The Test Case is a new quest in ARC Raiders that’s available as part of the Flashpoint update. On the surface, this is a relatively easy quest, as there is no hidden information to crack. However, you’ll need to face some of the harder enemies and take them down to complete the tasks.

ARC Raiders Test Case quest walkthrough

The Test Case quest can be broken down into four parts.

  • Destroy a Firefly
  • Deliver a Firefly Burner to Apollo
  • Deliver a Hornet Driver to Apollo
  • Deliver a Fireball Burner to Apollo

Incidentally, I already had Hornet Drivers and Fireball Burners in my inventory. You can simply donate them directly from your inventory to Apollo. You can find Hornets and Fireballs pretty easily.

  • Hornets are found on all maps, but I have noticed more of them in the Blue Gate map. They’re usually found near the exfil points. To bring them down, you can always use weapons like the Aphelion or the Hullcracker. If you’re using a precise weapon, you should aim at the rear rotors since that will disbalance and cause them to crash.
  • To take down Fireballs, you can try the Buried City map. Wait for them to charge at you. They will expose their core just when they’re about to throw fire at you. A single shot to the core is enough to take them down.

For the Firefly, you’ll need to adopt the same strategy as the Hornet. You’ll want to take the rotors at the back down, which will make it unable to aim at you. Using weapons like the Renegade will allow you to land those precise shots that are crucial to take down the Firefly.

Alternatively, you can also use explosives or weapons like the Hullcracker. A few shots from the Hullcracker should be enough to destroy the Firefly completely. You can then salvage its remains to find the Burner and bring it back safely to Apollo.

If you already have a Firefly Burner in your inventory, you can also donate it to Apollo for the quest. However, you’ll still have to destroy at least one Firefly to complete the quest.
