Affix Generation Rules
- New affixes will be generated from the range of affixes available for the current Mod, with the specific values of the affixes being randomly generated.
- During Tuning, candidate affixes will be generated based on the positive or negative type of the selected original affix, and will match the type of the original affix.
Consumption Rules
- Each tuning consumes Credits, 20 General Mod Base Components, and 1 Exclusive Function Component.
- For the same mod, the Credits required increase with each tuning, while the consumption of General Mod Base Components and Exclusive Function Components remains fixed.
- Starting from the 11th tuning of the same mod, each tuning additionally consumes Corite. Once the tuning count reaches 30, the consumption for subsequent tunings will be fixed at the level of the 30th tuning and will not increase further.

Attention Pilots:

Synchro Nexus
Synchro Nexus is a new virtual combat environment developed by the S.H.A.D.O.W. maintenance team, iterated from the Spectral Nexus. In this environment, enemy deployment patterns and compositions are more diverse; the mode places greater emphasis on coordinated multi-Striker squad operations.
Access
Pilots can navigate to the Operation STORM — Synchro Nexus tab to participate in the challenge. Synchro Nexus currently supports solo or three-player squad challenges (team recruitment can be initiated in the lobby).
How It Works
Basic Rules
Pilots can participate in Synchro Nexus battles solo or recruit a three-player squad (duplicate Strikers cannot be selected in multiplayer mode). Fight through consecutive waves of enemy Strikers to challenge higher combat levels and earn corresponding completion rewards.
Each operation is time-limited. Successfully neutralizing targets during a match earns Virtual Tokens, which can be exchanged at shop Supply Crates on the map for performance enhancements or supplies after each level.
Battle Prep
Pilots may use Modular Weapons, Gliders, and Mods during matches without consumption. Striker Calibration attributes are also active. Boosts, ammo, and other items obtained during the match are only valid for this challenge and will not carry over.
Usable Airdrops: Weapon Airdrop, Ammo Airdrop, Glider, Repair Beacon, Decoy Beacon, Recon Beacon.
Restricted Airdrops: Cargo Rocket Beacon, Restricted Zone Beacon, Extraction Beacon.
Upgrade Selection
Pilots earn Virtual Tokens by neutralizing enemies. After completing this level, pilots may proceed to the supply crates in the area and use Virtual Tokens at shop supply crates to purchase upgrades, ammo, items, weapon durability repairs, teammate recalls, and more. Performance enhancement effects and items obtained during the match are only valid for this challenge.
In both Solo and Co-op Mode, Credits cannot be exchanged for Virtual Tokens. In Co-op Mode, Virtual Tokens can only be obtained by defeating enemy units; in Solo, in addition to defeating enemy units, a set amount of Virtual Tokens is granted at each level.
In Co-op Mode, after all enemies are defeated on every 5th level, 3 friendly Upgrades (shared among all three players; members vote to select one, and in the event of a tie, one is chosen at random) and 3 enemy buffs (also selected by vote) will automatically refresh. The selected friendly buffs affect all team members. This upgrade is selected by team vote and cannot be refreshed.
In Solo, 3 enemy buffs will refresh every five levels; friendly buffs will not appear.
Enemy buffs of different difficulties grant Score bonuses at varying multipliers; the higher the difficulty, the greater the Score multiplier. Score is the criterion for the Leaderboard; the higher the Score, the higher the ranking.
Biweekly Challenge Upgrades
To provide Pilots with a more diverse gameplay experience, a new challenge will be issued every two weeks following the Season 5 update. Please allocate your combat resources accordingly.
Phase 1 Impact Protocol
Melee Boost: Ally Striker Melee Damage +30%
Impact Chip: Starts with the Sword Shockwave Chip
Damage Suppression: Enemy Damage -20%
Energy Resistance: Enemy Energy Resistance +15%
Mobility Boost: Enemy Movement Speed +50%
Biweekly Challenge Upgrades only take effect in Synchro Nexus Solo, Co-op mode, and Spectral Nexus mode.
Squad Deaths & Respawns
In Co-op Mode, squad members enter spectate mode after being neutralized and can be recalled by teammates during the resupply phase.
Random Missions
In Synchro Nexus Solo and Co-op, in addition to defeating all enemies in each wave, certain levels feature additional challenges.
