ARC Raiders The Major's Footlocker: Major Aiva's Mementos Location

Complete A Symbol Of Unification before looking for The Major's Footlocker in Tian Wen's quest list. Once it is available, accept it before entering Dam Battlegrounds so the Ruby Residence container can count for the objective.

• Complete A Symbol Of Unification.
• Deploy to Dam Battlegrounds.
• Bring an augment with a safe pocket because the mementos must leave the raid with you.
• Optionally bring a Raider Hatch Key if you want to use the nearby Sunroof Hatch.

Ruby Residence is a contested apartment area, so a free loadout is a poor fit when the quest item itself has to survive extraction.

Major Aiva's Mementos are inside Ruby Residence, northwest of the Dam and north of Ben Welder's Sunroof.

1. Enter the western apartment block at Ruby Residence and clear enough space to search safely.
2. Move through the apartments until you reach the rear room with a desk.
3. Search the box on the desk to make Major Aiva's Mementos drop into the room.
4. Pick up the mementos from the desk or floor; the container interaction alone does not complete the pickup.

Tian Wen's dialogue also mentions the Pale Apartments, but use Ruby Residence for the reliable objective route.

If the mementos are visible but the pickup will not register, reposition directly over the table and interact again. The item can sit at an awkward pickup angle after it drops.

1. Confirm the box has already been searched and the quest item is physically present.
2. Climb onto the table or desk beside the item.
3. Aim down at the mementos and retry the pickup prompt from close range.
4. Redeploy only if the item still cannot be collected, because the quest must be finished in one round.

Safe-pocket the mementos immediately, then choose an exit that avoids unnecessary fighting.

• Sunroof Hatch: the closest fast option if you have a Raider Hatch Key.
• Central Swamp Lift: a strong default because it keeps the route away from some of the busiest Raider traffic.
• North Complex Elevator: a workable alternative when the northern route is cleaner.

If the mementos are not protected and you die before they leave the raid, you have to repeat the collection run.

The Hullcracker fires explosive projectiles with very high ARC armour penetration, making it useful against heavy machines such as Leapers, Rocketeers and the Queen. Crafting requires a level 3 Gunsmith plus 1x Magnetic Accelerator, 1x Exodus Module and 3x Heavy Gun Parts.

The Major Aiva thread continues elsewhere in the quest line. Echoes of Victory Ridge also centers on Major Aiva through her patch and gives useful story context for Tian Wen's mother and her role in the Raider resistance.
