ARC Raiders High-Gain Antenna Project Guide: Resource Locations & Rewards

The High-Gain Antenna Project has dropped with the ARC Raiders Flashpoint Update, and players will need to secure a couple of hard-to-get mats, including Vaporizer Regulators and Assessor Matrixes. This Project will allow players to unlock some juicy rewards, including a whopping 500 Raider Tokens, which are useful to unlock cosmetic rewards like the new Wasp Hunter set.

This guide will help players acquire all the mats to complete all the required steps in the High-Gain Antenna Project. It includes locations of every resource and all the rewards players can collect by completing each stage.

High-Gain Antenna Project Guide

To complete the High-Gain Antenna Project in ARC Raiders, players need to complete three different stages that will allow them to collect rewards on each completed entry, and that includes one big final reward. Each of the stages will require some hard-to-find resources, and in case players don’t know where to find them, here’s a full guide on all resources in ARC Raiders.

Sturdy Base (Stage 1 of 3)

Most of the materials in this step can be acquired by looting ARC Couriers or ARC Probes, which are quite safe to loot since most players will be focusing on other kinds of loot during the Major Map conditions. Still, it is important to always have a backup plan in case something goes wrong, especially when looting ARC Probes, which attract lots of attention due to the noise they make when breaching them.

Resources	Found in	Rewards
25 ARC Alloys	Most ARC Enemies, Probes, Couriers	Torrente II
10 ARC Flex Rubber	Probes, Couriers, Medium ARC Enemies, Bastions, Bombardiers	Extended Medium Mag III
10 ARC Performance Steel	ARC Couriers, Probes, Bastions, Bombardiers, Rocketeers	Extended Barrel
15 Advanced ARC Powercells	From most ARC Enemies, but especially Surveyors, Bombardiers, and Bastions	Padded Stock

Beating Bastions or Bombardiers is the most efficient way to farm both ARC Performance Steel, Flex Rubber, and Powercells. Players might find it even easier if they strike these enemies in groups; still, watch out for PvP-hungry Raiders, who are always on the prowl for a chance to take down unsuspecting players.

Data Logger (Stage 2 of 3)

Stage 2 is the most complex to finish, since they require players to dive into Close Scrutiny ARC Operations maps and face the lethal Vaporizers. Vaporizers are most vulnerable when they are shot on the belly, forcing them to deploy their shields and reposition. Once they remove the shield and start aiming their lasers, they can be taken down with a Wolpack Grenade.

Resources	Found in	Rewards
15 ARC Coolants	Most ARC Enemies, Probes, Couriers, Baron Husks	Bobcat III
15 ARC Thermo Lining	Probes, Couriers, Medium ARC Enemies, Bastions, Bombardiers	Extended Light Mag III
4 Vaporizer Regulators	Vaporizers, ARC Couriers during Hurricane or Close Scrutiny map conditions.	Vertical Grip III
6 Assessor Matrixes	From Assessors during the Close Scrutiny map condition.	100 Raider Tokens

ARC Coolants and ARC Thermo Lining are also more frequently found while looting Bastions and Bombardiers, so players might need to take down a few more of these enemies if they don’t already have these mats.

Assessors also contain lots of these materials during the Close Scrutiny events, but watch out for the ARC Swarm protecting these probes.

Parabolic Dish (Stage 3 of 3)

Arguably, the hardest of the steps of this Project. Players will need to farm tons of Surveyors to get 10 Vaults, though ARC Couriers also have a chance to have Surveyor Vaults in their loot pool, so it’s up to the RNG and players’ luck.

Resources	Found in	Rewards
10 Surveyor Vaults	Surveyors and Couriers	Vita Spray
20 ARC Synthetic Resins	Probes, Couriers, Medium ARC Enemies, Bastions, Bombardiers, Baron Husks	Photoelectric Cloak
15 Vaporizer Regulators	Vaporizers, ARC Couriers during Hurricane or Close Scrutiny map conditions.	Snap Hook
18 Assessor Matrixes	From Assessors during the Close Scrutiny map condition.	400 Raider Tokens

Meanwhile, Synthetic ARC Resin can be found on Baron Husks and most ARC Enemies, and it also depends on RNG. Assessors also drop lots of them, so players will have to dive into the new ARC Operations map condition to get the rest of the maps.

For Vaporizer Regulators players already know the drill, and Assessor Matrixes are also up for grabs, if players are quick enough, and carry a few Smoke Grenades and a Photoelectric Cloak to stealth-loot the Assessors.
