Where to Get Rocketeer Drivers in ARC Raiders

You drive a rocket with this? Idk how that works.

Drivers are a special item dropped by different ARCs in ARC Raiders, which have several crafting, upgrading, and even combat uses. These drivers vary in rarity, but if you’re someone who likes to take threats head-on, you’ll be collecting plenty of these during your runs.

That said, not every ARC in the game is as simple as a Snitch or Wasp, and if you’re looking for Rocketeer Drivers, which are needed for a workbench upgrade, here’s how you can get them in ARC Raiders.

Acquiring Rocketeer Drivers in ARC Raiders

You can acquire Rocketeer Drivers by either directly taking down Rocketeer ARCs and looting their remains or by searching different Rocketeer husks scattered around the different maps.

The first approach is quite dangerous because the Rocketeer is a force to be reckoned with, especially if you lack firepower or manpower, but it’s doable.

I recommend going the second route, which involves raiding different Rocketeer Husks for a small but possible chance of acquiring a Rocketeer driver.

You can confirm if the husk is indeed of a Rocketeer by pinging it.

Best Rocketeer Husks Locations in ARC Raiders

The best way to find Rocketeer Husks is by exploring the northwestern region of the Dam Battlegrounds. Here, you can find several Husks that contain valuable items and a possible Rocketeer Driver. I’ve marked at least five of them on the map with a red dot:

Rocketeer Husk in South Swamp Outpost

You can find at least one Rocketeer Husk in the South Swamp Outpost.

Rocketeer Husks in Old Battleground

You can find at least two Rocketeer Husks near the Old Battleground.

Rocketeer Husks in Ben Welder’s Sunroof

You can find at least three Rocketeer Husks near Ben Welder’s Sunroof.

This particular driver has an “Epic” rarity, and I recommend equipping an augment with a safe pocket to put it in. You might have to loot these husks a few times before you get them, but it beats taking on the Rocketeer itself.
