Best Setup for Legendary Hunting in Arc Raiders

Legendary weapons are the ultimate prizes in Arc Raiders, and the wiki lists a crafting recipe for the Jupiter, the Equalizer, the Aphelion and the Dolabra. What you hunt is the blueprint, and the wiki places those inside the Harvester, the Queen's core and the ARC Assessor and on Stella Montis. Embark's Live Update 2.3.0 notes say the Dolabra, Equalizer and Jupiter blueprints can now drop in any major map condition, with a slightly lower drop chance.

How Legendaries Are Obtained

The legendary weapons on file, the Jupiter, the Equalizer, the Aphelion and the Dolabra, are each crafted at the Gunsmith level 3 from its own blueprint, and each weapon's page lists the materials.

Gear for the Hardest Raids

Bring your best gear: an epic weapon such as the Tempest, the Heavy Shield for survivability, and full healing supplies. You need every advantage against the ARC that guard those blueprints.

Risk Management

The raids that hold those blueprints are also where you are most likely to lose everything. Manage your risk by extracting as soon as you have what you came for rather than pushing for more. A blueprint in your base storage is worth infinitely more than one you are carrying when you die.

Team Legendary Hunts

Running these raids with a team improves your odds: teams protect each other during the fight and the extraction. A blueprint benefits whoever picks it up, so agree loot rules before the raid begins.
