How to Complete Launch Tower Loot in Arc Raiders

A lot of the events in Arc Raiders alter the map, bringing more opportunities for Raiders to gather higher rarity loot. These events require the players to visit multiple locations, press buttons, and loot key items. Because of this, there is a chance the Raiders will work together to complete the event faster and share the loot.

The Launch Tower Loot event is one of the shorter events, and the loot is substantial, especially if there are not many players looting the containers. Here is the complete event guide for Launch Tower Loot in Arc Raiders.

Launch Tower Loot Event Guide in Arc Raiders

The Launch Tower Loot event occurs twice a day at 11 PM PST/ 8 AM CET and 7 AM PST/ 4 PM CET. The event runs for an hour, so you will probably get time to do 2-3 runs depending on how long they take. To play this, start matchmaking on the Spaceport map with either a free loadout or go fully geared.

As soon as you spawn, make your way to the Launch Towers located in the center of the map. These are the tallest structures on the map, so you should be able to see them from almost anywhere. As you arrive at the towers, you can go inside, but you will find both doors on the side to be locked. There is a generator in the middle that requires a Fuel Cell to operate.

The location of the Fuel Cell is random but is always within the vicinity of the Launch Towers, so you will have to leave this room and look around. The Fuel Cell is a small, carryable item that will slow you down and stop you from sprinting. Because of this, you should be careful that there are no ground or flying ARCs nearby, or they will cause you problems.

Once you take the fuel cells back to the generator, simply interact to put them in, and there should be a lever on the side that you can pull.

The lever will activate the gates to open, allowing you to go up the ziplines on either side of the towers. As you reach the top area, be careful of the Pops and Fireballs up here, and once they have been dealt with, go further up to the roof.

There will be a few ARC enemies, so you can deal with them if you want, and go up the steps here to spot a locked container with a switch next to it. Activating the switch starts blaring a large noise, which attracts and spawns flying ARCs, even the Rocketeer.

Now players can deal with these ARC enemies, which is extremely difficult if you are playing solo and there are no Raiders around to help you. Alternatively, you can go down to the room where the Pops were located and wait out there after activating the switch. This will make most of the ARCs lose sight and fly away, giving you time to sneak up and loot everything. You can also throw down a smoke grenade to make the process of looting easier.

There is a locked container on both sides of the tower, so you can repeat the same process on the other side and extract at the nearby elevator with your hard-earned loot. Be careful of people spawning near the extraction points, because some players find it easy to knock down the Raiders who have already looted the tower instead of participating in the event themselves.
