#Events#
PyroGenesis Industries · Prep Ops
· To celebrate the upcoming Season 1, "Pulse of the Indigo Stone," PyroGenesis is expediting a confidential project, with S.H.A.D.O.W. taking on this special mission. Pilots can earn Mission Tokens, Supply Crates · Scorching Fire, and Tier Protection Cards · Scorching Fire (used to prevent Tier Point loss upon defeat) by completing missions and submitting supplies. This event is exclusive for the end of Season 0, and all orders will reset weekly.
· Prep Ops · Corite: Pilots can explore the Corite crystal area in Mashmak to search for high-purity Corite. Collect the required amount within the week (no need to extract successfully or complete in a single run) to earn Mission Tokens and Supply Crate · Scorching Fire.
· Prep Ops · Paint: Submit paint within the week to complete the order and earn Mission Tokens and Supply Crates · Scorching Fire. Higher-quality paint grants more points.
· Prep Ops · Mods: Pilots can spend Mission Tokens to exchange collected mods for random ones of the same rarity.

· Prep Ops · Recon: Pilots have 3 free weekly chances to join the MASHMAK · Covert Operation, a Mashmak mission free from mercenary interference. Use Covert Operations Plans to obtain additional participation attempts.
·As PyroGenesis' secret project advances, your base will undergo some changes.
Mashmak | Covert Operation
· Using intercepted intel, S.H.A.D.O.W. has launched the limited-time Mashmak · Covert Operation, enabling pilots to operate without mercenary interference. The operation offers 3 free chances a week for participation. During this period, pilots can continue participating in missions via using Covert Operation Plans. This event is exclusive for the end of Season 0.
· Mashmak · Covert Operation requires no Combat Readiness and features 3 phased Extraction Points. Pilots can complete extraction and combat missions during the operation to earn Mission Tokens, along with chances to obtain Corite ore, Extraction Beacons, Restricted Zone Keys, and Supply Crates. All types of Locator Beacons can be used, granting Restricted Zone mission rewards.
· Due to limited intel, this special operation is restricted to 3-pilot squads. If a member exhausts their action attempts, the squad can only continue if that member uses a Covert Operation Plan.
· Pilots participating in all difficulty levels of Mashmak (except for Covert Operation) may obtain a Covert Operation Plan. It can be purchased via the Matrix Marketplace.
· The recruitment function now supports the Mashmak Covert Operation, helping pilots find suitable teammates.
