ARC Raiders Harvester Guide – Loot, Rewards

The Harvester is one of ARC Raiders’ more tense PvE events, especially for new squads. It requires timing, awareness, and team coordination to avoid squad wipes inside the chamber. This ARC Raiders Harvester Guide explains exactly how the encounter works, how to avoid the shield-drain arc blasts, and the optimal way to secure the reward pods.

ARC Raiders Harvester Guide

The Harvester is a multi-phase encounter found inside a chamber with three entrances. Once activated, the event cycles through damage phases that force your team to move, solve, and survive under time pressure. Completing the sequence rewards your squad with pods, Equalizers, blueprints, and additional loot.

Important:
• You cannot kill the Queen in the center. Ignore it completely.
• Your goal is to open panels, insert canisters, destroy marked nodes, and survive the blast phases.

Before You Enter – Quick Prep

Clear nearby ARC (especially Rocketeer and Hounds) so they don’t third-party you mid-event.

Identify the three entrances to the Harvester chamber. They connect inside, but treat each as a rotation lane.

Assign sides if you are running with a squad of three. Each player should handle a section.

Phase Breakdown

Phase 1: Opening the Encounter

  • Do not rush inside immediately. Stand outside and wait for the first arc blast.
  • The Harvester will fire an electric arc blast that wipes shields if you’re caught.
  • As soon as the blast finishes, jump through the gate together.

If you mistime it, you can still dive through late, but expect to lose shields.

Phase 2: Break the Panels

Once inside, your squad should:

  1. Go up to the second floor.
  2. Start breaking open panels around the area. These are the key to progressing.
  3. One of the broken panels triggers the next step – stay active and call out progress.

Move efficiently and stay spread enough to cover different panels without overlap.

Phase 3: Evade the Blast and Reset Position

After a short time, another arc blast will trigger. When you hear the charge:

  • Move back toward the active exit lane.
  • Either exit or dodge the blast inside by taking cover.
  • Shields will drop if you mistime it, but it’s survivable if you’re positioned well.

Once safe, head to the next panel locations and repeat the break phase.

Phase 4: Insert the Canister

When a panel reveals a canister, it’s time for the critical step:

  1. Pick up the canister (but don’t panic—no need to rush).
  2. Go to the east side (or the side your team assigned).
  3. Open your panel first—many players forget this step.
  4. Insert the canister.

If you die while holding it, your team will lose time retrieving it, so avoid standing near blast zones.

Phase 5: Destroy the Yellow Markers (Damage Phase)

Once the canister is inserted, yellow weak-point markers will spawn around the Harvester.

Your team must:

  • Destroy all yellow markers as quickly as possible.
  • Focus fire; call out missed nodes.
  • When all nodes are destroyed, the Harvester fails its cycle and rewards drop.

If done correctly, you complete the encounter here.

Rewards

Upon successful completion, everyone receives rewards such as:

  • Pods
  • Equalizers
  • Weapon Blueprints (e.g., Jupiter Blueprint)
  • Additional loot around the area

Loot spawns inside and around the Harvester chamber. Check the edges and upper levels for additional containers.

Exfil and Safety

Once done:

  • Regroup, heal, and reposition.
  • Identify your nearest extraction or safe route.
  • If you have a Puff House Key, you can route toward bonus loot spots on the way out.

Teams often head toward Zips End after completion for a safe reposition or extraction.
