Players will start their adventure in ARC Raiders by completing a series of quests given by the Trader NPCs, starting with Shani. After completing the first few quests, she'll eventually ask players to head to the Topside and repair the antenna for Field Depot, which was damaged in the storm. So, players will need to explore the map to find the location of Field Depot and complete the Off the Radar quest.

Where to Find the Field Depot Location in ARC Raiders (Off the Radar Quest)

Off the Radar Quest ARC Raiders

Off the Radar is the fourth quest that players can start right after completing "Trash Into Treasure" for Shani in ARC Raiders. Once players turn in the previous quest, Shani will immediately offer them the next quest. It'll require you to locate any Field Depot and repair its antenna to restore communications. So, as soon as you accept the quest, start matchmaking and head into the Dam Battlegrounds map.

It's recommended to take the Free Loadout instead of a custom one, as you'll only be heading into a match to complete a quest and then quickly extract.

Off the Radar Quest Field Depot Locations ARC Raiders

Now, there are multiple locations that you can visit to find the Field Depot in the Dam Battlegrounds map. I've marked two of the best locations you can visit to easily find a Field Depot.

Off the Radar Field Depot Area ARC Raiders

Field Depot looks like a rusty trailer that has a large antenna on the top. You can also first check inside the trailer to find any valuable loot before proceeding with the quest objective. It's also important that you survey the area to check if there are any players in the vicinity.

Off the Radar Field Depot Repairing Antenna ARC Raiders

Once the coast is clear, head up the ladder leading up to the Field Depot and start repairing the antenna for the Off the Radar quest in ARC Raiders. The antenna may make some noise while you're repairing it, so keep an eye out for any enemies that might get alerted nearby.

Off the Radar Quest Extraction ARC Raiders

Once the antenna is repaired, quickly head to the nearest extraction elevator to extract out of the zone safely and complete the Off the Radar quest. If you die after completing the quest objective, you'll need to queue up for another match and redo the quest all over.

Once you complete the Off the Radar quest in ARC Raiders, Shani will reward players with a Black (Hiker Color) Backpack cosmetic.
