The Trophy Display is Arc Raiders’ newest permanent project, and it’s a grind. You’ll hunt every type of ARC enemy across five stages, collecting parts to build a display that proves your hunting prowess. The rewards are worth it though, including legendary weapons, blueprints, and 300,000 coins.

Here’s everything you need for each stage, where to find the materials, and tips to speed up the grind.

Quick Reference

All five stages at a glance:

Stage Focus Key Items Best Reward
1. Roaming Threats Ground ARCs Pop Triggers, Tick Pods, Surveyor Vaults Light Gun Parts Blueprint
2. Soaring Menaces Flying ARCs Wasp Drivers, Hornet Drivers, Spotter Relays Vita Shot Blueprint
3. Ferocious Foes Big ARCs Shredder Gyros, Leaper Pulse Units, Bastion Cells Shotgun Silencer Blueprint
4. Dominant Dangers Queens Arc Synthetic Resin, Queen Reactors Bobcat IV + Blueprint
5. Imposing Behemoths Matriarchs Matriarch Reactors, Bombardier Cells Aphelion + Snap Hook Blueprint

Stage 1: Roaming Threats

Ground-based ARCs. The easiest stage, but finding Surveyor Vaults takes time.

Required Qty Where to Find
Rusted Bolts 3 Industrial and mechanical loot containers
Pop Trigger 15 Kill Pops (common everywhere)
Tick Pod 15 Kill Ticks (common everywhere)
Surveyor Vault 5 Loot Surveyors (check our item locations guide)

Rewards: 10 Mod Components, 3 Power Rods, 10 Raider Tokens, Light Gun Parts Blueprint

Tips: Pops and Ticks spawn constantly, so you’ll get those passively. Surveyors are the bottleneck. They spawn in specific locations and aren’t always present, so expect to check multiple zones.

Stage 2: Soaring Menaces

Airborne ARCs. Bring plenty of ammo for this one.

Required Qty Where to Find
Spotter Relay 10 Kill Spotters
Expired Respirator 3 Loot containers
Wasp Driver 20 Kill Wasps
Hornet Driver 15 Kill Hornets

Rewards: 3 Vita Sprays, 3 Photoelectric Cloaks, 20 Raider Tokens, Vita Shot Blueprint

Tips: Dam Battleground, Buried City, and Spaceport have high flying ARC spawns. Wasps are the most common. Hornets are less frequent but spawn in the same areas. Stack up on ammo before you start farming.

Stage 3: Ferocious Foes

Big ARCs. Time to bring out the heavy weapons.

Required Qty Where to Find
ARC Performance Steel 10 Large ARCs (Shredders, Leapers, Bastions)
Shredder Gyro 5 Kill Shredders
Leaper Pulse Unit 10 Kill Leapers
Bastion Cell 5 Kill Bastions

Rewards: 1 Kinetic Converter, 3 Anvil Splitter Mods, 30 Raider Tokens, Shotgun Silencer Blueprint

Tips: Bring Wolfpacks, Hullcrackers, or Deadlines. Industrial zones have higher spawn rates for Leapers and Shredders. Bastions are tankier, so focus fire with your squad. Check out our enemy hunting guide for detailed strategies on each enemy.

Stage 4: Dominant Dangers

Queens are the second-toughest enemy in the game. You’ll need a squad.

Required Qty Where to Find
ARC Synthetic Resin 10 See our Arc Resin farming guide
Magnetic Accelerator 10 Large ARCs
Rocketeer Driver 8 Kill Rocketeers
Queen Reactor 3 Kill Queens (drop from leg armor plates)

Rewards: Bobcat IV, 5 Wolfpacks, 40 Raider Tokens, Bobcat Blueprint

Tips: Arc Synthetic Resin is the grind here. Farm Arc Probes and Snitches during Electromagnetic Storms for the best drop rates. For Queens, coordinate with your squad and aim for the leg armor plates to get the reactors.

Stage 5: Imposing Behemoths

Matriarchs are the toughest enemies in Arc Raiders. This is endgame content.

Required Qty Where to Find
Exodus Modules 5 Exodus-related facilities and equipment
Geiger Counter 3 Loot containers
Bombardier Cell 8 Kill Bombardiers
Matriarch Reactor 3 Kill Matriarchs

Rewards: 2 Snap Hooks, Aphelion, 50 Raider Tokens, Snap Hook Blueprint

Tips: Full squad is mandatory for Matriarchs. Bombardiers are slightly easier but still dangerous. If you’re struggling with Matriarchs, focus on Bombardier Cells first while building your squad and gear.

  • Howl Emote — Show off your hunting prowess

FAQ

Is the Trophy Display permanent?

Yes. It started January 27, 2026 and has no end date. Take your time with the grind.

What’s the hardest stage?

Stage 5 (Imposing Behemoths) requires killing Matriarchs, the toughest enemies in the game. Stage 4 is also challenging because Arc Synthetic Resin has low drop rates.

Can I solo the Trophy Display?

Stages 1-3 are soloable. Stage 4 and 5 require a squad for the Queen and Matriarch fights. You can solo farm most materials, but the boss kills need coordination.

What’s the best reward from the Trophy Display?

The Jupiter legendary weapon and the 300,000 coins from completion are the big prizes. The Bobcat IV from Stage 4 is also excellent if you don’t have one yet.
