Follow DamnModz on GoogleFollow us on GoogleAdd us to your preferred Google sources.

ARC Raiders Home to Roost sends you into The Blue Gate tunnels for Shani after A Wrench in the Works. You do not need to bring a Blue Gate Confiscation Room Key. The quest provides a spare inside a searchable box behind a concrete road barrier beside the weighing terminal. Read the logs there, search the box, then use the key at the Confiscation Room.

Walkthrough

Requirements

  • Complete A Wrench in the Works and accept this quest from Shani.
  • Have access to The Blue Gate and use the Blue Gate map to orient yourself around Checkpoint and the tunnels.
  • Leave inventory room for the spare key rather than bringing one solely for this quest.
  • Bring healing, shield recovery and a weapon you can use against Shredders in the tunnels.

Choose a modest loadout you can afford to lose, but keep enough protection for the tunnel fights and locker-room breach.

Scan the Android at the Back of the Tunnels

  1. Enter the Traffic Tunnels at Checkpoint and follow the passage to its back wall.
  2. Look behind the round security booth for the Android.
  3. Stand close and finish the scan before returning toward the Security Wing.

Armored Transports also uses Checkpoint and the Traffic Tunnels, but its patrol-car objective is separate from this room search.

Search the MANTIKOR Locker Room

  1. Retrace the passage from the Android toward the Security Wing.
  2. Take the stairs up and turn toward the locker-room door on the right at the top.
  3. Breach the door if it is barricaded, or enter through the opening if it is already breached.
  4. Cross the locker room and interact with the mural on the far wall.

The mural is the clue, so searching ordinary lockers does not replace that interaction.

Walkthrough

Read the Weighing Logs and Grab the Hidden Key

Return to the lower tunnel level and look for the large rectangular arch or pillar beside the traffic barriers, before the passage leading back to the Android. The weighing terminal is on its far side.

  1. Walk around the weighing structure and use READ LOGS at the terminal.
  2. Look immediately beside it, behind the concrete road barrier, for a small box.
  3. Use SEARCH FOR SPARE KEY on the box and collect the Blue Gate Confiscation Room Key.

Guides that tell you to bring a rare Confiscation Room Key overlook the spare box beside the weighing terminal. Look for the searchable box, not a loose key on the floor. This is the quest's optional hidden-key stop and supplies access for the next room. The ARC Raiders keys guide covers the Confiscation Room key alongside the other room keys.

Enter the Confiscation Room and Transmit to Shani

  1. Return to the Security Wing platform and find the locked door beneath the MANTIKOR logo beside the stairs.
  2. Use the Blue Gate Confiscation Room Key at the door reader and enter.
  3. Climb onto the server racks in the middle of the room and approach the white box on top.
  4. Use TRANSMIT SECURITY RECORDING to send the recording to Shani.

Finish the transmission before deciding whether to spend extra time searching the room's containers.

How to Extract and Turn In

After transmitting, retrace the Security Wing passage toward Checkpoint. Use Overlook Airshaft near the Maintenance Bunker if it is active on your raid map, or choose another active exit.

Keep healing available for the return through the tunnels rather than using the last of it during optional looting. Back in Speranza, open Shani's completed quest and claim the rewards.

Quick answers

Frequently Asked Questions

Do You Need to Bring a Confiscation Room Key?

No. The quest provides a spare Blue Gate Confiscation Room Key in a searchable box behind the concrete barrier beside the weighing terminal. Read the logs and search that box before heading back to the locked Confiscation Room.

Is the Hidden Key Lying on the Floor?

No. Look for the small box behind the road barrier immediately beside the weighing terminal. Use SEARCH FOR SPARE KEY on that box rather than searching the tunnel floor for a loose key.

The far-wall mural is the clue. Enter the upstairs MANTIKOR locker room, breaching its door if needed, then interact with the mural before returning downstairs to the vehicle weighing logs.

Where Do You Transmit the Security Recording?

Use the white box on top of the server racks in the Confiscation Room. You need to climb onto the racks to reach it, then finish the TRANSMIT SECURITY RECORDING interaction before leaving the room.
