ARC RAIDERS / GUIDE 06
Beating an ARC machine takes more than damage. Shooting the right target from the right angle protects both your ammunition and your chance of getting home.
01. Know Why You Are FightingYou do not need to shoot every machine that is unrelated to your objective, materials, or route. With valuable loot on you, consider whether going around is the better trade. |
02. Respect the SnitchA Snitch can summon ARC reinforcements. If you commit to fighting it, avoid leaving it active for a prolonged exchange; have a fallback route if you cannot finish quickly. |
03. Change Your Angle Against HornetsA Hornet’s rear thrusters are unarmored. Look for an angle instead of spraying the front, but avoid standing exposed for too long while chasing the perfect shot. |
04. Match Your Cover and AmmunitionPick your cover before engaging a large target. Low ammunition or healing is a reason to reassess, not a reason to keep fighting just because you already started. |
05. Pause Before LootingRecheck the area after the target falls. Other players drawn by gunfire or nearby machines may still pose a threat; reload before approaching the wreck. |
Master One Enemy at a TimeInstead of attempting a different large target every run, learn the attack rhythm of one enemy that drops a needed component. Repeat successful encounters under similar conditions. |
Version Note(This section covers a basic approach. Not every ARC type shares the same weak points or ammunition efficiency.) |
