The skill tree in ARC Raiders is fundamental for improving yourselves, but which talents should you choose first? We took a closer look at the system and provide you with important tips so that you are ready for the release.
How does the skill tree work? Those who collect enough XP in ARC Raiders will be able to gather skill points over time. With these points, you activate different nodes on your skill tree to benefit from permanent bonuses. These include increased movement speed while sneaking or stamina regeneration while walking.
Equipment is not everything in ARC Raiders, so it is important to know how to optimally spend your points. With a strong build, you can also outplay your enemies more easily. Therefore, we show you where to focus while leveling up.
Skill tree in detail – Here’s how you should level up
If you want to optimally level your skill tree, you need to know how it is initially structured. In total, you have three areas available that you can equip with skill points independently of each other. Each of these areas offers its own bonuses, which are as follows:
- Conditioning (green)
- This is all about your health and stamina – essentially your will to survive.
- Mobility (yellow)
- Everything related to movement, your speed, and stamina can be found here,
- Survival (red)
- Here you will find everything regarding looting, your carrying capacity, and breaking open containers.
Now it’s time to find out what is important for you. Do you mostly play alone and have no backup? Then you should increase your speed while looting and breaking open. If you are mostly in a squad, you should prioritize your movement speed and climbing. Mobility and survival are your main areas to focus on.
Conditioning is a branch among the three points that you can fill sporadically, but not necessarily. The green bonuses simply do not perform as well compared to yellow and red. If you want to experiment a bit, you can use arcraiders.build. There you can also find other builds that might interest you.
How to reset the skill tree for a respec
How can you reset the skill tree? Only if you participate in an expedition project. These expeditions appear every 8 weeks and offer new rewards, but you must first be level 20. Once you have completed the expedition, you can completely reset your progress and your accumulated loot (account level and collected cosmetic items are excluded).
This expedition represents the seasonal wipe, but it is entirely optional. If you do not wish to participate, you can safely ignore it and keep your leveled-up raider. However, if you want to reset your raider and try a new build, there is no way around the expedition.
These were all the details about the skill tree in ARC Raiders. Do you already have a build in mind that you would like to try right now? Fortunately, the release is today, so you won’t have to wait too long.
