Arc Raiders switches up Expeditions and now skill points are earned from damage dealt, not stash value

Key Points:

• Embark Studios announced that starting with the April 28th Expedition Window in Arc Raiders, Skill Points will be earned by dealing damage during the five-day event instead of accumulating stash value, aiming to make gameplay more engaging and less grind-heavy.
• All players who have completed their Caravan can participate in the damage challenge without signing up beforehand, with five days to deal damage using any weapon or gadget against any target except the practice range.
• Catch-up mechanics remain tied to stash value for players on their second or third expeditions who missed Skill Points previously, requiring completion of the damage challenge first to unlock this feature.
• The Expedition Window opens at noon UK time on April 28th and closes on May 4th, with players needing to sign up during this period to participate, and expeditions must be completed in order as part of personal progression.
• Additionally, Embark Studios recently launched a new online tracker on the Arc Raiders website to help players monitor current and upcoming map conditions, enhancing strategic planning for expeditions.
