How to hit a Rocketeer with a snowball in ARC Raiders and get three stars

The Rocketeer is one of the hardest enemies to take down in ARC Raiders, and hitting it with snowballs is not a fun activity.

Of course, this activity is something you can avoid if you’re not interested in completing the trials. However, you’ll need to repeatedly hit the Rocketeer with snowballs to get three stars.

While there’s no shortcut or cheat code to achieve the task, certain tricks will help you complete the dangerous task.

Best ways to hit a Rocketeer with a snowball in ARC Raiders

The simplest way to complete the task is to find snowballs and use them multiple times to hit a Rocketeer (can be done across multiple raids). To find snowballs, you’ll have to play on a map with the Cold Snap modifier active on it.

Your next task is to find a Rocketeer. While the snowball doesn’t do any damage, the Rocketeer is still going to target you with its rockets. Moreover, snowballs have an extremely limited range, which means that you’ll need to get close.

A sweet location to do so is the Testing Annex building. Go inside and reach the top floor. You’ll find a window with openings on two sides (partial openings). This spot very commonly spawns a Rocketeer. Your task is to use one of the corners and shoot at the Rocketeer.

Go to a cover and wait for the Rocketeer to arrive. Hit it with a snowball, and then go to the other corner. Use the ledge to aim and fire at the Rocketeer (from the other side of the corner). Head inside and wait for the Rocketeer to reappear on this corner. Hit it with snowballs and repeat the process until you have all three stars.

Another funny way to do the task is to jump from a high building on top of a Rocketeer (or use a Snap Hook). Start peppering it with snowballs repeatedly, but be careful not to fall. Eventually, the Rocketeer might still fly away, resulting in you falling and dying. However, you don’t have to extract successfully to make your score qualify for the trial task.

There are four other tasks, aside from hitting a Rocketeer with snowballs. We have a detailed guide to help you go through the ropes and get three stars for maximum rewards.
