How to Damage ARC Enemies?
First, players need to travel to Old Town in Buried City to enter this Trial. This area is teeming with ARC enemies, so you won't need to spend too much time completing it.
During this trial, players simply need to engage ARCs, inflict damage, and then successfully retreat to complete it. Be aware that powerful enemies like Vaporizers may appear, so be prepared and take precautions.
How To Disarm Mines During Locked Gate?
To complete this Trial, players need to load into Blue Gate during Locked Gate Major Map Condition. Upon reaching the topside, you don't need to enter the tunnels; mines are scattered throughout the map, but players need to disarm 14 to achieve a three-star rating for this trial. This ARC Raiders Trial tests speed, not firepower.
Disarming mines is simple; follow these steps:
- Carefully approach the mines, listening for the beeping sounds.
- Approaching a mine will trigger a defuse prompt.
- When Disarm prompt appears, hold down the Interact button.
- Remain completely still until the animation finishes playing.
- Immediately proceed to the next mine.
Remember, hitting a mine will also trigger an explosion. The explosion of nearby grenades or other mines may cause a chain reaction. Therefore, in densely packed minefields, remain calm and shoot accurately. Stepping on the wrong mine or leaving too early will kill you, and other raiders will steal your coveted 300 points.
If you leave a mine before defusing it, it will also explode, causing significant damage, possibly even fatal. So don't move, don't panic, complete the defuse.
Crouching while traversing a minefield allows you to approach without accidentally triggering mines, giving you time to assess the minefield's layout before defusing them. If you approach a mine but no defuse prompt appears, it means another player has already cleared it, and you can continue.
How To Search Raider Caches?
Players can complete this simple Trial on any map except ARC Raiders Stella Montis. Look for small metal boxes to loot on the map. These boxes are scattered throughout and make a buzzing sound; use this sound to locate them.
Each Raider Cache you search contributes to your Trials score, with double points awarded for searching chests on Hurricane major map condition.
How to Damage Wasps?
Wasps are more difficult to deal with than Ticks and Pops, but with the right approach, they can be easy targets. These flying enemies are quite formidable early in the game; finding their weak points and using the right ARC Raiders Items is crucial for easily taking them down.
Ideally, players should choose a map suitable for ranged weapons for this ARC Raiders Trial. Wasps spawn randomly on the map, so any map will do.
During this time, players should maintain a low profile and snipe Wasps from a safe distance at a higher vantage point. Because they have difficulty tracking enemies at the same or higher altitude, attacking from above is an excellent strategy. Then focus your attacks on Wasps' blades, and they will fall to the ground.
How to Damage Vaporizers?
Vaporizers only spawn during ARC Raiders Close Scrutiny Major Map Condition. They are flying tanks responsible for guarding Assessors.
These enemies are very powerful and not to be underestimated. Vaporizers possess heavy armor and powerful laser attacks that can quickly kill players. Therefore, players should focus on using cover for firing in this fight. While remaining concealed, quickly peek out to shoot.
It is recommended that players use heavy weapons and aim at propulsors that maintain Vaporizers' flight. Vaporizers are very durable; light equipment will run out of ammo before they fall.
It is worth noting that Vaporizers' energy shield, when activated, can block all damage, including damage from explosive projectiles. Stop firing immediately after the shield is activated and wait for it to dissipate before resuming fire. Solo players who waste ammo due to shield activation can easily run out of ammo before eliminating enemies.
The following is a recommended equipment configuration based on multiple tests:
- Hullcracker: Deals high burst damage to armored targets
- Aphelion: Provides sustained ranged damage output
- Dolabra: Uses a shotgun for close-quarters combat
- Wolfpacks: Multi-hit rockets (Note: shields can intercept these rockets)
This concludes our guide to ARC Raiders Week 23 Trials. We hope it helps players complete Trials more effectively and achieve higher scores. If you have any further questions, please feel free to discuss them later.
