Other 4.6 events
- Windtrace: Seekers and Strategy: In this new iteration of Wondtrace, upon being captured for the first time, you'll be sent to a "surveillance zone" where you can wait out a 20-second timer or be freed by a teammate. But that’s not all! Rebels must now repair four signalling devices scattered across the map to secure victory, raising the stakes.
- Specially-Shaped Saurian Search: Utilise a selection of active and long-term negotiation strategies to gain an edge in battle in this combat event. Deactivating these strategies increases the difficult of the challenge, allowing you to test your combat prowess. Tailor your strategies to your strengths and dominate the battlefield!
- Vibro-Crystal Applications: In this combat event, two teams are required for each battle. Before each battle, you'll need to strategically plan "Vibro-Crystal Harmonic plans" for each team. This involves pairing Transmitter Crystals (trigger conditions) with Receiver Crystals (resulting buffs) to create custom strategies. Every triggered "Harmonic event" earns you a Harmonic Point.
On top of that, there will also be an Overflowing Mastery event rerun that players can look forward to!
