[2022] Save the World | Homebase Status Report 1.24.2022

  Greetings Commanders, In case you missed it, be sure to checkout Lars' update about The Storm that was added to the previous Homebase Status Report.

Also in the v19.10 update, Commanders gained the ability to cancel Goin' Commando and Lefty and Righty activations. Use this new found cancel ability to get out of tricky situations!

Winterfest is melting away, so now it is time to welcome back the Mild Meadows Ventures Season! Some scouting reports are saying that things may be getting a bit feral during this Ventures Season; but we will cross that bridge when it comes.

For now let’s focus on getting this report rolling. Homebase Status Report - Initiate! 
 

Coming January 24 (7 PM ET) - Mild Meadows Returns, Major Oswald Drills you in the Wargames, Wukong descends into the Event Store along with the Dragon’s Fist, and follow Stoneheart Farrah’s teachings in the No Dancing Questline

 

 

The Mild Meadows

Here in the Mild Meadows, Commanders get to enjoy the benefits of the Escalation Modifier. The Escalation Modifier is as simple as it is effective, here is a rundown of how it works; as your Commanders’ elimination streaks climb, your team will receive a small boost to bonus damage (capping out at a 100% increase). In addition, reaching elimination streaks will trigger an Elemental Burst at all Commanders’ locations, dealing damage and unleashing additional effects!

30 Eliminations: Nature Burst - Mother Nature is on your side! This burst damages and stuns surrounding enemies for 3 seconds.

60 Eliminations: Fire Burst - Is it getting hot in here or is that just your elimination streak? This burst will deal damage and apply a blistering debuff which causes damage every second.

90 Eliminations: Dance Party - Make em’ dance! This burst deals damage, refills Commander’s energy, and last but certainly not least, causes the Husks to dance for 7 seconds.

120 Eliminations: Ice Burst - After heating them up with some fire and dancing, it’s time to cool them down! This burst will deal damage and freeze nearby targets for 5 seconds.

150 Eliminations: Energy Burst - And now it’s time to unleash the power! This burst will damage and cause nearby enemies to take increased damage for 10 seconds.

Keep in mind, if you lose your streak your Escalation bonuses will reset. So keep it moving and take out as many Husks as you can as fast as you can!
