In survival extraction games, players always find faster and smarter ways to handle enemies. In Arc Raiders, they’ve already discovered the simplest method to wipe out the Queen boss. Yes, that too without needing high-rarity loot. Raiders have tested a new trick using the Blaze Grenade that instantly kills the Queen in Arc Raiders. Here’s how it works and why Embark needs to fix it fast.
How to Kill the Queen in Arc Raiders with One Grenade
If you have already read our Arc Raiders Queen guide, you would know how much preparation it takes to take down the biggest ARC enemy in the game yet. However, this one trick changes the context of the spookiest boss fight.
To delete the Queen with one grenade, you cannot just use a normal explosive in Arc Raiders. Either unlock and craft the Blaze Grenade Trap or loot it from different games. You can craft the Blaze Grenade Trap using 1x Blaze Grenade and 1x Wire at Workbench level 1. Although you will need one, it is better to have a few more in your pocket just in case the trick goes sideways.
To kill the Queen in one shot, go under the ARC and equip the Blaze Grenade Trap. Now stick the trap exactly under the Queen. Once the trap pops, the Queen will start taking damage and, within a couple of seconds, get obliterated. You can then go ahead and loot the Queen.
Although this ARC enemy appears during the Harvester event, it is also the strongest enemy in the game. This automatically makes the Queen the best loot ARC, where you can also breach and loot the Harvester.
Embark Studios has yet to comment on this matter. However, some users suggest that the developers should disable the Blaze Grenade Trap until they come up with a solution for this. We have already seen raiders coming up with multiple glitches that help take down ARCs or even breach locked doors easily.
