In ARC Raiders' 3v3 Creative Mode, mastering team tactics is key to victory. This guide covers crucial strategies for the retreat, advance, and attack phases, as well as common mistakes to avoid.
In 3v3 battles in Creative Mode, the simultaneous presence of multiple teams makes the battlefield unpredictable, and individual gun skills alone are often insufficient to handle complex flanking maneuvers and chaotic situations.
The stability of teamwork is often more decisive in determining victory than individual gun skills. To improve team stability and win rate, the key is to ensure that each member develops a unified consensus of action at different stages, such as retreat, advance, and attack, integrating scattered practical experience into repeatable team discipline.
After all, in this type of battle, survival and acquiring ARC Raiders Items are the team's ultimate goals.
The following explains the key strategies affecting teamwork in the three stages of retreat, advance, and attack, and analyzes common tactical mistakes to help teams reduce equipment losses and establish an economic advantage.
Retreat
When a team advances to the base of Tower, the following situation may occur: one team advances from the front and engages, while another team flanks and engages teammates. The team faces being flanked by two teams and caught in a three-way battle.
Timely disengagement avoids engaging enemies from two directions simultaneously. If pursuit is detected, retreat and lure the other two teams into engagement.
During the retreat, use throwables to block key passages. These can obstruct the enemy's advance, buying your team a few seconds to regroup.
Communicate with teammates via voice or markers during the retreat to ensure coordinated teamwork.
Prioritize retreating towards known safe areas to avoid entering unknown zones and encountering new enemies.
During the retreat, the rearguard should maintain a distance from the front lines to ensure they can use throwables to block pursuit while preserving sufficient space for their own escape.
Advance
After successfully withdrawing from the melee and allowing the other two teams to engage, pay attention to audio and visual signals on the battlefield, such as gunfire, footsteps, and engagement alerts. Once both sides are confirmed to be engaged in combat, it's time to resume the advance.
Before advancing, the team should quickly recover its strength. The commander should mark the target location on the map, and the entire team should coordinate their advance. The team initially engaged in combat is often fighting a third party, allowing your team to flank or rear and turn the tide in a local numerical advantage.
During the advance, one member can be assigned as the vanguard to scout and draw fire, while two other members provide fire support and cover from the rear or flanks.
The vanguard and rearguard should maintain visual distance to ensure timely suppressive fire if the vanguard is attacked. The advance route should prioritize utilizing terrain cover, avoiding long-distance movement in open areas.
As you approach the combat zone, the entire team should reduce movement speed to minimize footsteps and observe enemy positions around corners and from higher ground.
If, during the advance, it is discovered that the fighting has already decided a winner, the decision to continue should be reassessed, as the victorious side may have already secured a favorable position and recovered its strength.
It's advisable to wait at a safe distance, observing whether the enemy begins looting, and launching an attack during this period of relaxation.
The timing of the advance directly affects the difficulty of subsequent attacks. Entering too early may make you an easy target for third-party firefights, while entering too late may result in missed opportunities.
Attack
After a team knocks down an enemy, they should utilize this advantage to have teammates immediately push forward.
Knocked enemies cannot fight effectively, allowing the team to use the momentary numerical advantage to gain a more advantageous firing position and suppress the remaining enemy forces.
Before entering any area, develop the habit of using throwables to clear corners. Both lethal and tactical throwables can be used to scout or block potential enemy positions, preventing ambushes from hidden corners.
Throw ables don't necessarily need to result in kills; their purpose is to force ambushing enemies to move or reveal their location, providing your team with an opportunity to anticipate their movements.
Prioritize using throwables to clear high-risk areas, such as blind spots on both sides after entering a door, stairwell corners, and common ambush points behind cover.
Making good use of doors and sound information is also crucial in an attack. On maps like Stella Montis, when advancing to Tower, use door blockers to lock doors after entering the building.
After locking the door, the team can engage in localized one-on-one duels with enemies in their current direction, while simultaneously using sound to determine if new teams are flanking, thus deciding whether to quickly clear the area or rotate again to wait for third-party intervention.
Common Mistakes
In actual combat, a lack of patience is a common mistake made by some teams.
A typical example is that after clearing a corner and finding it empty, the team assumes that direction is safe and chooses to push forward alone. Three enemy players may be using cover to hold off this route.
Solo advances are easily taken down instantly by crossfire, and teammates, because of limited positioning, cannot provide timely support, leading to a situation where the team is outnumbered in a localized conflict.
The root cause of this mistake lies in an overly simplistic assessment of safety. Clearing a corner only indicates that there are currently no enemies there, but it doesn't confirm the safety of the passage ahead or the corner at the end of the passage.
To avoid this mistake, maintain a two-person team approach. Any advance in any direction should be carried out by at least two team members, with one moving while the other provides cover fire, alternating advances.
Another common mistake is immediately looting after a team fight ends. Some teams rush to loot locations as soon as they knock down enemies.
A safer approach is to first block key entrances with doorstops, mines, or throwables, use sound cues to monitor the surrounding area, and only loot after confirming there are no threats.
Prioritizing looting over safety makes you vulnerable to intervention from third-party teams, turning an advantageous situation into a reactive firefight.
The correct procedure is as follows: After the team battle, one member should be on guard while the other two quickly recover and set up an entrance blockade. Once the surrounding area is confirmed to be safe, one member should quickly loot ARC Raiders Items. After looting, the entire team should quickly evacuate the current area to a safe location before sorting and distributing supplies.
If you want to increase your success rate in attacks, patience, positioning, timely call-outs, and knowing when to retreat are key to becoming a better team. When you truly integrate these skills into your teamwork, victory will naturally follow.
Hopefully, after reading this guide, PvP will no longer be difficult for you, and you wish to reap many rewards.
