In Arc Raiders, there are many ways to earn top-tier materials and blueprints, but one of the best methods is earning three stars on each of the five Trials weekly. These Trials act like a ranking system, rewarding players with valuable loot and unique cosmetic items based on their final rank at the end of the season.
If you want to quickly grab some gear, here’s how to get three stars in the Week 4 Trials of Season 2 in Arc Raiders.
Make sure to complete all your Trials on maps with double XP events, such as Night Raids, Cold Snap, Electromagnetic Storm, and Locked Gate. Doing so helps you reach the 4,000 point target needed for three stars consistently.
Deliver Carriables Trial
In this challenge, you must pick up rectangular boxes and safely deliver four of them to their designated locations. These boxes could be for Field Depots, puzzle pieces like in the Ancient Fort, or batteries that open huge doors in Stella Montis.
Field Depots are the easiest to complete for three stars since they often spawn near structures, and most maps have several depots. I recommend doing this during the Hidden Bunker event on Spaceport because the 40-minute timer and daytime setting make crates easier to spot. All depots are on the outside of the main wall, so hitting four along the perimeter is straightforward. Just be careful while carrying crates because your weapons will be stored away, leaving you vulnerable to attacks from ARC or enemy Raiders.
Damage Rocketeers Trial
To earn three stars here, you need to destroy two Rocketeers, boosting your score above 4,000 points. The best locations are Dam Battlegrounds or Spaceport, where they tend to spawn nearby.
At Dam Battlegrounds, look north near the Power Generation Complex or southeast by the Hydroponic Dome. At Spaceport, they can be found around the central tower’s outer area, near Container Storage, and along the northern trench. Use Wolfpack grenades to take them out quickly; two grenades are enough to destroy a Rocketeer. If you lack those, bring an Anvil or Renegade—they can target the rotors, which when destroyed, cause the Rocketeer to crash. Using a Showstopper grenade to disable systems and stun them makes finishing the job easier.
Destroy Pops Trial
This is the simplest challenge. You need to eliminate five Pops during a double XP event to reach three stars. Since Pops die after just a few rounds, almost any weapons will get the job done, so you can do this with a free loadout if you prefer.
Try focusing on high spawn areas like Sandbox, Assembly Workshops, Lobby, and Communications, as these locations tend to have more Pops, making the task easier.
Download Data Inside The Bunker Trial
This challenge is available only during the Hidden Bunker event at Spaceport. Enter the bunker, activate the four satellite dishes on the rooftops by interacting with the consoles, and then head to the bunker south of Departure Building. Inside, you’ll find several consoles on two floors to interact with.
Each console will turn yellow and emit a looping sound when ready. Wait for the blinking to turn green, then interact again to download data. This process must be completed on four different consoles, and you can also interact with consoles activated by other players. It’s best to do this solo, as players are generally friendly and willing to cooperate, despite occasional PvP encounters.
Damage Hornets Trial
The final challenge involves destroying 12 Hornets to pass the 4,000 point mark for three stars. The open map areas on The Blue Gate or Spaceport make spotting and shooting Hornets easier.
On Spaceport, elevated positions like the rooftops of the Departure or Arrival buildings give a clear view of their patrol routes. On The Blue Gate, spots such as Broken Earth or the mountain near Warehouse Complex work well.
Use weapons with good accuracy and range, like Ferro, Anvil, or Renegade, to quickly eliminate them. Aim for the back fans—knocking them out will cause the Hornet to crash. Don’t forget to carry extra medications and ammunition to stay prepared during these fights.
