Today, fellow Raiders, I’m breaking down all the best tips, tricks, and efficient strategies to push your score quickly and reliably in every Trial category. Your goal: 4,000 points minimum for Tier 3 rewards, because those blueprint chances—especially Betina Blueprints—are far too good to skip. Let’s get right into it.

General Preparation

Before we break down the individual Trials, there are a few universal rules that will make your runs significantly faster and safer:

✔ Bring at least five Adrenaline Shots

Infinite stamina on demand is priceless. Whether you're rushing puzzle locations, juking wasps, or weaving around PvP, Adrenaline Shots are cheap and borderline mandatory.

✔ Run Solo (Usually)

ARC Raiders has a simple truth: solo to farm, trios to harm. Most Trials are easier, calmer, and more diplomacy-friendly solo. Players are significantly more cooperative on solo maps—especially during the Hidden Bunker event. When group play is beneficial, I’ll specify it.

✔ ALWAYS Run Trials at Night or During a Major Condition

This is huge: Night Raid, Electromagnetic Storm, and Hidden Bunker all grant DOUBLE TRIAL POINTS. Doing Trials in the daytime means doing twice the work for the same reward—don’t torture yourself. Example: The "Deliver Carriables" Trial requires eight deliveries for 4k points during the day. Good luck with that. Night condition cuts it to four, which is actually achievable.

1. Deliver Carriables — The Bluegate Puzzle Trick

Most players assume this Trial means running Supply Depots, searching nearby for canisters, and dragging them back. And yes—that works. If you prefer this method, use an interactive ARC Raiders map to route depots and canister spawns.

But the real, efficient method is far better: Run Bluegate at Night and Complete the Battery Puzzles. Bluegate has two locations that require carrying batteries to complete a puzzle:

  · Northern Battery Puzzle → Opens the Red Room

  · Southern Battery Puzzle → Opens the Cellar at Fort

Each battery you carry and insert counts as a carriable delivery and awards 1,000 points (2,000 during major conditions!).

Meaning:

Two puzzles + Night = 3,000 points instantly.

Do a single depot afterward or hit the second puzzle → you’re at 4k+ in minutes.

Just spawn, sprint, solve, and extract before trouble finds you.

2. Destroy Wasps — Three Reliable Strategies

This Trial seems simple: just kill Wasps during a major condition. But efficiency matters, and these three strategies are the gold standard. Strategy A: The Snitch Scanner Loop (Fastest if You Have Supplies)

If you have a stash of Snitch Scanners, or time to farm them:

  · Go to a quiet corner near an extract

  · Throw scanner → 2 Wasps spawn

  · Kill → repeat until you’re out

This method is insanely efficient, but it depends on scanner availability.

Strategy B: High-Ground Sniping

Find a tall tower or high overlook on your preferred map:

  · Great options: Spaceport launch tower, control tower

  · Equip a long-range ARC weapon: Osprey, Jupiter, or accurate Ferohsh shots

Simply pan the landscape and pick off Wasps as they spawn.

Warning: At extreme heights, some Wasps flicker in and out of render distance—don’t go too high.

Strategy C (Best): Abuse Snitches for Infinite Wasps

Snitches follow predictable patrol routes. Many maps (like Bluegate’s destroyed highway) have a snitch spawn point that repeatedly produces new snitches—sometimes dozens in a single raid.

The loop:

  1. Let Snitch see you → it goes red

  2. Wait for its Wasp + Hornet summon beam

  3. Immediately kill the Snitch

  4. Grab its intact Snitch Drive

  5. Throw drive → summon two more Wasps

  6. Repeat

Each snitch = 4 Wasps.

You only need to kill 10 Wasps for 4k points during major conditions.

Two snitches and a couple natural Wasps → you’re done.

3. Download Data — Hidden Bunker Survival

This one is simple on paper but chaotic in practice.

To complete it:

  · Reach the Hidden Bunker

  · Download data from consoles (8 total)

  · Each console gives points once

  · You need 5 consoles to hit 4,000 points

The download time is long, and multiple raiders crowd the same small bunker.

✔ Do it Solo—Groups Are Absolute Carnage

In solo mode, players naturally fall into cooperation because:

  · Everyone wants all 8 downloads

  · Fighting inside the bunker = mutual doom

  · Friendly emotes and proximity chat keep peace

  · Leaving together helps avoid extract griefers

Use voice, use emotes, take turns. Most solos are respectful because the alternative is everyone losing.

4. Destroy Bastions — Hidden Bunker Is Your Best Friend

If you can consistently kill a Bastion, you already win. A fully solo Bastion kill is enough to score 4k+ during major conditions.

There are two main ways to tackle this Trial:

Method 1: Farm Hidden Bunker Bastions (Guaranteed Spawns!)

During Hidden Bunker:

  · One Bastion always patrols outside the bunker entrance

  · Once the bunker opens, a second Bastion drops in

Kill both and you’ll hit 9k score with ease.

This method is incredibly consistent and avoids map-wide scanning.

Method 2: Bastion-Hunting on Your Favorite Map

If you don’t want to wait for a bunker run:

  1. Pick the map you’re most comfortable fighting on

  2. Wait for a night or an electromagnetic storm

  3. Check every Bastion spawn using your interactive map

  4. Burst it down quickly and move on

Pro Tip:

Shoot the knees. Breaking legs takes more shots, which means more damage → more score per Bastion.

5. Destroy Fireballs — Fast, Simple, and Respawning

This Trial is the least complicated. Fireballs frequently spawn inside:

  · Yellow loot buildings

  · Red loot buildings

  · Generator rooms

  · Hydroponics

  · Any dense residential clusters

The Strategy:

  1. Run your favorite map during major conditions

  2. Sprint between high-value loot buildings

  3. Smash Fireballs with an Anvil (usually a one-shot)

  4. Loop back to earlier locations—they respawn

  5. Extract once you hit 4k+

Hydroponics → Generators → repeat is a great loop. Solo runs again help you avoid conflict and maintain momentum.

Final Thoughts

This week’s Trials are very manageable—as long as you use night conditions and avoid unnecessary PvP. Bluegate puzzles, Snitch loops, bunker cooperation, and Bastion farming make the 4k requirement not just achievable, but efficient.
