AC6 All Hidden Parts & Locations
Armored Core 6 features several secret upgrades that cannot be purchased. These secret upgrades are incredibly powerful weapons and equipment hidden away in chests found throughout the chapter missions of Armored Core 6. While these parts cannot be purchased in the store, they can be acquired by finding them during missions or getting them as rewards for collecting Combat Logs.
Below is a list of all hidden parts in Armored Core 6 we know of so far and how to find them.
HC-3000 WRECKER (Head) Location

2C-3000: WRECKER (Legs) Location
Step 1
Near the end of the level, you will come across a large open area. Instead of going straight toward the large RaD sign to kill the enemy mechs, make a right turn along the rail lines.

Step 3
Locate the chest containing the BC-0600: 12345 Booster found just before the crane’s tip.
WB-0000: BAD COOK (Flamethrower) Location

IA-C01A EPHEMERA (Arms) Location
Step 1
Still in Chapter 4, Mission 28 (“Underground Exploration – Depth 2”), you'll have to look for an alternative route to reach the mech that fired at you earlier. So from the tunnel you were in, jump down to the left, where you should cliffsides littered with broken mechs and a ventilation pipe. Enter it.
Step 2
Once inside, you will see a platform you can use to jump up to the top of the room.
Step 3

Step 1
In Chapter 4, Mission 29 (“Underground Exploration – Depth 3”), you'll see the huge reactor right in front of you.

IA-C01C EPHEMERA (Core) Location

Step 2
From the platforms underneath the outer disc, fly up until you get to the disc itself.
Step 3
Once up there, go along the outer disc, eliminating the laser cannons as you go. They're very annoying so make sure to get all the ones that are in your way.

The chest containing the IA-C01C EPHEMERA is right at the end of the path leading to the pillar.
IA-C01H EPHEMERA (Head) Location
