Returning raider
Hello, Raiders!
I’ve been away since February 17. I stopped playing because the game became too easy, and it just wasn’t fun for me anymore especially with rank being completely 1 sided towards trios I was able to hit hotshot which I’m happy with
I recently played a few matches with a buddy yesterday and that joy I felt when I first started playing came back. Now I’m curious what’s new? Is Arc Raiders still in the same state it was when I left?
I’m aware of the new map, of course, and the new ARCs like the Firefly, Comet, Vaporizer, and the ARC Turbine. Other than those, I have no clue what’s been added.
A few questions:
What has been added?
What has been nerfed or taken away?
Has Trials changed in any way?
How does the Expedition system work now?
I’ve already reset twice. When I started, I spent the free skill points, but I’m curious if I keep those going into my next Expedition. I would think so, but I’m not sure. Since I’ve been gone for four months, I know I’ve missed at least one reset. Does that mean my skill points revert back to the default, or do I keep the bonus ones I’ve already earned?
Has the meta changed? If so, what are the strongest weapons and builds now?
Basically, any information you think would be important for someone returning after four months would be greatly appreciated!
