Weekly Trial Overview

This week’s trials include:

• Damaging fireflies
• Damaging flying Arc enemies inside spaceport walls
• Damaging queens or matriarchs
• Opening Arc probes
• Opening containers inside the traffic tunnel

These challenges are not overly difficult but require smart targeting and point optimization.

Fireflies and Flying Arc Enemies

Fireflies

Each firefly gives 800 points, meaning you only need five to reach around 4,000 points for 3 stars. Recommended loadouts include Jupiter, Seeker Grenades, or Anvil Renegades for consistent scoring. Avoid farming sneeze scanners—they give minimal points.

Flying Arc Enemies

• Small Arc (Wasp): ~240 points each
• Hornets: Higher points per enemy
• Rocketeers: ~2,000 points each

Targeting Hornets or Rocketeers allows you to reach 3 stars efficiently. A combination of 2 Rocketeers or 8–10 small Arc enemies is usually sufficient.

Arc Probes

Focus on Electromagnetic Storm maps for better probe density. Simply breach and search 3–4 probes, as each gives ~1,334 points, enough for 3 stars. Spaceport is optimal due to its flat layout and easier probe spotting.

Queens or Matriarchs

This is one of the trickier challenges:

• Recommended loadout: Hole Cracker, Deadlines, Wolf Packs
• Focus on hitting the core repeatedly for maximum points
• Stealth and positioning matter; avoid unnecessary aggro

With a careful approach, you can reach 3,000–6,800 points, securing 3 stars without taking unnecessary risks.

Traffic Tunnel Containers

• Open breachable cars, lockers, and boxes
• Each container gives 100 points (200 with 2x conditions)
• Aim for 20 containers for guaranteed 3 stars

Recommended maps include Bluegate, ElectroStorm, or Night Raids, as 2x conditions boost your points. This is arguably the easiest trial of the week.

Final Tips for Fast 3-Star Completion

• Prioritize high-value targets: Hornets, Rocketeers, Matriarchs
• Choose maps with flat terrain for easy maneuvering
• Leverage 2x conditions whenever possible for bonus points
• Use loadouts strategically for optimal damage output

With these strategies, you can quickly secure 3 stars across all trials and climb the leaderboard before the season ends.
