Off The Radar

Objectives
All objectives carry over between raids. You do not need to complete everything in a single run.
Walkthrough Tips
Interact objectives require you to hold the action button for several seconds. Clear nearby ARC threats before starting each interaction to avoid getting interrupted mid-progress.
Satellite and antenna objectives are usually on rooftops or elevated platforms. Plan your approach route with vertical navigation in mind. These exposed positions leave you vulnerable to aerial ARC patrols.
This quest grants you specific items upon acceptance. These are typically required for one or more objectives, so don't discard them.
This quest is part of a chain. Completing the previous quest(s) in the series is required before this one becomes available from the trader.
Recommended Loadout
Noisemakers or Decoys
Interaction objectives force you to stand still for several seconds. Distracting nearby ARC patrols with noisemakers buys you time to complete interactions without getting interrupted.
Smoke Grenades
Smoke grenades provide cover when crossing open ground or when you need to disengage from an unexpected fight near an objective.
Zipline
Ziplines speed up navigation between objectives spread across the map. Place them on high points to create shortcuts for return trips.
Step-by-Step Completion Guide
Follow these steps to complete all objectives for Off The Radar. Each step includes contextual advice based on the objective type.
Visit a Field Depot
Follow the quest marker and interact with the highlighted element. Stay alert for ARC patrols in the area and clear them if they interfere with the objective.
Repair the antenna on the roof of the Field Depot
Approach the highlighted object and hold the interaction button. The repair process takes several seconds during which you are vulnerable. Clear nearby threats first, then start the interaction.
Map: Buried City
An urban ruin partially swallowed by shifting earth and time. Narrow streets, collapsed buildings, and underground passages create a maze-like combat environment. Visibility is limited and ambush opportunities are everywhere, both for Raiders and ARC forces.
Navigation is the biggest challenge here. Mark your entry points and keep track of elevation changes. Underground sections can loop back on themselves. ARC Rollers are common in the tighter corridors.
