ARC Raiders: How to Complete Wires Crossed – All Antenna Locations

The zipline at Pilgrim’s Peak takes you to an antenna platform overlooking Prefab Hatch. Bring the Snitch Scanner before making that climb: reaching the platform without the matching component leaves you exposed with no objective to complete. The same rule applies to the other two deliveries — collect the part, carry it to its assigned antenna, and finish the attachment interaction.

Wires Crossed items and antenna locations

Each component belongs to a specific antenna on a different map. Use this as your loadout check before leaving Speranza.

Required component	How to obtain it	Delivery map	Antenna location
Snitch Scanner	Destroy a Snitch and loot its wreckage	Blue Gate	Pilgrim’s Peak, on the platform overlooking Prefab Hatch
Surveyor Vault	Destroy a Surveyor and loot its wreckage	Spaceport	Launch Towers rooftop
Sentinel Firing Core	Destroy a Sentinel and loot its wreckage	Buried City	Southern Grandioso Apartments rooftop

Take only the component needed for your current delivery. Losing a part before installing it can mean another hunting run. After a successful placement, return to Speranza and prepare the next expedition rather than taking all three components through every fight and rooftop approach.

Snitch Scanner: Blue Gate and Pilgrim’s Peak

Search Barren Clearing, Ancient Fort, and Pilgrim’s Peak for a Snitch. These large scanning drones can call reinforcements, so commit to bringing one down quickly once you engage. Shoot off at least two of its white rim plates to make it crash, then loot the wreckage for the Snitch Scanner.

Pilgrim’s Peak is the useful search area when you want to combine the hunt and delivery in one expedition: it is also your antenna destination. If you find a Snitch elsewhere, collect the Scanner before heading to the northeastern edge of Blue Gate.

At Pilgrim’s Peak, enter the building and move to its eastern side. Find the zipline there and ride it to the antenna platform above the Prefab Hatch extraction point. Interact with the antenna to attach the Scanner.

The important distinction is the platform itself. Arriving at Pilgrim’s Peak or entering the building does not finish the delivery; you still need the eastern zipline and the antenna interaction at its destination. Keep the Scanner with you until that attachment is complete.

Surveyor Vault: Spaceport and Launch Towers

Find a Surveyor by looking for the blue laser it projects into the sky. Destroy it and loot the wreckage for a Surveyor Vault. Bring heavy ammunition or explosives for this hunt: Surveyors are durable, and sustained damage matters when they alternate between knocking you over and fleeing.

That movement makes the collection step awkward. Expect the fight to shift position rather than assuming the Surveyor will stay beneath its beam. Finish the kill and recover the Vault before committing to the antenna climb.

On Spaceport, head to the Launch Towers in the center of the map. Enter the tower structure and use the zipline in the northwestern tower to reach the top. Locate the rooftop antenna and attach the Surveyor Vault.

Check whether the Launch Tower Loot event is active before committing to this route. During that event, the ziplines may be locked and roof access can require Fuel Cells. A locked zipline can so be an access condition rather than a sign that you have reached the wrong structure.

If your priority is finishing Wires Crossed with fewer complications, make this delivery when the event is inactive. That lets you use the standard northwestern tower zipline route without adding a Fuel Cell requirement to an expedition already carrying a quest component.

Sentinel Firing Core: Buried City and Grandioso Apartments

Destroy a Sentinel and search its wreckage for the Sentinel Firing Core. Sentinels are heavily armed ARC units, so prepare for a more dangerous collection encounter than the Snitch or Surveyor steps. Once you have the Core, keep the delivery as the expedition’s priority rather than extending the hunt for extra wreckage.

On Buried City, travel to Grandioso Apartments on the western side of the map. You need the rooftop of the southern apartment building. Use the interior ziplines and stairs to work your way up, then interact with the rooftop antenna to attach the Core.

Check the building’s position before starting the climb. The objective specifies the southern apartment rooftop, so reaching another roof in the complex will not give you the required antenna. The interior route gets you to the correct roof, but the rooftop approach still exposes you to enemies and other Raiders.

What to check if an antenna objective is unfinished

• Match the component to the antenna. Pilgrim’s Peak takes the Snitch Scanner, Launch Towers takes the Surveyor Vault, and Grandioso Apartments takes the Sentinel Firing Core.
• Finish the attachment interaction. Collecting the component or reaching the rooftop alone does not complete its delivery.
• Check the exact approach. Use the eastern-side zipline at Pilgrim’s Peak, the northwestern tower zipline at Launch Towers, and the southern building at Grandioso Apartments.
• Account for the Spaceport event. If Launch Towers access is locked during Launch Tower Loot, the standard climb can require Fuel Cells.

Wires Crossed rewards and progression

Completing all three antenna deliveries finishes the Wires Crossed storyline step. Check the in-game quest completion screen for the exact reward items, quantities, and any follow-up quest available in your active version.

Make these delivery runs first and salvage runs second. Every detour before installation keeps a required component at risk, and replacing a lost part costs more effort than leaving optional loot behind.
