The Furtive Meetings quest in Arc Raiders is the kind of objective that sounds simple until you realize you need to photograph three hidden spots scattered across Stella Montis and then extract a quest item, all within a single raid. Miss one step, die before extraction, and the whole run resets.
Here's the thing: the quest arrived as part of the Flashpoint update, sitting alongside other multi-objective missions like Fragmented Logs that demand you stay efficient and alive at the same time. The difference with Furtive Meetings is that final extraction step. You can photograph all three locations perfectly and still fail the quest if a Shredder or a hostile raider catches you on the way out.
Where the three meeting spots are hiding
All three locations are inside Stella Montis, so you won't be hopping between zones. The challenge is moving between them quickly enough to avoid unnecessary fights.
The first spot sits in the southwest corner of Medical Research, right at the base of the staircase leading to the second floor. White spray paint on the wall beneath the stairs marks it clearly once you know what to look for. If you're sweeping through the hallways from the main corridor, you'll pass right by it.
The second location is on the opposite side of the map, tucked into a ventilation shaft on the east side of Robotic Sandbox B, close to the hallway connecting to Seed Vault. Coming from Robotic Sandbox B, take the southern ramp and turn left at the top. Coming from Seed Vault, it's on your right as you enter the Sandbox area. The meeting spot is marked by another graffiti tag on the wall, next to a bundle of paintings on the floor near the boxes you can climb to reach the Sandbox's upper level.
The third and final spot is at the base of the staircase connecting the Atrium, Cultural Archives, and Seed Vault. Look for the white graffiti beside the hallway entrance to Seed Vault. This one matters most because there's a container here holding the Secret Meeting Info item that you need to extract for Shani.
Why the extraction step changes everything
Photographing meeting spots is the easy part. The real pressure comes after you pick up the Secret Meeting Info from that Cultural Archives container. The nearest extraction point is in Seed Vault, and the path between the two is exactly the kind of corridor where Shredders patrol and other players funnel through during a busy raid.
What most players miss is that the loadout you bring into this quest matters as much as knowing the locations. A cheap kit with a dedicated safe pocket means the item survives even if you don't. Without one, a single death wipes your progress on the extraction objective entirely.
The route itself is manageable if you move efficiently: Medical Research first, then cut across to Robotic Sandbox B, finish at Cultural Archives, grab the item, and push straight to the Seed Vault extract. Avoid unnecessary engagements between the second and third spots, because the final corridor is where most failed attempts end.
