The Phantom Targets event is entering its final stretch, which means Raiders who have been putting off the remaining objectives need to start prioritizing rewards. With only the final 24–48 hours available, there is no room for inefficient farming or unnecessary extraction attempts.

The Phantom Targets content has several layers, including the temporary Player Project and the separate event focused on the strange Glitched Wasps. The Player Project runs through September 6, while the event also offers its own reward track for participating in the Wasp investigation.

1. Check Your Phantom Targets Progress First

Before entering another raid, open the Phantom Targets objectives and check exactly which stages are still incomplete.

The Player Project contains six stages. Early objectives involve upgrading Cargo Elevator antennas and testing unusual ARC parts, while later stages focus on Glitched Wasp components and fireworks damage against flying ARC.

This matters during the final hours because there is little value in repeating an objective that has already been completed. Make a short checklist and focus exclusively on unfinished requirements.

2. Finish the Easy Rewards Before Farming

If you still have the early stages available, complete the straightforward objectives first.

The opening stage requires three Cargo Elevator antenna upgrades and rewards useful equipment, including a Combat Mk. 3 augment, Heavy Shield, and Vita Spray.

The next stage requires damage with Pop Triggers, Wasp Drivers, and Leaper Pulse Units. Completing it rewards Raider Tokens alongside the Aphelion, Dolabra, and Jupiter weapons.

These rewards are worth prioritizing because they provide permanent value beyond the event itself.

3. Clear the Fire, Energy, and Launcher Tasks

The third stage is another priority if it remains unfinished. It requires 1,500 fire damage against ARC enemies, three qualifying ARC kills with energy weapons, and 20 flying ARC destroyed using launcher ammunition.

Do not attempt to complete everything with one loadout. Bring a dedicated fire weapon for the damage requirement, an energy weapon for the larger ARC targets, and a launcher setup for flying enemies.

Keeping enough ARC Raiders Items in storage can make this stage much easier because you will not have to interrupt your farming session every time you run short on ammunition or supporting materials.

4. Do Not Ignore the Glitched Wasp StagesBlue

The later Phantom Targets stages are centered around Glitched Wasp technology. These objectives require specific quantities of Glitched ARC components, so inventory space becomes extremely important.

Before starting a farming run, clear unnecessary items from your backpack and storage. The goal is to collect the required components as efficiently as possible instead of filling your inventory with unrelated loot.

Stages 4 and 5 each require multiple sets of Glitched Wasp materials, while the final stage asks players to deal 100 damage to flying ARC using Fireworks.

5. Claim the Final Player Project Rewards

Completing the final stage is particularly important because it unlocks the final reward package. The completion rewards include the Computer Mouse Backpack Charm, Crash Mat blueprint, Anvil IV, and Anvil Splitter.

These are the rewards you should not leave until the final few minutes. If you still need several stages, prioritize progression over normal loot and avoid unnecessary PvP fights.

6. Event Rewards: Anomalia Outfit and More

The separate Phantom Targets event has its own reward incentives. Raiders participating in the Wasp investigation can earn the Anomalia Outfit, Finger Guns Wave emote, Trashpile Bag, and Raider Tokens.

If your main goal is collecting limited-time cosmetics, these should be treated as must-have rewards rather than optional extras.

Final 24–48 Hour Checklist

Before the event closes, make sure you have:

• Completed all available Phantom Targets Player Project stages
• Claimed the Anomalia Outfit
• Claimed the Finger Guns Wave emote
• Claimed the Trashpile Bag
• Collected all available Raider Tokens
• Finished the Glitched Wasp material requirements
• Completed the final Fireworks objective
• Claimed the final weapon and gear rewards
• Checked your event progress before your final extraction

The final hours are not the time for ambitious loot runs. Enter with a clear objective, carry only the equipment you need, and extract once meaningful progress has been secured.

If you are missing basic supplies, preparing additional ARC Items before your final sessions can save several unnecessary trips. More importantly, do not risk completed progress by chasing players or taking fights that have nothing to do with the event.

Phantom Targets is designed around investigation, ARC combat, and the strange behavior of the Wasps. With the deadline approaching, the smartest strategy is simple: finish the unfinished stages, collect every limited reward, and get out.

Once the event closes, these limited-time objectives and their associated rewards may no longer be available in the same form, making the final 24–48 hours the best time to clean up anything still sitting unfinished.
