Damage ARC using Blaze Grenade: How to get the BEST score in ARC Raiders Trials
To damage ARC using Blaze Grenade effectively:
- Load into any map that has a Bombardier
- For our example, head to the Dam Battleground map and the “Primary Facility” POI on the map
- Bring at least 4 Blaze Grenades
- Utilize the little office hut as a cover spot between throwing Blaze Grenades at the Bombardier
- Each Blaze grenade gets you around 750~ score if it fully hits the Bombardier
- As a result, 4 Blaze Grenades can give you the 3-star reward, bringing more to make sure doesn’t hurt!
- Extract when finished
In this guide, we’ll go over the best ways to approach and damage ARC using Blaze Grenade to maximize your score for the 3-star reward or higher.
Trial Preparation
This trial can be done in all party sizes to an effective level. Whether that’s gaining your 3-star rating (which requires 3000 score) or pushing to maximize your points for promotion.
Scoring
The scoring for this Trial only comes from damaging ARC with Blaze Grenades. Each well-placed Blaze Grenade on a Bombardier nets around 750~ score. You’ll need 4-5 good Blaze Grenades to guarantee your score for the Trial.
What you’ll need
For this Trial, the objective requires dealing as much damage with Blaze Grenades as possible. As a result, we recommend bringing a self-defense weapon to pick off other annoying ARC that could get in the way, some consumables, and most importantly, the Blaze Grenades:
Anvil IV or something cheap like a
Ferro I- Any Augment is fine, however, we recommend the
Looting MK.3 (Survivor) incase of any accidents
Light Shield or
Medium Shield to tank some extra Bombardier shots if a mistake is made- 5+
Shield Rechargers - 5+
Bandages - 60
Heavy Ammo - At least 4-6
Blaze Grenades – the more the better for higher score!
Can I use a Free Loadout to damage ARC using Blaze Grenade for the weekly Trials?
No, we currently do not recommend using a Free Loadout for this trial. You’ll need at least 4 Blaze Grenades to get the 3-star reward, which is basically next to impossible on a Free Loadout. As a result, come in prepared for the trial, and craft as many Blaze Grenades beforehand as possible.
Map
This weekly Trial can be completed on any map as long as there is a Bombardier spawn. However, we’ve picked Dam Battleground for ease of access to a Bombardier (and a safe spot) on Electromagnetic Storm. Check our Event Timers to know when your next chance is at any preferred condition you may have when playing.
The BEST Route for Maximizing Score
The strategy for this trial is nice and easy, takes no time at all and has minimal risk. First, wherever you may spawn at the start, head straight to the top of the “Primary Facility” POI. This is where the Bombardier is guaranteed to spawn in a condition map such as Electromagnetic Storm.
Once you arrive at the Bombardier, the first thing to identify is the safe spot location we use to protect ourselves. It is a small office hut right next to the Bombardier spawn.
This hut acts as a safe zone for us to hide away from missile fire as the Blaze Grenade ticks on the Bombardier. When you’re ready, equip your Blaze Grenades and throw them one at a time. The damage doesn’t stack properly for score so it’s important to throw them one at a time.
As soon as you’ve thrown the Blaze Grenade, immediately rush back into the safety of the hut, and watch the score tick up.
You won’t always get a perfect amount of score from Blaze Grenades, so even though you can technically get your 3-star reward score with only 4 Blaze Grenades, we highly suggest bringing in more to guarantee your rewards.
After about 5-6 Blaze Grenades, the Bombardier is likely to be destroyed or very close. For very high scores you may have to rotate into other ARC or wait for another Bombardier to spawn.
Once you’re out of Blaze Grenades or time, head to the nearest extract and you’re done!
