Clamoring for Attention is one of the many brand-new quests in Arc Raiders' Flashpoint update, and it involves quite a bit of legwork. Shani has somehow only just caught on to the fact that the machines are attracted to noise, so she believes you can use sirens, horns, and even a boombox to test her theory out.
She's right, of course, we all knew it, but that doesn't make completing the Clamoring for Attention quest any easier. Not least because you're looking for three different locations spread across Blue Gate.
How to complete Clamoring for Attention in Arc Raiders
First things first, you will need to bring or loot three Wires and one Battery to be able to complete two of the three quest steps. I recommend bringing them with you to save time, but you can find them mid-run, too, of course. Wires and Batteries can be found in tech like computers, server boxes, and control panels, more commonly located in Technological and Electrical areas.

Warehouse Complex siren location


You'll need three Wires to complete this stage. Once you've got them, head to the roof of the Warehouse Complex near the centre of Blue Gate, where you'll find a tall pole on the north corner. At the base of this pole, you'll see a small yellow siren. Interact with it to use your three Wires to repair it and sound the klaxon.
Activating the emergency siren will, of course, make a lot of noise. I didn't have any issues, but it could attract other players or machines to your location.
Village boombox location


This is where the Battery comes in, so make sure you have one in your inventory. Then, head to the eastern side of Village in the northwest corner of Blue Gate. The boombox you're looking for is located on a wall next to the bins in the centre of the town. Don't waste your time looking around all the houses to find one, like I did, unless you need a battery.

This will turn the radio on, and it'll blast out some music, though it's quiet compared to the other two objectives.
Checkpoint bus horn location
There are tons of abandoned buses on the road at Checkpoint, so go inside any of them and interact with the prompt in the driver's seat to sound the horn. I picked one just north of the 'Checkpoint' marker on the map.
Take note that this quest step doesn't include any of the buses inside the Traffic Tunnels. Only those on the road outside will count, which is actually easier.
Again, this'll make some noise. In my case, it attracted the attention of a nearby Bombardier.
In return for your noisemaking efforts, Shani will reward you with tools to distract Arcs: 5x Lure Grenades, 5x Noisemakers, and 3x Tagging Grenades. It's not all that exciting, to be honest.

Rory has made the fatal error of playing way too many live service games at once, and somehow still finding time for everything in between. Sure, he’s an expert at Destiny 2, Call of Duty, and more, but at what cost? He’s even sunk 1,000 hours into The Elder Scrolls Online over the years. At least he put all those hours spent grinding challenges to good use over the years as a freelancer and guides editor. In his spare time, he’s also an avid video creator, often breaking down the environmental design of his favourite games. If you can’t track him down, he’s probably lost in a cave with a bunch of dwarves shouting “rock and stone” to no end.
