Cataclysm Week 4

Cataclysm “Echoes of Reality” Changes:

 

·           “Crucible of Astrid” Event  - This week we add the next arena to the Cataclysm, which you will want to finish before going to challenge Vara for maximum points (and Crystals). The Crucible of Astrid event, located in the “Trials of Might” District on the Cataclysm map, will have Freelancers working together with a set of 5 Echoes to switch ON and OFF the relic suppression fields. Per usual, teamwork is key and utilizing communication with your squadmates will help optimize your time.

·           Inversions Changes - Here are this week’s Inversion changes:

·           On the Edge: At low armor, damage dealt increases.

·           Soldier’s Reward: Killing an enemy restores a small amount of shields.

 

 

 

Seasonal Store Refresh:

 

·           War Chest: Weapon - Ever since these first showed up on the PTS for the Cataclysm, Freelancers have been asking when they’d be able to get their hands on these news weapons. Well, I am excited to tell you that the time has finally come! Pulse Accelerators,Volt Casters and Blade Slingers (all with three additional MW/LEG variants) are available in these new War Chests. If you want more details on the new weapons, we have additional details in our 1.3.0 Update Notes. As a reminder, the War Chests allow you to trade in Crystals for a Masterwork item (with a chance to roll Legendary). The chests are also the only way to acquire the lvl 66 MW and lvl 80 LEG items.
