Embark Shifts Arc Raiders Rewards: Smash Bots for Greater Fun and Value
Embark has revised Expeditions in Arc Raiders for its third cycle. The developer outlined a new way to earn permanent upgrades.
Expeditions let players reset progress for long-term benefits. Rewards include extra stash space and additional skill points.
How the new Expedition works
- Skill Points are now earned by dealing damage during a five-day window.
- The window runs Tuesday through Sunday. Players get five days to complete the challenge.
- Anyone who has finished their Caravan receives the challenge automatically. No sign-up is required to view it.
- Damage with any weapon or gadget counts. Practice range targets do not qualify.
- All five skill points are tied to damage output, regardless of expedition number.
Why Embark changed the system
The developer said grinding for stash value felt tedious for many players. The change aims to reward active combat instead of hoarding.
Embark explained the goal is to encourage using loot rather than stockpiling it. The team wants Expeditions to be fun, not endless chores.
Player impact and rewards
These adjustments should reduce matches where fast, veteran players clear all basic scrap immediately. More players can engage with fights.
The update also nudges players to pull rare guns and shields from the vault. Many had avoided risking their gear under the old system.
Players who completed the first two Expeditions will unlock the final piece of the Patchwork outfit by finishing this third cycle.
Embark shifts Arc Raiders rewards toward combat by asking players to smash bots for greater fun and value. This change promises livelier Expeditions.
