The Week 4 Trials in ARC Raiders have officially launched, giving players the chance to rack up three-star ratings on various tasks. This limited-time event runs until November 24, and with five tasks to complete, this guide will help you navigate and excel in each one.
As a seasoned player, I’ve tackled the challenges and found ways to optimize the completion of these trials efficiently. Let’s dive into each task and explore the best strategies to ensure you score those coveted three stars!
How to Achieve 3 Stars in ARC Raiders Week 4 Trials
The four maps (excluding Stella Montis) offer opportunities to complete all five tasks effectively, but the Dam Battlegrounds stands out as the most efficient location for achieving quick completions.
- Damage Leapers
- Damage Queens and Matriarchs
- Harvest Plants
- Open ARC Probes
- Damage Flying ARC Enemies
1. Damage Leapers
This task is the simplest of the lot—you just need to deal damage to a Leaper. While killing them can yield valuable resources, it’s not essential. Remember, more damage equals a better rank. The best spots on the Dam Battlegrounds are highlighted below.
My go-to location is between the Water Treatment Complex and the adjacent lift. From here, you can consistently target Leapers without taking damage.
2. Damage Queens and Matriarchs
For this task, head back to the Dam Battlegrounds. Your goal is to inflict damage upon a Queen or Matriarch. Remember, you don’t have to kill them. Keep an eye on the Matriarch, as it appears under specific conditions. The sector with the highest likelihood of spawning these foes is in the Red Lakes.
3. Harvest Plants
The key to this task is timing it with the Lush Bloom event. If you prefer not to wait, the Olive Grove, located south of Blue Gate, is stocked with Olives and Lemons necessary for upgrading Scrappy. The nearby extraction point and cellar accessible with keys make this a fantastic spot.
4. Open ARC Probes
To finish this task, open the ARC Probes scattered around the ground. However, be cautious; these probes can attract other ARC enemies with their noise.
5. Damage Flying ARC Enemies
This final task is straightforward. Simply target flying ARC enemies. Destroying them maximizes points but isn’t necessary. Be cautious of elite enemies like Rocketeers as they can pose a serious threat.
