One of Arc Raider’s final quests for Tian Wen, The Armored Transport, takes you to Blue Gate, looking for the armored vehicles scattered around Head House. While the quest requirements are easy to meet, the quest locations take place in high-density raider areas. Fights are more common, and the location itself is full of drones such as the Fireball and Hornets. Here’s a quick guide on how you can complete the Armored Transport Quest guide in Arc Raiders.

Completing the Armored Transport Quest in Arc Raiders

To begin the quest, you’ll need to talk to Tian Wen, the gunsmith. You need to finish this quest in a single run, or the progress will reset if you are taken down or extracted early on. Back in Speranza, prepare your gear for a bit of fighting, as you might encounter more than usual players and ARC machines on your way. The quest mainly takes place in Blue Gate, but the first objective can be found in Dam Battlegrounds as well.

For the first objective, you’ll have to reach Checkpoint in Blue Gate and find the Armored Patrol Key Card. It is mainly found in residential areas like the Checkpoint in Blue Gate. However, players have also reported that the key can be found inside houses at Dam Battlegrounds as well. So, it’s a matter of RNG if you can find the key. If you have found the key earlier, the quest automatically marks the first objective as complete.

However, you’ll definitely find the Patrol Key card inside one of the guard huts in Checkpoint, for your one time runs. Investigate the drawers inside the toll huts in Checkpoint, and you’ll find the key card there. After finding the key, make sure to put it in your safe pockets, as there is a bug related to this quest. It locks you out of quest progression if you don’t complete it under one run. However, some players report gave reported finding patrol car keys inside vehicles and other resident buildings.

The final objective is located around Head House in Blue Gate. At this point, if you are knocked or extract, your progress will reset. Go to Head House and there are a couple of Patrol Cars around the area that you can open.

The first one is outside the tunnel, near the main entrance of the spherical structure. The second one is just a few hundred meters inside the structure, and the final one deeper inside the tunnels. Basically, if you follow the main tunnel road inside, you’ll spot at least two patrol cars for the quest.

After finding the Patrol Car, investigate to complete the quest. You can also find a weapon case inside the vehicles.
