The Season 4 Week 5 trials in ARC Raiders are live now, and here's a comprehensive guide on how to get 3 stars in all challenges in this week's trials.

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 4 Week 5 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 4 Week 5 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 4 Week 5 trials in ARC Raiders:

Loot Weapon Crates

To complete this challenge, you need to loot Weapon Crates found in all maps of the game. While you can complete this challenge in any map, you can use Stella Montis and Riven Tides as the main maps, as these maps have the optimal route for weapon cases. Here are all the weapon cases in Stella Montis.

Damage ARC enemies in the Red Lakes

This is a very straightforward trial; to complete this challenge, first head to the Red Lakes area in Dam Battlegrounds. Once you are there, you will find Snitches, Wasps, Hornets, Fireflies, and a Leaper patrolling the area. Dealing damage to them with weapons or grenades will easily complete this trial for you. Make sure to deal as much damage as possible before destroying an ARC enemy.

Deal as much damage as possible using a Blaze Grenade

While the new trial might seem like a very straightforward challenge to complete, there is a big catch here. Most players will fail to notice that the trial requires you to deal as much damage as possible with "a blaze grenade".

The emphasis on a blaze grenade means that players must use 1 blaze grenade to deal as much damage as possible on any ARC enemy or other raiders.

Deal damage to Shredders

Shredders only spawn on Stella Montis. Your best bet at completing this challenge will be to play Stella Montis. Drop into a a Day or Night Raid on Stella Montis and look for Shredders to get 3 stars in this challenge. You can find Shredders roaming Medical Research, Sandbox, Lobby, and Assembly POIs.

Damage Bombardiers

To complete this trial, you can take out a Bombardier in any 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.

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.
