Method #1 (Recycling Snap Hook)

One of the confirmed ways of getting Power Rod is recycling the Snap Hook to get it. You will get a snap hook during the quest The Lost In Transmission. Not only that, it is also available from the Harvester event in ARC Raiders.

Snap hook is also valuable during the quest Tribute To Toledo, so might not want to recycle it yet to get Power Rod. That;s why there are other ways to get Power Rod as well.

To recycle an item, in this case a snap hook, find the given item in your stash and then click on it to recycle. From snap hook recycle, you will get a Power Rod along with 3 ropes.

Method #2 (Power generation complex)

If you don’t have a snap hook to recycle, the next chance of having a Power Rod is from the Power Generation Complex. Go there and climb to the top of the bridge. From that top, turn right twice, and you will find Power generators on the wall. First, breach the Power generator to get a Power Rod. If you don’t get it from it then look around and breach other boxes around.

The chance of getting a power rod increases if you already have one with you. Make sure to save one for the Tribute to Toledo quest.

Method # 3(From Spaceport Map)

Head outside the Launch Towers near the Departure building and go to the underground tunnel in the Spaceport map. Look around the Power generators to get a Power Rod in ARC Raiders.
