How to find and open a Deforester Husk in ARC Raiders

The demand for finding the remains of a Deforester Husk has increased in ARC Raiders post the Headwinds update launch, and it’s for pretty good reason.

These gigantic remains of massive ARCs are different from the more common First Husks. If you aim to complete A Prime Specimen quest, you’ll need to find and loot one. Here’s where you can find one.

Deforester Husk location in ARC Raiders

As of writing, there are two known locations of the Deforester Husk. Both locations are present on the Blue Gate map. I have marked the locations on the image below.

Once at either location, you should be able to spot the remains quite easily. The massive size makes the Husks pretty easy to spot in the open. Spotting them is only one part of the task, though, as you’ll also need to open and loot them.

For this part of the task, you’ll need to bring at least 2 ARC Powercells. To get ARC Powercells, you have to destroy ARC enemies and then loot their leftovers. You can also bring a few from your base inventory if you have them.

When entering the Deforester Husk, you’ll find an interactable panel on your left. Before you reach the next panel, a wave of fire will try to roast you.

Avoid it at all costs, and go through. Interact with the second panel, and you have opened the Deforester Husk.

Exit the Husk and crawl up to reach the lootable area. Go straight and jump to find the lootable area. You can simply search and grab all the items you find. However, be prepared to meet enemies at these spots since other players might also be trying to complete the A Prime Specimen quest.
