While you're risking your life in raids, your mechanical rooster Scrappy is quietly working back at base. This invaluable companion generates essential crafting materials - but did you know you can dramatically increase his output? Upgrading Scrappy from his basic Fledgling state to the mighty Master Hoarder level transforms your resource economy. Here's how to find every rare item needed for maximum efficiency.
Essential Scrappy Upgrade Materials Checklist
Level 2 (Forager): 1x Dog Collar
Level 3 (Scavenger): 3x Lemon, 3x Apricot
Level 4 (Treasure Hunter): 6x Prickly Pear, 6x Olives, 1x Cat Bed
Level 5 (Master Hoarder): 12x Mushroom, 12x Apricot, 3x Very Comfortable Pillow
High-Risk, High-Reward Locations
The Buried City holds many secrets for determined raiders. For the elusive Dog Collar, search drawers inside cabinets at Town Hall and Plaza Rosa. Pro tip: night raids significantly increase spawn rates for lootable furniture.
Olive Grove (Blue Gate map) is your one-stop shop for fruits. Kick trees to collect Apricots, Lemons, and Olives - but be warned, this beautiful orchard is a PvP death trap. Travel light and use Safe Pockets to protect your harvest.
The Mushroom Hunt Challenge
Finding Mushrooms requires patience and knowledge. Check these reliable spawn points:
Hydroponic Dome Complex in Swamp
Tree trunks near the ARC wreck in Scrap Yard
Forests surrounding Dam Battlegrounds
The Lush Blooms map modifier dramatically improves your chances for both mushrooms and Prickly Pears (found near cacti on Buried City).
Residential Loot Runs
For comfort items like Cat Beds and Very Comfortable Pillows, hit residential zones. Prioritize these locations:
Village (less contested than Grandioso Apartments)
Buildings beneath Red Tower
Pharmacy upper floors at Plaza Rosa
Remember to search open shelves for Cat Beds and thoroughly loot containers for pillows.
If the grind for these materials feels overwhelming, you can buy ARC Raiders items at MMOMAX to fast-track your Scrappy upgrades and get back to the action faster.
Progression Strategy
Instead of obsessively hunting one material, incorporate collection into your normal gameplay. Check known spawn points when passing through areas, and always use Safe Pockets for upgrade items. This balanced approach prevents burnout while steadily working toward that powerful Level 5 Scrappy.
