The Power Out quest in ARC Raiders is relatively simple, but it can still be confusing if you don't know what to do.

You can start the quest after receiving it from Celeste. The quest requires you to investigate missing personnel and turn on the power switch in the correct location. This guide will help you complete all the steps without any problems.

Walkthrough of the ARC Raiders Power Out quest

The Power Out quest can be broken down into the following parts.

  • Find the electrical substation south of the spaceport, near the checkpoint.
  • Find any trace of the missing engineer
  • Take the fuse/battery back to the electrical substation.
  • Turn on the power switch on the fuse box

The first step is to get to the electrical substation. It is located south of the spaceport and I have marked its location. If you are in the marked location, you will find an electrical box. Leave it untouched as you will need to find a quest item to turn on the power switch.

Turn left from the electrical box and you will see the engineer's items (see the second task of the quest). Interact with the items (container) to take the cell from inside and return to the electrical box. Stand next to it and you will be able to interact with the box containing the cell and place it inside.

Turn on the power to complete the final part of the quest, and then you can talk to Celeste when you return to Speranza. Extraction is not the key to this quest, and the nearest elevator will be quite far away. The electrical substation is not a great place to loot, but you can find necessary items such as batteries.
