The second - and potentially much bigger - possibility involves expedition rewards themselves.

For months, players have wondered whether extra skill points would eventually become problematic for ARC Raiders Coins game balance. Longtime players continuously stacking permanent bonuses could create unfair advantages over newer Raiders.

Interestingly, Embark has already hinted at this concern publicly.

Back in January, design director Virgil Watkins explained that skill points were never intended to remain the permanent expedition reward forever. According to Watkins, the system was always expected to reach a cap before transitioning to something else.

That cap may be approaching quickly.

Currently, players can earn up to ARCR Items 16 additional skill points through expeditions. Many believe Expedition 4 could be the final season rewarding them before Embark introduces an entirely new incentive structure.

If Skill Points Disappear, What Replaces Them?

That remains the biggest mystery.

Embark has already confirmed that additional cosmetics, XP boosts, and progression rewards are coming, but players are now wondering what future endgame incentives could look like.
