What to know
- Spawns primarily in Tech and Industrial loot pools
- Found in Research Facilities, Power Plants, and Data Centers
- Used to craft advanced weapons and high-tier gadgets
- Can be recycled for valuable Tech Materials
In ARC Raiders, many loot items serve dual roles: part of scavenging during a run, and part of your base/upgrade system outside of missions. ARC Thermo Lining is one such rare loot item. It comes from “ARC” enemies or activities (which are robotic / machine‑type enemies) and provides a useful material when recycled. Since it is rare, acquiring a good supply helps with crafting or workshop upgrades.
