Week 5 of the ARC Raiders Trials brings a fresh set of objectives for players eager to test their skills and earn new rewards. The extraction shooter continues to evolve with updates that keep gameplay active, emphasizing teamwork, precision, and adaptability against ever-changing environmental and enemy challenges.
Players can join the action to hunt valuable gear and cosmetics through the latest Trials system, which offers structured objectives beyond standard looting. Facing powerful foes such as Rocketeers, Bastions, and the Queen demands coordination and solid strategy, reinforcing why the Trials remain a central feature of the ongoing fight against the ARC.
What Are The Week 5 ARC Raiders Trials Challenges?
Week 5 of ARC Raiders introduces five new Trials that emphasize precision, efficiency, and consistent extraction performance. These objectives require players to demonstrate both offensive and tactical skill to secure top leaderboard positions and maximize reward tiers.
Current Trial Objectives
| Trial Name | Core Objective | Key Focus |
|---|---|---|
| Rocketeers | Inflict sustained damage on Rocketeer-type enemies. | Prioritize mobility and explosive avoidance while returning fire. |
| Hidden Bunker | Retrieve and download data within concealed bunker zones. | Manage time effectively during data transfers and ensure safe extraction. |
| First Wave Husks | Locate and inspect First Wave Husks spread throughout mission areas. | Explore methodically to complete searches before extraction. |
| Snitches | Deal direct damage to Snitch-class targets. | Track fast-moving enemies using precision weapons. |
| Ground ARC Units | Engage and damage ground-based ARC combatants. | Control engagements to maintain consistent damage and survivability. |
Each challenge uses a single-run scoring model, meaning only a player’s best recorded score from one complete raid session counts. Scores do not accumulate across separate missions, requiring participants to deliver peak performance in one attempt to achieve higher star rankings.
Star ratings range from one to three, with increasing thresholds tied to player performance. Achieving three stars guarantees Epic-tier rewards, often including weapon components, armor parts, or other valuable materials found within Packs. Higher scores also influence placement on the global leaderboard, connecting individual success to seasonal progression and cosmetic unlocks.
These Trials encourage balanced team compositions and adaptive strategies. Players who focus on both mission efficiency and combat accuracy can steadily improve their rankings. Week 5’s lineup underscores the game’s focus on mechanical skill, teamwork, and repeatable high-performance play rather than cumulative progression across multiple missions.
