Missions

Intro

As the name suggests, PvE is an acronym for 'Player versus Environment'. This class of gameplay involves human players (also known as 'Mercenaries' by in-game NPC officiers) battling against AI-controlled ships, turrets, accompanied with some other objectives in-game, such as cargo escorting and (to boost rewards) bonus sub-missions including destroying a specified target or retrieving multiple objects in an environment.

• Missions for ranks 1-17 have multiple dynamic difficulty levels from 1 to infinity. Players initially have access only to the first difficulty level. Subsequent levels will become available as you progress through the previous ones. Enemies in the missions become stronger with each level. Mission level is selected by players on the ship selection screen. Players are also able to get stronger as part of the PvE missions, by buying their own special bonuses that only work in PvE.
• A certain mission can only be selected by a commander of squad of 4 pilots. Single pilots can go to one of 2 current random missions.
• Each mission is conventionally divided into several conditional stages and is passed by a team consisting of 4 pilots.
• If your ally's ship is unfortunately destroyed, you can recover it, assuming he/she hasn't initiated the "Reconstruction" of his/her ship. To respawn him/her manually, you will need to approach the wreck of his ship and interact with it. If you are destroyed, you can also recover your ship, but no more than 5 times [Tip: Premium ships can respawn once for free]. In the worst-case scenario, all players' ships will be destroyed. At this point, the screen will flash red, saying "WARNING: No live players. The mission will end.". After the timer runs out, the mission will result in a failure.
• All pilots completing PvE missions get a special valuable resource “Insignia”.
  • The earned Insignia can be used to enhance your defences and power in PvE missions.
  • Enhancing is available from 4 clearance level.
