Week 7 Trials in ARC Raiders is now live, and to earn its various rewards, we need to complete five different tasks.
Like the previous weeks, you'll have to get three stars for each task to receive the best available rewards. The tasks for the seventh week are primarily related to taking down specific types of ARC enemies. This guide will help you understand the nature of every task and how you can three-star them.

ARC Raiders Week 7 Trials guide
The Week 7 Trials can be broken down into five separate tasks.
- Destroy Ticks, Fireballs, and Pops
- Search Supply Drops
- Damage Wasps
- Damage Bastions
- Damage Queens or Matriarchs
Destroy Ticks, Fireballs, and Pops
This is the easiest of all tasks, as Fireballs are extremely common. You can run into them across large buildings on any map. I will recommend playing in Stella Montis as the region has plenty of Ticks and Fireballs. Encountering more of them will allow you to damage them repeatedly until you hit three stars. There's no specific spot, and Fireballs are pretty common in general.
Search Supply Drops
All maps in ARC Raiders have Supply Call Stations located all over the regions. When you interact with them, you can then call Supply Drops at the location. Supply Drops provide plenty of valuable loot for you to add to your inventory. Repeat this process a few times to earn three tasks at this rank.
Damage Wasps
One of the easier aerial ARCs, Wasps can be found near larger buildings. You can also find them near elevators, but be careful as they're rarely alone. Moreover, they can also call in larger ARCs, so try to destroy them as quickly as possible. To take down a Wasp, you'll want to target its rotors specifically. Once unbalanced, it won't be able to target you efficiently.
Damage Bastions
I have yet to find a specific spot after hours of gameplay where you can always find the Bastion. I have encountered them the most on Blue Gate, so you can begin your search there. Typically, you won't want to get caught in front of a Bastion since its guns will absolutely shred you. Instead, try to target the large cylinders on its back. This job will be easier if you're playing in a group, as one of you can distract it, allowing the other players to hit it.
Damage Queens or Matriarchs
This is arguably the hardest of the five tasks. While you don't have to kill a Queen/Matriarch, it will target you the moment you hit it for the first time. I have attached a map where you're almost guaranteed to either find a Queen or Matriarch (based on whether it has spawned as per the map condition). Make sure to dodge the rockets, and always keep distance (especially if it's the Queen you're up against).
