With the expected Riven Tides update, we have reached the end of the Escalation roadmap. The new Arc Raiders update brings the ARC enemy known as the ARC Turbine in a new map environment. Additionally, there is a new item called 'Turbine Compressor' that every raider is currently trying to obtain. If you are one of them, learn how to obtain the Turbine Compressor in Arc Raiders in our guide here.

ARC Turbine Location in Arc Raiders

You can guess that the ARC Turbine, as the new ARC enemy, can only be found in the new map, Riven Tides. It can be found in both the normal map and in map conditions such as Beachcombing and Night Raid. Therefore, if you want to hunt the latest ARC threat, make sure to set your destination in the game to Riven Tides.

However, finding an ARC Turbine in the game will be a tough challenge, as raiders report not seeing one in every match. Some players have reported that you need to stay in an incursion for at least 15 minutes (half of an incursion) and only then will the ARC Turbine start to surface. Although this has not yet been confirmed by the developers, we found an ARC Turbine in the final moments of the game.

Currently, there is no guarantee that you will encounter an ARC Turbine in every incursion in Riven Tides, but you may still find one in the later hours of an incursion. So be cautious and constantly listen to the sounds around you in Arc Raiders, and you might catch the terrifying sound of the new ARC and rush towards its location immediately.

How to Obtain Turbine Compressor in Arc Raiders?

The most reliable way to obtain a Turbine Compressor in Arc Raiders is to defeat the new ARC Turbine threat and obtain not just one, but two compressors from its loot pool. However, defeating the new ARC enemy is a challenging task as expected.

Unlike a Vaporizer Regulator, many raiders have successfully found the new Turbine Compressors inside ARC Couriers and regular containers. Currently, there is uncertainty about regularly obtaining Turbine Compressors in high-level loot areas. So for now, you can try your luck by opening containers and couriers. We will update this section when we gather more information about the Turbine Compressor loot.

How to Use Turbine Compressor in Arc Raiders?

A valuable item like the new Turbine Compressor is always used to craft epic and legendary items in the game. The Turbine Compressor can be used to craft the new Powered Descender device added in the Riven Tides update. Also, don’t forget to upgrade your Utility Station to at least level 3 to craft a Power Descender in Speranza.
