10 Tips and Tricks to Master Arc Raiders
Since this gem's release, I've already put quite a few hours into it. And honestly? I'm addicted. But it took a while to figure out what actually works in the game. Here are 10 tricks I've noticed during my raids that can save you nerves, time, and a few mission restarts.
Arc Raiders has won over not just my heart, but also many people around me whom I wouldn't have expected. People I thought didn't game much, or maybe just played a bit of FIFA on PlayStation with friends, were suddenly roaming the post-apocalyptic Buried City – which just proves how Arc Raiders managed to captivate a truly wide audience. In this article, I want to share my main observations that are already being whispered about across the internet.
1. Health Before Shields – HP first, then shields
A tip that saved my game more than once: when an enemy hits you, always replenish health first (bandages) and then shields. Shields only block part of the damage, so if you have full shields and low health, a single hit can still take you down.
2. Zrychlená přeprava s krabicí
Pokud nesete krabici k Field Depo, choďte zády (shiftem) – jde to rychleji než vpřed. Je to neintuitivní, ale každá vteřina se počítá, zvlášť při sólových misích.
3. Zipline – výskok dělá rozdíl
Chceš rychleji sjíždět nebo stoupat? Před použitím zipliny vyskoč a stiskni „E“. Ušetříš drahocenné vteřiny. Směr zipliny určuje, kam kouká kamera – hlavu nahoru = jedeš nahoru, dolů = dolů.
4. Cover Your Back While Breaching Doors
Don't just walk straight into the middle. Go from the side and get a view of what's behind you – you'll see all potential enemies and won't be caught off guard.
5. Friendly Ping – Communication in Solo
Use a long click on the mouse wheel to ping for teammates. You can select "squad only" or "All Raiders" – the difference is whether only your team hears the ping or surrounding players as well.
6. Hulkracker je must-buy
Kdykoli je dostupný u tradera, kupte Hulkrackera. Skvělý proti Arku, sundáte všechny nepřátele rychle a efektivně.
7. Sběr trinketů a pokladů
Ve svém pokoji a po mapě najdeš trinkety – kačenky, jídlo pro kočky a další. Sbírej je, můžeš mít pokoj plný sběratelských předmětů, což je takový příjemný bonus.
8. Blueprints are Key
Finding a blueprint = being able to craft that item over and over again. The Testing Annex in night raids has a high chance for blueprints. Tested and confirmed.
9. Skill Tree Reset via Expedition
Can't reset directly? Expedition allows you to completely reset your account, but you'll gain bonus skill points and a larger inventory. Great for players who have already finished everything else.
10. Play Smart, Use Every Detail
Drops, strategy, correct timing on ziplines, healing, Hulkracker, and blueprints – put them all together and turn Arc Raiders into your playground.
