ARC Raiders Weekly Trials Guide | Best Farming Spots, Tips And High Score Strategies

Next, we'll introduce the challenges you need to complete in this week's ARC Raiders Weekly Trials, along with some simple and easy-to-use strategies and tips to help you achieve three stars or even higher scores.

1. Damage Leapers

The best time and place to kill Leapers is in Night Raid or Dam Battlegrounds of Electromagnetic Storm. Under these special conditions, you will receive double challenge points.

Here are our recommended areas to attack Leapers in Dam Battlegrounds:

  • Water Treatment Control
  • Near Dam Testing Annex
  • Red Lake

You can move along a triangular path to kill Leapers one by one, then repeat. You should quickly accumulate enough points to achieve 3 stars. If you want to aim even higher scores, keep going!

Note that Leapers have exceptional jumping ability and can flexibly change their attack direction during combat, making them a very threatening ARC enemy.

Therefore, maintaining a certain distance to ensure your survival is essential. You can also craft more powerful ARC Raiders weapons to gain sufficient firepower support.

2. Damage Queens Or Matriarchs

To achieve a high score in this challenge, it's best to defeat these two ARC enemies solo. However, this is difficult. On one hand, these ARCs have extremely strong attack and defense capabilities; on the other hand, most players attack in teams to deal more damage, making it difficult to avoid these grouped players.

Therefore, we recommend choosing a high and relatively concealed location and using obstacles to prevent other players from entering.

Regarding ARC Raiders weapons, we recommend Hullcracker. Although crafting it requires many precious materials, it boasts extremely high ARC Armor Penetration, capable of dealing massive damage to ARC enemies. Furthermore, it excels in long-range combat, making it the best choice against Queens.

Here's a helpful tip for earning more points during combat: Don't rush to kill Queen; focus on destroying its armor first, dealing more damage and earning more points before completely defeating it.

It's worth noting that this technique also applies to other ARC enemies.

As for Matriarchs, head to Headhouse location on Blue Gate map. This excellent position allows you to shoot directly at Matriarchs' shield as it appears, damaging its core and eliminating this deadly enemy faster.

3. Harvest Plants

Galleria on Buried City map has many harvestable plants. If you visit this area during a Night Raid, you'll harvest plants worth 500 points each, easily achieving a three-star rating. However, the downside is that this area is crowded, so you might need to compete with other players to get a higher score.

Therefore, we recommend heading towards North Trench Tower area on Spaceport map first. It's also covered in vegetation, and with fewer players, you can collect plants undisturbed and easily earn a high score.

4. Open ARC Probes

Although this challenge is called Open ARC Probes, you actually only need to pick up ARC Raiders items within it. Therefore, here are some tips to help you get points faster.

Doing this challenge during Electromagnetic Storm will help you easily get a high score. You need to look for the smoke emitted when ARC Probes or ARC Motion Cores are destroyed, open them, and only collect the items inside to get points.

If you want to climb higher on the leaderboard, try the challenge during Electromagnetic Storm. The points it provides will allow you to easily surpass many players.

5. Damage Flying ARC Enemies

Rocketeer is the best target for this challenge. You can place traps behind yourself to prevent being ambushed by other players and use Hullcracker to attack ARC robots.

Under Night Raid and Electromagnetic Storm conditions, these ARC enemies can be defeated more quickly. These major map conditions will also negatively impact them.

Furthermore, we recommend attacking the main body of the Thrruster rather than its body. During double-score events like Night Raid, you can earn enough points by taking down only a few Rocketeers.

Rewards

When you complete these challenges and earn 1000, 2500, and 4000 points, you will receive a random uncommon, rare, and epic ARC Raiders item, respectively. These challenge rewards will be automatically claimed after you leave the map, so you don't have to worry about missing any rewards.

It's worth noting that these rewards can be claimed once a week and will reset with the weekly mission update. We strongly recommend participating every week; the rewards the game offers will not disappoint.

By choosing the right challenge maps, ARC Raiders weapons, and ensuring sufficient survivability in combat, you can easily achieve 3 stars on all five challenges and earn generous rewards.

ARC Raiders Weekly Trials are now live! Master the techniques mentioned above, and you can easily earn tons of points whether you're grinding monsters, challenging powerful enemies, gathering plants, or collecting items. Start your challenge now!
