While it isn’t exactly the PvE mode that some players hoped for, Arc Raiders’ Shared Watch event encourages teamwork and taking out Arc together. After all, they are the real enemy. The mode offers additional XP and goodies for taking out Arcs. Most players are already adept at it by now, but it seems there’s a way to rake in the XP without much effort.
According to PC Gamer‘s Sean Martin, the secret to leveraging this mode is the right weapon and the right map. In this case, they are the Seeker Grenade and the Bird City map condition. Not only will this combo see you blitzing through the Shared Watch event in a matter of hours, but it also looks like a lot of fun.

Martin says Seeker Grenades work perfectly, because they tend to take out smaller flying Arc in one hit most of the time. Not only that, but they are easy to craft, requiring just two Arc Allow and one piece of Crude Explosives. You can craft Crude Explosives yourself in the refiner, or get some from Celeste in exchange for seeds. Of course, this is only possible if you have the blueprint for the Seeker Grenade.
Speaking of seeds, you know where you can get a lot of them? In the chimneys while the Bird City condition is active. Don’t you love it when things come full circle? Flying Arc will be prevalent when the condition is active, making it perfect for hunting with a Seeker Grenade and getting all that sweet XP.

“Toss a core to your raider, oh valley of plenty!”
As for how to go about it, he suggested taking a few pot shots at a Snitch and letting it sound the alarm. This should attract a handful of Wasps and Hornets to your location, which can then be dispatched with the Seeker Grenades. You might need to take a few more shots at them if the grenade doesn’t connect properly, so make sure you keep an eye on them and don’t stray out of cover.
