Are you struggling to find Candle Holders for your Flickering Flames Project? Here's a guide on where you can find the Candle Holder in ARC Raiders.

ARC Raiders is a newly released extraction shooter from Embark Studios. The game is available on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series S|X.

Now almost a month after the game's release, ARC Raiders has finally moved to its season 2 update, Cold Snap. With the new update, players have received new changes to the game, a new map condition, and a limited-time event, Flickering Flames.

As a part of the Flickering Flames event, Embark has added a new project leading players to gather and donate items for merit. One of these items is Candle Holders, which are a requirement for completing the first phase of the project. If you're struggling to find Candle Holders, then here's a quick guide on where you should look.

Candle Holders are an important requirement for completing the requirements for the first phase of the Flickering Flames project. While the drop pattern of loot is random in ARC Raiders, there are certain places that can drop certain items, like Candle Holders.

If you're looking for Candle Holders, then try venturing or looking into residential POIs of all maps in ARC Raiders. Here are the best locations to look for Candle Holders:

  • Ruby Residence, Pale Apartments, and Pattern House in Dam Battlegrounds
  • Buildings near Grandioso Apartments and Plaza Rosa in Buried City

In our play sessions, the best places to look for Candle Holders were the Ruby Residence, Pale Apartments, and Pattern House in Dam Battlegrounds. For Ruby Residence and Pale Apartments, you can search the kitchen cabinets for Candle Holders, then extract through the Ben Welder's Sunroof raider hatch or the Central Swamp Lift.

If you're not afraid of a little PvP, then the best way for boosting your chances of finding Candleholders is by looting Plaza Rosa in Buried City. Most residential rooms in that area have an increased chance of spawning Candle Holders.
