How to complete the Locked Gate event in ARC Raiders
There are two steps to completing Locked Gate: collect four keycards at the outskirts of the map, then use them at the Gate Control Room in the Warehouse Complex to open the main gates at Checkpoint.
Here are the four places you need to go to find the keycards:
Raider’s Refuge
Reinforced Reception
Pilgrim’s Peak
Ancient Fort
Search every loot container in these four locations, as the keys don’t have a static spawn. They will appear in the POI’s various lootables, however.
Once you, your teammates, or another Raider in the server have collected all four keys, go to the Gate Control Room at the southern end of the Warehouse Complex. It’s the blue building atop the Checkpoint gate structure.
Use the four keycards at their designated control panels (you’ll see the same white key icons on the computer consoles on both sides of the Control Room). The main Checkpoint gate will open once you or someone else inputs the fourth keycard, and you can then loot the place.
Note that Locked Gate is a major map condition, meaning you get 2X Trials progress, and the matches are 40 minutes long to accommodate the event. That gives you plenty of time to search all four locations for the keycards, but also plenty of time for other players and teams to do the same.
Be prepared to work together with potential enemies, and beware hostile Raiders looking for a fight with easy-to-find targets.
