Weekly Trials Overview

This guide will show you how to three-star all weekly trials in just two matches without extensive preparation or specific blueprints. We'll cover throwing snowballs at Rocketeers, damaging flying ARC enemies, opening ARC probes, destroying fireballs (all on Cold Snap), and dealing damage to Shredders (on Stella Montes Night Raid).

Step 1: Throw Snowballs at Rocketeers

For a three-star trial, you'll need to throw 16 snowballs at a Rocketeer. Snowballs spawn in clumps around most buildings on all maps. You can collect one snowball, wait two seconds, and collect another from the exact same spot to stack them efficiently.

• Collect 20-25 snowballs before engaging if possible.
• Snowballs will respawn after a short delay, allowing you to pick up multiple from a single spot.

Bringing Down a Rocketeer

Rocketeers are flying enemies, so you need a strategy to ground them:

• **Less Reliable Method:** Use a Showstopper or Hornet Driver to stun it and hope it lands on its back. This method relies heavily on luck and timing.
• **Consistent Method:** Shoot two thrusters on the same side of the Rocketeer. This will disable its flight and bring it to the ground.
• Focus only on the thrusters. Damaging other parts might destroy it before both thrusters are out, making it fly again.

Once grounded, pelt the Rocketeer with snowballs until the trial requirement is met. Each snowball deals 1 damage.

Step 2: Damage Flying ARC Enemies

This trial requires damaging flying ARC enemies like Snitches, Wasps, and Hornets.

• Find high ground, such as the Grandioso apartment buildings, for better visibility and engagement.
• Shoot Snitches; they will often spawn waves of Wasps and Hornets, which are flying ARC enemies.
• You'll encounter another Rocketeer later in the match. Aim to damage its thrusters without killing it if other players are around, so they can also complete their trials.

Step 3: Open ARC Probes

To complete this trial, you need to open and loot three ARC probes.

• Look for smoke plumes rising into the air across the map; these indicate crashed ARC probes.
• When you get close, probes will appear on your minimap. Regularly open your map to spot them as you traverse the area.
• You can loot probes that other players have already breached and opened.

Step 4: Destroy Fireballs

You'll need to destroy six fireballs for this trial.

• A great location for fireballs on Buried City (Cold Snap) is the underground Metro area. In Cold Snap events, the Metro is open, allowing full access.
• After eliminating fireballs on one side of the Metro, call the train to cross over and find more on the other side.
• Fireballs also spawn in other buildings like the Hospital, Space Travel, Research & Administration, and Galleria.

Step 5: Deal Damage to Shredders

This trial is best done on Stella Montes Night Raid, where you only need to eliminate three Shredders (instead of six on a normal day raid).

• **Weapons and Explosives:**
• Two Snapblast grenades or five Impact grenades thrown at the Shredder's bottom can destroy it.
• Synthesized Fuel also acts as an effective makeshift explosive and is commonly found in the lobby.
• The Anvil or Il Toro shotgun are effective weapons. Aim for the three thrusters on the Shredder to quickly destroy it.
• **Tactics:** Utilize cover to peek in and out, shooting the Shredder. Retreat behind cover when it's about to fire.
• **Looting:** Always loot Shredder Gyros, as they are a new requirement for expeditions.
• **Spawn Locations:** Shredders can be found in the Lobby, Sandbox area, Loading Bay Metro, Cultural Archives, Seed Vault Metro/Escape Area, and between Assembly Workshops and Medical Research.
