What Goes Around Quest Guide – ARC Raiders

In the “What Goes Around” quest for ARC Raiders, you’ll need to destroy any ARC enemy using a Fireball Burner. This quest comes from Apollo and rewards you with unique items for your backpack and combat gear.

Quest Overview

Quest Name: What Goes Around
Quest Giver: Apollo
Objective: Destroy any ARC enemy using a Fireball Burner
Recommended Map: Dam Battlegrounds
Granted Item:Red Light Stick ×5

Rewards:

• Cans Backpack Attachment
• Blaze Grenade ×3
• Noisemaker ×2

Step 1: Accept the Quest and Prepare

Accept “What Goes Around” from Apollo.
Before entering a match, use a free loadout to avoid losing any rare gear if you’re defeated.
You’ll be heading into Dam Battlegrounds, one of the easiest maps for this objective thanks to the number of Fireball ARCs and nearby extraction zones.

If you already completed The Right Tool Quest, you might already have a Fireball Burner from looting a Fireball’s remains. If not, you’ll need to obtain one first.

Step 2: Find and Destroy a Fireball ARC

To get a Fireball Burner, locate and destroy a Fireball ARC.
You can find these using our Interactive Map, but one of the most reliable spots is the Water Treatment area on the Dam Battlegrounds map.

Once you spot a Fireball, grab its attention by shooting near it or moving into its detection range. As shown in the clip below, wait for the Fireball to pause directly in front of you, then quickly roll back to dodge its incoming flame burst.

Once it exposes its core, aim for the glowing weak point in the center and fire a few well-placed shots to destroy it efficiently.

Loot the remains of the Fireball to obtain the Fireball Burner.

Step 3: Destroy an ARC Enemy Using the Fireball Burner

Now that you’ve got the Fireball Burner, it’s time to use it on another ARC enemy.
The best location for this is Research & Administration, which often has plenty of weak ARCs like POPs roaming around.

If the area is quiet or the POPs have already been destroyed, look for an ARC Turret guarding an entrance or corridor. Get close, aim carefully, and throw the Fireball Burner at it.

After impact, wait for the ARC to catch fire and be destroyed. When this happens, your quest objective will be completed.

Step 4: Extract and Claim Your Reward

Once the ARC has been destroyed with the Fireball Burner, head to the nearest extraction zone to ensure the quest progress is saved.
Return to Apollo in Speranza to complete the mission and claim your rewards.

Rewards

You’ll receive:

• Cans Backpack Attachment
• 3 Blaze Grenades
• 2 Noisemakers

These rewards add extra tactical options for future encounters and enhance your gear customization.
