Wires are needed for a lot of things in ARC Raiders. However, the most important one is the Trash and Treasure quest, which will delay your main story progress if you get stuck.
You must find a lot of Wires, which makes it hard to complete, so here’s a quick guide on how to find Wires fast in ARC Raiders.
Where to Find Wires Fast in ARC Raiders


Wires can be found in the Electrical and Technological areas of the map. You can open the map and find areas that have one of these categories, especially areas with “High Value Loot,” marked with a red map.


In the Dam Battlegrounds map, the best areas to go for are the Hydroponic Dome Complex and the Power Generation Complex. The Hydroponic Dome Complex just has a lot of loot, but the Power Generation Complex easily has electrical loot inside the command rooms, and finding Wires is almost guaranteed as long as you fully loot the area.


Apart from finding Wires outright, you can also recycle items that may give Wires. The rare Power Cables will give three Wires when salvaged.
You’ll need six Wires for the Trash Into Treasure quest, so it should be easy to get if you try to find them and also salvage the recyclable materials you find. If you are also having trouble finding Batteries, which are also needed for the Trash Into Treasure quest, you can follow the guide here.
