Deal as much damage as possible using a Blaze Grenade: How to get the BEST score in ARC Raiders Trials
To Deal as much damage as possible using a Blaze Grenade effectively:
- Load into any map that contains a Bastion or Bombardier spawn
- Find a good spot to make sure the ARC doesn’t move too much but also provides you cover
- Throw a well-placed Blaze Grenade at the Bastion or Bombardier
- Your score is judged on a single Blaze Grenade use, and not total
- You’ll earn up to 5,400 score on a near-perfect Blaze Grenade
In this guide, we’ll go over the best ways to approach and Deal as much damage as possible using a Blaze Grenade
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 a single Blaze Grenade. If thrown at a large ARC, you can expect the range of 2,000-5,000~ score. The system only measures the highest damage you achieve through a single Blaze Grenade.
What you’ll need
For this Trial, the objective requires dealing as much Blaze Grenade damage as possible within the raids time limit. As a result, you’ll mostly need essentials, a gun to defend yourself with and Blaze Grenades. 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
Blaze Grenades as you can afford to bring for more attempts at a high score
Can I use a Free Loadout for the Deal as much damage as possible using a Blaze Grenade weekly Trial?
No, we do not currently recommend attempting this in a Free Loadout. Blaze Grenades are a must for the Trial. As a result, a Free Loadout where you cannot bring your own equipment would create a lot of issues.
Should I use aggression-based matchmaking for friendly lobbies?
Yes, we also highly recommend utilizing this method for friendly lobbies as it yields consistently safe results.
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 Dam Battlegrounds. You can do this on the normal map or any conditions you prefer. Check our Event Timers to know when your next chance is!
Strategy
For our example, we selected Dam Battlegrounds to find a Bastion or Bombardier spawn.
Solo and Party lobby
This Trial can be attempted in solo or party lobbies, it will not change the way the trial works, however. As a result, there is really no benefit from picking one lobby type over the other.
If you’re dealing with a Bombardier, we recommend taking out the Spotters first. It’s better to do so to make sure the Bombardier isn’t perfectly accurate after you aggro it.
Once you’re ready to attempt your Blaze Grenade throw, prepare yourself to make some movements close to the ARC you’re throwing it at. You’ll want to keep the Bombardier or Bastion as still as possible to get the most out of the Blaze Grenade’s flame.
Landing a clean Blaze Grenade and keeping the Bombardier or Bastion in place (until you have to take cover) will easily earn your 3-star reward and even push the 5,000+ score mark.
Finally, remember that your score is judged on a SINGLE Blaze Grenade. Even if you throw 50 Blaze Grenades in a match, only the highest damage achieved from one will count.
