Fireworks Box Blueprint in Arc Raiders – Requirements and Cold Snap Dam Location

Fireworks Box is an event blueprint in Arc Raiders that lets players create a fireworks-themed explosive item. Its name and the way it is discussed in the community point to an effect built around bursts of light, sound, and explosions rather than a simple, conventional charge.

Players describe it as producing plenty of pops and fireballs, which makes it a visually loud choice once it is in use. That combination of spectacle and explosive behavior has made it a standout item among the current event-focused rewards.

Because it is explicitly tagged as a new event blueprint, players quickly began sharing where they found it and what is needed to craft it. That has helped narrow down both the crafting requirements and at least one reliable location where the blueprint can appear.


Fireworks Box crafting requirements in Arc Raiders

To craft Fireworks Box, an explosives station upgraded to level 2 is required. Lower-level stations do not provide the option, so the station upgrade is the first gate before the blueprint can be turned into usable items.

When crafting Fireworks Box at an explosives station level 2 or higher, the recipe consumes one unit of explosive compound and three pop triggers. These materials are spent each time the item is created, so every craft is a deliberate trade of those components for another Fireworks Box.

Requirement Quantity / Level Notes
Explosives station level 2 Needed before the Fireworks Box crafting option becomes available.
Explosive compound 1 Consumed each time a Fireworks Box is crafted.
Pop triggers 3 Also consumed on every craft of Fireworks Box.

Once the blueprint has been obtained and these requirements are met, Fireworks Box can be produced repeatedly as long as the necessary materials are available. The limiting factors then become access to explosive compound and pop triggers and the time spent gathering them.


Fireworks Box blueprint location at Cold Snap Dam

The Fireworks Box event blueprint has been found at Cold Snap Dam. Players have obtained it from a field depot in that area, specifically from a computer-style loot container that is known for usually offering only a battery and a speaker.

That container can include the Fireworks Box blueprint as part of its random loot. Because the drop is not guaranteed, it is possible to open the container and see only the usual items, then return on another run and find the blueprint instead.

Step 1: Travel to the Cold Snap Dam location in the game world. Move into the area until you are within the section that contains the field depot structures.

Step 2: Search the field depot for the computer-themed loot container. The container in question is recognizable as the one that normally yields only a battery and a speaker when opened.

Step 3: Open the computer container and check its contents for the Fireworks Box blueprint. If the blueprint does not appear, expect to rely on the random loot behavior and check the same container again during future visits to Cold Snap Dam.

Once the blueprint has dropped from the container and is collected, Fireworks Box becomes available for crafting at any explosives station that meets the level requirement and has the necessary materials.


Why Fireworks Box has drawn attention

Fireworks Box stands out partly because it is a new event blueprint and partly because of how it behaves once used. Community descriptions emphasize that it produces many pops and fireballs, matching its name and giving it a strong visual and audio presence.

Content creators and players who focus on optimization have highlighted it as a notable event item, showcasing its effects in short gameplay clips. That visibility, combined with a specific drop location and clear crafting costs, has made Fireworks Box a natural target for players who enjoy explosive tools with a bit of spectacle.


For anyone interested in adding Fireworks Box to their loadout, the path is straightforward: secure the blueprint from the field depot computer container at Cold Snap Dam, upgrade an explosives station to level 2, and stock up on explosive compound and pop triggers. With those pieces in place, the fireworks are ready to begin.
