How to Complete Ancient Arches

Ancient Arches Tips and Strategies


Collect Glow Pellets First

Pikmin 4 - collecting glow pellets

Immediately after the night starts, collect all the glow pellets nearby to increase your squad size. There are five glow pellet piles near the Lumiknoll and you will have enough time to clear them before the enemies start invading.

Activate the Nearest Tricknolls

Pikmin 4 - ambushing enemies at the bridge

Across the clay bridge northwest is a Tricknoll that can serve as both a drop point for glow pellets and an extra line of defense for your Lumiknoll.

Tricknolls only do these functions once they're activated, which you can do by simply getting close to them until they light up.

Wait for Enemies at the Bridge

Pikmin 4 - activating Tricknolls

In case the Tricknolls fall, you can wait by the bridge for enemies and defeat them as they cross. You can also wait for an opportunity where you can wipe them out as they cross with a single Rush.

Remember that some of them can go around through the east path instead, so check on your radar regularly.
