A mysterious harvesting machine has appeared, heavily guarded by the feared Queen. What kind of riches are to be found within?
Harvester is a map modifier that adds a Harvester structure at a fixed location on each map, guarded by The Queen.
Puzzle
To complete it, you’ll need to breach the containers along the top of the Harvester and collect 3 total Fusion Cores. One Fusion Core should spawn on the ground in the center. After you’ve gathered all three, go to the base in the middle and insert all 3 Fusion Cores.
Once the cores are installed, 12 pulsating yellow targets appear around the outer ring. Shoot and destroy them to progress (their HP is WIP, roughly ~100). When all targets are destroyed, the Harvester opens and reveals 1–3 blueprints these are always Equalizer or Jupiter.
Harvester State
Before inserting Fusion Cores:
The Harvester will periodically launch a capsule upward. During this sequence, the inside fills with fire. You’ll get a warning right before it happens: the door opens and the interior glows yellow.
After inserting Fusion Cores:
The Harvester alternates between capsule launches and a shock attack. The shock doesn’t damage health directly, but it can stun-lock Raiders and drain shields. The warning is similar, but the color shifts to blue, and you’ll see electricity pulsing in the center.
Loot Pool
After all targets are destroyed, both capsules and shock attacks stop.
