Continuing Celeste’s plans to increase food production, you’re sent to Dam Battlegrounds to recover a data archive linked to cultivation researchers at the Hydroponic Dome Complex as part of the Arc Raiders Untended Garden quest. The Hydroponic Dome Complex is a hot spot for both hostile Arc and Raiders, as it’s a high loot value zone. That makes this Arc Raiders quest a little trickier than the likes of Straight Record or Keeping the Memory.
If you know where to look, it’s easy enough to get in and out of the domes quickly and avoid any trouble. In this guide, we’ll walk you through where to find the data archive and complete the Arc Raiders Untended Garden quest.
VideoGamer Summary
- Head to the Hydroponic Dome Complex on Dam Battlegrounds.
- Interact with the computer terminal inside the northwesternmost dome.
- Head to the Field Depot immediately to the south and interact with the computer inside to upload the data.
How to complete the Arc Raiders Untended Garden quest.

First off, load into the Dam Battlegrounds map. A Free Loadout is a good choice here as you won’t need to ferry back any loot or even extract successfully to wrap up the quest. Save your better gear for other raids.
Head over to the Hydroponic Dome Complex. It’s found in the northwest of the map, with the Power Generation Complex to the east and Water Treatment Control to the southwest. The spot is marked with a red high-value loot perimeter line, so it’s easy to spot on the map. With any luck, you’ll land a spawn near the Pale Apartments or Ruby Residence, for a quick run over to the domes.
Once there, head inside the northwesternmost dome with the umbrella satellite dish perched on top (the left of the two northernmost structures). Refer to the image further up for the exact location on the map. Interact with the computer terminal on a wheeled shelf inside the dome. You’ll see a prompt to ‘Retrieve Research Data.’
That’s the first objective done. Now, head south out of the dome. Straight ahead, you’ll see a Field Depot, recognizable by the antenna on the roof. It should be marked on your map with the Field Depot symbol, so use that if you’re having trouble finding the structure. Interact with the computer terminal inside to upload the data.
With that, you’ll have completed the Arc Raiders Untended Garden quest. Remember to chat with Celeste back in Speranza to claim your rewards, which include x3 Advanced Mechanical Components, x3 Heavy Gun Parts, and x5 Canisters.
