Hullcracker Blueprint
A quest-only blueprint with an important Expedition 5 twist.
The Hullcracker Blueprint is notable in ARC Raiders because it is quest-only — Embark's official 5th Expedition announcement specifically called it out as obtainable only through the quest line, and said an alternative method will be provided.
How to get it
Current verified source: through the quest line. The specific quest is the major quest chain ending in The Major's Footlocker (given by Tian Wen) — see Quest Blueprint Rewards for the verified table.
The Expedition 5 change
Because Expedition 5 makes quest reset optional, players who keep quest progress preserve their path to Hullcracker; players who reset re-earn it through the line. Embark also said an alternative acquisition method will be provided — the method and timing were not published, so this page does not invent them.
Crafting & use
Like other blueprints, once obtained the Hullcracker Blueprint unlocks crafting its item at the workbench. Exact recipe details are not printed here unless verified for the current version.
