The North Line update has turned Arc Raiders into a whole different beast. Battles on Stella Montis feel faster, nastier, and you do not really get second chances anymore. If you are still relying on slow heals or hoping your team will cover you, you are gonna get dropped. The smart way now is to chain instant recovery with heal-over-time. Hit a Vita Shot for that quick 50 HP boost, then slap on a Bandage while you move – the effects work together, and you will be back to full in seconds. Same goes for shields: if they are gone, drop a Surge Recharger and layer it with a regular shield for near-instant recovery. Get these set up in your quick-slot, because reacting fast is the difference between walking away or losing your run. And if you are tight on supplies, you can craft Sterilized Bandages at a Med Station II, so you never run dry. Trust me, having that covered means you spend more time farming and less time buying ARC Raiders Coins to make up for lost gear.

Movement’s just as important as heals, and small tweaks go a long way. Sprint Rolls cover more ground than normal rolls, which is perfect for dodging shotgun blasts in tight fights. You know that slow, painful mantle animation when you are out of stamina? Pop a stim before vaulting – keeps momentum and buys you a clean getaway. There is also a neat crouch-back-jump-mantle trick on Outpost shelves that gets you onto high ground and into sneaky loot spots. If you are going for tank builds, pairing a Heavy Shield with the ‘Use of Weight’ perk gives huge damage reduction while keeping your speed up. Combine that with mobile crouch-walk revives and you can bail teammates out without being a sitting duck. I have even seen players pull the extraction lever while downed, snatching victory in the last second.

When the fight kicks off, pick your shots. Against ARCs, going for weak points first saves ammo and time, and nets better parts for crafting. Rocketeers are easy kills if you crash their turbines with a Showstopper EMP. In PvP, Jolt Mines are great for stopping rushers cold. You can mess with opponents by rigging ziplines or elevators, so anyone chasing you takes damage before even getting close. Throwables stir up chaos – a smoke or grenade can split a group or mask your escape. Dropping a Noisemaker near extraction gives a heads-up if someone’s coming in, which can be the edge you need. And yeah, faking a friendly emote still works – folks relax, walk right in, and suddenly you are looting their pack.

Loot’s the end game, and smart farming beats luck every time. Check locked rooms first – they are a safe bet for high-value gear. During lightning storms, hit commercial districts since blueprint drops spike there. Assembly Silos hide a lot of good crates, and residential spots give trinkets, keys... all decent trade value. Keep crafting bandages and stims while you move, so you do not have to break the run to resupply. Tracking workshop materials leads you straight to what you need without wasting time. ARC Probes and Field Depots are always worth hitting – they reveal hidden spots that usually hold rare gear. Nail these routines, and you will walk out heavy, whether it is in loot or in progress on your ARC Raiders Battle pass.