Primary and additional missions are active simultaneously; failing the latter will not affect level completion.
Completing missions earns Score rewards.
Settlement
When all Pilots are neutralized, or when the team votes to end the challenge, the current challenge will conclude and be settled.
After completing Level 40, you may choose to conclude the challenge and proceed to settlement, or enter Endless Mode with unanimous team consent (neutralized members must also vote; disconnected members default to accept), and continue pushing toward higher levels.
Rewards
Upon challenge completion, rewards will be distributed based on the highest level reached in the current run and your performance. Rewards include Supply Crate ·S5, Mission Tokens, Mod Boxes, Corite Ore, Modular Weapons, Glider parts, and more.
The leaderboard for Synchro Nexus is available exclusively in Solo and is settled every two weeks. The ranking criterion is Pilot Score.
Score Calculation Rules: base score for eliminating enemies × score multiplier from enemy buff modifiers × floor multiplier upon settlement (the higher the floor, the greater the score multiplier).
Availability: Permanently available after the Season 5 update.
Operation Daybreak
After the Season 5 update, "Operation Daybreak" will commence. Complete gameplay matches, or reach the target score in Spectral Nexus or Synchro Nexus, to receive rewards.
Event Period: From the start of Season 5 until the August 18 maintenance begins.
Mission Attribute: One-time mission; will not refresh during the event.
Mission Details:
Participate in any gameplay match: 2/4/6 times to receive: Mission Token ×3,000 / Supply Crate · S5 ×10 / Title · Hope
Reach 6,000/12,000/30,000 points in Synchro Nexus to receive: Credit ×30,000 / Modular Weapon Upgrade Module V ×6 / Mod Box · Perfect ×3
New Upgrades
New Upgrades: New modifiers will be added after the Season 5 update and will only take effect in Synchro Nexus Solo and Co-op.
In Synchro Nexus, in addition to new Upgrades, the bonus values of certain existing modifiers will be reduced in this mode (e.g., Crit, Range, and Evade bonuses). Therefore, compared to Spectral Nexus, Synchro Nexus is more challenging, while mission rewards are also more abundant.
Energy Chip: Increases Striker Max Energy.
Mobility Chip: Increases Striker movement speed.
Resource Boost Chip: Increases Virtual Token gain; does not take effect while neutralized.
Trade Protocol Chip: Reduces chip prices.
Supply Search Chip: Increases the number of shop free refreshes.
Solidify Chip: Increases Max HP and reduces movement speed.
Heavy Fire Chip: Increases Striker base damage and increases reload and charge time.
Diversion Chip: Increases Max Fluid Armor and Fluid Armor Regeneration, while reducing Max Energy.
Focus Chip: Increases the Striker's Critical Rate, and reduces the effective range of area attacks.
BREAK Override
A hallmark technology that defines third-generation BREAK Strikers, capable of unlocking a Striker's combat potential within a short time; it drastically enhances the Striker's mobility and survivability for a short duration while simultaneously boosting weapon performance.
After the Season 5 update, except for Ace Arena Ranked Mode, Operation VERGE Ranked Mode, Basic Tutorials, and Advanced Training, all other modes will feature the BREAK Override system. The Striker's BREAK Override Energy Gauge will increase gradually over time. Additionally, neutralizing opponents, assisting, dealing damage, repairing, and taking damage will all increase BREAK Override energy.
In Operation VERGE, upon reaching 25%, 50%, and 75% of the victory point score, all Strikers on the team will receive additional BREAK Override energy, for a total of three times.
Additionally, in Ace Arena and Operation VERGE, when the team is at a disadvantage in victory points, the overall charging speed of BREAK Override increases (including victory point charging).

8+ Merit: penalty reduced by 10 points.
6–7.9 Merit: penalty reduced by 5 points.
Striker Stats
Stat display optimization
After this update, maximum stat values will be clearly displayed in the Striker Stats List. This cap rule reflects existing stat limits, and actual effects remain unchanged.
When a Striker's stats exceed the limit through mods or performance boosts, any excess boost will have no effect. The specific stats are as follows:
Structure
Blast DEF can be increased up to 70%.
Ballistic DEF can be increased up to 70%.
Physical DEF can be increased up to 70%.
Energy DEF can be increased up to 70%.

