The Arcovan organization has begun to go against the Hierarchy at every turn, blatantly breaking laws simply to frustrate the government. The separatist organization began to develop and make use of AI at a large-scale and even used them for much of their military force. Arcovan also began to make allies with criminal organizations and assimilated many small bands of the Blue Suns organization and vorcha from Omega. An even greater surprise is the Arcovan's ability to garner the support of small krogan mercenary bands and lone freelance commandos.
