Soul's Offering is a time-limited project in ARC Raiders that arrived with update 2.3.0 on October 27, 2026. It runs until November 16, 2026, giving you 20 days to gather materials across four stages and honor the fallen raiders and survivors of Toledo. The final reward is the Pilgrim Backpack cosmetic and the Offering Display Table legendary blueprint for your Outpost. Here's everything you need to collect, where to find it, and how to finish Stage 4 without losing your Fireworks Box.
Soul's Offering project stages
What are all the Soul's Offering stages and rewards?
The project has four stages. The first three require material donations tied to three survivor clans: the Vaultons, Ferrovians, and Murtetans. Stage 4 skips the donation requirement entirely and sends you on a short rooftop mission in Buried City.
Stage 3 awards three Fireworks Boxes. Save at least one for Stage 4 instead of using all three elsewhere.
| Stage | Name | Materials Required | Rewards |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Construct Vaulto's Offerings | 1x Dead Flowers, 2x Rock Salt, 15x ARC Alloy, 1x Expired Respirator | Stiletto II, Extended Barrel I, Angled Grip II, Stable Stock II |
| 2 | Construct Ferrovia's Offering | 3x Dead Flowers, 2x Railway Lantern, 15x Advanced ARC Powercell, 10x Remote Raider Flare | Torrente II, Compensator III, Extended Medium Mag III, Stable Stock III |
| 3 | Construct Murteta's Offering | 2x Fancy Plate, 1x Mask Fragment, 1x Insulation Roll, 5x Fertilizer | Vulcano I, Shotgun Silencer, Extended Shotgun Mag III, 3x Fireworks Box |
| 4 | Honor the Fallen | Set off a firework on the Santa Maria Houses rooftop in Buried City | Pilgrim Backpack, Offering Display Table (Design) |
You need 4 Dead Flowers total across Stages 1 and 2. Start collecting them from the first raid and don't stop at one. The same applies to Fancy Plates and Mask Fragments: grab them whenever you see them, even before their stage is active.
Where to find Rock Salt and Dead Flowers
Neither item has a confirmed fixed spawn. Both are trinkets that appear in residential containers, so the goal is to identify areas with high container density and sweep them efficiently.
Old Town on Pendola Pass
This is the most consistently reported combined search area for both materials. Players have found Rock Salt and Dead Flowers in the kitchens, drawers, and cupboards of Old Town's residential buildings. Search accessible floors before moving to the next structure, and check furniture surfaces for loose trinkets that sit outside containers.
The pharmacy in the area makes a useful landmark. Its medical containers are not the main target for trinkets, but the surrounding residential blocks are worth a full sweep.
Hotel Panorama on Riven Tides
A rooftop kitchen accessible by zipline. Players have reported finding both Rock Salt and Dead Flowers here. This is the strongest backup option if Old Town has already been looted by other squads. It also works as a combined stop if you still need Fertilizer, since the Riven Tides shallow-water area is another reported Fertilizer source.
Additional Dead Flowers locations
Space Travel and Galleria in Buried City are player-reported alternatives for Dead Flowers. If you are already deploying to Buried City for other materials, check drawers there before extracting.
Old Town residential sweep route
Where to find the remaining Soul's Offering materials
ARC Alloy (15x)
Drops from defeated ARC enemies. All ARC types except Ticks are valid sources. This is the most straightforward material in Stage 1 and should fill naturally from combat during your residential sweeps.
Expired Respirator (1x)
Found in medical-adjacent locations. A small medical hut on Pendola Pass has a recorded pickup. Testing Annex on Dam Battlegrounds, the Hospital in Buried City, and Medical Research on Stella Montis are additional areas worth checking. No guaranteed spawn has been confirmed at any of these.
Railway Lantern (2x)
Supermarket and security lockers on Pendola Pass have recorded finds. Players also report lanterns near the station and inside trains on the same map. If the supermarket has been cleared, check the station area before switching maps.
