The Deciphering the Data quest in Arc Raiders sends you to Spaceport to investigate a series of Magnetic Decryptors, and pinpointing their exact positions can be trickier than it first appears. Fortunately, you’re in the right place. Below, we’ll walk you through precisely where to go and what to interact with so you can complete this mission for Shani without unnecessary confusion.
You don’t have to extract in order to finish Deciphering the Data—but it’s still a smart idea to bring a free kit. Other raiders are often working through the same objectives, and the last thing you want is to lose valuable gear if a firefight erupts while you’re focused on the terminals. Staying light and cautious can make the whole run far less stressful.
When you’re ready to tackle Deciphering the Data, follow the steps outlined below.
Your first objective in Deciphering the Data takes you to the Fuel Control building, positioned on the northeastern side of the Spaceport map. Once inside, you’ll quickly notice how dimly lit the interior is. Don’t hesitate to switch on your flashlight if visibility becomes an issue—it will make navigating the building much easier.
Inside the primary (and very dark) room, you’ll see numerous computer terminals scattered throughout the space. Along the southeast wall, however, there’s a distinct machine that stands out from the rest. This is the device you need to interact with to deploy the Magnetic Decryptor. After using it, you’ll receive a follow-up objective directing you toward the Arrival Building.
The Arrival Building sits on the northwestern side of Spaceport, meaning you’ll need to cross a fairly open stretch of terrain to reach it quickly. Be cautious while making this journey, as some players like to hold angles and snipe anyone attempting to traverse that exposed area. Move smartly, use cover when possible, and stay alert.
Once you reach the Arrival Building, make your way upstairs to the top floor. On this upper level, positioned against the north-by-northwest wall, you’ll find another set of machines. While these devices don’t look exactly like the one you interacted with in the Fuel Control building, they function in the same way for quest purposes. Interact with them to complete the final step of the objective.
With that done, the quest will be marked complete. You can extract using any elevator that remains operational. Keep in mind that extraction points are often watched by campers—especially during night raids—so take a moment to listen, clear angles, and choose your timing carefully. If you play it patiently and stay aware of your surroundings, you should be able to leave safely. Once back in Speranza, don’t forget to turn the quest in.
