Where to go

Objective approach

No per-difficulty item manifest is recorded for this guide. Follow the on-screen tracker, then use the notes below to decide what to stage before committing to the final hand-in.

• Read the objective tracker after every major interaction; many ICARUS prospects reveal the next step only after the current one completes.
• Stage resources at the hand-in or build site before triggering final timers, wildlife waves, or extraction travel.
• If the guide has a manifest above, build the Hard list first when possible; it covers lower-difficulty planning and avoids under-packing.
• Keep the return route open. A finished objective still fails the run if the crew cannot safely reach the dropship or delivery pod.

Preparation

• Start with a bedroll, campfire or shelter kit, oxygen and water storage, bandages, splints, and enough food to cover the full route.
• Assign one player to navigation and one to resource accounting so the crew does not duplicate long hauls or miss a delivery line.
• Use the loadout list below as the minimum kit, then add mission-specific tools before launch.

Hazards and controls

• No special hazard is recorded, so default to storm shelter, wound treatment, spare tools, and enough ammunition for unexpected predators.
• Long travel remains the risk: mark caves, water, and emergency shelter locations as you move.

Execution checklist

• Before drop: confirm prerequisite unlocks, mission timer, loadout, and who carries shared deployables.
• On landing: locate water, set a respawn point, and confirm the first objective marker before building a permanent base.
• Mid-run: consolidate loot and mission items at one marked cache; keep one repair kit and medical stack on each player.
• Before extract: verify every optional delivery, reward unlock, and follow-up objective is complete before leaving orbit-side cargo behind.

Hints & tips

• This mission is part of the Garganutan Great Hunt chain. Missions within a chain can be completed in various orders, but the Final Hunt requires completing prerequisite missions.
• 30-day time limit is generous. Great Hunt missions allow extended preparation time. Use it to build a solid base and gather resources.
• Exotic deposits spawn on these missions. Use the extended time to mine exotics alongside completing objectives.
