Arc Raiders is the newest title from Embark Studios, and it's one that has attracted players who never thought they'd try an extraction shooter.
Now, we're approaching the dates for the second expedition, and we're going to run over all of the rewards that you'll be able to earn and more.
Here's all we know.
Arc Raiders Expedition 2: Rewards, Catch-Up and More
While many extraction shooters share the same common elements with one another, there are some aspects that Arc Raiders does differently.
Expeditions are one of these ways, as they're the games 'wipes' as we often refer to them in titles such as Escape From Tarkov. However, in Arc Raiders players will be incentivized to proceed with their expeditions, as they'll be able to earn the following rewards this time around:
The Trophy Display Project, along with your cosmetics, any Raider Deck progress, unlocked map regions, leaderboard position and Trials, Codex entries, and Raider Tokens will not be affected by the Expedition.
Permanent
- Cosmetics:
-
- The Patchwork outfit (evolved)
- Scrappy cosmetics
- The Expedition Indicator icon (upgraded for each expedition completed)
- Bonuses:
-
- 12→24 Stash spaces
- +0-5 Skill Points (+ catch up on missed Skill Points from the first Expedition, so 85 total is possible for those embarking on their second Expedition)
Consecutive
- Buffs:
-
- 5%→10% XP boost
- 6%→12% Scrappy materials boost
- 60%→70% Repair value increase
As well, Embark has noted the following regarding catch-up mechanics for players:
Catch Up Mechanic
For Raiders who could not amass enough Coins during the first Expedition, we are introducing a Skill Point catch up system allowing Raiders to reclaim the ones they missed. The catch up Skill Points will be heavily discounted, making the total Coins needed to reach max Skill Points less for each Expedition. Amass the entire Stash value and enjoy your Skill Points before everyone else, fail to do so and the catch-up system will allow you to close the gap over time.
For this Expedition, you will need to gather 300k Stash value per Skill Point missing from the first Expedition. When departing, Coins will contribute to the Skill Points of the second Expedition, before contributing to missing Skill Points from the first one.
Bear in mind that the rewards and requirements may change for future expeditions and bonus Skill Points won’t be available indefinitely for those that continue to depart.