Energy Depletion Cooldown: min 0.5s

During the extension, all current season content — modes, missions, leaderboards, and reward tracks — will remain active. Matrix Contract will also be extended accordingly.
Compensation details will be announced separately. Thank you for your patience, Pilots.
System Adjustments and Fixes
System Adjustments
Optimized the visual effect of the Nebula Radiance Frame: the effect no longer obstructs the Striker readiness score on the Operation STORM sortie page.
Optimized the flow of the Basic Tutorial for FREYR so that the tutorial content matches the current Complex Shield mechanics.
Optimized the refresh button's display effect in the Spectral Nexus' Upgrade interface.
In Spectral Nexus, the Upgrade page will now refresh at most one Emergency Repair Chip to avoid duplicate repair options.
Once scheduled maintenance begins, any ongoing Spectral Nexus run will force-settle at the next scene transition (e.g., moving from Level 9 to Level 10). Please plan your sessions accordingly. Thank you for your understanding.
Bug Fixes
Fixed an issue where LUMINAE using Aux 2 Support Jetwing and FREYR using Aux 3 Phantom Jetwing could not remove Immobilization from the Modular Weapon Pulse Claw.

Modular Weapon Protection & Return
To improve the Modular Weapon experience, the Mashmak Modular Weapon Protection & Return system goes live after this update. Here's how it works:
Protection Trigger Conditions
Any enhanced Modular Weapon (+1 or higher) will trigger Protection when your Striker is neutralized. Instead of being destroyed or dropped as loot, the weapon loses 1 Upgrade Level, and its current Upgrade XP is wiped — but you keep the weapon.
Weapons stored in Secure Cargo Bay are completely unaffected — no downgrade, no XP loss.
How It Works in Different Scenarios
Recalled by a teammate: The downgraded weapon returns to the holder's Cargo Space. You can keep using it when you rejoin the fight.
Unable to be recalled/eliminated: The downgraded weapon is returned to its original owner.
Weapon picked up by a teammate: The same rules apply to whoever's holding it. If the weapon isn't destroyed, it gets mailed back to the original owner after the teammate's match ends.
Weapon Airdrop destroyed with no one looting it: Any weapons inside at +1 or above are returned via mail after the match, with the standard downgrade applied.
Manually dropped: Returned to the original owner at match settlement with the downgrade applied. When a +1 weapon drops to +0, it retains 1 point of Upgrade XP.
Additional Rules
Multiple deaths in a single match stack the downgrade — each qualifying death knocks the weapon down another level until it hits +0 and gets destroyed.
Weapons at +0 or unenhanced follow the old rules: equipped weapons vanish on death, Cargo Space weapons drop as lootable salvage.
Modular Weapon Airdrop can now only be picked up by you and your squadmates. Enemies can no longer loot your airdrop.

