All Phantom Targets Project Challenges & Exclusive Rewards in Arc Raiders
By Alexander Ross
Solo players face extreme difficulty when tackling late-tier Phantom objectives, making team composition paramount. Field runs confirm that balanced loadouts consistently triumph over uniform squads running identical weapon platforms.
- The Point Recon: Armed with a suppressed DMR and sensory pulse darts. Their sole responsibility involves marking perimeter patrols and identifying cloaked relay drones before the squad steps into the open.
- The Defensive Anchor: Equipped with heavy deployable shields, repair torches, and an automatic shotgun. This player holds the perimeter during the three-minute data siphon sequences, repelling swarming ground units.
- The Courier Striker: Built entirely for mobility, carrying smoke grenades and high-capacity stamina injectors. When the siphon completes, this player secures the physical telemetry drive and leads the team along concealed ravines toward the extraction pad.
Relying on random squad fills without voice communication routinely ends in wipeouts during Tier 4 and Tier 5 operations. When rival raiders hear a siphon alarm trigger, they rarely hesitate to set ambush perimeters outside extraction elevators. Sound discipline and timing smoke deployments precisely as the recovery bird lands remain mandatory survival techniques.
