ARC Raiders Guides Pinpoint Supply Call Stations and Update Tactics for High-Risk Drops

Recent walkthroughs verify the flare-to-parachute sequence, with fixed station spots players can route to each run.

Overview

  • Calling a drop requires using a Supply Call Station console, after which a flare marks the direction and a crate arrives by balloon in about 45 seconds.
  • Stations are small antenna towers that only show on the map at close range, so close-up exploration and prior scouting help locate them reliably.
  • Dam Battlegrounds features 10 fixed stations, including the Hydroponic Dome Complex and sites near Water Treatment Control, Loading Bay, Red Lakes and the Power Generation Complex.
  • Buried City offers several dependable locations such as West Village, a rooftop by the central highway, eastern buried buildings and south of New District near Security.
  • Drops contain ammo, healing and weapons in probe-like tubes that must be breached, and they often draw ARC machines and rival players, so squads should cover the loot, move quickly and use them to progress the A Better Use quest.
