继续购物Season 5 Week 3 introduces one of the more confusing challenges in ARC Raiders: Damage ARC using Jump Mine. Many players spend time searching for a “Jump Mine” item, only to discover that it doesn’t officially exist. The community uses this nickname for the Explosive Mine because it springs upward just before exploding.
If you’re aiming to complete the trial efficiently and earn the highest possible score, this guide explains how to obtain the Explosive Mine, why it is called the Jump Mine, and the best farming methods currently available.
The “Jump Mine” mentioned in the trial is simply the Explosive Mine. Before detonating, the mine launches itself vertically, making it appear as though it jumps into the air. This unique animation led players to nickname it the Jump Mine, even though the in-game item retains its official name.
For players looking to optimize their loadouts, collecting high-quality ARC Raiders items can make these combat-focused challenges much easier, especially when preparing large quantities of explosives and defensive equipment.
Before attempting the challenge, you’ll need a steady supply of Explosive Mines.
The most reliable method is purchasing the Legendary Explosive Mine Blueprint from Nomadic Envoy Ermal.
Crafting requires several materials, including:
| Material | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Leaper Pulse Units | Primary crafting component |
| Pop Triggers | Explosive activation component |
| Additional crafting resources | Depending on blueprint requirements |
Once unlocked, you can craft large batches for repeated trial attempts. Players searching for cheap ARC Raiders BluePrints often prioritize the Explosive Mine because of its usefulness across multiple PvE encounters and seasonal objectives.
Explosive Mines also occasionally appear as loot throughout the world.
Common locations include:
· Dam item lockers
· Dam grenade tubes
· Trench Tower
· Spaceport loot containers
While scavenging is less consistent than crafting, it can help build up your inventory without spending additional materials.
The Season 5 Week 3 trial uses a generous scoring system:
· Every 1 point of mine damage equals 5 trial points.
· Only successful extractions count.
· Dying before extraction means losing all earned progress for that run.
Because of this, survival is just as important as maximizing damage output.
This is currently considered the highest-scoring strategy and can easily exceed 21,000 trial points in a successful run.
· 50–60 Explosive Mines
· Barricades
· Photoelectric Cloak
· Reliable primary weapon
1. Travel to Stellamontis.
2. Find a relatively controlled combat area.
3. Place a barricade to protect yourself from blast damage.
4. Fire a shot to attract a Shredder.
5. Place an Explosive Mine directly in its path.
6. Shoot the mine yourself to trigger the upward launch.
7. Let the Shredder move over the blast.
8. Repeat with approximately five mines per Shredder for reliable eliminations.
The manual detonation provides much more consistent positioning than waiting for automatic activation.
Heavy ARC enemies can absorb significant explosive damage, making them excellent targets.
1. Locate a Bombardier.
2. Shoot the rear cylinder weak point.
3. The enemy becomes staggered for roughly ten seconds.
4. Sprint beneath or behind the ARC.
5. Attach or place multiple mines around its body or core.
6. Retreat at least eight meters before detonation.
Stacking several mines together creates an enormous burst of damage while minimizing your own risk.
Players who prefer a lower-risk approach often choose this setup.
· Explosive Mine
· Snitch Scanner
1. Place the Explosive Mine on the ground.
2. Drop the Snitch Scanner directly on top.
3. Wait for flying Wasp units to spawn.
4. Shoot the mine as the enemies gather overhead.
The resulting explosion deals heavy area damage, allowing you to earn excellent scores while avoiding prolonged firefights. Many players report earning close to 29,000 points using this method under favorable conditions.
To maximize efficiency during the challenge:
· Craft mines in bulk before starting the trial.
· Bring defensive tools to avoid unnecessary deaths.
· Focus on grouped enemies whenever possible.
· Prioritize extraction over one final engagement if you’ve already accumulated substantial points.
· Keep enough inventory space for valuable loot collected during the run.
Unlike many combat objectives, this trial only rewards damage if you successfully leave the raid.
Even an excellent run can result in zero progress if you’re eliminated before extraction. Once you’ve earned enough points, it’s often smarter to head directly for an extraction zone rather than continuing to fight.
Although the challenge text refers to a “Jump Mine,” understanding that it actually means the Explosive Mine removes most of the confusion. With a reliable crafting setup, efficient farming route, and one of the high-scoring strategies above, players can complete the objective quickly while earning impressive seasonal progress.
Whether you prefer baiting Shredders, bursting down Bombardiers, or safely eliminating Wasp swarms with the Snitch Scanner trap, each method provides a dependable path toward finishing one of Season 5’s most rewarding Trials.
