Laboratory Reagents in ARC Raiders are a rare recyclable item. The item’s description states that it can be found in Medical buildings across all maps. Since there are a lot of medical buildings in the game, finding a good spot to farm these can be difficult.
As players will need three of these to upgrade their Explosive Station to level 3, all the locations where these reagents can be found are mentioned below. This guide includes the best maps and buildings players should check out first in ARC Raiders.

Every 60 Days, ARC Raiders will go through a wide server wipe, and here’s how to save your progress for your next Raider using the Expeditions.
How to Find Laboratory Reagents in ARC Raiders
You can carry 3 Laboratory Reagents in a single stack, and they sell for 2,000 Coins each. If you recycle this medical item, you will receive 16 Chemicals and 3 Crude Explosives, both useful for crafting explosives. As you only need three of these and one stack is enough to carry them, you can go with a Looting MK 1. This augment can be purchased from Lance, crafted in the workbench, or acquired through exchange with a Free Kit Augment.
The best map to find the Laboratory Reagents is Buried City. There are multiple medical buildings across the map, and you can check out any one of them. After loading into a match, check whether you are close to the Hospital or any pharmacy like the Piazza Arbusto or Plaza Rosa. The pharmacies have doors that you will need to breach, so make sure there are no hostile raiders or ARCs around.
In the case that you spawn near the Hospital, you can take any one of the multiple entrances to enter the building and make your way inside to the loot rooms. What you are looking for are cabinets, or blue drawers, inside which there is a chance these Reagents can drop. Make sure to check out the stretchers and tables, as these items can also be found lying on top of them.
If you have keys for locations like the Hospital Key in Buried City or the Testing Annex Key in Dam Battlegrounds, then you should bring them into the next match. These open locked doors that have extra drawers and cabinets you can loot.
Starting a match on these maps during a map condition that increases the loot value is also a good idea.
