As someone who’s been playing the game for less than a month and exclusively solo, here’s my quick use set to guarantee you don't die to arcs:
  1. Photoelectric Cloak
  2. Shield Rechargers (any)
  3. Bandages (any)
  4. Seeker Grenades
  5. (optional) Seeker Grenades
I don’t know how the blueprint system works so this may be more or less easy a list to fill out for each run, but I have zero issues with any arcs with this loadout.

Keep the cloak ready to go at a moment’s notice and you’ll never have to worry about getting caught unawares outdoors. Seekers can take out anything smaller than a Rocketeer in 2-3 throws. If you’re trying loot/examine something and a drone is nearby, just toss a couple and you’ll have some breathing room.

That’s just some expert advice from a pro who’s still in carebear lobbies terrified of engaging with pvp. :punished:

Hornet Drivers are better at taking out flying bots than Seekers, so long as you get it near them for them to get zapped.

turns out flying units just flip upside down and hit the ground and take constant ground contact damage, seekers are just cheaper to craft/collect, but the Hornet Drive works so well it can sometimes completely kill a Rocketeers if it lands funky.

Anyone have tips on completing this week's middle and last trials? I'm getting tired of doing runs where everyone else is rushing the same trial and nobody gets any points.

Searching opened and empty containers still counts for the trial. Also, squad up and eliminate any rivals doing the objective you're doing.

New update: https://arcraiders.com/news/flashpoint-content-update

Looks like there's a new arc:

And also 2 new guns

Its a shame that these both seem at first glance to be anti-ARK guns. I'm really excited for the new flyer though! It looks like its even bigger than the rocketeer!

don't be fooled, something can be anti-arc and still be good, the Anvil is an Anti-Arc weapon.. yet its very good at peek shooting.
 
I notice all new Arcs are either rolling on floor type or flying quad copter type. With different gimmicks and sizes.

I wonder when/if we get a weird dog robots or humanoid type robots. The thing is I think they would totally change the dynamics of existing maps so I suspect if it happened it would have to be on a new map.
 
This new event thing is actually fun. Gotta work together while fly swatter take the loot.
Fly swatter now has a purpose.
Shredders are a nice surprise.
Scrappy is better.
QoL improvements are nice.
If updates continue in this manner this game will be fun again.
 
an absolute chaos game mode, just an absurd amount of Arc on screen, the only problem is tons of people loading in with kettles and shit just being an absolute waste of time, hoping to get shit for free.
If you see someone in this event with no Arc killing gear, just kill them, and tell everyone why, people are tired of the scavengers looting Queens, Rocketeers or w/e after they are dead and having done noting to kill the thing in question, this event heightens that to a new level, they run in and try and loot the Assessors without any mind to all the shit you are killing so YOU can loot the assessor.

Kill all fucking scavs.
 
Yep, I've found the optimal strategy:
1) sit around near the super probe
2) retards will approach and try to loot
3) retards get killed.
4) loot the retards

So many level 4 guns and other high level equipment, just waiting for you.

I do this, but I also just shoot them when they go to breach the thing, or throw a sticky nade at them, or a lure nade or w/e.

Turns out, you can just shoot people.
