A new week of Trials is live in ARC Raiders Season 4, running from June 1 through June 7. Following the massive Season 4 system overhaul, major map conditions no longer award a 2x point multiplier. You can now farm your 3-star milestone points on any map or layout you prefer without being restricted by specific weather windows.
To unlock your 3-star rewards, you need to hit roughly 4,000 points per challenge.
| Trial Challenge | Objective Type | Best Map / Location | Top Loadout Recommendation |
| Open Containers Inside the Hotel | Exploration | Riven Tides (Panorama Azzurro) | Shield Charger and Medical Kit |
| Damage Ground-Based ARC Enemies | Combat | Spaceport or Dam Battlegrounds | Any high-capacity primary weapon |
| Search Computers | Interaction | Spaceport (Departure Building 2F) | Smoke Grenades for safe hacking |
| Deal Melee Damage to ARC | Combat | Stella Montis | Heavy Melee Weapon and Flashbangs |
| Damage Spotters | Target Priority | Buried City | High-precision primary rifle |
This location-specific challenge requires you to travel to the western side of the Riven Tides map and enter the Panorama Azzurro Hotel.
The Strategy The hotel is a sprawling, multi-story resort packed with searchable loot points like dressers, luggage, drawers, and lockers. Do not rush straight to looting; the hotel is heavily guarded by ARC units, including Bastions, Bombardiers, Rocketeers, and Shredders.
Bring a Shield Charger and plenty of heals to anchor yourself in the tight corridors. Once the sector is secure, touch every single container on all floors to easily unlock your 3-star rating.
This is one of the most flexible trials of Week 6. Every point of damage dealt to non-flying mechanical threats counts toward your score.
Target List Ticks, Pops, Fireballs, Turrets, Leapers, Bastions, Grenadiers, Matriarchs, and Queens.
The Strategy For pure speed, head to Spaceport or Dam Battlegrounds and actively hunt low-tier clusters of Ticks, Pops, and Fireballs. They have low health pools but spawn in massive quantities, allowing you to pad your damage metrics quickly. If you want a massive point injection in a single fight, find a high-health Bastion or Matriarch and unload your heaviest ammunition into their weak points.
To complete this challenge, you need to interact with terminal desks and successfully extract from the raid to lock in your score.
The Hot Spot The absolute best farm point is the second floor of the Departure Building in Spaceport. This office area spawns multiple computers in close proximity, letting you check off several ticks of progress in a single run.
Alternative Spots The command stations inside Dam Battlegrounds or the office ruins within Buried City are great fallback options if Spaceport is too contested. Pair this challenge with your normal looting routes to maximize efficiency.
Ranged weapons, grenades, and gadgets do not contribute to this score. To progress efficiently and earn valuable ARC Raiders blueprints rewards, you must physically strike ARC units with your equipped melee weapon.
The Strategy Do not try to brawl with giant elites like Rocketeers unless they are stunned. Instead, look for soft targets like Ticks and Pops in the narrow corridors of Stella Montis.
Combat Trick Use your primary weapon to shoot an enemy down to low health, then sprint in to execute them with a melee finishing blow. Alternatively, stun larger targets with Flashbangs, then climb onto their chassis to unleash a flurry of melee strikes safely.
Spotters are the small, hovering aerial drone scouts that accompany large Bombardier units. They track your position with a distinct red target laser to call down artillery barrages.
The Infinite Farm Strategy Spotters themselves do not directly attack you, but they are agile and have deceptive health pools. The secret to 3-starring this challenge quickly is simple: do not kill the Bombardier immediately. As long as the parent Bombardier remains alive, it will continuously deploy replacement Spotters.
ARC Raiders Items Choice Take high-accuracy mid-to-long-range rifles like the Renegade or Osprey. Take cover inside the ruins of Buried City, pick off the hovering Spotters as they deploy, and watch your trial points skyrocket.
So Extraction is Mandatory Always plan your path to the extraction point early. If you fail to extract or go MIA at the end of a raid, you risk losing a massive percentage of the points you accumulated during that match.
Melee and Hotel looting trials are significantly easier and safer when playing in a coordinated duo or trio to cover your flanks.
