In Arc Raiders, Magnets are an uncommon item. They are required for crafting a variety of things, including grenades, guns, and augments. But they are also quite hard to scavenge, leaving one to rely on purchasing them from Celeste. However, there are several other items - which are not so uncommon - that recycle into magnets also and are a good source for them.

List of items that recycle into magnets

  • Exodus Modules - 2x Magnet, 1x Mechanical Components
  • Industrial Magnet - 2x Magnet, 4x Metal Parts
  • Microscope - 3x Magnet, 1x Advanced Mechanical Components
  • Ripped Safety Vest - 1x Magnet, 1x Durable Cloth
  • Ruined Tactical Vest - 1x Magnet, 5x Fabric

Note: Not all items with the word 'Magnet' or 'Magnetic' recycle into Magnets. These include Magnetic Accelerator and Magnetron which itself recycle into Magnetic Accelerator, but not into Magnets.

Where to find Magnets?

While the item card mentions that Magnet is found in 'Exodus', there is no specific place called Exodus. Instead, Exodus is an era when humans built advanced rockets and flew off to space after the first calamity struck earth.

So go to the Spaceport, particularly the Rocket Assembly building and you're highly likely to find Magnet there.
