I’ve been playing ARC Raiders non-stop since it dropped, and let me tell you – the “What We Left Behind” quest had me scratching my head for hours. Specifically, finding Bilguun’s Hideout felt like searching for a needle in a haystack. If you’re stuck like I was, don’t worry! I’m going to break down exactly where this elusive hideout is located and how to complete this quest objective.
What We Left Behind Quest Overview?
Before we dive into Bilguun’s Hideout specifically, let me give you some context. The “What We Left Behind” quest is one of Tian Wen’s early missions that sends you to three different maps:
- Dam Battlegrounds – South Swamp Outpost
- Buried City – Parking Garage Raider Camp
- Spaceport – Bilguun’s Hideout (this is where we’re focusing!)
The quest isn’t particularly difficult, but the locations can be tricky to find if you don’t know exactly where to look. I learned this the hard way after wandering around Spaceport for what felt like an eternity!
Bilguun’s Hideout Location – The Short Answer
Here’s the deal: Bilguun’s Hideout is located in the Spaceport map, right next to the Container Storage area.
But that’s not super helpful on its own, right? Let me break this down with more specific details that actually helped me find it.
Step-by-Step Guide to Finding Bilguun’s Hideout
Step 1: Get to Spaceport Map
First things first – you need to start a match on the Spaceport map. This seems obvious, but I’ve seen some players trying to find it on other maps, so just making sure we’re all on the same page!
Step 2: Locate Container Storage
Once you spawn in, head to the Container Storage point of interest. This is a marked location on your map, so it should be pretty easy to find. It’s located roughly in the middle of the Spaceport map.
Step 3: Find the Eastern Wall
This is where I got confused initially. You need to go to the eastern side of the Container Storage building. There’s a large wall behind the main building that faces east.
Step 4: Look for the Yellow Structure
Here’s the key visual cue: on top of that eastern wall, you’ll see a large, yellow structure. That’s it! That’s Bilguun’s Hideout. It’s not some fancy base or underground bunker – just a makeshift storage area built on top of the wall.
Step 5: Access the Hideout
Now, how do you actually get up there? You have a couple of options:
Option A: The Ladder Method
- Look for a metal container attached to the wall
- There should be a ladder leading up from this container
- Climb the ladder to access the hideout
Option B: The Climbing Method
- Approach the wall from the southern side
- Look for ruined or broken parts of the wall
- You can climb up these ruined sections to reach the top
I personally found the ladder method easier and safer, especially if other players are around. The climbing approach can leave you exposed to sniper fire, which I learned the hard way during one particularly frustrating run!
What to Do Once You’re Inside?
Okay, so you’ve made it up to Bilguun’s Hideout – congratulations! But you’re not done yet. Here’s what you need to do:
- Look for the notes – They’re scattered beside an old trolley inside the hideout
- Interact with the notes – Just walk up to them and press the interact button
- Collect them – They’ll be added to your inventory automatically
And that’s it! You’ve completed the Bilguun’s Hideout objective. Now you just need to extract safely to turn in the quest.
My Personal Experience and Tips
I want to share some things I learned while figuring this out, because honestly, I made some mistakes that you can avoid:
Don’t Expect Great Loot When I first heard “hideout,” I imagined some secret treasure trove. Nope! Bilguun’s Hideout is pretty barebones. Don’t go there expecting amazing loot – you’re there purely for the quest objective.
Watch Your Back The Container Storage area can be pretty busy with other players. I got ambushed a couple of times while trying to climb up to the hideout. Try to approach from angles that give you cover, and maybe consider going during off-peak hours if you’re playing on a populated server.
Bring a Free Loadout Since you’re really just there for the notes, consider using a free loadout. That way, if you get killed before extracting, you won’t lose any valuable gear. I lost a pretty decent rifle early on because I got greedy and brought my best loadout.
Complete Across Multiple Runs Remember, you don’t have to complete all three “What We Left Behind” objectives in a single session. I found it less stressful to tackle one location per match. This gives me time to extract safely and come back fresh for the next objective.
Complete “What We Left Behind” Quest Guide?
Since you’re working on this quest anyway, let me quickly cover the other two objectives so you have the full picture:
Dam Battlegrounds – South Swamp Outpost
- Head to the South Swamp Outpost POI
- Look for a large ruined building that looks like a tower made of corrugated metal
- Inside, you’ll find a yellow object to interact with
- Search it to complete this objective
Buried City – Parking Garage Raider Camp
- Go to the Parking Garage (located near the Hospital)
- Find the breach door on the elevator
- Breach it and take the zipline down
- In the raider’s camp at the bottom, interact with two separate containers
- Pro tip: There’s sometimes a weapon crate here that can drop purple rarity weapons!
Quest Rewards
Once you’ve completed all three objectives and returned to Tian Wen, you’ll get some pretty decent rewards:
- Muzzle Brake II
- Vertical Grip II
- Stable Stock II
These are all solid weapon attachments that can really improve your firepower. I found the Vertical Grip II particularly useful for reducing recoil on my favorite SMG.
Common Questions (FAQ)
Why can’t I find Bilguun’s Hideout?
I hear this a lot! The most common issue is that players are looking for something more elaborate than it actually is. Remember, it’s just a yellow structure on top of the wall behind Container Storage. It’s not a building or cave – it’s literally on the wall.
Do I need a key to access Bilguun’s Hideout?
Nope! No keys required. You just need to find the right spot and climb up. I spent way too much time searching for a non-existent key early on.
Can I complete this objective solo?
Absolutely! I actually prefer doing these quest objectives solo. There’s less competition, and you can take your time to explore the area safely.
What happens if I die after collecting the notes?
The good news is that quest items like these notes are usually saved to your progress immediately. Even if you die before extracting, you should still have credit for finding them. I tested this myself after a particularly embarrassing death!
Is Bilguun’s Hideout the same as Container Storage?
No, they’re related but different locations. Container Storage is the larger POI building, while Bilguun’s Hideout is specifically the yellow structure on the wall behind it.
Final Thoughts
Finding Bilguun’s Hideout in ARC Raiders might seem confusing at first, but once you know what to look for, it’s actually pretty straightforward. I hope this guide saves you some of the frustration I went through when I first attempted this quest.
Remember, the key takeaways are:
- Spaceport map → Container Storage → Eastern wall → Yellow structure on top
- Collect the notes by the old trolley
- Extract safely and return to Tian Wen for your rewards
