Tick in ARC Raiders: drops, weakness and maps
Tick is an Ambush Predator unit with Moderate threat. Small, spider-like robots that leap onto players, attaching themselves to your head. They're fast and disorienting, designed to punish careless Raiders.
How to kill Tick
Just shoot it. It's also one-hit with your melee weapon.
Destroying it is worth 50 XP and looting the wreck another 100 XP. Bring enough ammo for its threat level and loot it fast: the noise draws other ARC and Raiders.
Where Tick spawns
Tick shows up on Dam Battlegrounds, The Spaceport, The Blue Gate, Buried City, Stella Montis and Stella Montis (Upper).
What Tick drops
Search the wreck for ARC Alloy and Tick Pod. These are the parts the workshop and projects ask for, so Tick is the farm target when you need them.
| Drop | Sell value | Needed by |
|---|---|---|
| ARC Alloy | 200 coins | 8 upgrades and projects |
| Tick Pod | 640 coins | 2 upgrades and projects |
Other ARC: Bastion, Bombardier, Fireball, Hornet, Leaper, Matriarch, Pop, Rocketeer, Sentinel, Shredder, Snitch, Spotter, Surveyor, The Queen, Turret, Wasp.
