You Can Farm Arc Raiders' Toughest Robot With Just A Single Blue...

Commit regicide, scrap the Queen for parts, and plunder the Harvester.

Let's face it, Arc Raiders' robots are terrifying. Sure, you can one-tap a Pop, but if one (or even worse, a pack) sneaks up on you, you're toast. Wasps may be similarly low on the food chain, but underestimate them and they'll drop you every time. And don't get me started on Ticks. The point is, you don't mess with Arc machines unless you're prepared.

These all pale in comparison to the Queen, the largest Arc currently in the game, which you can only encounter during the Harvester map event. These towering, spider-like monstrosities guard the Harvester and will rain mortar fire, laser beams, charges, and EMPs down on those brave (or stupid) enough to challenge them.

It turns out you needn't be all that scared of the Queen, though. Why? Because you can burn through their roughly 33,000 health with just a single, blue-quality Blaze Grenade Trap. That's right, you don't need to cram your backpack with valuable Wolfpack grenades, a Hullbreaker, or any of the other best guns. Just a cheap, fairly common grenade that you wouldn't even feel bad about losing will do the trick.

The reason why this is even possible is that Blaze Grenade Traps seem to be bugged and are dealing way, way more damage against all enemies than they should be. Don't shoot the messenger, but this includes against other players, where it'll eviscerate an entire team in a nano-second—I'm sorry if this now encourages the most bloodthirsty among you to start slinging Blaze Traps at everyone they meet.

As mentioned, Blaze Grenade Traps are easy to get your hands on, either by scavenging or crafting them using standard Blaze Grenades and a wire. I don't know about you, but I've got heaps of Blaze Grenades in my stash from looting and completing quests, and now it's time to cash them in.

Content creator Epitomy suggests hurling the grenade so it lodges in the gap between the 'head' and 'body' of the Queen, but I've seen people take them down by simply sticking it to the underside. In other words, I don't really think it matters where you damage them.

Just remember that since Blaze Grenade Traps are…traps, they won't automatically detonate in this situation—you need to manually trigger the explosion by shooting them.
