Arc Raiders Power Out Quest Guide

If you've picked up an Arc Raiders quest called Power Out and aren't entirely sure where you need to go to finish it, you're in the right place. While this is one of the more straightforward quests in the game, Arc Raiders has a habit of making even simple objectives a little more stressful once you factor in the journey there and the trip back. To help remove some of that uncertainty, we'll walk you through the exact quest location so you can focus on staying alive and getting the job done.

You won't need to extract in order to complete Power Out, but depending on where you spawn, reaching the objective can still be a long walk. Because of that, it's smart to come prepared. A combat-focused augment, a reliable weapon with a solid shield, and a healthy supply of ammo and healing items will go a long way in making sure you're ready for anything that tries to stop you.

Once you're geared up and ready, follow the steps below to complete Power Out.

How to complete the Power Out Quest on Spaceport

To begin Power Out, make your way all the way to the southern end of the Spaceport map and locate the Electrical Substation. Depending on your spawn point, this can be a bit of a hike, so be prepared for some travel time. While the destination itself is relatively calm, the path leading there can still be dangerous, so keep your guard up along the way.

After arriving at the substation, your objective will update and ask you to look for signs of a missing engineer. Fortunately, this part is very easy to complete. Look for the electrical box shown below.

While facing the electrical box, turn to your left and you'll see the engineer's bag sitting just a short distance away. Interact with the bag and collect the item inside, then head back to the electrical box. Place the item inside and turn the power back on to complete the quest.

With Power Out finished, your next task is to make it out safely. Because the substation is located so far south, getting to an elevator will require another lengthy trek. Your two main options are the South Elevator to the northwest or the East Elevator to the northeast. Before setting off, make sure you're fully healed, reloaded, and ready for potential encounters on the way out.
