The “A Dead End” quest in ARC Raiders has you going around the Blue Gate to unlock doors and get certain film reels for rewards. If you’re looking for a quick and easy guide, then this is the right place. Here, we’ve outlined everything you need to know for completing the quest with ease, so read along!
Quest Objective
For completing the “A Dead End” quest in ARC Raiders, you’ll need to enter MANKITOR’s underground facility, gain access to the locked door in the Security Wing, and a Dusty Film Reel that you’ll need to take back to Shani for completing the quest and receiving your rewards.
Where to Start the Quest From


To complete the quest, A Dead End, you’ll need to travel to the Reinforced Reception area on the Blue Gate map. Once you’re there, look for the building with a zipline shaft that you can use to descend to MANKITOR’s underground facility.

After you reach the facility, go left, and it’ll take you to the Security Wing. Here, you’ll come across a door with a yellow light glowing on top of it; this door leads you to a white colored power box that’s placed on the right side of the room. You can get three power cells from this box, which will be required for opening a locked door.
Note: There are other areas in the Security Wing as well where you can find power cells.
How to Open the Locked Door & Get the Dusty Film Reel


Once you’ve got the power cells, head to the marked location on the Blue Gate map, and you’ll come across the locked door in the Security Wing. There’s a panel on its right where you can use the three power cells to unlock the door.


Once the door is unlocked, go to the very back of the room to find the huge screen, and to its right, you’ll find a computer of sorts. Interact and hit “Play Recording.” After this, look to the left of the screen, and you’ll find a container. Interact with it to get the Dusty Film Reel.
Once you get the reel, go back to Shani in Speranza and deliver the reel to complete the quest. You’ll get 2000 coins and a new type of Warden Skin as rewards for completing the quest.
