ARC Raiders is a great experience in the extraction shooter genre. It’s got quests to spare that will help you learn the various maps to the best of your ability.
While some quests offer some helpful information about where things are, others don’t do such a good job. One of these quests is Reduced to Rubble.
This guide will help you figure out how to start the quest and how to complete it. It’s a four-part quest that you have to do in order; I’ll cover it in that same required order.
How to Start Reduced to Rubble
To even begin this quest, you’ll have to complete the quest A First Foothold first. You’ll also have to have unlocked Blue Gate to be able to explore the map.
Once you’ve managed to unlock the quest, you can head over to Shani to accept it. Your next mission should be bound for Blue Gate so you can finish this up. Shani has tasked you with taking photos of the collapsed highway on the map.
How to Complete Reduced to Rubble
Completing this one is a bit of a pain, as you’ll need to get lucky with your spawn, or you’ll be traveling a really long way. For this one, you’re looking for two objectives.
These can all be done in one run, but you can only do them in a specific order. If you’re grabbing loot or running low on time, just try to do them in two separate pieces.
Broken Bridge — Collapsed Highway
To find the actual objective, you’ll need to head to the northwest of the Collapsed Highway area. Here you’ll find a path in between some sort of rut in the ground.
It’s just behind the pillar holding up the part of the highway that’s still standing. Once you’ve taken your photo, you can follow that rut, and it should lead to your next objective.
This is where you could actually just go home, since there’s an extraction right nearby if you already have loot you don’t want to risk.
ARC Machine — Broken Earth
You’ll make your way to the marked location, Broken Earth. From there, you can head northeast while following the rut; the same one as before.
A ways away from Broken Earth, you’ll hit a very large ARC structure. The quest will change as you approach, and you’ll be able to interact with the broken leg piece there.
After you do that, you’re free to explore, or you can head home. There aren’t many great hotspots by Broken Earth, but feel free to do whatever you like.
Reduced to Rubble Rewards
Once you’ve made it back home, safely or otherwise, you can go back to Shani to collect your rewards. Make sure you claim it, or you won’t be able to progress or get your goodies.
You’ll be getting three rewards, each of which are utility items:
- Zipline
- Barricade Kit
- Door Blocker
While I don’t recommend doing this during a Night Raid, you’re still able to. Though you might want to be a bit more careful with anything important you’ve scavenged.
