ARC Raiders Hurricane: How to Survive the Event
In brief
The Hurricane map event arrives in ARC Raiders on February 24th with the Shrouded Skies update. This challenging event will introduce major environmental hazards such as winds that reduce visibility and damage your shields, but it will also offer treasure opportunities to seize.
The Hurricane map event is coming to ARC Raiders, and it's crucial to be ready for this new challenge. Here's a complete tutorial to maximize your chances of survival during the event.
When will the Hurricane map event be available?
The Hurricane map event will be included in the Veiled Sky update releasing on Tuesday, February 24. Once the event is in place, you'll need to wait for the event rotation calendar to activate in order to take part in this new experience.
The Hurricane event looks set to be particularly difficult because, to deal with it, you'll need to tame the wind and its direct consequences. On paper, it doesn't sound so terrible. But don't be fooled! One small example: using grenades will become tricky, which won't make things any easier when facing off against certain ARC machines...
Environmental challenges
During the Hurricane event, the environment is affected by the wind, but not only that. The debris stirred up by it can also damage your shield. Although the impact is small, it's necessary to have good shield recharge power on hand so as not to be too vulnerable to enemy attacks.
You'll also notice that visibility will be a determining factor in this event. Stay as vigilant as possible, Raiders, since enemies will no doubt take advantage of your limited visibility to attack. Don't stand still, or you'll be easy prey!
Note
Take cover as much as possible while keeping an eye on your opponents...
That said, the Hurricane event obviously doesn't come without opportunities to seize. The storm could well help you discover raider caches from which invaluable treasures will emerge, but be careful, other players will also be on the lookout for a good find...
