In the world of Arc Raiders, quests are the core of your progression, not only providing valuable rewards but also deepening the narrative that unfolds around you. One such quest is A Symbol of Unification, given by Celeste, a key figure in the story. This quest is both symbolic and practical, tying into the larger theme of solidarity and survival in a post-apocalyptic world where hope is often tethered to small, meaningful symbols. In this article, we'll break down everything you need to know to ARC Raiders BluePrints complete this quest efficiently and reap the rewards.

Quest Overview

Quest Giver: Celeste

Objective: Raise a flag at the Formicai Outpost in Dam Battlegrounds

Location: Dam Battlegrounds

Rewards: Aviator Outfit (Dusted Cream Color), 3x Mod Components, 5x Duct Tape

The Story Behind the Quest

When you meet Celeste, she shares a personal story of a time when her group had a flag-more a ragged piece of cloth than a true banner, but it was enough. The flag represented unity, solidarity, and the presence of allies. It was a way of saying, "You're not alone." In a world ravaged by the Arc Raiders, those moments of unity are precious, often fleeting, and yet crucial for survival. This quest is an homage to those small symbols that bind people together in a fractured world.

As Celeste reflects on the flag's significance, she decides it's time to raise a similar flag once more, but this time, at a key location: the Formicai Outpost. It's here that you'll set out to complete her mission, honoring the past while forging ahead for a brighter future.

Preparation: Loadout and Strategy

This quest shines for solo play, rated low-threat due to its remote location. Dam Battlegrounds features rusty dams, swamps, and ARC-infested ruins; expect Probes, Couriers, and occasional Queens.

Recommended Loadout:

Armor: Light or Medium for mobility (e.g., Scavenger set). Stealth mods reduce detection.

Primary Weapon: SMG or AR like the Viper for close-quarters outpost clears (Common rarity suffices).

Secondary: Pistol for emergencies.

Gadgets: 2-3 Adrenaline Shots for hill climbs; Lure Grenade to distract ARC; Medkits x3.

Free Loadout Option: Use Speranza's free gear to minimize loss risk.

Spawn near southern POIs like Scrap Yard or Wreckage for quick access, but beware player hotspots for mushroom farming. Travel light-overencumbrance slows you. Enable crouch-walking for stealth; ARC patrols are sparse here. Squad up if new, but solo is viable in cheap ARCR Coins 5-10 minutes. Extract via Red Lakes Balcony lift northeast-watch for campers.
