Arc Raiders Coming After the Rain Mission Guide

Arclight Guide Occasionally you will be sent to the upper levels to repair something, and you are expected to bring your own items to do so. One such mission is After the Rain, which tasks you with repairing some solar panels in the Buried City. The last thing you want to do is show up to fix them and not get what you need, so we're here to help.
You need 2 batteries and 5 wires to complete After the Rain. You'll want to keep these items in a secure pocket if possible, as you don't want to lose them to a mistake, ARC battle, or unfriendly raider on your way to the solar panel.
When you're ready to repair those solar panels, here's what you need to know.
Where to find batteries and cords
Batteries and wires can appear almost anywhere, but they are a common drop in any technical or electrical POI on any map. Unless you've sold every item in the entire game so far, you probably already have a few items in your stash since they're pretty plentiful. You can also recycle other electrical items, such as power cords for wires, or industrial batteries for batteries.
However, if you lack sufficient batteries or wires, the most efficient way to obtain and complete this quest is to purchase them from Celeste in Speranza. This merchant allows you to purchase up to 10 batteries and 10 cords per day.
That's easy. Let's go fix something, Raiders.
Where to find and repair solar panels in Buried City
The solar panels that need to be repaired after the rain can be found outside the Grandioso Apartments on the west side of the map. This is a fairly high-traffic area, as the apartments contain quite a bit of loot, so keep an eye out for attackers who may be above you, as you'll need to complete your work on the ground below.

When you arrive you need to find a yellow box under one of the solar panels. Interact with it and use the batteries and wires you brought to repair it. This simple task will get things up and running again and get things done.

Now that you've completed the mission, you can head out at your own convenience. You don't need to evacuate, but it's obviously better if you do, so we recommend heading to the west station slightly northeast of the solar panels to avoid taking cover.
