Mushrooms in Arc Raiders are easy to overlook until Scrappy starts asking for them, and then they become one of those ARC Raiders Items you suddenly wish you'd picked up every time you walked past a damp tree. They're used to feed and upgrade Scrappy, which matters because a better Scrappy brings back more resources while you're topside. That means mushrooms aren't just a one-off chore. They feed into your metal parts, rubber parts, chemicals, fabric, and later project progress too.

You'll find mushrooms in two main ways. The first is natural map spawns, usually in wet or shaded places: swamps, hydroponic areas, pipe corridors, basements, and the base of odd-looking dead trees. The second is wicker baskets during Lush Bloom. If that event is active, don't overthink it. Baskets can show up across maps and can drop several mushrooms at once, so they beat normal routes most of the time. When there's no event, Dam Battlegrounds is still the most reliable choice, with Spaceport being worth it only if you're close to the right tree.

Step-by-step mushroom farming route.

1. Check whether Lush Bloom is active before you queue. If it is, plan around wicker baskets instead of fixed mushroom spawns.
2. If there's no event, queue Dam Battlegrounds first. Head for the swamp, Hydroponic Dome Complex, or Water Treatment Plant corridors, depending on where you spawn.
3. Loot the nearest humid zone fast. Don't wander across the whole map just because another route sounds better on paper.
4. At Hydroponic Dome, look around the domes and inside buildings, especially near shallow water. Expect other players there.
5. At Water Treatment, follow pipe corridors and basement-like spaces, then use the elevator route if it's safe. It's a cleaner exit than pushing deeper.
6. If you load into Spaceport near Little Hangar, check the wooded area south of it by the Raider Hatch. That fixed tree is one of the easiest single checks in the game.
7. Put your first mushroom into your safe pocket if you're doing a risky speed run. Extract if you can, but don't throw away a good stack for one more tree.
8. Once the nearby spawns are gone, leave. Mushrooms don't refill during the same raid, so staying longer usually just adds danger.

Blue Gate is more of a backup map unless you're already there for something else or baskets are active. Its natural mushroom value isn't as clear as Dam Battlegrounds, and there isn't a neat route most players can repeat blind. Buried City is even more event-dependent. Older route talk mentions mushrooms broadly across maps, but current practical farming points you toward Dam Battlegrounds, the Spaceport fixed tree, and Lush Bloom baskets. That's the loop people actually finish runs with.

The big mistake is treating mushrooms like random junk loot. They have a pattern. Wet ground, pipes, basements, hydroponic rooms, swamp trees, then quick extraction. If you're farming Scrappy upgrades, keep your runs short and boring; boring is good when the item doesn't respawn mid-raid. And if you're also planning broader progression, checking market notes, crafting needs, or even cheap ARC Raiders BluePrints between farming sessions can help you decide whether to stockpile mushrooms or spend them right away.
