# ARC Raiders: Last Entry Quest Guide
The “Last Entry” quest in ARC Raiders throws you back into the brutal world of Stella Montis. It’s bleak, it’s dangerous, and honestly? That’s the point. You’re here to navigate ruins, survive the Shredders, and grab whatever loot you can find.
Here’s how to handle the environment and make it out in one piece.
## Mission Overview: The Return to Stella Montis
This mission is all about atmosphere. You’re dropping into a region where the environment wants you dead just as much as the machines do. The whole “reluctant Raiders” thing in the narrative feels like a nod to players who are either learning the ropes for the first time or coming back after a break.
Your main goal here isn’t racking up kills. It’s about surviving and understanding what can actually kill you.
## Location Intel: The Ruins of Stella Montis
Let’s be clear—Stella Montis isn’t a safe zone. The quest talks about “desolate ruins” and a “cold wind,” and that’s not just flavor text. This place is unforgiving.
* **Navigation:** The terrain is broken and cover is hard to come by. I’ve found that the ruins have a lot of verticality and debris, so watch where you step and keep checking your angles.
* **Visibility:** Everything feels muted and bleak here. Use the terrain to break line-of-sight with enemies instead of trying to fight them in open areas. You don’t want to be caught out in the open.
## Threat Assessment: The Shredders
The quest text mentions “mechanical whirrs and Shredder sirens.” That sound? It’s your warning system.
### Identifying the Threat
Shredders are your main problem in this sequence. The sirens mean they’re alert and actively patrolling, which forces you to slow down and move carefully instead of rushing through.
### Combat Strategy
1. **Listen First:** Before you even see them, you’ll hear that mechanical whirr. When you do, stop moving and figure out where they’re coming from.
2. **Avoid the Siren:** If a siren goes off, you’ve been spotted or a patrol’s been alerted. Get behind hard cover in the ruins immediately.
3. **Resource Management:** The line about “desperate scavengers search in vain” isn’t just dramatic—it’s a hint. Loot is scarce here. Don’t dump all your ammo into extended firefights if you can just evade the Shredders instead.
## Extraction Tips
“Last Entry” is meant to feel desperate. To make sure you actually get something out of this run:
* **Loot Quickly:** Don’t linger in the open. Grab what you can and move.
* **Stick to Cover:** Use the ruins to mask your movement from those siren-screaming Shredders.
* **Prioritize Survival:** This quest is all about a “reluctant” return. Living to fight another day? That’s the real win here.
