ARC Raiders Groundbreaking Quest Walkthrough
The Groundbreaking quest consists of these key tasks:
- Enter the locked room at Pilgrim’s Peak
- Search the room for any construction research
- Identify the building shown on the whiteboard
- Take a photograph of the abandoned housing project
When you accept the quest from Apollo, he hands you the key to the Blue Gate Communication Tower. Hold onto that key—it’s essential for moving forward. Your first step? Head over to Pilgrim’s Peak on the Blue Gate map.
Upon arriving, you’ll want to enter the building indicated in the screenshot below. Walk straight ahead, take a left, and continue until you see a locked door on your right. This is where you’ll use your key. Once inside, you’ll notice a whiteboard; simply check it out to automatically complete both the second and third tasks of your quest.
The final task requires a bit more effort, as you’ll need to reach a specific spot at the Abandoned Housing project. Navigate to the marked location, and you’ll find where to snap that all-important photo. Remember, you’ll need to make it to the Abandoned Housing before you can complete this step.
Once you’ve arrived at the correct location, take a good look at the building in front of you and snap your photo to wrap up the quest.
