Rotary Encoder is an essential quest item in ARC Raiders. Aside from that, it's also usable as a recycling material for processors, which is a set ingredient for trigger nades. Moreover, it also provides electrical components that are essential items for crafting Advanced Electrical Components.
Rotary Encoder is a required item for completing the "With A View" quest. If you're stuck looking for a Rotary Encoder in ARC Raiders, then here's a quick guide for you showing you the possible spawn locations of the item.
How to Find Rotary Encoder in ARC Raiders
While the drop pattern of loot is random in ARC Raiders, there are certain places that can drop certain items, like Rotary Encoders.
If you're looking for Rotary Encoders, then try venturing or looking into Exodus POIs of all maps in ARC Raiders. The only map with Exodus POI is Stella Montis. Here are the best locations to look for Rotary Encoders on Stella Montis:
- Assembly
- Business Center
- Medical Research
During my runs, I consistently found Rotary Encoders in Assembly and Medical Research. You have a high chance of finding it in small blue medical cabinets, white medical drawers, and car toolboxes (yellow and red).
While Stella Montis is a very PvP-heavy map, you can get Rotary Encoders easily with a very odd trick if you don't want to invest much or have gear fear from the recent expedition. The odd trick is going in naked without any shield, augment, or guns.
With a naked loadout, you'll get a safe pocket, so you can look for Rotary Encoders and put them in your safe pocket and surrender. However, as Stella Montis is littered with Pops, Fireballs, and Ticks, navigating these areas might become a major grind for you.
