Market Correction is a short but easy-to-miss quest in ARC Raiders that sends you into Buried City to mess with a rival stash for Tian Wen. The in-game hint only says the cache is “near Marano Station,” which leaves a lot of ground to cover in a busy part of the map. The actual objective sits in a very specific corner of the station and is disguised as everyday clutter.

Where Market Correction takes place and what you have to do

Market Correction is part of Tian Wen’s questline and takes place on the Buried City map. The quest has two objectives that must be completed in a single raid:

Locate the cache near Marano Station
Sabotage the cache

You do not need to extract for the quest to count. Once you investigate and then sabotage the cache, Market Correction completes even if you die afterward. The rewards are three weapon attachments:

Reward	Type
Silencer II	Muzzle attachment
Extended Light Mag I	Magazine attachment
Compensator I	Muzzle attachment

Because extraction is optional, Market Correction is a good candidate for using a free or budget loadout. If things go sideways at the station, the only loss is your time.

How to reach Marano Station in Buried City

Marano Station sits on the northwestern edge of Buried City, in the Outskirts region. On the map, it’s close to the Library point of interest and a Raider Hatch icon. Different descriptions point out slightly different bearings, but they all converge on the same spot: the station complex on the west side of the map.

Spawn into Buried City and open your map. Look toward the northwest for the Marano Station label. It appears near the Outskirts, left of the Library marker.

Plot a route that keeps you behind cover where possible. The western side of Buried City is full of broken walls, wreckage, and low cover that let you weave around patrols instead of fighting through every group.

Move toward the station while avoiding aggro from large ARC units. Heavy robots such as Bastions and Leapers are often found around Marano Park to the south, so staying slightly north as you approach helps you stay clear of them.

Tip: If your only goal is ticking off the quest, bring Adrenaline Injectors so you can sprint longer and simply run the route instead of looting on the way.

Exact cache location near Marano Station

The cache is not a typical loot box. It’s disguised as a small group of containers near the station’s structures, and it blends into the environment easily.

There are two consistent visual descriptions of where you need to stand:

On the north end of Marano Station, just east of the station platform, next to a concrete structure.
By a small square-shaped building that appears just above the “Marano Station” label when fully zoomed in, with the cache sitting on the outer side of that building.

In practical terms, you’re looking for a short structure on the station’s edge, with a set of containers against its wall.

Once you reach Marano Station, move toward the northern section of the station area rather than staying on the central or southern side.

Look for a concrete wall or small square building just beyond the platform. Hug the outer edge of this structure; the cache sits directly against it.

Identify the cache by its appearance. It is made of two cylindrical containers set together against the wall, tied or banded together, and marked with a ribbon. Depending on the angle and lighting, they can read as trash cans or fuel canisters rather than an obvious quest object.

Note: There can be more than one cluster of similar canisters at the station. The correct cluster is the one on the northern side. If you interact with a set and no “investigate” prompt appears, move to the other set.

How to complete the cache interaction and finish Market Correction

Once you are standing at the correct containers and see the interaction prompt, Market Correction wraps up in two very short actions.

Hold the interact button to investigate the cache. This confirms you’ve found the right stash and updates the objective.

After the investigation finishes, hold the interact button again to sabotage the cache. This completes the quest’s in-raid requirement.

When you return to Speranza, speak with Tian Wen to claim your attachments. The quest is already marked complete, even if you died in the raid; the conversation is only for handing over the reward.

Because sabotage does not require any extra item or tool, any basic loadout with enough survivability to reach the station is enough.

Loadout and survival tips for Buried City and Marano Station

Buried City is denser than the other launch maps and often packs more Raiders and ARC units into smaller spaces. Marano Station itself is a relatively side-placed location, but you can still run into other players who are running the same objective or using the nearby Hatch.

If your only goal is quest completion, queue solo with a free or budget loadout. This removes the risk of losing expensive weapons and gear while you learn the route.

Carry at least one Adrenaline Injector or similar mobility item. Extended sprint lets you cut through contested zones quickly and reduces the time you’re exposed on open streets leading into the station.

Avoid fighting around Marano Park just south of the station. It often hosts large ARC robots. Circling wider or choosing alleys with more cover keeps you out of their line of sight.

If you want a fast exit after sabotage, bring a Raider Hatch Key. Marano Station has a Raider Hatch close to the cache location, so you can turn straight from the containers toward the Hatch and leave the map without trekking back across Buried City.

Remember that extraction is optional for the quest, so if another squad is camping the Hatch, you can simply disengage and let the quest stand as completed.

Extra loot opportunities around Marano Station

Market Correction puts you in one of Buried City’s more useful side pockets. If the area is quiet and you’re not rushing out, it’s worth spending another minute to check nearby loot spawns.

Two spots stand out:

Inside the station edge room: A small room built into the edge of Marano Station often holds multiple weapon and ammo crates. Its door is barricaded, so you need to breach it before going inside.
General station platforms and approaches: The platforms and access routes around Marano Station frequently roll decent mid-tier loot and consumables, which can help refill after a rough approach.

Tip: That edge room commonly drops a high-rarity throwable. If you still have inventory space after sabotaging the cache, breaching the barricaded door before you leave the station can be a quick way to upgrade your explosives slot.

Once the Marano Station cache is sabotaged and the attachments are handed over, Market Correction is fully out of the way. The quest is short, and most of the friction comes from recognizing that the objective is a couple of ordinary-looking canisters tucked beside a small structure on the north end of the station. After you know exactly where to go and what to look for, future characters can knock it out in the first minutes of a Buried City raid.
