Mini Ops Event

Attention Snipers,

Operation "Pumpkin Slayer" is about to begin! Read on to get the full specs for the Seasonal Mini Ops event, taking place this weekend.

Mini Ops - Flashback and Conquest

The Mini Ops event will last three days (October 20-22) and your primary mission objective will be to gather collectibles in the form of pumpkins. These are valuable resources you can later use in the event shop.

Mini Ops activities consist of:

  • Flashback - you get to revisit (or be spoiled, depending on where you are in your Sniper career) the Underground region where you have to successfully complete the missions in parallel with locating, shooting and collecting pumpkins.

  • Conquest - you challenge other players but cannot win or lose trophies; your goal is to gather pumpkins, but just like in the case of Flashback, you need to win your battles to be able to keep what you collect.
  • Worth mentioning:

    • You can use any weapon in your arsenal to play both Flashback and Conquest.
    • Headshot kills on the enemy Avatar in PVP will double the number of pumpkins.
    • Flashback missions require single player energy, Conquest - PVP energy.

    Event Shop

    Once you have gathered enough pumpkins you can use them to get valuable supplies.

    The event shop runs on tiers that will have to be unlocked by spending pumpkins. Here is a rundown of the tiers and what items will be available:

    Tier 1 (default)

    • Epic Special Ops boosts: Fluke, Synergy, Recovery, Medikit, Headstart etc.

    Tier 2 (spend 300 pumpkins to unlock)

    • Base Defenses: Aegis Barrier, Jammer Turret, Floodlights etc.
    • PVP boosts: Infiltration, EMP Grenade, Sleeping Gas, Godlike etc.

    Tier 3 (spend 900 pumpkins to unlock)

    • Master Pack
    • 5* Ninja Squad Mate
    • Pumpkin Holo Badge.

    Don't neglect to spend your pumpkins. They are set to self-destruct 24h after the event ends.

    Pumpkin Holo Badge

    Though there are plenty of other goodies in the event shop, we hope you will be motivated to compete and claim the Pumpkin Holo Badge.

    This item grants you a 10% damage bonus versus enemies with more trophies than you. The badge will remain in your inventory after the seasonal event ends.

    Briefing complete, Sniper. Return to your regular duties and prepare to slay some pumpkins.