Attention Pilots:
Mecha BREAK will undergo scheduled maintenance starting June 2 at 12:00 (UTC+8). Login and gameplay will be unavailable during this period. Estimated downtime: 6 hours (subject to change—check official announcements for updates). Upon completion, all Pilots who log in within 14 days of maintenance will receive a routine maintenance package via mail (1,000 Mission Tokens, not counted toward seasonal accumulation).
To further improve the combat experience, we've optimized and fixed issues related to the General Store, Modular Weapons, Spectral Nexus, combat performance, and certain UI displays. Following the update, all Pilots will receive Supply Crate · Rhythm ×5 via mail.
Below are the main changes in this update:
System Optimization & Bug Fixes
Operation STORM
Fixed an issue where Mission Tokens were sometimes not properly awarded at Spectral Nexus end-of-run. After the update, Mission Tokens will drop normally at settlement, including Custom Striker and Matrix Contract bonuses.
Temporary bonus Corite Ore · Rhythm drops will be removed. Base Corite Ore · Rhythm drops are unaffected and will continue to drop based on the final floor cleared.
After the update, we will issue via mail two separate Mission Token compensations for Matrix Contract and Custom Striker bonuses that were not properly applied during Spectral Nexus runs.
Compensation Eligibility:
Pilots who held an active Matrix Contract and/or used a Custom Striker in Spectral Nexus with a valid settlement between the Season 4 launch and the June 2 update.
Compensation Rules:
Compensation is calculated based on total Mission Tokens earned through Spectral Nexus settlements between Season 4 launch and the June 2 update:
Matrix Contract compensation: 100% of total settled Mission Tokens.
Custom Striker compensation: 50% of total settled Mission Tokens.
Increased overall settlement rewards for Spectral Nexus Level 30–40.
Fixed an issue in Spectral Nexus where the Missile Support Chip Upgrade would damage your own Glider.
Fixed an issue where loading into boss levels could occasionally freeze in Spectral Nexus.
Fixed an issue in Spectral Nexus where the Gliders in boss levels could spawn in incorrect locations or disappear unexpectedly. After the update, boss level Glders will spawn directly on the ground.
Fixed an issue in Spectral Nexus where the end-of-run background screen displayed incorrectly.
Fixed an issue where the F3 Upgrade Details page in Spectral Nexus sometimes failed to display special buffs the Pilot had acquired.
Fixed an issue where Glider paint colors could display incorrectly in Spectral Nexus.
Store
Added Modular Weapon Upgrade Module II to General Store → Supply → Materials.
Fixed incorrect pricing on certain General Store items.
Items that were erroneously delisted during the season update will return to shelves after this patch.
Fixed an issue in the General Store where Supply Crate · Rhythm weekly refresh rules were not functioning correctly. Normal purchases will resume after this update.
Fixed an issue in the General Store where Office Access Card and Break Room Access Card could not be purchased under certain conditions.
Fixed an issue where the purchase confirmation screen for Pilot Cosmetic: Eyeliner displayed an incorrect price.
Improved certain text descriptions on the Matrix Contract interface.
Optimized purchase interaction logic in the General Store to reduce accidental purchases: removed the Space key shortcut for Corite purchases on PC; on controller, the default selection now defaults to the Mission Token purchase button, and the quick-buy shortcut has been removed.
Adjusted tab order for General Store and Corite Purchase pages.
Marketplace
Fixed an issue where PANTHER's seasonal weapon skin, Complex Shield · Rhythm, could not be listed on the Marketplace.
Modular Weapon Upgrades
Optimized Modular Weapon Upgrade interface logic, adding overflow protection and warnings when XP would be wasted.
Fixed an issue where Defense Field displayed incorrect Force Field Regen values after upgrading.
Fixed incorrect description text on Glider Packs.
Other
Adjusted sell rules for Pattern · Rhythm and Pattern · Trendsetter. After the update, these high-value patterns can still be discarded but can no longer be sold for Credits, preventing accidental loss.
Fixed an issue where Striker Design: ALPHARD MK-I Accent colors could not be modified in certain cases.
Fixed an issue where equipping the ALPHARD MK-I design without using its Pilot caused abnormal execution animations.
Fixed an issue where the ammo count displayed incorrectly when retrieving bullets from an Airdrop Beacon under certain conditions.

Fixed abnormal matchmaking prompt text for Ace Arena duo queue.
Optimized loading screen visuals at 16:9 resolution.

For eligible Pilots:
If you did not log in between the Season 4 update and June 2, 12:00 (UTC+8), your Insignia will be awarded normally after this patch.
If you did log in during that period, your Insignia will be delivered via mail after this patch.

Greetings Pilots,
Season 4 maintenance is complete. Please update to the latest version via the launcher to log in. Season rewards have been sent to your mailbox—don't forget to claim them.
[Known Issues]
Spectral Nexus Settlement Bug
During maintenance testing, we identified an intermittent bug in Specral Nexus (PvE) where players may fail to receive [Mission Tokens] at end-of-match settlement.
Temporary Workaround:
[Mission Tokens] have been temporarily replaced by [Corite Ore · Rhythm] drops at settlement.
The total [Mission Token] value redeemable from [Corite Ore · Rhythm] is slightly higher than the standard level-based payout.
Fix & Compensation Plan:
The root cause has been identified and will be fixed on June 2.
Because [Corite Ore · Rhythm] isn't affected by Matrix Contract (Battle Pass) or Custom Striker bonuses, we'll retroactively calculate each affected player's expected bonus and issue the difference in [Mission Tokens]. All affected players also receive [Modular Weapon Update Module IV] ×5.
General Store Item Bugs
The following are temporarily unavailable due to an error:
Solo Extraction Beacon
Squad Extraction Beacon
Star Vocalist · Bravehearts
Star Vocalist · High Realm
Star Vocalist · Improviser
Fix & Compensation Plan:
These items will be fixed and re-listed on June 2. Once resolved, all Pilots will receive [Supply Crate · Rhythm] ×5.
Newly Identified Issue
We have also noticed an issue where the Season Weapon [PANTHER Complex Shield · Rhythm] cannot be properly listed on the Marketplace.
Fix Plan: This issue will also be fixed on June 2.
We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience. We take full responsibility and are working to resolve these issues and improve future updates as quickly as possible.

