Latest How To Complete Snap And Salvage In Arc Raiders 2025

Explore Stella Montis and grab a Magnetron and Flow Controller for Tian Wen.

The Snap and Salvage quest in Arc Raiders is much more complex than the previous In My Image and Cold Storage Stella Montis tasks. This mission is a four-parter where Tian Wen asks you to investigate two specific locations in the facility and deliver two items to her, one rare and one epic.

It's a tall order, to be honest. Since grabbing both items in this quest is primarily based on RNG, I'd suggest you bring a safe pocket with which to store either should you strike lucky. Despite having good loot, Stella Montis feels like a pretty friendly map at the moment, as players fight through so many Arc that they barely have time to kill each other.

All that said, here's how to complete Snap and Salvage in Arc Raiders.

This first step is very easy to complete. Simply head to the lower layer of Stella Montis and find the Sandbox near the center of the map—you might have to zoom in for it to appear.

Here, you'll find an open sandy room with two buggies you can interact with to snap a picture of either. Job done.

Another easy step to complete, you have to head to the Security Checkpoint in the Lobby, basically to the right of the text on the map that says 'Security Bridge'. The door to get inside will be marked "Security, Restricted Access".

If coming from the first floor, you might have to breach to get inside, but either way, you want to head down to the ground floor, where you'll find a small office with a slitted window looking out on the lobby, plus a three-sided desk which has the papers on top of it. Interact with these to complete this step.

Now, these two aren't quest items—they're actually salvage, meaning it's kind of up to RNG whether you can get them, annoyingly. I found my Magnetron in a storage unit in a room off to the side of the corridor connecting the Atrium and the Lobby, but I don't think this is a consistent spawn. Worth a try, though.
