ARC Raiders Long Shot: hit beyond 250 meters

ARC Raiders Long Shot needs a hit beyond 250 meters, not a kill. Use a distance ping, choose a clear target and land damage from over the threshold.

ARC Raiders Long Shot requires landing a hit from more than 250 meters away. Verified basic method: independent guides agree on checking target distance and connecting damage; a kill is not required.

A deliberate attempt

Find an exposed ARC you can see from a stable position. Use the game's distance information to check that it is beyond the threshold. Hizzle suggests leaving some distance margin instead of relying on a rounded display reading exactly 250.

Use a weapon you can aim at that range and land a damaging shot. The published methods include larger ARC as convenient visible targets. There is no particular gun or headshot stated in the award requirement.

A fired bullet is not proof of a hit, and a target moving toward you may cross the threshold before the damage connects. Recheck the situation rather than firing indefinitely at a now-nearby enemy.

Published guides warn that distant ARC can react to being attacked. Keep an exit or cover plan even if you do not intend to finish the fight.

UNSURE: exact distance rounding, every projectile's behavior and platform-specific trigger timing. Online play is required; no fixed shot count, guaranteed spawn or completion time is promised. We checked methods and current notes without playing the game.
