You know that feeling when you finish a tough Blitz run in ARC Raiders, check your XP bar, and it’s barely moved? Happens to everyone. But here’s the thing – there’s a way to make that bar fly, and it’s all about taking down the Queen fast. No exploits, no weird bugs, just a smart setup. And at the heart of it is one gadget you can’t skip – the Blaze Trap. If you’ve got it, and a squad who’s willing to run the same, you’re halfway there. Trust me, once you get the hang of it, you’ll be raking in ARC Raiders Coins before you even realise how quick it’s going.

First thing – your loadout. Blaze Trap is non-negotiable. Every teammate should bring it if possible. The Queen’s tough, but she’s not built for standing in a pile of fire. For your main weapon, pick something you’re comfy with for clearing out smaller bots. You’re not relying on gun damage for the big target – that’s all traps. If you’ve got perks that boost gadget damage, cut cooldowns, or let you carry more traps, slap them on. The more firepower you can drop in one go, the better. This isn’t about fancy shooting, it’s about overwhelming her with heat.

When you drop into Blitz, don’t rush straight in. Find where the Queen spawns or where you can kite her. That’s your kill zone. You and your squad want to stack traps right there – not spread out, but literally on top of each other. Think of it like building a bonfire she’s going to walk into. The tighter the stack, the more traps will trigger at once. It’s not pretty, but it’s effective. You’ll want enough to make sure she’s taking damage from multiple sources the second she steps in.

Once your trap field’s set, get one player to bait her in. As soon as she hits the centre, you’ll see her health drop like a stone. The initial burst plus the overlapping burn damage just tears her apart. A fight that usually drags on for minutes will be over in seconds. And the XP? Huge. It’s one of the quickest ways to level up right now. You can run it over and over – set traps, lure, melt, collect rewards. Keep it tight with your squad and you’ll be climbing faster than you thought possible. If you’re looking to speed up your progress, farming the Queen like this can be just as valuable as grabbing Raider Tokens for sale.
