How to respec your skill tree in ARC Raiders
Progression is crucial to any extraction shooter, and ARC Raiders is no exception. Everything you do topside brings its own host of rewards, boosting your raider’s capabilities for each subsequent run. But sometimes you might have chosen the wrong skill, went down the suboptimal path, or overall changed your mind about your playstyle. And, for some reason, ARC Raiders makes respecing obscure and, ultimately, quite punishing. So, here’s all you need to know about skill tree resets in ARC Raiders.

You cannot click a button somewhere that lets you redistribute your skill points into different branches or skills. It’s a punishing system to be sure, but not one without merit. Instead of wiping the server and resetting everyone, ARC Raiders has a prestige system, not much unlike Hunt: Showdown, another extraction shooter where progress can be “reset” in exchange for some goodies. These are the Expeditions mentioned above. This is everything you’ll gain or lose when completing an Expedition. Screenshot by Destructoid At level 20, you unlock these Expeditions, which are completed in five stages, with each stage requiring specific materials to be cleared. Once you’ve done all five, you can send your Raider beyond the Rust Belt, permanently losing them and resetting your progression to zero. Expeditions are eight weeks long, giving each player 60 days to do them in full and “prestige” their accounts. And, while your overall progress will be back at first base, you retain every unlockable, like your Tokens, Cred, Decks, and so on. Quests, Workshops, Inventories, Stash upgrades, Coins, and Levels are totally wiped. Expeditions grant bonus level ups, XP, and Stash slots after completion, ultimately boosting your subsequent leveling, making this total reset a bit less painful.
