If you’re looking to get the Surge Coil blueprint in ARC Raiders, the Converging Paths Project is where you should focus. It’s a Project tied to the limited-time Forgotten Relics event, where Raiders are tasked to secure a safe passage for Nomads and scavenging for buried treasure across the map. If you want to get your hands on the Surge Coil blueprint or finish the Project, here’s a complete walkthrough guide for ARC Raiders’ Converging Paths.
What is the Converging Paths Project in ARC Raiders?
Converging Paths is a five-stage player project accessible through your Projects tab in the Raider menu. Unlike a single mission, it’s a progressive questline that asks you to become a Relic Hunter. You’ll be scavenging old and buried treasures across multiple maps to build a Display Case back in Speranza. Completing the Project is the only reliable way to get the Surge Coil Blueprint.
All 5 Converging Paths Stages in ARC Raiders
The Converging Paths Project has 5 Stages that you need to complete in order. Make sure you are actively tracking the Project in the menu so that the materials you gather are counted toward your overall progress. Here are all the 5 stages and how to complete them.
Stage 1: Secure Safe Passage
- Objective: You need to deal a total value of 1,200 damage to ARC enemies.
- Where to Look: You can easily rack up this damage by hunting down targets like Wasps or Hornets in the topside maps, specifically around the Swamp area.
- Rewards: 3 Smoke Grenade Traps, 3 Pulse Mines, and 25 Raider Tokens.
Stage 2: Collect Supplies
- Objective: You must deliver three Train Models, two Vintage Steel Wheels, two Air Fresheners, and six ARC Thermo Linings.
- Where to Look: Train Models and Steel Wheels spawn abundantly in topside commercial maps, Air Fresheners are heavily concentrated in the Hydroponic Dome Complex, and Thermo Linings drop from Fireflies or Comets.
- Rewards: 3 Smoke Grenade Traps, 3 Pulse Mines, and 25 Raider Tokens.
Stage 3: Procure Relics
- Objective: You are required to find four Sextants, three Equatorial Sundials, five Metal Brackets, and seven ARC Performance Steel parts.
- Where to Look: The event boosts the drop rates for Sextants and Sundials, while Metal Brackets spawn frequently in Industrial points of interest and Performance Steel drops from heavy hitters like Bastions or Bombardiers.
- Rewards: 3 Blaze Grenade Traps, 3 Jolt Mines, the upgraded Rascal II Rocket Launcher, and 50 Raider Tokens.
Stage 4: Create Emergency Caches
- Objective: Your next scavenger list includes three Tellurions, one Elephant Obelisk, six Light Bulbs, and nine ARC Coolants.
- Where to Look: You should search the Grandioso Apartments in the Buried City for the rare Elephant Obelisk, pry open car hoods anywhere for Light Bulbs, and farm Assessors during the Close Scrutiny map condition for Coolants.
- Rewards: Completing this challenging phase takes you directly to the final, most demanding step of the Project.
Stage 5: Finish the Cabinet of Curiosities
- Objective: The final step requires you to extract 6 Rare (Blue), 3 Epic (Purple), and 2 Legendary (Yellow) Colorful Shoes, along with 10 ARC Synthetic Resins.
- Where to Look: Colorful Shoes can be found lying in plain sight across various residential points of interest, while Synthetic Resin drops heavily from Assessors, Barons, Probes, or Couriers.
- Rewards: Combat Mk. 3 (Flanking) Augment, a Photoelectric Cloak, an improved Bobcat II SMG, and 50 Raider Tokens.
