The Trash Into Treasure in Arc Raiders works almost as a tutorial for scavenging in the game. It takes place after Clearer Skies and remains a simple yet slightly more challenging mission throughout its entirety. To complete the mission, you must finish two objectives by gathering two different materials. While that may sound pointless to you, it is just as Shani said, “There’s no such thing as junk.” So gear up and prepare yourself for a good amount of scavenging in the Trash Into Treasure quest in Arc Raiders.

How To Complete Trash Into Treasure Quest in Arc Raiders

The first thing you will see when you pick the Trash Into Treasure quest is this quote:

“There’s no such thing as junk, to a Raider; just valuable materials waiting to be recycled. If you’re going to amount to anything around here, you can’t just wait for things to be served on a silver platter.”

Shani is the first trader you will meet.

After accepting the quest from Shani through the Security Terminal, you must go on a raid to scavenge important items. For that, head into loot spots once again, just like you did during the Picking Up the Pieces quest. Alternatively, going to derelict areas and searching for mechanical debris are also valid methods.

When you reach these areas and are ready to do some hard work like a true scavenger, start looking for wires. To complete one of the objectives in this mission, you need to find 6x Wires. Wrecked drones or supply caches are generally good spots to find this material. After collecting enough of the first material, go to abandoned tech crates or search near energy cores to find 1x Battery. You can also try recycling a Power Bank to obtain it.

Once you have all the required materials and have completed both objectives, extract safely and return to Shani. This will mark the end of the Trash Into Treasure quest in Arc Raiders.
