As you progress through the levels in ARC Raiders, you slowly unlock features like the Trials, which are in-game point-based weekly challenges that are refreshed every week. By earning three stars and points in these challenges, you can climb through the ranks to earn exclusive rewards.
Each week Embark adds a new set of challenges for players to complete and climb up their leaderboards. The Season 3 Week 3 trials are live now, and here's a comprehensive guide on how to earn 3 stars in this week's trials.
What are Trials in ARC Raiders?
Trials is the unofficial rank system in ARC Raiders, which is unlocked at player level 15. Once unlocked, players have to earn points by completing challenges every week and climb up the leaderboards. By earning stars, players can earn exclusive rewards.
The challenges are usually divided into three stages, which are marked by stars. By earning points you can get stars, and each challenge has a limit of 3 stars. For each star, players get a reward, with a total of three rewards for completing a challenge.
By earning points you can earn a position in the leaderboard of 100 players in the same rank. Getting into the top 20 of the leaderboard will earn you a 2x promotion to the next ranks. With 1x promotion allocated for the next 30 positions. The bottom 20 players of the leaderboard are demoted to the previous rank.
How to Get 3 Stars in Season 3 Week 3 Trials in ARC Raiders
Like every week, this week's trials have five challenges players must complete to climb up the leaderboard. These challenges are quite easy, but you have to follow some simple strategies to effectively finish them without wasting your important resources. Here's an in-depth guide on how to get 3 stars in Season 3 Week 3 trials in ARC Raiders:
Get Hit by Lightning
This is a brand new trial that has been added with the Season 3 update. To complete this trial, you need to get hit by lightning bolts in Electromagnetic Storm map condition. Just stand still when lightning falls on you or near you, and you will gain points. You will get an average of 900-1050 points depending on where you were standing in the lightning radius.
Damage Hornets
This challenge is quite straightforward; you just need to damage Hornets in any map of the game. To get 3 stars on this challenge, simply jump into a night raid, electromagnetic storm, or hidden bunker event and then hunt Hornets all around the map.
The fastest way to deal with hornets is by using seeker grenades and hullcrackers if you have the resources or money. You can kill more than 10-15 hornets in a single run with these two things. Make sure to extract in time, or your progress will not count.
Damage Flying ARC enemies inside the Spaceport Walls
This is another new trial added to the game with the Season 3 update. To complete this trial, you need to damage aerial ARC enemies inside the spaceport walls. While this is an easy challenge to complete, you need to pick the perfect spot to maximise your point potential.
The best place to complete this challenge would be to destroy flying ARCs from the roof of Arrival or Departure building. You can also utilise the launch tower and control tower roofs to make this challenge a tad bit easier, but be on guard, as both of these POIs feature heavy player traffic.
Damage Bombardiers
To complete this trial, you can take out a Bombardier in any 2x trials enabled map condition. The best maps for this trial are Blue Gate and Buried City. You will find the Bombardier in either Marano Park or in the parking lot near Hospital. On Blue Gate, you will find the Bombardier near Raider's Refuge and outer gates near Checkpoint. The best way to take out a Bombardier is using two wolfpack grenades or using a Hullcracker.
Deliver Carriables
This is arguably the most strenuous challenge of this week's trials. To complete this challenge and get 3 stars, you need to deliver around 6-8 crates to a field depot in any map. You can also complete this challenge by carrying batteries to locked doors and puzzles. Make sure to do this in modified map conditions like a night raid to get 2x points.
Getting 3 stars with decent points in trials will guarantee you a spot in the top 20 of the leaderboard. Remaining in the top 20 will also allow you to jump 2 ranks once the trials are refreshed for next week.
