The Radial Press (epic, worth 3,000) spawns on Pendola Pass only, and almost only at Almatera Station (304 of its 308 spots). You need it for upgrading the Gunsmith from level III to IV (3 Radial Presses, with 3 Magnetic Accelerators and 1 Emperor Modulator), the level that lets you amplify weapons, and 1 for the Chambers Nightstand Design.
Quick Answer
- Map: Pendola Pass only, and almost only at Almatera Station (304 of its 308 spots).
- Best areas: Almatera Station and Porta Benvenuti.
- Search: shelves, train-car tables and seats, counters and tables, or parked vehicles.
- Loot type: Mechanical and Industrial.
- Loot zones: check the map at raid start. Areas marked yellow roll better loot, and red ones more and better still.
- You need: 3 for the Gunsmith upgrade from level III to IV, which unlocks amplified weapons.
What Kind of Places to Search
Every one of its spawn spots is loose loot, lying out in the open, so look at surfaces as you move through a building. Containers in the open world never hold it. Share of all its spawn spots on Pendola Pass:
| Where | Share of spots |
|---|---|
| Shelves and storage racks | 54% |
| Train cars: tables and seats | 35% |
| Tables, chairs and counters | 7% |
| Parked vehicles | 2% |

What Players Report
Where Raiders have found one so far:
- Our run: loose on the metal shelving of a shop at Almatera Station, while Almatera Station was a yellow loot zone.
- Millzaa found one in the Old Town key room, the basement behind the green keycard door (in the playtest before launch).
Key-room loot comes from its own tables, which the spot counts above don't include, so the Old Town key room is worth a look too.
Best Areas on Pendola Pass
The places with the most spots where the Radial Press can spawn:
- Almatera Station (304 spots)
- Porta Benvenuti (4 spots)
Open the Pendola Pass map to plan a route through them. Spots are only chances: every spot can roll many other items too.
Tips
- Train cars are quick wins. Parked passenger cars have a table and seats per bay; walk the aisle and look down.
- Head for the loot zones. Each raid marks some areas yellow or red on the map, and they change every raid. Yellow already rolls better loot; red rolls more and better loot still.
- It weighs 0.5. Keep picking them up; three is all a project asks for.
- Key rooms pay off. In the footage we went through, the Almatera Station, Cielo Sereno Observatory and Old Town key rooms gave Laser Levels, Insulation Rolls, Epoxy Buckets, Thermal Shakers, Calculators and a Radial Press.
