Quests in ARC Raiders are the main progression route. These quests are provided by various Traders located in the central hub. Once a quest is accepted, players must enter a raid, complete the specific objectives, and then extract safely to claim their rewards. Some quests complete instantly if you already have the required items in your stash.
The number of quests is large and growing, and at launch, there are 63 quests for the players to complete while exploring the world.
NOTE: Quest Progress is shared if you’re playing in a squad, so your team can split up tasks to complete them faster.