Advanced ARC Powercell (15x)
Drops from larger ARC enemies. Bombardier and Bastion remains are the best-reported sources. The count is the same as ARC Alloy, so expect to spend multiple raids on combat to fill both.
Remote Raider Flare (10x)
Can be crafted at Workstations if you have the blueprint. Also found as random loot in Raider Containers. Check your crafting materials before dedicating raids to container hunting.
Fancy Plate (2x)
An Epic-rarity trinket with no fixed location. Old Town cupboards, drawers, tables, and loose floor loot are the primary reported sources. Collect these alongside your Rock Salt and Dead Flowers sweeps.
Mask Fragment (1x)
Another Epic trinket. Drawers at the Controlled Receiving Facility near the Pendola Pass rail yard have a confirmed find. One reported pickup does not mean it spawns there every run, but it is the most specific location in the sources.
Insulation Roll (1x)
Found in Storm Huts on Pendola Pass during storm conditions. Plan this stop for a raid where a storm is active on that map.
Fertilizer (5x)
The Riven Tides shallow-water area is the primary reported source. Dam Battlegrounds domes are a community-reported alternative. Neither has a confirmed fixed spawn rate.
What is the most efficient farming route?
Old Town on Pendola Pass covers the most overlap for a single deployment: Rock Salt, Dead Flowers, Fancy Plates, and potentially Railway Lanterns from the nearby supermarket are all reported from the same area. Here's a practical sweep order:
- Deploy to Pendola Pass and navigate to Old Town's residential cluster.
- Sweep kitchens, drawers, and cupboards floor by floor in each building before moving on.
- Check furniture tops and floor loot inside every room.
- If Railway Lanterns are still needed and the supermarket is accessible, detour to its locker room.
- After Old Town, consider a stop at the Controlled Receiving Facility near the rail yard for the Mask Fragment.
For Storm Huts and Insulation Roll, plan a separate raid timed to storm conditions. For Fertilizer, add Riven Tides as a standalone deployment or combine it with a Hotel Panorama run if you still need Rock Salt or Dead Flowers.

Store project materials in stash
How to complete Stage 4: Honor the Fallen
After Stage 3 completes and you have a Fireworks Box in your inventory, deploy to Buried City and head to Santa Maria Houses.
The documented no-Grappling-Hook approach:
- Find the alley north of Santa Maria Houses and locate the neighboring building with sand piled against it.
- Climb that building's roof and face south toward the yellow bell tower.
- Cross the metal walkway toward the yellow building, jump the gap, and climb onto the pink building on the left. Stay outside.
- Confirm you are standing on Santa Maria Houses itself.
- Deploy the Fireworks Box and trigger it remotely.
- Check Projects for stage completion.
If it does not register, verify you are on the correct roof and that the box actually fired before using a second one. Stage 3 gives you three boxes, so you have margin for error.

Common mistakes to avoid
- Collecting only 1 Dead Flower and stopping. You need 4 total.
- Ignoring Fancy Plates and Mask Fragments until Stage 3 opens. Both are Epic rarity and can take multiple raids to find.
- Using all three Fireworks Boxes from Stage 3 before completing Stage 4.
- Leaving the final stage until the last day without checking the project countdown.
- Skipping the Insulation Roll until late and then finding no active storm available.
Frequently asked questions
Can Rock Salt and Dead Flowers drop in the same location?
Yes. Old Town on Pendola Pass has recorded finds for both in the same residential sweep, making it the most efficient combined starting point.
Are any of the trinkets guaranteed spawns?
No guaranteed spawn has been confirmed for any trinket in Soul's Offering. Container contents vary between raids. If a building is already looted, move to an alternative location or return in a later raid.
How many Fireworks Boxes do you get, and how many do you need?
Stage 3 awards 3 Fireworks Boxes. You only need 1 for the Stage 4 rooftop objective. Keep at least one reserved before using the others.
What do you get for finishing the entire project?
The Pilgrim Backpack cosmetic and the Offering Display Table legendary blueprint for your Outpost. Note that the blueprint unlocks the design; crafting the table requires its own recipe and materials.
