The rewards just aren't lucrative enough, so if you are the type to only have a few hours every week to play the game, you should skip the Expedition. If you can play upwards of 20-30 hours a week, which is still a lot, you still want to avoid the Expedition unless you are a completionist. The Expedition will only be worth it for those who want to accept the challenge and enjoy the progress and resetting again.","jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/primagames.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/ARC-Raiders-Steam-Promo-Shot-5.jpg?fit=1200%2C675","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/primagames.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/358523","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/primagames.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/primagames.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/primagames.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/139"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/primagames.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=358523"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/primagames.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/358523\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":358650,"href":"https:\/\/primagames.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/358523\/revisions\/358650"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/primagames.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/355897"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/primagames.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=358523"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/primagames.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=358523"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/primagames.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=358523"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/primagames.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=358523"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/primagames.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=358523"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/primagames.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=358523"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
