A Dead End Quest Guide in ARC Raiders

Where to Find the MANTIKOR Underground Facility?

Once you get the quest from Shani, head to the Blue Gate map. Be sure to equip a loadout that includes a Safe Pocket, as you’ll need to carry an item back to Esperanza at the end of the quest—Free loadouts don’t have one. You’ll also encounter new, armored ARCs like the Comet and Firefly, so it’s a good idea to bring a Ferro or Anvil weapon.

When the match starts, go to the left side of the Outer Gates. You’ll find a small entrance marked on your map as you get closer. Your goal is to reach the Security Wing inside the facility. Take the zipline, and you’ll be near the MANTIKOR underground facility.

Walk through the door and down the hallway until you see a locked gate on your left. It needs three battery packs to open. Search the Security Wing for a small terminal with those batteries, and bring them back to the gate one at a time. After unlocking the gate, go inside. In the far right corner of the room, you’ll find something you can interact with to play a recording.

A recording will appear on the screen. Now, locate the Dusty Film Reel – it’s to the left of the screen. Pick it up and place it in your Safe Pocket, then head to the extract point. After you return safely to Esperanza, complete the quest with Shani to receive your rewards.
