Winter has arrived in the Rust Belt, and it’s not just the frostbite you have to worry about. Embark Studios just dropped the Week 10 Trials, and this rotation is leaning heavily into the seasonal Cold Snap event.
The standout challenge? You’re being asked to initiate a "gentle" snowball fight with one of the deadliest drones in the game. Here is everything you need to know to survive the frost and claim your Epic rewards.
The Week 10 Trial Checklist
To hit that 3-star Epic reward tier, you’ll need to rack up points across these five objectives:
Throw snowballs at Rocketeers: The "curveball" of the week.
Deal damage to Shredders: Pro tip: Head to Stella Montis; they are everywhere in the indoor corridors.
Deal damage to flying ARC enemies: Wasps and Hornets count!
Open ARC Probes: These are the hackable terminals that call in reinforcements—be ready for a fight.
Destroy Fireballs: These rolling flamethrower bots are usually found lurking in bunkers or the Buried City Metro.
The Snowball Strategy: Don't Mess This Up!
The Rocketeer is a heavily armored beast that usually requires piercing rounds, but this week, you have to hit it with a snowball first.
How to get Snowballs: You must select a map with the Cold Snap condition active (look for the snowflake icon). Once Topside, look for small, white interactive piles of snow on the ground. Hold 'E' (or your interact button) to add them to your quick-slot.
The Synergy: Snowballs deal zero damage, but they act as a distraction. The Trial is designed for you to throw a snowball to "stun" or distract the Rocketeer, then immediately follow up with high-damage attacks to progress the "flying ARC damage" challenge.
Survival Tip: Don't get caught in a "Whiteout" blizzard while trying to find snow. If your screen starts fogging, you're getting frostbite. Get indoors or roll through a fire (like a Blaze grenade) to reset your temperature.
Where to Hunt: Map Recommendations
Stella Montis: This is your go-to for Shredder and Fireball kills. Just be careful in the "Sandbox" area—it's a hot zone for both ARCs and rival Raiders.
Buried City (Cold Snap): Highly recommended for the ARC Probes challenge. The tight urban layout makes it easier to find shelter from the cold while moving between objectives.
Trials Rewards: What’s at Stake?
Remember, your performance this week affects your seasonal rank. If you're pushing for Cantina Legend, you can't afford to skip these.

Final Thoughts
While some Raiders find the weekly Trials a bit repetitive, the addition of the snowball mechanic adds a fun, albeit risky, layer to the scavenging loop. With the season drawing to a close, these Epic rewards are the best way to beef up your loadout before the next major content drop.
