Embark on an intricate journey within Arc Raiders as you tackle the challenging 'Wires Crossed' quest, a mission that demands precision in locating and installing specialized Arc components. This quest, while clearly outlining its objectives, presents a considerable test of a player's exploratory and combat skills due to the rarity of required parts and the subtly hidden interaction points. Players must gather three unique Arc items—a Snitch Scanner, a Surveyor Vault, and a Sentinel Firing Core—and subsequently attach them to designated antennas spread across diverse planetary landscapes. Success hinges on a keen eye for detail and strategic movement across the game's expansive environments.

The initial phase of the quest involves securing a Snitch Scanner and deploying it at Pilgrim's Peak on the Blue Gate map. These scanners are relatively common, often found by dismantling 'Snitch' enemies. Once acquired, players should navigate to the northernmost part of Blue Gate, where Pilgrim's Peak resides. A convenient zipline at the rear of the peak provides access to its summit. Upon reaching the top, players will discover a prompt on their left to affix the Snitch Scanner to an antenna, marking the completion of the first objective.

Following this, the mission requires obtaining a Surveyor Vault and attaching it to an antenna atop the Launch Towers on the Spaceport map. Surveyors, distinct spherical machines, are less frequently encountered and typically non-aggressive until provoked. They are identifiable by a prominent blue light beam extending skyward. Players are advised to search areas such as Riven Tides, near the Grandioso Apartments on Buried City, or the fringes of the Spaceport. These resilient machines periodically drop parts when damaged. After securing a Surveyor Vault, head to the Spaceport and utilize the central zipline to ascend to the highest point of the Launch Towers. The target antenna is an inconspicuous grey box situated on the western tower.

The final component, a Sentinel Firing Core, is needed for installation on the Grandioso Apartments' roof in Buried City. Sentinels are long-range sniper turrets that appear in specific, though not always guaranteed, locations such as the Research & Administration building on Dam Battlegrounds, the South Trench Tower on Spaceport, or at the base of the Pilgrim's Peak tower on Blue Gate. These cores can be looted from destroyed Sentinels or occasionally found within downed Arc Couriers across various maps, excluding Stella Montis. Once a Sentinel Firing Core is obtained, proceed to the Grandioso Apartments on Buried City. Access the rooftop via stairs or a zipline. The antenna is located on the eastern side of the southern block, behind a cylindrical white structure, where the final part can be installed.

Upon successfully attaching all three Arc components, players are instructed to report back to Celeste. This pivotal step concludes the 'Wires Crossed' mission, rewarding adventurers with a substantial bounty of 8,000 XP, three essential electrical components, a formidable Renegade I battle rifle, two ziplines, and two crash mats, significantly boosting their in-game progress and arsenal.
