❓ Trials FAQ

What are Arc Raiders Trials?

Trials are weekly competitive challenges in Arc Raiders that reward points toward Cantina ranks. Each week introduces 5 new challenges involving specific enemies, objectives, or map conditions. Points are earned during raids and only count on successful extraction.

How do I get Cantina Legend in Arc Raiders?

Cantina Legend requires accumulating approximately 250,000 total trial points across the season. You need to consistently three-star most weekly trials and take advantage of major events (Night Raid, EM Storm) for the 2x point multiplier. Start early in the season and don't miss weeks.

Do major events affect trial points?

Yes. Running trials during major map events like Night Raid or Electromagnetic Storm gives a 2x point multiplier on all trial-related actions. This means you need half the kills or objectives to reach three-star thresholds. Always check the events tracker before starting a trials run.

What happens if I die during a trials run?

You lose all unextracted trial points for that raid. Your points only count on successful extraction. Once you hit the three-star threshold for a trial, extract immediately rather than risking death for marginal extra points.

Can my squad help with trials?

Yes. Squad members earn points for the same kills and objectives. One Rocketeer kill gives full points to everyone in the squad. This makes coordinated team play the most efficient approach.
