Embark Studios has released the Week 10 Trials for ARC Raiders. This update brings fresh objectives for players chasing high-value rewards. The developer releases five new challenges every Monday, so you have one full week to stack progress. While some fans criticise the system as repetitive, others enjoy the extra structure. Regardless of where you stand, completing these trials is the best way to earn specific loot tiers.
Here is everything you need to know about the Week 10 challenges.
This week’s curveball involves a specific environmental mechanic. Players must throw snowballs at Rocketeers. You cannot simply destroy them to progress. The challenge specifically requires a snowball hit.
To complete this, load into a map with the “Cold Snap” condition active. Once Topside, look at the snow-covered ground to collect snowballs. These add to your quick slot and work like any throwable item.
However, snowballs deal zero damage. Do not rely on them for kills. Instead, use this mechanic to set up the next challenge. Hit the Rocketeer with a snowball, then immediately switch weapons to destroy it. This offers great synergy with the “Deal damage to flying ARC enemies” trial.
Beyond the snowballs, Embark Studios has prepared four other combat and scavenging objectives.
The Trials system rewards precision and persistence. Earning stars in these challenges grants specific loot items:
Players who consistently rank high throughout the season will earn even better rewards. If you want the Epic loot, you need to hit that three-star mark before the next reset. Get Topside and start hunting.
