How To Complete The Reinforced Reception Tunnel Puzzle In Arc Raiders

When it comes to finding rarer loot in Arc Raiders, there is a surprising number of locations that have a solid chance of offering some great rewards. Along with high-tier locations and various events such as the Harvester, you can also complete several small puzzles scattered throughout The Blue Gate map.

One of these puzzles is located in the tunnels of Reinforced Reception and is definitely the simplest to complete on The Blue Gate map. Here's what you need to know about not only where this puzzle is located, but how to finish it so you nab some sweet prizes.

Where To Find The Reinforced Reception Puzzle

To locate this puzzle, first go to the Reinforced Reception point of interest in the northern portion of The Blue Gate map. When you arrive here, head inside the large stone building and take the zipline down to the bottom floor. Once you land, hang a left and look along the pillars in the middle of the room. You will find a computer terminal that has a white, flickering screen. This is the start of the puzzle, and the location of the screen will not change positions between matches.

The tunnels on this map are extremely dangerous, as PVP-minded players often roam them due to the density of higher-tier loot. Because of this, it might be worth skipping this puzzle unless you spawn close to Reinforced Reception. There are a lot of places to hide in these tunnels, and the last thing you want is to be ambushed.

How To Complete The Reinforced Reception Puzzle

To start this puzzle, interact with the computer you discovered and wait until the screen turns Red, Blue, or Yellow. This will indicate which path you need to take, as there will be a cache of loot waiting for you at the end of the designated color trail. The loot cache will make a deafening noise and have graffiti matching the color painted near the machine. Just interact with the machine to gain access to the loot inside!

Similar to the computer, the actual paths you follow also won't change, which makes it both easy to memorize and very dangerous since players could be waiting to ambush you.

If the color yellow appears, look for the graffiti on the wall and head through the door on your right. Then take the first right and go all the way down the staircase, and head to the terminal along the southeastern wall you will be facing when you exit the stairs.

If the color red appears, head up the stairs right next to the graffiti and then take your first left through the metal detectors. Enter the room and take the right by the red graffiti to the room with the large stone pillar in the center. You will find the loot cache resting along this pillar with a big red arrow pointing towards it.

Finally, if the color blue appears, go through the door at the end of the room, straight in front of you. Hang a right and follow the blue line on the floor until you reach a room with a large metal door on your right and a counter on the left. You can find the loot cache behind the counter next to the graffiti with the blue X beside it.

Keep in mind, this puzzle does not reset upon completion, so if you arrive and the cache is already looted, you are just out of luck. All the puzzles in Arc Raiders are first-come, first-served, so you must try to reach them first. This won't always be possible due to the random spawns and potentially entering when a match is ongoing.

As for loot, while I haven't received anything crazy upon completing this puzzle, I have consistently obtained blue-tier weapons such as the Renegade. Because of this, it might be worth checking out if you are just passing through or spawning near Reinforced Reception, since it can give you some great rewards for investing a minimal amount of time. Just always be on the lookout for other Raiders. I promise you will almost always stumble across some in these tunnels — especially if you're playing solo.
