Where to find Expired Respirators in Arc Raiders

Guides

You can get expired respirators fast in Arc Raiders once you know where to go

You'll ned to find Expired Respirators in Arc Raiders for the Trophy Display Project, specifically Stage 2's Soaring Menaces, which needs three of them to complete it. The rest of what you need - some Spotter Relays, as well as Wasp and Hornet Drivers, are fairly easy to find and farm almost anywhere, just leaving the respirators sticking point Knowing where to look will make the job a lot easier though and, if you're lucky, you can get what you need in three targeted trips to the surface.

Arc Raiders Expired Respirators are found in medical areas, as listed in our Arc Raiders Loot Cheat Sheet. I found mine in the Testing Annex in Dam Battlegrounds, and this seems to be the community consensus for where to go. It's a good spot as it's fairly easy to reach, not to busy and with plenty of things to search to improve your odds. And it's right next to a lift, so you can get out quickly once you've found what you need.

The best way to find Expired Respirators in Arc Raiders then, is to make a beeline to the Testing Annex, head up to the first floor and check all the scientific/medical looking rooms. You can't miss these areas thanks to their large wobbly yellow glass panels and desks full of very obviously scientific looking machines. Search everything when you get there, although I found most of my respirators in one of these tall storage racks:

When you find an Expired Respirator make sure you put it in your safe pocket immediately, so you'll keep it whatever happens. If the Red Lake Balcony lift is still active outside the Testing Annex you can then get out quick, then return and repeat. You can try searching for multiple respirators, but with the lift so close you're probably better off leaving the second you find one and aiming for three short trips to tick off this Arc Raiders Trophy Cabinet Project requirement.
