Arc Raiders: Your Guide to a Balanced Harvest Quest

Arc Raiders quests often send players to the Research & Administration building on Dam Battlegrounds, and one such mission, A Balanced Harvest, requires you to navigate this chaotic spot to find files related to a research project. Getting in and out can be a challenge, so here’s a quick guide to help you complete your objectives efficiently. You can bring a free kit into Dam Battlegrounds for this quest since extraction isn’t necessary. However, be cautious—if you fall in the bustling Research & Administration building, you’ll want to avoid losing any valuable gear. If you enjoy PvP, consider gearing up for this player-versus-player hotspot. The choice is yours. When you’re ready to tackle the A Balanced Harvest quest, here’s how to get it done.

**Go to the Research & Administration building**
Start by heading to the Research & Administration Building on Dam Battlegrounds. This area sees a lot of action due to its key contested rooms, so expect to run into other raiders. If your lobbies tend to be aggressive from frequent PvP, getting in and out alive might be tricky, so prepare yourself. You can approach the building from any direction, but entering from the southwest entrance is usually the most effective for this quest.

**Locate Lab 1 on the upper floor above the reception**
Once inside, head up the zipline located on the back wall of the reception room. This will take you to the upper floor. When you arrive, take the path to your right and follow it around to the first door on your left—this is Lab 1.

**Search for any traces of the agricultural research project**
Inside Lab 1, you’re almost done. Simply interact with the stack of papers on the desk in the center of the room to uncover the traces of the agricultural research project. Once you’ve done that, you’ll have completed A Balanced Harvest. Now you can loot the area or engage in combat—it’s entirely up to you, raider. Whatever you choose, enjoy your time in Arc Raiders!
