ARC Raiders
ARC Raiders: Shoot the Machine, Not the Panic
ARC Raiders is an extraction shooter against machines. Damage windows matter more than spraying a hull until your mag is empty.
Read the silhouette before you dump ammo
ARC units telegraph weak plates with glow and joint movement. Hit joints and optics first. Body shots waste the mag you need for the next wave.
If a unit starts a sweep animation, move before you reload. Standing still to finish a clip is how a second machine flanks the same alley.
Audio is a resource
Full-auto on armor brings more ARC than it kills. Tap, reposition, then tap again. Quiet extracts beat highlight-reel sprays.
Use rubble and interior rooms to break line of sight. Machines track motion better than you think once they have a lock.
Extract with a plan, not a hope
Call extract before you are overloaded. Drop junk mods if they slow the sprint to the elevator.
One player watches the sky while another hits the panel. ARC Raiders punishes whole squads staring at a progress bar.
