The first goal is to deliver one Hornet driver. To do this you need to take down a Hornet on Topside. These are very common to find, and you will most likely run into one within a minute or two of spawning. If you don't see one nearby, an easier way to spawn them on most open maps is to look for one Knuckle.

These are ARCs flying high in the sky, searching the area for Raiders. You have to shoot the Snitch without destroying it so that it summons other ARCs, one of which will be a Hornet. Loot the Hornet, and it should have the driver, which you can place in your Safe Pocket.

You can also use a Snitch Scanner if you have one on you to call down flying ARCs.

Destroy a Fireball ARC Raiders

The next item you need is Fireball burnerthat fall from Fireballs. These are mainly found inside buildings and other places. If you are on Buried city map you can try your luck on Hospital or Research Build, or check subways, as fireballs are sometimes found on broken escalators or platforms. Stella Montis is also a good place to find Fireballs, but you won't encounter as many flying ARCs as needed for the mission there. Loot the fireball for the burner and move on to the next objective.

The last two objectives are all about finding one Fireflydestroy it and get the Firefly Burner. Fireflies are among the enemies added after the initial launch of the game and are more heavily armored than regular flying ARCs. To deal with them, focus on the yellow capsule or armor plates on the side using a weapon with high ARC penetration.

Once destroyed, loot it to find the Burner and deliver all three items to Apollo to receive:

  • Fireworks Box Blueprint
  • Locator Grenade x3
  • Blaze Grenade x3
