The Nomadic Envoys arrive in Speranza as the Forgotten Relics event and Converging Paths project launch, tasking Raiders with recovering relics to unlock the Saltwalker Outfit and up to 300 Raider Tokens.
Live Update 1.33.0, "Forgotten Relics," was a content update centered on new collectible relics and the systems around hunting them down. It set up several threads the later Nomadic Envoys season built on.
Relics and rewards
Forgotten Relics leaned into ARC Raiders' scavenging identity — rare, high-value finds scattered across the maps that reward players who explore off the obvious routes. If you like the treasure-hunt loop, this is the update that expanded it.
The event in practice
Forgotten Relics runs on Merits: every 100 XP converts to one automatically, and extracting relics pays bonus Merits on top — nine relics from a Common Train Model at 10 Merits to the Legendary Elephant Obelisk at 150. They spawn as random container loot with the best odds in residential districts, and at half a kilo each there's never a reason to leave one behind.
The 21-step reward track tops out at 3,150 Merits with the Skull Pantomime emote; the Saltwalker outfit lands early at 150. The Converging Paths project runs alongside it — six stages of donations and ARC-damage objectives paying 300 Raider Tokens and the Bobcat II among its rewards.
