I’ve had my fair share of strange errands in Arc Raiders, but this bee mission takes the cake, and it somehow still fits into Celeste’s habit of chasing anything that might help rebuild the world. While tagging along with her might feel a bit unhinged at times, the run itself isn’t too bad, especially once you know where you’re going, and grabbing the hive ends up being simpler than you'd expect thanks to a tip‑off I picked up while sorting through ARC Raiders Items. The tricky part is just getting your bearings in Blue Gate without getting sidetracked by the usual chaos.

Finding Your Way Into the Grove

The target spot is the Olive Grove down in the southern stretch of Blue Gate, though the map doesn’t always make this obvious. Players often glance over it because the name only pops up when you zoom in closer than you’d think is necessary. Once you centre yourself around the main checkpoint area on the map, drop a line straight south and you’ll be roughly on the right track. You don’t need to fuss over what you’re carrying, since the bees don’t take up any inventory space, which always feels odd the first time you do it.

Staying Alive Long Enough To Look Around

What usually throws people off isn’t locating the area but sticking around long enough to search it. The Olive Grove is basically a magnet for trouble. Since it’s one of the better spots for grabbing apricots, olives and lemons for Scrappy’s upgrades, there’s a steady mix of players and patrols drifting through. I’ve bumped into Leapers lurking around the Ruined Homestead more times than I’d like to admit, and Rocketeers have a habit of wandering into the trees like they own the place. If you’re not watching your corners, someone or something will happily send you packing before you even start looking for the hive.

Pinpointing the Hive Itself

Once you actually reach the middle of the grove, the mission prompt tells you to search for hives, but the game’s idea of “search” is extremely broad. What you want is a shed‑like structure on the eastern side. It’s not much to look at—wire mesh walls, rusting metal roof, the whole setup feels abandoned. If you glance at the word Grove on your map, the shed sits just above the letters ve, which can save you a few minutes of wandering. As you walk up, listen for the buzzing; the sound kicks in before the hive comes into view. The hive hangs right at the entryway, and picking it up is instant. No boxes to lug around, no escorting anything back.

Wrapping Your Run and Getting Out Clean

After you grab the hive, the job’s effectively done, and you can make your way to whichever exfil point feels safest while keeping an eye out for stray patrols and overeager players. It’s a quick win once you know where to look, and it’s one of those quests that feels much easier the second time around, especially if you’re already farming materials or stocking up on cheap ARC Raiders Items.
