Recommended Loadout
Light Weapon (Pistol or SMG)
Exploration quests have less direct combat but you still need something for self-defense. A lightweight weapon keeps your mobility high.
Smoke Grenades
Smoke grenades provide cover when crossing open ground or when you need to disengage from an unexpected fight near an objective.
Zipline
Ziplines speed up navigation between objectives spread across the map. Place them on high points to create shortcuts for return trips.

Map: The Spaceport
A massive pre-collapse launch facility now serving as a heavily contested zone. Industrial complexes, control towers, and open tarmac create a mix of close-quarters and long-range engagement areas. ARC presence is dense, with multiple turret emplacements and aerial patrols.
Interior corridors offer shelter from aerial threats but watch ceilings for Ticks. The control towers are common quest objective locations but are also heavily defended. Bring ranged weapons for the open sections.
