ARC Raiders Forgotten Relics Event Guide:How to Farm 180K+ Gold Fast

The new "Forgotten Relics" and "Convergence Path" events are live, but do you really know the best place to farm? Is the pharmacy still your go-to spot? Why do you search container after container but find zero event trinkets? Don't worry-this guide reveals the truth:there are only TWO buildings on the entire map that are truly worth your time for farming ARC Raiders Items. In just two test runs, I pulled in 182K gold and 776 merits per match-maximum efficiency. Want to know exactly where to go, which containers to loot, and which spots are a complete waste of time? Keep reading-all the answers are right here.

STOP GOING TO THE PHARMACY

Many players instinctively rush to the pharmacy at the Rosa Plaza area because it usually has dense loot containers. However, in this event, it performs poorly. While regular loot is still present, event relic drop rates are extremely low.

After multiple tests, it became clear that drawers and cabinets inside the pharmacy rarely produce event items. If you are still following old habits, you are likely wasting valuable farming time. The conclusion is simple:the pharmacy should no longer be your priority for this event.

THE ONLY TRUE HOTSPOT:SPACE TRAVEL + RESEARCH BUILDING

So where should you go instead?

The answer is very clear:the Space Travel Building and the nearby Research Building. These two locations are the true core farming zones of this event.

Why these two? First, they contain extremely dense lootable containers such as drawers, lockers, desks, and surface objects-all of which are primary spawn points for event relics. Second, many players ignore these buildings in favor of more popular areas, meaning they are often partially untouched and full of loot.

Testing data confirms it:a dedicated run only through these two buildings produced 182.7K gold, 776 event reputation points, and 44.8K XP in a single match. Compared to other routes, this is a massive efficiency gain.

CONTAINERS YOU MUST PRIORITIZE

Knowing where to go is not enough-you also need to know what to search.

Drawers and lockers are the most important sources and consistently drop event relics.

Desks and counters are frequently ignored by players but often contain valuable items placed in plain sight.

Trash bins may seem useless but can surprisingly contain event loot.

Furniture surfaces such as chairs and shelves also occasionally hide items worth picking up.

On the other hand, blue destructible radar containers and industrial crates are not recommended. Testing shows extremely low event drop rates, making them inefficient to loot.

TWO-ROUND FARMING TEST RESULTS

Two different routes were tested for comparison.

First run (exploration route):Starting from Bedtown, visiting multiple locations including the pharmacy and breakthrough rooms, total earnings reached around 175K gold.

Second run (optimized route):Directly rushing to Space Travel Building and Research Building only, fully clearing both areas resulted in 182.7K gold, 776 reputation points, and 44.8K XP.

The conclusion is clear:the more focused your route is, the higher your overall efficiency becomes. Two buildings are enough to outperform half the map.

LOOT MANAGEMENT TIPS

Inventory space is limited, so prioritization is essential.

Always keep high-value items like Golden Boots and Equatorial Sundials, as they have significantly higher value than common items.

Discard low-value items such as seeds, basic attachments, or duplicates without hesitation.

Keys or keycards can be skipped if inventory space is tight and they are not immediately needed.

Rule of thumb:it is better to drop ten low-value items than to miss one high-value relic.

WHO THIS GUIDE IS FOR AND WHY IT MATTERS

For new players, this guide removes confusion and provides a clear farming route from the start.

For efficiency-focused players, it enables fast gold and reputation farming with minimal time waste.

For casual players, it ensures stable rewards without needing to clear the entire map.

FINAL TIPS

Bring a mobility tool such as the Snapshot Manual to quickly travel between the two buildings and reduce downtime. If one area is already looted by other players, immediately switch to the other-both offer equally strong loot density for ARC Raiders Items for sale, so you never waste a run.
