[2021] Save the World | Homebase Status Report 9.28.2021

Attention Commanders,

You all have done an admirable job of taking on your fears inside the Hexslyvania Zone! Sadly we aren’t out of the (haunted) woods yet, as there are still many dangers and horrors emerging from this Venture Season. We are even getting reports from one of our Agents that the new Dungeon will soon be open to Commanders brave enough to enter it… But for now, let’s focus on building up our power with the upcoming arrivals into the Event Store.

Before we get this Homebase Status Report rolling, we wanted to highlight a change made to the Boom B.A.S.E Team Perk, just in case you missed it. It seems Lars’ arrival to the battlefield has made some Heroes even outside of Steel Wool feel the music! From now on, all Heroes with the “Band Member” tag will be able to activate the Boom B.A.S.E Team Perk. That rocks, doesn’t it?

Now without any further delay… Homebase Status Report - Initiate! 
 

I SEE JONESEE-BOT ENTERING THE EVENT STORE ON OCTOBER 2 (8 PM ET)

• Standard Perk: Ow. My eye!
  • Increase Headshot damage up to 50% based on the percentage of your missing Health.

The Grave Digger Makes Its Impactful Return on October 9 (8 PM ET)!

Don't let that smiling jack-o-lantern face on it fool you; the Grave Digger is a powerful assault rifle that will treat the husk to nothing but destruction! Grave Digger fires medium ammo, gaining damage and impact at the cost of accuracy and fire rate.
