2x Colorful Shoes (legendary), and 10x Arc Synthetic Resin. These items can be found in Residential and Commercial areas. The Arc Synthetic Resin is a rare material obtained by looting various Arcs, especially tougher ones like Leapers, Shredders, and Queens.
Completing this stage rewards you with 1x Combat MK.3 (Flanking) augment, 1x Photoelectric Cloak, 1x Bobcat II, and 50x Raider Coins.
Stage 6: Use Nomad Tactics to Fight Arc
The final stage involves using mines and traps like Blaze Grenade Traps, Pulse Mines, Jolt Mines, Explosive Mines, and Surge Coils to deal damage to Arc enemies. You'll have earned many of these items from the previous stages, so now is the time to put them to use. This can be done on any map and in any mode.
The rewards for completing the Converging Paths project include a Sextant backpack charm, Red Black Saltwalker outfit color, 100x Raider Coins, and the Surge Coil blueprint.
