When you jump into ARC Raiders, figuring out where to put your skill points can get messy quick. Three skill trees stare you down—Conditioning, Mobility, and Survival—and it’s tempting to toss points all over the place. A lot of new players do that, but it usually ends with you face down in the dirt. The smarter play? Pick one style and lean into it. That way every point you spend counts. If you want to know exactly how to turn those points into a build that’ll actually keep you alive, check out ARC Raiders BluePrint for some inspiration.
First off, for people who believe speed wins fights, the Loot Runner build is the way forward. This setup is laser-focused on Mobility. Boost your sprint speed, push your slide distance out, and make sure you can run without draining stamina too fast. You’ll also want a couple of perks from Survival that help with loot grab speed and quick interactions. Combat stats? Forget them. This build is about slipping in like a ghost, emptying every chest you see, and vanishing before the enemy can blink.
Then you’ve got the Juggernaut. If you’re the one who’s always picking teammates off the floor, this is your home. The plan here is simple—dump nearly everything into Conditioning. Health, damage resistance, faster shield regen… max it all. You’re the wall that soaks up everything so your squad can take the fight elsewhere. Toss some points into Survival for quicker revives. You won’t be fast, but when the dust settles, odds are you’re still standing and holding the line.
For folks who just can’t stand still, the Endless Traversal setup will feel right. Points are split between Mobility and Conditioning—grab sliding, jumping, and mantling perks from Mobility, and pure stamina upgrades from Conditioning. Bigger stamina bar, faster regen, lower sprint costs. The result? You’re covering huge patches of ground without breaking pace, perfect for dragging enemies into traps or hitting far-off objectives in record time.
And if you’re still figuring out what fits you best, the Balanced Survivor gives you a bit of everything. You take efficient, low-tier grabs from all three trees: extra health and stamina via Conditioning, a small sprint speed bump and improved slides from Mobility, plus faster looting under Survival. It’s not flashy, but it’s dependable. You’ll handle most situations until you lock in your main style later.
