Tick Pod in Arc Raiders: How and where to find it

Ticks are known for their frightening jump speed after which they latch onto their targets and begin draining HP and Shield. If you get surrounded by them or are caught by surprise, they can become quite a problem.

Dealing with them is as simple as shooting them down and then taking their Tick Pods by looting their bodies. To maximize your chances of finding them, you need to go to an indoor area where the loot value is marked in red as 'High'. A decent example of this is the Hydroponic Dome Complex in Dam Battlegrounds, which is a very large indoor facility.

You may also find them in buildings with a 'Medium' loot value, which is marked in yellow. Make sure you clear every corner and keep an eye on the ceiling to find Ticks in Arc Raiders. These buildings are also often guarded by other ARC machines such as Fireballs and Turrets.

Use weapons such as shotguns or rifles because you may have to go through the Tick's armor to get its Tick Pod in Arc Raiders.

• Use light gear and keep a healthy supply of healing items on you.

You can also use a handful of skills, such as Marathon Runner for Mobility and Silent Scavenger for Survival, which will help you fight the Ticks and harvest the Tick Pod in Arc Raiders.

Looter's Luck is also a highly recommended skill as it makes finding quality loot easier, and finally, skills like Used to the Weight can help you carry many objects back once the run is over.