Spectral Nexus – Beta

The Spectral Nexus is a virtual combat training system built by S.H.A.D.O.W. using live combat data. The system features multiple enemy types, incorporating dynamic Striker enhancement on top of prototype BREAK Strikers to push Pilots' overall skill to the next level.

How It Works:
- Fight through consecutive waves of enemy Strikers in a virtual arena. Push for higher levels and earn scaling rewards. Each run is time-limited—neutralizing targets earns you an in-run currency called Virtual Tokens.
- After each level, choose one Upgrade to equip, or spend Virtual Tokens on supplies and upgrade modules to power up for the next wave.
- You can exchange Credits for Virtual Tokens after each level.
- Modular Weapons, Gliders, and Airdrop devices can be used freely during runs without being consumed.
- Usable Airdrops: Weapon Airdrop, Ammo Airdrop, Glider, Repair Beacon, Decoy Beacon, Recon Beacon.
- Restricted Airdrops: Cargo Rocket, Lockdown Zone Beacon, Extraction Beacon.
- Enemies do not drop bonus loot during the run. Rewards are calculated based on the highest level reached.
- The run ends immediately if your Striker is neutralized, the timer runs out, or you manually exit.
- A new Spectral Nexus leaderboard (Top 100) is now available. Rankings are based on highest level reached; ties are broken by fastest clear time. Resets every two weeks on Monday at 04:00 (UTC+8).
Rewards: Based on level cleared—includes Supply Crates, Mission Tokens, Mod Boxes, Corite Ore, Modular Weapons, Glider parts, and more.
Availability: Permanently available after Season 4 launches.
Access: Via Operation STORM → Spectral Nexus tab.

System Adjustments & Upgrades

Matrix Contract Revamp

This season, we've done a full overhaul of the Matrix Contract's reward structure and progression pacing. The new contract follows a "51 + 9" tier layout, with rewards more focused on practical progression and seasonal combat needs. Paid track value has been significantly increased, and the overall progression curve is much clearer.

Upon signing the [Matrix Contract], you'll immediately receive 400 Corite, 15,000 Mission Tokens, and 50,000 Credits. The remaining 800 Corite unlocks gradually through later tiers.

Rewards:

Contract holders receive roughly 3× the free track rewards. Building on previous seasons, this season adds 1,200 Corite, Modular Weapon Upgrade Materials (Tier I–IV), a cumulative total of 235 Supply Crates · Rhythm, plus a season-exclusive Frame and Escort Drone.

Contract Perks
- End-of-match rewards boosted to 200% in all combat modes.
- Combat Mission and Storm Mission completion rewards boosted to 200%.
- Exclusive title "Contractor" active for the duration of the contract.
- Unlocks 2 extra Secure Cargo Bay slots in Mashmak.
Tier Breakdown
Tiers 1–51: Contract holders earn a total of 1,200 Corite, the season-exclusive frame, and escort drone across this entire stretch. Within that, Tiers 1–11 require only 3,000 Mission Tokens per tier and offer quick access to growth materials and combat resources. Tiers 11–51 are the standard reward track at 4,000 Mission Tokens per tier.

Matchmaking Changes

Operation VERGE: Solo queue players will now only match against other solos. Duos and trios can match into each other's games. The six-stack queue has been removed.

Ace Arena: Solos match exclusively with solos. Trios match exclusively against trios. Duos are no longer eligible for Ace Arena matchmaking.

Casual Modes: No squad size restrictions.

