Key information
Embark Studios is set to introduce a new grappling hook tool in the upcoming Frozen Trail update for Arc Raiders. This item, classified as a green-tier object, is designed to enhance exploration and movement across the game's various maps.
The grappling hook offers significant versatility, allowing players to scale surfaces, rappel, and swing through the air. Unlike the yellow-tier Mosquetón, which functions as a hook-pistol, the new tool is intended to be highly accessible and inexpensive to acquire or craft, making it a potential staple for player inventories.
During testing in the game's practice field, the tool demonstrated no usage limits, enabling players to perform complex maneuvers such as mid-air stops to break falls or swinging between points. It can be attached to various surfaces and even to ARC enemies, providing new tactical options for both traversal and combat scenarios.
The reviewer anticipates that this addition will revolutionize exploration, simplifying mission objectives that require vertical movement, such as climbing antennas. The tool is expected to be particularly useful for PVE modes and future map designs, including the new Pendola Pass area.
