Arc Raiders: To the Skies Quest Guide

Stuck on Arc Raiders' To the Skies quest? You're not alone. This mission has you hunting down some specific arc parts to repair a Gondola Prototype, and it can be a bit tricky if you don't know where to look. But don't worry—we've got you covered.

First, you'll need to gather four key items: 1x Arc Performance Steel, 1x Pop Trigger, 1x Arc Thermo Lining, and 1x Arc Synthetic Resin. These can be salvaged from various arc enemies. Arc Performance Steel comes from big arcs like Bastions, Bombardiers, Leapers, or Baron Husks. Pop Trigger is from small exploding Pop robots or couriers. Arc Thermo Lining drops from Pops, Fireballs, or Baron Husks. And Arc Synthetic Resin can be salvaged from intact Arc Probes or Baron Husks. If you're missing any, just keep salvaging arc enemies—you'll get them eventually.

Next, you need to scan a crashed Arc Probe and an Arc Courier. These spawn on almost every map, and you can spot them by following smoke plumes or looking for their icon on the map when you're close. Your best bet for finding lots is during the Electromagnetic Storm map condition. To scan them, simply interact with the icon at the head of each.

Once you have all four parts, head to the Gondola Prototype. You can find it on any of four maps, but for this guide, we'll use Spaceport. The prototype is located just east of the eastern exfil elevator, north of Communications Tower and south of East Plains Warehouses. You'll see it resting on its side on some crates by a raider structure.

Install the four arc parts and interact to activate the Gondola Prototype. That completes the quest! Just make sure to back away a bit after activating—you never know what might happen.

And that's it! You've completed To the Skies and can now shuttle to Pendola Pass. Easy, right? Well, maybe not easy, but definitely doable with this guide.
