ARC Raiders — IGN key art for game guide

Position before precision

Most ARC Raiders fights are decided by angle, not reaction speed. Take cover that protects one flank, clear the threat you expose, then re-angle.

Third-party timing is everything in co-op extraction shooter lobbies. If audio suggests another squad closing, finish fast or reset — long beams invite wipes.

Team trade rules

When a teammate engages, play for immediate trade or space denial — never watch a 1v1 from idle cover. In ARC Raiders, numbers win isolated duels.

Call out health, utility used, and direction. Even short comms prevent double-peeks and wasted cooldowns.

When to disengage

If you win a fight but lose the objective timer, you still lost the round. Disengage when heals are gone, extractions are closing, or zone pressure spikes.

Banking survival keeps your kit and momentum. ARC Raiders rewards players who know when not to shoot.
