This downtime is expected to last up to 12 hours. Continent Rotation and Empire Strength Territory now matters at all times, as each empire gains strength when key facilities are captured, and when continent events are won. When a faction reaches 100 Empire Strength or more, a Meltdown alert fires off (provided no other events are currently active,) and the victorious faction will lock the continent. Gaining/losing Empire Strength is as follows:
  • Maintaining a link to an enemy Warpgate is worth 50 strength, (both is 100 strength.)
  • Maintaining ownership of the center base is worth 15 strength (or 30 on Esamir).

  • Each continent-event win is worth 10 strength, and is the only permanent form of Empire Strength.
Prior to this change, continents were standardized at 3 continent events (like Aerial Anomalies, Maximum Pressure, Gaining Ground,) before requiring 41% territory control fr... Read more

Back in 2014, the Holiday directive (the first time it was introduced, as Directives were implemented in summer-2014) Holiday Hats were rewards for completing the Tier 3 directive.

These free hats offered no bonus experience.

If you bought a holiday hat from the Depot, it upgraded your default holiday hat (and Auraxium holiday hat) if you owned one, or gave you the new hat if you didn't, and would then give you bonus experience any time you wore it during the holiday event thereafter.
