How to Link Your Accounts for Fellowship Twitch Drops Without Losing Your Mind

So, Arc Games is dangling free digital carrots in front of us Fellowship players in the form of Twitch Drops. Watch participating streams, get free stuff. Simple, right? Well, almost. First, you need to successfully link your Steam account, a newly created (or existing) Arc account, and your Twitch account through a specific, slightly finicky process.

If you just dive in blind, you'll probably end up clicking links in your browser and wondering why nothing works. Don't worry, I've deciphered the instructions.

Your Step-by-Step Guide to Free Loot

Follow these steps precisely. Seriously, don't try skipping ahead or opening links directly in your browser, or you'll just waste your time.

Part 1: Email Verification (Creating/Linking your Arc Account)

This first part creates an Arc account tied to your email and links it to the Steam account you use for Fellowship. This is how they know where to send your loot.

  1. Launch Fellowship via Steam: This is crucial. Doing this opens the ArcLite game launcher, which you need for the next steps.

  2. Find the Email Banner: Inside the ArcLite launcher, look for a rotating image carousel. Click the banner that says something like "Your Reward Awaits. Get the Exclusive Mount with your Email".

  3. Verify Your Email: Enter the email you want associated with your Arc account. They'll send you a verification code; enter that code when prompted. If you already have an Arc account with that email, it will link that existing account instead of creating a new one.

  4. Confirm Mount Reward (Optional but Recommended): Click that same "Your Reward Awaits" banner again. You should get a notification confirming the exclusive mount reward was added to your Steam inventory. This confirms the email verification worked.

Part 2: Linking Arc to Twitch

Now that Arc knows who you are on Steam, you need to tell it who you are on Twitch.

  1. Find the Twitch Banner in ArcLite: Back in the ArcLite launcher (make sure it's still open!), find the other banner image in the carousel, the one branded with the Twitch logo that says something like "Join Our Stream". You MUST click this link from within the launcher. Clicking a direct link won't work because it needs the launcher to pass your credentials.

  2. Check the Linking Page (Step 2): A webpage should open showing four steps. Critically, Step 2 must show your verified email address with a green checkmark. If it doesn't, something went wrong in Part 1. Go back and redo the email verification.

  3. Link to Twitch (Step 3): Click the "Link Account" button under Step 3 and log in with your Twitch credentials. Once successful, Step 3 on the webpage should now show your Twitch username with a green checkmark.

    • Troubleshooting: If Step 3 already showed a Twitch account linked before you clicked the button, your Arc account might have been linked previously for another game. This can cause conflicts. Go to your Twitch connections settings (https://www.twitch.tv/settings/connections), find the Arc connection under "Other Connections", unlink it, and then restart this step by clicking the banner in ArcLite again.

  4. Start Watching & Claiming: You're finally linked! Now head over to Twitch. Check your Drops & Rewards inventory (https://www.twitch.tv/drops/inventory) to see participating channels and active campaigns. Watch a stream until you meet the requirements, then make sure you click "Claim Now" on the Twitch inventory page. The reward should then appear in your Steam inventory and be available the next time you log into Fellowship.

Still FUBAR?

If you followed all that and it still isn't working, you'll need to contact Arc Games support directly. They have a ticket system. Be prepared to send screenshots of the Twitch linking page showing your progress (or lack thereof) and your Twitch connections page.

Good luck, and happy looting. Don't forget to actually claim your drops on Twitch once you earn them.
