How to Complete Shoring Up Defenses Quest in ARC Raiders

To successfully complete this quest, you need to carry out four objectives:
- Destroy 5 Wasps
- Destroy 3 Fireflies
- Use 1 ARC Alloy to reinforce the Raider structure on top of any Stacking Yard crane
- Board up shuttered windows in the hotel.
The first two objectives in this quest are pretty straightforward – you just need to grind the game and defeat 5 Wasps and 3 Fireflies. The real challenge arises when you reach the last two objectives.
To complete the third objective, you need to travel to the Stacking Yard in the Riven Tides map. If you have completed the first two objectives, you would already have the ARC Alloy in your inventory, as Wasps and Fireflies have a high drop rate for it.
Once at the Stacking Yard, start climbing the containers to reach the top parts of the red cranes present in this area. There will be ziplines for you to climb on top of these red cranes too.
Upon reaching the upper beams, wander around until you see the Repair (F key) option pop up. Use your ARC Alloy to repair the Stacking Yard crane to complete the third objective.

For the final objective, travel to Hotel Panorama Azzurro in the Riven Tides map. Explore the area until you spot red shuttered windows in the hotel, as shown in the image above. Go near the shuttered windows and press the F key to board them up again.
By following these simple steps, you will successfully complete the Shoring Up Defenses quest in ARC Raiders.

FAQs
How to get ARC Alloy quickly?
ARC Alloy commonly drops from enemy units like Wasps, so farming these enemies while completing the first objectives is the fastest way to collect it.
Why can’t I find the repair prompt on the crane?
The repair interaction only appears when you’re standing on specific upper beam sections of the crane, so make sure you fully climb to the top.
What do the shuttered windows look like in the hotel?
They are distinct red-colored metal windows scattered across Hotel Panorama Azzurro, usually on the outer walls.