Modular Weapon Upgrade

A new weapon upgrade system has been added. In the [Inventory] tab, Pilots can use same-type Tier I–VI weapons or Modular Weapon Upgrade Modules as fodder, along with a Credit cost, to feed enhancement XP into a target weapon. Enhanced weapons gain stat increases and a corresponding boost to your Combat Readiness score.

Tier I–IV weapons can be enhanced up to Level 10. Tier V weapons cap at Level 15. Tier VI weapons cap at Level 20.

Note: Upgraded Modular Weapons cannot be listed on the Marketplace.

Pilot Customization Shop Changes

All Pilot appearance customization items previously found under Store → Seasonal Cosmetics → Styles have been moved to Striker Bay → Pilot → Pilot Appearance.

Under the Alter Style tab, the Makeup and Hairstyle sections no longer display items randomly — everything is now browsable and unlockable with Corite. New item categories added under Makeup include: Facial Details, Eyebrows, Eyelashes, Eyeshadow, Eyeliner, Iris, and Lip Makeup.
The [Tattoos] tab remains fully intact with all sections: Face, Torso, Left Arm, Right Arm, Waist, Left Leg, and Right Leg.

Season 4 Season-End Rewards — Major Buff + New Ace Arena Rewards

Season 4 season-end rewards for both Tier milestones and leaderboard placements in Operation VERGE have been significantly increased compared to Season 3. Additionally, Ace Arena now has its own Tier and leaderboard rewards for the first time.

Loadout slots expanded — Custom & Proprietary Design tabs now separated

After the update, Custom Design and Proprietary Design will be split into their own tabs. Custom Design slots can now be expanded up to 9 total.

Unlocking Slot 2 and Slot 3 costs 2,000 Mission Tokens each. Every slot after that costs 200 Corite. Already-unlocked slots are unaffected.

The following designs have been moved to the Proprietary Design tab: Custom Striker, Moonwell, Onyxgold, Mapledawn, and 6 mythic Designs (Skyrend, Monarch, Overlord, Rainfall, Sinslayer, Tempest)

Mission Token reset

All existing Mission Tokens will be wiped when Season 4 launches. Plan accordingly and spend them before the update. Going forward after Season 4, Mission Tokens will no longer reset between seasons.

In-Match chat removed

To combat collusion, match-fixing, and toxic behavior, all in-match chat functionality has been removed across all modes.

Mods

A new Perfect-quality mod tier has been added. Perfect mods roll with 2 positive stats and 1 negative stat, following the same randomization rules as existing mods.

Compared to Flawless-quality mods, Perfect mods have significantly higher negative stat values, but their positive stat ranges are wider in both directions — lower floors, higher ceilings — opening up more build potential and a higher power ceiling for min-maxers.

[Mod Box · Perfect] drops from Mashmak in-match loot and Spectral Nexus end-of-match rewards.

[Mod Box · Perfect] can be listed on the Marketplace; opened Perfect-quality mods cannot.

Striker Calibration

A new Striker Calibration system has been added. Note: Calibration boosts do not apply in Operation VERGE or Ace Arena.

After completing matches in Operation VERGE Ranked, Casual, Ace Arena Ranked, Casual, or Operation STORM (including Spectral Nexus), Pilots earn Calibration XP for the Striker they used. Once enough XP is accumulated, you'll progressively unlock that Striker's exclusive upgrade nodes, which buff base stats like HP and Damage.

At launch, each Striker will have 20 upgrade nodes available. Future updates will add more nodes and Striker-specific upgrades targeting ability damage, area of effect, cooldowns, and effect mechanics.

Permanent Events

Daily Login Rewards (adjusted): Logging in for 7 cumulative days now grants: Supply Crate · Rhythm ×1, Mod Box · Rare ×1, Modular Weapon Upgrade Module II ×2, Paint Kit ×1, and 2,000 Credits.

Sortie Missions — "Achieve victory in Operation VERGE," "Achieve MVP in Operation VERGE," and "Conduct Extractions from Mashmak," along with Combat Missions and Storm Missions, will continue to reset after this update.

[Good to See You Again, Pilot], [Weekly Free Trials], [Weekend Clash], and [Link and Claim Your Reward] will operate as normal during Season 4.

[Weekly Free Trials] now includes [FREYR].
