Where to Find Prickly Pears in ARC Raiders

Prickly Pears can be found next to cacti scattered across all maps in ARC Raiders. Cacti tend to grow in groups, and you may spot the fruits on the ground nearby. Unlike Lemons and Apricots, it’s not possible to harvest more fruit by hitting the cacti–you must rely on what’s already available on the ground.

Here are several locations where Prickly Pears can be found:

• Dam Battlegrounds: Close to Red Lakes Hatch in the Red Lakes area.
• Dam Battlegrounds: Near Raider Outpost East, to the north of the Power Generation Complex.
• Dam Battlegrounds: At the ruins of a house south of the road fork at Victory Ridge, found on the northwest part of the map.
• Buried City: Located at the southernmost point of the map.
• Buried City: Near the houses east of the previous point.
• Buried City: On the sandy hills located east of the Hospital.

Within the Dam Battlegrounds, you can travel from the Red Lakes to Raider Outpost East on the northern edge. From there, follow the map’s perimeter to reach Victory Ridge, where you can find another cluster of cacti. In Buried City, you can start your search from the southern boundary and explore the area in a counter-clockwise direction.

Prickly Pears are considerably rarer than Lemons or Apricots due to the inability to shake fruit trees. Therefore, it’s wise to take full advantage of the Lush Blooms event when it occurs. This event enhances the availability of natural loot and generates fruit baskets throughout the map, which contain an abundance of fruits and plants.
