The Market Correction quest in ARC Raiders is part of Tian Wen’s questline, unlocking after you’ve completed several earlier assignments. On paper, it sounds easy — find a cache near Marano Station in Buried City and sabotage it. But with vague directions, hostile ARC patrols, and other Raiders nearby, it’s not quite as simple as it sounds.
Quest Location: Buried City — Marano Station
Once you’ve accepted the quest from Tian Wen, head to the Buried City map. Your destination, Marano Station, sits on the northwestern side of the area, close to the Library.
The outskirts are quieter compared to central zones, but that doesn’t mean you’re alone. Expect occasional Bombardiers or Bastions roaming nearby, as well as opportunistic Raiders completing their own objectives. Bring a free or light loadout if you’re just there to finish the quest — you don’t need to extract afterward.
How to Complete Market Correction Quest
1. Reach Marano Station: Move west toward the Marano Station marker on your map. Use cover along the broken walls and debris to stay hidden from ARC patrols.
2. Locate the Cache: The cache is found at the north end of Marano Station, near the car park or east side of the platform.
- Look for two metal canisters or trash-bin-like containers tied together beside a small concrete structure or shop.
3. Investigate the Cache: Approach the canisters and hold the interact button when prompted to “Investigate.” This triggers the first part of the objective.
4.Sabotage the Cache: Interact again to sabotage it. You’ll trigger a small explosion—nothing major, but it confirms completion.
Once that’s done, you’ll see the quest marked as complete. There’s no need to extract with any item; simply finishing the sabotage step is enough.
Market Correction Quest Rewards
Return to Tian Wen in Speranza to claim your rewards:
| Reward | Type |
|---|---|
| Silencer II | Muzzle Attachment |
| Extended Light Mag I | Magazine Upgrade |
| Compensator I | Barrel Attachment |
These mods are great early- to mid-game upgrades that help improve recoil control and weapon handling.
Bonus Loot Tip: Hidden Containers at the Station
Before leaving Marano Station, check out the barred door near the main structure. Break it open to access a small storage room with up to four loot containers — players have noted a high chance of purple-quality gear spawning here.
If you’re running a free loadout, it’s worth looting these before extracting or logging out.
Survival & Extraction Tips
Even though the quest doesn’t require extraction, it’s smart to plan your escape:
- Best Extraction Points: The Northern Station near the Library is close by and usually less contested.
- Avoid Heavy Units: Leapers and Bastions patrol south of Marano Station; don’t engage unless necessary.
- Carry Adrenaline Injectors: These boost stamina for long sprints in open areas.
- Optional Raider Hatch: There’s a Raider Hatch close to the cache if you want a quick exit after looting.
The Market Correction quest might seem deceptively simple, but ARC Raiders rewards patience and awareness. With its tucked-away cache and light enemy activity, Marano Station offers both a safe quest completion route and a decent loot haul.
Complete this mission early in your session, especially with a free loadout, to minimize losses and collect Tian Wen’s valuable weapon attachments with minimal risk.
