How to destroy Bombardiers in Arc Raiders
As mentioned above, Bombardiers in Arc Raiders are ground-type and walk around different parts of the maps of the game. These are higher up in the hierarchy and pose a tougher challenge due to their threat level. If you are hunting this enemy, your best bet would be to try finding it on the Buried City map or the Spaceport map.
That said, here are some tips and tricks to defeat Bombardiers in Arc Raiders:
- Bombardiers usually do not patrol areas on their own and are accompanied by non-lethal Spotter ARCs. These exist simply to help the bigger one accurately target Raiders and deal damage. If the enemy spawns with the Spotters, the first step should be to get rid of them.
- Once you are in a one-on-one against the Bombardier, you should try to climb a building or reach a rooftop. Gaining a height advantage can be advantageous in this fight. This would allow you to shoot it and throw grenades while remaining behind cover. This is also a great way to break the line of sight with the enemy to avoid incoming damage.
- You should use Showstoppers to stun the Bombardier and use this opportunity to throw high-damage grenades. Since it is a large ARC, it moves slowly and helps you get the most out of the explosives.
- Avoid taking head-on fights with the Bombardier and prioritize getting to a safer position. Starting the fight with explosives can help you deal a lot of early damage, after which you can simply shoot it down to finish the job.

During a fight with Bombardiers in Arc Raiders, you need to keep an eye out for the high-damage mortar rounds that are hurled toward your location. Avoid taking a direct hit from these at all times. Launch your attacks when the enemy has stopped firing, dump grenades and other damage-dealing utilities on it to quickly take it down. Gunfire is also quite effective against this ARC due to its unarmored nature.
It can be challenging to deal with this enemy alone, and so it is best to have a squad during such raids. However, it is not impossible, and you would simply need to stockpile a lot of grenades for this fight. Well-timed explosives and dodges can help you chip away at its health and eventually eliminate it.
