Taking on the Matriarch or the Queen in Arc Raiders is no easy task. You generally need help, and quite a bit of it to take one down. But in saying that, they weren't designed for a whole map full of players to target them, neither in toughness nor loot, and the devs at Embark Studios are becoming increasingly aware of that fact.
"They're not intended for the full server to go up against and get equally rewarded," Virgil Watkins, design director on Arc Raiders, tells PC Gamer. "It is meant to be, you know, a couple of dedicated squads, maybe working together while also dealing with other players."
