The Divided quest in ARC Raiders sends you across Pendola Pass to investigate the Nomads’ past by finding four hidden recordings.
While the objectives sound straightforward, finding these recordings can be surprisingly time-consuming, especially at larger locations like the Loading Platforms and Almatera Station.
You need to find four Nomad Recordings in total, each hidden inside a different landmark.
You need to visit the Loading Platforms, Weather Station, Dispatch Tower, and Almatera Station to complete the quest.
The good news is that you can collect the recordings in any order, and you don’t have to find all four during a single raid.
Here’s where to find every Nomad Recording in ARC Raiders and how to complete the Divided quest.
How to Start the Divided Quest in ARC Raiders
Divided is part of the Nomadic Envoy questline and takes place on the Pendola Pass map.
You can access it after completing the preceding quests, including A Path Not Yours and Ruins and Reverberations.
Once the quest becomes available, you will receive four objectives:
- Search for the Nomad recording at the Loading Platforms.
- Search for the Nomad recording at the Weather Station.
- Search for the Nomad recording at the Dispatch Tower.
- Search for the Nomad recording at Almatera Station.
You don’t need to bring any special equipment or quest-specific items. Simply travel to each location, find the recording, and interact with it to register your progress.
1. Nomad Recording Location at Loading Platforms
The first Nomad Recording is located at the Loading Platforms in the southeastern section of Pendola Pass, directly below the Railyard.
This is one of the more confusing recordings to locate because the Loading Platforms cover a relatively large area. Instead of searching the entire location, make your way towards its northern section.
Look for a set of stairs leading to an elevated area with a small command booth. Climb the stairs and enter the booth. You will find the Nomad Recording inside.
Interact with the recording to complete the first objective. Make sure you check the upper section of the Loading Platforms, as searching the lower areas will not lead you to the recording.
2. Nomad Recording Location at Weather Station
The second Nomad Recording is located at the Weather Station on the eastern side of Pendola Pass, east of the Controlled Receiving Facility.
Unlike the Loading Platforms, the Weather Station has a relatively straightforward recording location. You only need to find the small building at this landmark.
Enter the Weather Station building and look for a desk inside. The Nomad Recording is placed on the desk, making it easy to spot once you enter.
Interact with it to complete the second objective. You don’t need to explore the surrounding structures or search outside the building.
3. Nomad Recording Location at Dispatch Tower
The third Nomad Recording is located at the Dispatch Tower, north of Almatera Station in the northwestern section of Pendola Pass.
This recording is slightly harder to reach because it is hidden on the upper floor of the tower. Simply entering the building and searching the ground floor won’t be enough.
Once inside the Dispatch Tower, look for a Zipline that takes you towards the upper section of the structure. Use it to reach the top floor.
After reaching the upper level, enter the room and look for a cabinet or office desk near the control stations. The Nomad Recording is placed on this surface.
Interact with it to complete the third objective. If you cannot find the recording, make sure you have reached the top floor rather than continuing to search the lower levels.
4. Nomad Recording Location at Almatera Station
The fourth and final Nomad Recording is located at Almatera Station, just south of the Dispatch Tower.
Almatera Station is a fairly large location, so finding the correct room is difficult.
Head inside the station and make your way towards the large main terminal room on the western side of the building. You need to reach the ground-floor reception area.
Look for the customer service desk with multiple computers. The Nomad Recording is placed on the desk, between two computers.
Interact with the recording to complete the final objective. You don’t need to search the entire station or visit the upper floors to find it.
Once the interaction registers, all four Nomad Recording objectives will be complete. You can then extract from Pendola Pass and return to Speranza.
Best Route to Find All Nomad Recordings
If you want to collect all four recordings in a single raid, choosing an efficient route can save you lots of time.
A convenient route is to start at the Loading Platforms in the southeast, travel northeast towards the Weather Station, and then make your way northwest to the Dispatch Tower.
From there, head south to Almatera Station to collect the final recording.
However, your starting location will depend on your spawn point. You can adjust the route accordingly rather than travelling across the entire map unnecessarily.
Remember that you don’t have to complete all four objectives in one raid.
If you encounter too many ARC enemies or other raiders, completing the objectives across multiple runs is a perfectly viable option.
