Arc Raiders: Snapshot
| Detail | Info |
|---|---|
| Quest giver | Shani in Speranza |
| Map | Blue Gate (tunnels under the central Checkpoint) |

| Required item | Blue Gate Confiscation Room Key |

Pro tip: Put the key in your safe pocket before dropping in. If you die with it in your normal inventory, you’ll have to find another.

Step-by-Step Walkthrough
1. Reach the back of the tunnels. Head to the Checkpoint POI in the middle of the map. On the south side’s ground floor, where destroyed vehicles pile up, enter the tunnels through the massive gates. Keep left and walk straight to the back wall.
2. Scan an Android. Any Android at the back of the tunnels works. Watch for ARC units like Shredders along the way.
3. Reach the MANTIKOR locker room. Turn around from the Android, follow the path to the right, climb the small stairs to a door, then take the next stairs up. At the top, turn right to find the barricaded locker room door.
4. Search for clues. Inspect the mural in the locker room. Opening lockers alone won’t move the quest forward, and the mural also hints at where to go next.
5. Read the weighing logs. Find the weighing station and interact with it to read the last vehicle’s logs.
6. Enter the Confiscation Room. Use your key on the locked door under the MANTIKOR logo.
7. Transmit the recordings. Climb the rack or shelf in the middle of the room and interact with the white box to send MANTIKOR security’s last recordings to Shani.
Common Mistakes
| Problem | Fix |
|---|---|
| Objective won’t update | Make sure you inspected the mural, not just the lockers |
| Can’t reach the white box | Climb on top of the rack in the room first |
| Missing the key | Bring one, find the spare, or team up with a player who has one |
| Losing progress on death | Keep the key in your safe pocket |
Finishing Up
After transmitting the recordings, extract through an extraction point or raider hatch, then return to Shani in Speranza to claim your rewards. Don’t risk the completed quest by looting too aggressively on the way out.
