ARC Raiders has a few large ARC enemies for players to challenge as they venture topside. From the Bastion to the Queen, there are a lot of them to keep track of, and even more spawn locations for all of them.

Whether you're looking to upgrade workshop stations or complete some trials, finding and killing Leapers can be tough. Mostly because of their ability to jump like you just walked into the wrong robotic neighborhood.

This guide will cover where to find Leapers on the Dam Battlegrounds map and some helpful places you can fight them to make it a bit easier on yourself. Always keep your eyes and ears peeled for these four-legged menaces because if you don't, they might get the jump on you.

Where to Find Leapers

ARC Raiders Leaper Locations

Leapers are pretty much all over the place. What can be really frustrating is how much ground they can cover. They patrol a significantly larger area than most other ARCs.

This can make it a bit annoying to find one when you don't know what those areas are. Have no fear, because now you'll have all the information you could ever want and more.

Hydroponic Dome Complex

This technically spans a large amount of the map, going from just outside the Hydroponic Dome Complex to The Breach. This is where you can find them most of the time.

If you can manage to lure it in with some shots towards one of the domes, you can shoot it while it's stuck outside. This makes it much easier to stay safe while getting plenty of shots in.

ARC will spawn almost continuously in this area, and Wasps and Hornets can get inside most domes.

Water Treatment Control

This one typically stalks around the exfil station in this location and will be a menace if you aren't prepared to face it. It can venture a bit away from the exfil, but it mostly walks between Water Treatment Control and the Primary Facility.

Just south of the exfil station is an area with no walls and a roof. This is the perfect spot to lure the Leaper. It will try to get under the small roof and often ends up totally stuck.

Even if you go down while fighting it, you can still summon the elevator, and all the ARC will ignore you.

Testing Annex

Leapers are unusual in some aspects due to their size and mobility. For this location, it can travel around between the Control Tower and Testing Annex, but there is something very interesting about this location.

If you can manage to get it stuck in the spot by the broken gates near the underground entrance, it has a chance of exploding. It'll look like a normal attack, but then it just falls apart.

High-risk, high-reward. This locked room is in a dangerous area filled with ARCs and alarms. Here's a detailed guide on how to get inside safely.

The Lake

A bit more on the rare side, but definitely worth checking out, since they usually survive a long time in this spot is the lake part of the map. On the far right side of the map, between the two Raider Hatches, you'll often see it trudging out in the water.

About halfway between the two hatches is a busted building that you can use to hide in and get shots off. There's only one side for it to come in from, so you don't need to worry about other directions, thankfully.
