I became a full-time paramedic for strangers in Arc Raiders, and ended up showered with more rare loot than I could carry

A player in Arc Raiders adopted a pacifist approach by becoming a paramedic, focusing on reviving downed raiders instead of engaging in combat. Initially facing challenges due to players not waiting for help, the player developed a strategy that involved positioning near the center of the map, focusing on smaller maps, investing in mobility skills, and announcing their role to encourage cooperation. This approach led to multiple successful revivals and a more engaging gameplay experience. The player also received appreciation and valuable items from those they helped, although maintaining the supply of defibrillators was costly, amounting to over 50,000 coins per night. The player faced risks from other players while attempting to save others and refined their skills in danger detection and situational awareness. Their efforts fostered connections within the gaming community, including a memorable interaction with a player they revived after a kill.
