You don't need to extract to complete A Warm Place to Rest, but you will be trekking across the entire Buried City map to complete the objectives. With this in mind, a free loadout may not be your best bet, as you're rather likely to encounter raiders or ARC, which means you'll probably need extra healing items. It's your choice, of course, but we'd recommend bringing a decent gun or two, and enough heals to keep you trucking along safely.

Speaking of firefights, the locked room of Control Tower A6 tends to contain really good loot, so other raiders will often contest this location. If you're lucky, your visit to Control Tower A6 may end up quiet. But there's always a chance that you'll need to take someone out, so come prepared. When you're ready to tackle Lost in Transmission, follow the steps below. Visit Control Tower A6 Control Tower A6 is located in the lower middle of Spaceport. It's a tall, easily identifiable tower.

You don't necessarily need to extract to complete this quest, so no need to worry about bringing in your best gear or a safe pocket. You can feel comfortable going in with a free loadout to avoid risking any of your hard-earned items at the relatively busy spot you'll need to visit to finish your objectives. When you're ready to knock out the Untended Garden quest, follow the steps below.

In Arc Raiders, running out of health doesn't mean instant death but rather falling belly-first to the ground, able only to crawl at a brutally slow pace while a timer ticks down until your complete death. You can no longer access your inventory, there's no way to heal yourself with your bandages, and your only hopes are to reach an escape hatch or be revived by a fellow player.

Like many on Twitch, TheBurntPeanut streams for long stretches - often over seven hours at a time - while playing the popular game "Arc Raiders." It's not unusual for 75,000-plus concurrent fans to tune in to watch him dancing, chatting, and cursing out his competitors while gaming. The man behind TheBurntPeanut has not yet disclosed his name or appearance. That's a long-standing tradition for some gamers, who often show their screens instead of their own faces, and especially for VTubers.

Redditor dreamthorp posted a 16-second clip of the incident on the Arc Raiders subreddit on January 3. They said they were playing a night raid on the Dam Battlegrounds, the game's very first map. While trying to extract from an elevator, a Leaper reportedly pounced on and downed them before the elevator doors shut. "I just wanted to get stabilized so I could leave," dreamthorp said in the comments of their Reddit post. It's at this point that they started screaming, "Somebody help me."

There are many who see the ability to kill and be killed by other players are vital for the game's tension and enjoyment. There are others who argue it's antithetical to the conventions of a game in which a scant, brave few are trying to bring back resources to those living underground. Either way, Arc Raiders players have reached a fascinating and fragile understanding in which most people, most of the time, don't kill.

I'm genuinely shocked by how much I love ARC Raiders. I've never been very interested in the whole PvE (Player vs. Environment) genre, aside from some brief stints with Destiny, but ARC Raiders's sci-fi post-apocalyptic vibe just works for me. I love the Blade Runner/anime-like aesthetic of its environments, enemies and outfits. I'm a sucker for its synthy soundtrack and immersive soundscape.

The Deciphering the Data quest in Arc Raiders sends you to Spaceport to check out some Magnetic Decryptors, and finding exactly where they're located can be a bit of a challenge. However, you've come to the right place, as we'll tell you exactly where you can find both locations you need to interact with to complete this quest from Shani.

If you've come across the Paving the Way quest in Arc Raiders, you're likely looking for an ENELICA building or wondering where to find some research notes. You've come to the right place, as we've got each step of Paving the Way listed out for you below. Just be aware that this quest requires you to visit two separate maps, so it's going to take a bit of time and effort to wrap it up.

The first step to completing A Toxic Trail in Arc Raiders is to head back to the drain where you previously found the barrel for the Source of the Contamination quest. This barrel can be found outside the Water Treatment Center on the Dam Battlegrounds map by approaching from the north via the swamp. Check the map below for the exact spot.

I'm a humble man with simple needs. It turns out what I really look for in games is a really good bumpity-bumpity-bumpity noise while sliding down a flight of stairs. If it weren't already packed with a squillion other good reasons, this would still be enough on its own to have me booting up Arc Raiders. Let's not mince words: sliding down a flight of stairs is great.

Extraction shooters are eager to take everything away from you. And though Arc Raiders has proven to be a more friendly approach with its multiple paths of progression, dying at the end of a successful run still sucks. Getting pushed 99 percent of the way to failure and then surviving, however, is a feeling like no other. As more folks pour into Arc Raiders ' servers to hopefully extract and craft their way to glory,

Knowing that you'll have a lot of traveling and surviving to do on Spaceport for the A Lay of the Land quest, we'd recommend you bring guns you're comfortable with, as well as plenty of healing items. Additionally, it's a great idea to bring in an augment that has a safe pocket, as you'll need to extract with a specific item to complete the quest back in Speranza.

Each Arc Raiders map has a few intriguing puzzles to figure out, and they'll usually provide you with some nice loot for solving them. For instance, if you've come across the Ancient Fort POI on the Blue Gate map, you may have noticed a cellar door and some electrical boxes scattered around. This puzzle is easy to complete in theory, but the random battery locations add a sense of randomness to the equation.

Dropped into a multiplayer world overrun with hostile drones and military robots, every human player is at the mercy of the machines and each other. Can you trust the other raider you've spotted on your way back to humanity's safe haven underground, or will they shoot you and take everything you've just scavenged? Perhaps surprisingly, humanity is (mostly) choosing to band together, according to most people I've talked to about this game.

If you've accepted the Our Presence Up There quest in Arc Raiders, you'll need to visit the Pattern House on Dam Battlegrounds and perform a few quick tasks. It's a relatively straightforward quest, but knowing where each objective is located can make things move much more quickly--which can be important in a high-traffic area like the Pattern House. You don't need to extract to complete Our Presence Up There, but you'll be pretty close to an extraction point.

To unlock rewards during the Staking Our Claim event, you'll need to earn XP in matches. For every 100 XP earned, you are granted 1 Merit. You'll need a total of 3,600 Merits to collect everything in the event--and though this may sound like a major undertaking, XP comes pretty quickly when looting and killing enemies in raids, so it's likely to take you less time than you think.

This perk is the only way you can open the game's Security Lockers, extra loot boxes containing additional equipment that spawns within high-loot areas. The rewards in these Security Lockers were so good that folks across the game's community were asking for Embark Studios to nerf the perk. The developer has listened, confirming in the game's official Discord server that it has "adjusted the security lockers because they were over-providing valuable items."

The shooting, made more high-stakes thanks to the thrill of protecting your gear, is a blast. But I'm also quite fond of how the game is handling its live-service nature, from rotating map challenges like Night Raids that make the world feel more lively, to launching its first community event. Right now players are actively contributing resources to collectively unlock its new map, Stella Montis which, at the time of writing, sits at under 10-percent unlocked.

While PvP may sound most dangerous when you think about an extraction shooter, Arc Raiders may change your mind. You'll come into contact with a wide variety of ARC, robotic enemies, that can do devastating damage and quickly send you back to Speranza with nothing to show for it. Below, we'll detail every enemy you can encounter in Arc Raiders and how to deal with them.
