A Rising Tide in Arc Raiders is a quest where players first have to find a Barricaded Apartment in the Buried City, then head to the Dam Battlegrounds to go search for Clues in the Controller Access Zone. If the latter doesn't sound familiar, that's because it's a new High Loot Area added as part of the Arc Raiders Shrouded Sky update, as we'll lay out below. No matter which stage of the quest A Rising Tide that you're on, we'll explain where you need to go in Arc Raiders and how you can find all the hidden areas like the Foreman's Barricaded Apartment, and the clues he left behind.
Foreman's Barricaded Apartment location in Arc Raiders
The first objective in A Rising Tide is to find the Foreman's Barricaded Apartment South of Piazza Roma, which is specifically in the unnamed apartment building shown on the map above, about halfway up the building. There are two apartment blocks next to each other, and the Foreman's apartment is in the North one.
To access it, I recommend you use the zipline that crosses between them, then jump through the window halfway. It's the most reliable method that Arc Raiders has to offer, unless of course you just bring a Snaphook and rappel inside.
Once you're in there, interact with the terminal in the middle of the open room to get the Foreman's Digital Logbook. This will direct you to the next objective, but that's in Dam Battlegrounds, meaning it's time to extract.
How to find the Dam Battlegrounds Power Generation Complex
This is a weird bit: A Rising Tide sends you to the Power Generation Complex, but once you get there, it immediately tells you to go to the Controlled Access Zone without doing anything, even though you can reach the CAZ without having to go through the Complex. Still, you have to tick it off the list anyway: head to any part of the area marked on the map above to complete it.
Controlled Access Zone clues' locations
Once you're at the Power Complex, use the lower walkways to cross into the Controlled Access Zone, the High Loot Area to the South, or drop in through a hole in the grating above.
However you get inside, you need to go into the central room ringed by stairs, and access the overlooking office at the top. Inside there, you'll see a whiteboard that you need to take a photo of. Do that to get the clues and complete the quest!
A Rising Tide Rewards
For completing A Rising Tide, Celeste will reward you with a level 2 Anvil, the legendary Anvil Splitter modification, an Extended Barrel mod, and 40 heavy rounds. Basically, you'll have everything you need for a truly deadly revolver.
