ARC Raiders Frigate Inductor: where to look

The ARC Raiders Frigate Inductor is a Frigate loot component needed for Research Station level 4. Search the Frigate during its map condition; no checked source establishes a guaranteed hatch or exact drop percentage.

A practical search plan

The published boarding route uses a Reclaimer to reach the ship, then searches its breachable circular containers. Treat this as a demanding activity, with mobility equipment, supplies and a return plan prepared beforehand.

1. Confirm the Frigate condition on map selection.
2. Locate a Reclaimer and follow its boarding interaction rather than attempting an old geometry shortcut.
3. Once aboard, use actual search prompts to distinguish containers from scenery.
4. Check what you found by full name. An Inductor and a Diagnostic Node serve different needs.
5. If you get the needed component, decide whether continuing is worth risking the upgrade.

What changed in 2.3?

Embark shifted higher-tier rewards toward deeper Frigate areas. An October exterior-only route therefore needs that qualification. The change is not a promise of an Inductor in the final room, and a player's long dry spell is not a measured drop rate.

The same notice retains Reclaimer docking and vaulting issues. UNSURE: a universally reliable boarding workaround and current per-container odds. We have not played this route.
