ARC Raiders Synthetic Resin: How to Get It and Use It
In brief
ARC synthetic resin is an essential component in ARC Raiders, especially since the Headwinds update, allowing you to progress through the trophy display project. Find out how to obtain it by eliminating ARC enemies, use it to unlock rewards, and optimize it through recycling rather than selling.
In ARC Raiders, ARC synthetic resin is a fundamental element, especially since the Headwinds update: it's an essential component for progressing through the trophy display project made up of successive stages. Let's take a look at how to get it and use it.

The best ways to get ARC synthetic resin
To get your hands on it, you need to find ARC enemies, take them down, and search the remains of their bodies. You may also potentially find some by searching ARC probes, whose location isn't known ahead of time, which is why this method is somewhat unreliable.

Enemies to take down
The list of enemies to eliminate in order to get ARC synthetic resin isn't fundamentally different from the usual enemies:
- Baron
- Matriarch
- Queen
- Watcher
- Shredder
- Snitch
- Turret
Snitches are among the easiest enemies to kill, while the Matriarch and Queen are the ones you'll have the hardest time taking down. For each enemy defeated, you'll only receive a small amount of ARC synthetic resin. If you're playing with friends, make sure to let them know you need resin.

Using ARC synthetic resin in ARC Raiders
Once you've collected your ARC synthetic resin, you'll be able to use it. First, you need to manage to collect at least 10 units, which will be used to complete the fourth stage of your trophy display project. By handing over these pieces, you'll get a Level 4 Bobcat, and you'll move a little closer to finishing the project.
Recycling and selling
You can recycle ARC synthetic resin into plastic components, which are useful in more than one recipe. Thanks to recycling, you'll get even more plastic.
Note
You can also sell the resin, but this is generally not recommended, unless you're already deep in the red on your account.
