Keeping the Memory is a quest given by Celeste in ARC Raiders.
In this quest, you must travel to the Dam Battlegrounds, find the wreckage of a giant ARC machine, recover a missing helmet, and return it to a nearby memorial.
The main challenge is that all steps must be completed in one single match. If you leave the map or die before finishing, the quest will not count.
In this article, I will explain to you where you should go and exactly what to do, step by step.
Keeping the Memory Objectives
You must complete the following objectives in one run:
- Reach the ARC wreckage in Formicai Hills
- Search for the missing helmet
- Return the helmet to the memorial
Make sure you stay alive and finish all steps before extracting.
Formicai Hills Wreckage Location
The quest takes place in the Dam Battlegrounds map.
The wreckage location is marked on the map, but once you reach the area, look for a huge spider-shaped ARC machine that is partially buried in the ground.
If you see this massive robot wreck, you are in the correct place.
Be cautious while approaching, as enemies can appear in this area.
How to Find and Return the Missing Helmet
After reaching the wreckage, look around the nearby area. The helmet is hidden inside a small shrub close to the ARC machine.
Search the shrub to pick up the helmet.
Once you have the helmet, you need to return it to its memorial.
The memorial is a metal pole stuck in the ground, not far from the wreckage. Walk up to the pole and interact with it to place the helmet back where it belongs.
After returning the helmet, the main task is complete.
How to Complete the Quest
Once the helmet is placed on the memorial, safely extract from the map using any extraction method you prefer.
After returning to base, talk to Celeste to officially complete the quest.
Remember, if you fail to extract after placing the helmet, the quest will not count.
