Some quests in Arc Raiders feel like they were written by someone who's never had to sprint for an extract with a busted backpack. Tian Wen's "The Major's Footlocker" is one of them. You're told to find a memento for her mother in the Dam Battlegrounds, and that's basically it. No clear landmark, no "go here," just vibes. Still, you'll want to do it, because the reward pushes your loadout forward, and if you're already thinking about gearing up, it's worth knowing where to look for ARC Raiders Items that actually change how fights go.
Where you're actually going
Queue into Dam Battlegrounds and stop fixating on the dam itself. A lot of people waste time there, then get pinched in the open. Your real target is northwest: Ruby Residence. It's an apartment cluster, and it tends to attract both quest runners and opportunists. You're looking for the building on the far-left edge of the group. It's a three-story red block that's easy to spot once you're close, even if the area's a little messy from previous fights.
The fastest route inside
Once you're at Ruby Residence, don't do the "check every room" routine. That's how you get caught staring at drawers while someone lines up a free shot. Get inside the red building and head up. First floor, second floor, keep moving. You want the third floor, and you want it quickly, but not loudly. Footsteps carry, and this is a known quest stop, so assume someone's either already there or on their way.
Grabbing the mementos without throwing the run
On the top floor, look for a room with an open window. Near that window is an interactable box. It's not flashy, and that's the point—people miss it when they panic. Loot it and you'll get Major Aiva's mementos. Then do the part most players forget in the adrenaline: open your inventory and move the item into your Safe Pocket right away. Don't "wait till you're outside." Don't "do it after this hallway." Do it immediately, because dying on the stairs is painfully common.
Extraction plan that doesn't rely on luck
After it's secured, you've got two sensible options: take a quick exit if you've got a key that fits your route, or slow-play back to a standard extraction while avoiding the main sightlines. If you hear shooting, don't chase it—this isn't that kind of trip. Get back to Speranza, hand in the quest, and enjoy having a real answer to armored ARC units instead of dumping mags and praying. And if you're tweaking your kit around that new blueprint, it helps to keep an eye on rsvsr ARC Raiders Items so you're not walking in underprepared for the next run.Upgrade your ARC Raiders loadout instantly with powerful items from RSVSR, delivered fast and always secure.
