ARC Raiders: ‘Safe Harbor’ Quest Walkthrough

The “Safe Harbor” quest in Arc Raiders invites players to explore the newly introduced Riven Tides map. This mission requires you to traverse the southwestern sector of the map, track down intelligence from restaurant kitchen staff, and recover a hidden objective. Notably, this is an “all-in-one” quest, meaning all tasks must be completed during a single deployment. While it might sound daunting, it is straightforward once you know where to look.

This guide serves as a comprehensive walkthrough for “Safe Harbor,” detailing the exact location of the kitchen staff’s clue and the specific area featured in the sketch.

“Safe Harbor” Quest Objectives

To successfully finish “Safe Harbor” in one go, you must complete these four steps:

1. Locate the clue left behind by the restaurant kitchen staff.
2. Identify the site depicted in the provided sketch.
3. Excavate the buried component.
4. Deliver the Precision Gimbal to Tian Wen.

Because the quest requires a successful exfiltration, we strongly advise equipping a loadout that features a Safe Pocket. This ensures you retain your mission-critical items even if your extraction attempt goes sideways.

Where to Find the Kitchen Staff Clue

Your first stop is the Hotel Panorama Azzurro, the most prominent and resource-rich landmark on the map. Head to the fourth floor; using the ziplines is the fastest approach, though be sure to disembark one level below the rooftop.

Once inside, head to the hotel’s central area and look behind the bar. You will find graffiti on the wall featuring a tennis racket, a sign, and a park bench. Trigger the “take photo” prompt to check this step off your list.

Locating the Sketch Site and Recovering the Part

From the hotel, travel south toward the Tennis Court landmark. Explore the western edge of this area; once you reach the correct spot, the “sketch location” objective will automatically update.

Next, search for a cluster of rocks situated behind a nearby palm tree. Digging here will reveal the Precision Gimbal. Again, for the safest possible run, store this item immediately in your Safe Pocket before heading to extract and delivering it to Tian Wen.
