ARC Raiders has become a favorite among many players who love shooting and RPG gameplay, successfully captivating them with its unique mechanics. Within the game, there are numerous missions and challenges awaiting players to explore.
Among these, the two missions, Power Out and Building A Library, stand side by side as typical examples of the most troublesome tasks for players: the former does not have a high risk of combat, but it is quite troublesome; the latter, although you have a small range of movement in it, there is a threat of being killed by other enemies.
Most importantly, both tasks require you to complete them in a single raid, and you must retry if you die, which can be very time-consuming and energy-draining. Therefore, to help you overcome this predicament, IGGM breaks down the completion steps and important considerations for these 2 missions.
Power Out
In this Power Out mission, you need to complete an investigation provided by Celeste regarding what happened at the electrical substations. Upon completion, she will provide you with some rewards. After accepting the mission from this NPC, you can follow these steps.
To complete Power Out mission, you need to go to Spaceport map. The electrical substations are located in the southern part of this map. The specific location is near Security Checkpoint and Staff Parking points, not in the center of the map.
It’s worth noting that if your random spawn point is near these two locations, congratulations, you’ll save a lot of travel time; if your spawn point is further away, you can choose to walk there or restart the game.
Next, you need to find the whereabouts of the missing engineer at the electrical substations. This requires you to go to the northwest of that location and look for a small box on the ground. Approach it, and it will show that you can interact with it.
After interacting with it, you will obtain a fuse and other ARC Raiders Items, which can be used in the power socket behind the box. Then, you need to face south and put the items you just obtained into the designated box to complete the mission.
After completing all the mission steps, you can leave from a nearby extraction point with all these rewards: Bag (radio Renegade Variant) outfit, 5 wires, 5 explosive compounds and 5 oil, which will all provide you with some benefits during your subsequent Arc Raiders explorations
Overall, this mission isn’t very difficult; as long as you have enough patience and a fast movement speed, you can complete it in 10-15 minutes. Of course, this is the time required if you spawn in the south; other locations may take a little longer.
Building A Library
Compared to Power Out mission, Building A Library mission offers a smaller scope for your actions. You need to find three books in the city library located in Buried City, based on clues provided by someone named Apollo, who is the resident explosives peddler of Speranza.
These three books are a detective novel, a romance novel, and an adventure novel, respectively. Actually, these three books aren’t the focus of the mission; your main objective is to find the three bookshelves containing them. You can find the bookshelves where they are located based on the following specific locations:
First, you need to go to the city library located in the heart of Buried City; you can identify it by the buildings to the north of Marano Park. However, it’s worth noting that this park is frequently patrolled by Bombardiers or Bastions, and Rocketeers can also be seen at Marano Station to the west.
Therefore, it’s generally advisable to avoid these two locations. However, if you intend to farm loot using these Arc enemies, please buy ARC Raiders items at IGGM.com beforehand to improve your character as much as possible. After all, only a sufficiently powerful character can engage in extremely intense battles.

Once you reach the library, you can begin searching for the three books. Please note that these three books are displayed as Library Books in the game; you can only distinguish them by their location and different colors. Upon entering the building, the turret will immediately attack you; please be careful to avoid it and shoot it.
After dealing with this enemy, look to your right. There’s a combination of a large and a small bookshelf. The romance novel you need will drop after you interact with the small bookshelf. Then go upstairs; it’s still the first small bookshelf on the right. It will provide you with a detective novel.
The last novel is on the next floor. You can go down the stairs on the left. The small bookshelf where adventure novels drop is right next to the stairs; remember to interact with it. Note that placing these three novels into your in-game inventory does not mean the quest is over, so please remain vigilant. By the way, given the library’s excellent location, there’s no need to keep the three novels in a safe pocket; save them for the rarer augments.
This Building A Library mission is only complete once you evacuate through the nearest metro station and deliver the three books to Apollo. This will reward you with three explosive items: Explosive Mine, Jolt Mine, and Heavy Fuze Grenade. The challenge of this mission lies in avoiding conflicts with other real players who are using the library as a farming site, as it is a relatively well-known PvP location.
This concludes the step-by-step guide and precautions for the two relatively complex and dangerous missions in Arc Raiders: Power Out and Building A Library. Hopefully, with the help of IGGM, you can complete these two missions more easily and quickly and claim the final rewards. Of course, more mission guides will be updated here in the future, so stay tuned!
