Your loot is the most valuable asset in ARC Raiders. Since you lose most of your equipment when you die, except for the items in safe pockets, surviving is often more important than killing. And when you do everything to stay alive but a stupid cheater gets in your way, it's extremely frustrating.
Fortunately, ARC Raiders developers seem to be keeping an eye on unfair play. They're compensating players who fall victim to these hackers. In the r/ArcRaiders subreddit, several users claim they are having their lost items returned by the developers if the anti-cheat systems detect they got killed by someone using illegal assistance.
