To open the base entrance to the Fallen Emperor on Pendola Pass, you need one Emperor Gateway Conduit. The most consistently reported way to get one is to find its blueprint and three couplers in Emperor Payloads during Redirection, then craft it at Workbench I. Payload drops are random, and no verified drop rate or guaranteed run count has been published.
What you need to open the Fallen Emperor
The reported door prompt requires one Emperor Gateway Conduit. To craft it, learn the Emperor Gateway Conduit Blueprint and gather one of each of these materials:

Recent guides report that the blueprint and couplers can appear in Emperor Payloads during Redirection on Pendola Pass. The reported sequence is:

- ARC Raiders Deluxe Edition includes the base game and the following content: The Wanderer Set, including the following cosmetic items: “Valente” Outfit" “Pathfinder” Backpack,“Blanket Roll” Backpack Attachment.
- Plus: Character Cosmetic, Finger Gun Rapid Fire Emote, Cowboy Scrappy Body Type and Skin, 2 400 Raider Tokens.
- Queue for Pendola Pass while the Redirection condition is active.
- Look for an active Damaged Emperor Relay. Guides report that it may be marked on the map or visible as a red beam.
- Interact with the relay to obtain an Emperor Beacon.
- Move to a suitable open area and deploy the beacon.
- Wait for the payload to crash, then search it for the blueprint and couplers.
This sequence comes from recent secondary guide reporting, not an official route confirmation; relay locations, event details, and loot can change with patches. The guides do not publish drop odds, so there is no reliable estimate of how many payloads you will need. Be prepared to repeat the run.
Learn the blueprint and craft the conduit
Once you have the blueprint and all three couplers, learn the blueprint and use Workbench I to craft the conduit. Having the materials alone is not enough if the blueprint has not been learned.
Check the possible Reward Pass shortcut
One guide claims that tier 60 of the Frozen Trail Reward Pass grants a ready-to-use conduit. Other recent guides describe the crafting route but do not confirm that reward, and an official current reward list was not available in the reviewed material. Check the in-game pass rewards before planning around this shortcut; the payload-and-crafting route is the more consistently reported option.
Prepare for the Emperor interior
After crafting the conduit, take it to the entrance door at the base of the Fallen Emperor on Pendola Pass and follow the prompt to open it. The interior is described as a dangerous, dungeon-like area, with Amplification Modules among the notable rewards.
One guide suggests bringing a Grappling Hook or Snap Hook for traversal, but the available guidance does not establish either as mandatory. Plan for traversal, combat, and a safe extraction rather than assuming a particular loadout or a fully mapped route. Recent guides say the interior layout, threats, and loot details are still being documented.
