Damage ARC using Jump Mine: How to get the BEST score in ARC Raiders Trials
To damage ARC using Jump Mine (Explosive Mine) effectively:
- Load into any map that has a Bombardier or Bastion (preferably Bombardier)
- Bait a Bastion in a good place of cover or use Lure Grenades
- Either take out a leg with a heavy weapon, or use Lure Grenade to get close
- Place Jump Mine (Explosive Mine) near the legs of the Bastion or Bombardier
- Get around 500-900~ score per mine, totaling 4-6 mines needed for 3-star reward
- Extract when you’re done!
In this guide, we’ll go over the best ways to approach and damage ARC using Jump Mine to maximize your score and etch your place in the Speranza hotshots.
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 dealing damage with Jump Mines (also known as an Explosive Mine in-game) to ARC. You can expect around 500-900~ score on a well-placed mine.
What you’ll need
For this Trial, the objective requires dealing as much Jump Mine damage as possible within the raids time limit. As a result, you’ll mostly need basic medical consumables, a gun to defend yourself with and some Jump Mines (Explosive Mines). We recommend bringing:
- Any gun + Ammo you feel like bringing as a back-up plan
Survivor MK.3 Augment - Medium Shield (recommended to survive accidents with a Bastion or Bombardier)
- 5
Shield Rechargers - 5-10
Bandages - As many
Jump Mines (Explosive Mines) as possible 
Photoelectric Cloak
Smoke Grenades
Adrenaline Shots
Can I use a Free Loadout for the Damage ARC using Jump Mine weekly Trial?
No, you cannot realistically complete this trial with a Free Loadout. Without Jump Mines you cannot attempt this challenge and you cannot get these with a Free Loadout.
Map
There is not a best map to recommend for this Trial. However, you can select a map that has either Bastion or Bombardier spawn, such as Spaceport. You can do this on the normal map or any conditions you prefer. Check our Event Timers to know when your next chance is!
The Strategy is very simple, load into the map of your choice, and head towards the nearest Bastion spawn you can find. In this example, we went to Spaceport and headed to one of the Bastion spawns on the map.
Once you get into a good spot either by using Lure Grenades or breaking a leg of the Bastion, you can move in and set-up some mines.
once placed, get to cover as soon as possible and let the mines explode.
After they explode you’ll deal damage and get score. If you break a leg with the mine, you can walk back over and plant another by more of its legs. Repeat this until you get 3,000+ score. After getting your 3-star reward, you can extract and claim your rewards. With a Bastion, you may need to use two Bastions if you don’t seem to get much score. Alternatively, we recommend looking for Bombardiers instead.
