    Overview

    This guide will walk you through the fastest method to defeat the 'Queen' boss netting you a massive 48,000 XP per kill. The strategy relies on precise placement of Blaze Grenade Traps and an Anvil weapon for easily shooting them. While possible solo, it's safer with a teammate to guard against third parties.

    Step 1: Preparation

    • You will need two Blaze Grenade Traps for this method. Ensure they are the 'Traps' and not regular 'Grenades'.
    • Blaze Grenade Traps can be found during free loadout runs or by surrendering repeatedly until you acquire them.
    • It's highly recommended to bring a Raider's Key, as it helps with extraction.
    • Playing in a duo or trio is advised to protect against other players, as solo runs can easily be third-partied.

    Step 2: Locating the Queen

    The Queen can be found on any map, but this guide demonstrates the process on the Blue Gate map. It's crucial to identify the Queen's location early in your raid.

    • Open your map to locate the Queen's general area. Look for 'Harvester' on your map. Map Location - Blue Gate
    • Navigate towards the Queen's location, being mindful of your surroundings and potential enemy players.
    • As you approach, observe the Queen's movement. It typically rotates in a circular pattern.
    • The primary threat around the Queen is often the 'Rocketeer', so ensure it's not directly in your path or moving away.

    Step 3: Approaching and Placing Traps

    The key to this strategy is to approach the Queen without aggroing it and correctly placing your traps.

    • Approach the Queen from behind or a side where it won't detect you. Since it rotates, you can usually stay out of its line of sight. Approaching Queen from Behind
    • Eliminate any nearby Wasps (flying drones) that could compromise your stealth. A suppressed weapon is recommended. Shooting a Wasp
    • Locate the specific weak spot on the underside of the Queen's body. You'll want to place the traps directly into this area.
    • Put your Blaze Grenade Traps into your quick-use slots for easy access. Consider moving them to your 'Safe Pocket' in case you die, to retain them.
    • Carefully climb up to the Queen's body. Climbing to Queen's Underbelly
    • Place the first Blaze Grenade Trap so it is lodged inside the Queen's body, not falling to the ground. Placing First Trap
    • Place a second Blaze Grenade Trap in the same manner. This ensures maximum damage and a one-shot kill.

    Step 4: Executing the Kill

    Once the traps are placed, a single shot will detonate them and initiate the kill.

    • Once both traps are in place, aim your Anvil weapon at the traps and fire. Placing First Trap
    • The traps will ignite, causing massive damage to the Queen. You will see a large fire and an explosion effect.
    • Watch for the XP notification on the left side of your screen, confirming you've received 48,000 XP. Queen Destroyed & XP Gained

    Step 5: Loot and Extraction

    After successfully taking down the Queen, it's time to collect your rewards and safely extract.

    • Approach the fallen Queen and loot all the valuable items from its core. Ensure you loot everything for additional XP.
    • Be extremely cautious during looting, as the sound of the Queen's demise will attract other players.
    • Head to a nearby extraction point, such as the Checkpoint or Raider's Hatch, depending on your team's key status.
    • The guide shows heading to a nearby petrol station to regroup and prepare for extraction.
    • Remain vigilant for other players who may be lurking around extraction zones.
    • Successfully extract from the raid, securing your XP and valuable loot. Extraction Point Reached
