Completing the “On Deaf Ears”Quest in Arc Raiders
The “On Deaf Ears” quest is a recent addition to Arc Raiders, introduced in the Headwinds update. This mission, which players can initiate from Lance, consists of several objectives that players need to complete on the Stella Montis map.
Given that Stella Montis is a notorious hotspot for raiders, navigating this quest can present challenges, particularly for those unfamiliar with the locations of the objectives. This guide provides essential details about the quest and specific instructions on where to go for each target within Arc Raiders.
Overview of the “On Deaf Ears”Quest

This quest requires players to visit four distinct locations to interact with computers. A key point to note is that it’s not mandatory to complete the quest in a single run; therefore, if you find yourself knocked out after completing one or two objectives, you can still resume later.
When gearing up for the quest, it is advisable to equip weapons suitable for close-range combat. Consider using shotguns or weapons like the Stitcher and Bobcat for effective encounters with other raiders.
Locations of Objectives
The first location is the Reception area, found near the entrance of the Business Center through the Lobby on the fourth floor. Here, you’ll find a computer to interact with to send data back to Lance, marking the completion of your first objective.

Next, head straight into the Business Center, and to your right, you’ll discover another computer to complete your second objective.

Following the completion of the second step, proceed to the Medical Research area where several computers are available for interaction. Use any of these to fulfill your third objective.

For your final task, navigate to the Assembly Workshops. Ascend the ladder next to the Hatch to reach the room above. In this room, search the box to complete the quest. However, do be cautious; a glitch can reset the interaction animation, potentially causing the objective to not complete successfully. If you encounter this issue, it’s best to extract from the match and attempt this final objective again. Be aware that surrendering or being knocked out may lead to the glitch persisting, so extracting beforehand is advisable.

Rewards for Completing the Quest

- Navy Blue (Warden Color)
- Lure Grenade x3
