Havoc Update - Completing Auric Maelstrom Update

Hey Everyone,
Thank you to everyone jumping into Grim Protocols. We’ve been reviewing the comments from all the players who are trying out Havoc and we’ve made a tweak on something.

To unlock Havoc, players are required to play a Maelstrom mission. If they play an Auric Maelstrom, they are boosted to Assignment Rank 10.

We’ve been monitoring feedback and we don’t believe this boost was enough. We’ve made a change to the backend where players who complete an Auric Maelstrom are now boosted to Assignment Rank 16. If you’ve already been boosted to Rank 10, you should be able to play another Auric Maelstrom to boost to Rank 16.

We chose Assignment Rank 16 because that is the level Auric Intensity is activated with the Emperor’s Fading Light.

To support the different skill levels that might be able to complete a Havoc-equivalent Maelstrom mission, we don’t want to boost too high. Some players who complete an Auric Maelstrom mission might’ve thought it was easy, while others struggled through it.

We’ll be continuing to monitor players to see if this is an adequate boost in levels or not. We’ll be monitoring the other feedback for Havoc, as well.

P.S. If you are having trouble finding parties for Havoc, make sure to select E in the Party Finder to clear your selected tags. We’ve found some players have tags selected that are mutually exclusive from Havoc and it prevents them from seeing the open parties.
