When Is The Lush Blooms Map Modifier Available in ARC Raiders

Lush Blooms can be triggered at random in the Blue Gate, Spaceport, Buried City, or Dam Battlegrounds map of ARC Raiders and during the 45 minutes this event lasts, all Raiders deploying in these maps will enjoy increased gains when looting Nature items.

This means Plants, Trees, and Containers will yield more Nature products such as: Lemons, Apricot s, Seeds, Agave, and so on. But the specifics on how to benefit from this increase are sometimes confusing for players.

First and foremost: Not all containers grant Nature products. Only Wicker Baskets, which are extremely hard to see since they're small, and their light brown color makes them blend with the ground.

Baskets are found around the areas marked as Nature POIs, and, like most of the Loot that drops in ARC Raiders, it has higher chances to appear in areas related to their categories.

  • In Dam Battlegrounds, the ideal POI to farm during Lush Blooms is the Hydroponic Dome Complex.
  • Dam Battlegrounds also has various Apricot farming spots in the islands scattered across the Red Lake.
  • In Blue Gate, the best spot to get more yield during this map modifier is the Olive Grove.
  • The next best hotspot in Blue Gate is Traper's Glade.

Every time players interact with trees or plants during a Lush Blooms event, there's a chance to receive extra Fruits, Mushrooms, or Plants. Trees might drop two or three units instead of only one per interaction. Players should take note that Trees require players to collect the fruits from the ground after interacting with the plant, so it's two interactions per collection.

Lush Blooms are the perfect opportunity for players to complete one of the requirements of Step 5/6 of the Expeditions Project, which requires them to gather 150000 worth of Supplies (among other things).

Olives are one of the many items players want to seek in ARC Raiders.

Plants, seeds, fruits, and other Nature Products are considered Supplies, as well as all Trinkets and Blueprints. Ideally, players want to invest most of their time farming profitable loot, and Nature Products are certainly some of the most profitable drop items in the game.

A stack of 10 Apricots can be sold for 6400 Coins, and players might be able to get up to 2 Stacks per run in Dam Battlegrounds in a regular map situation. When Lush Blooms is active, this amount doubles. So, players should take every chance to participate during this map modifier event to maximize their gains.
