New bonus influence integrations arrive this week adding bonus influence to sieges and buried treasure. Siege bonus influence works simply, awarding the affiliated faction with bonus influence for completing waves 2 and 3. Rival factions can also participate, earning bonus influence for destroying the siege fort without destroying the siege beacon.
The new side activity adds a new role for the spyglass adding over 300 treasure caches across the archipelago. Each cache contains parcels of either gold, aetherium, oil, or synthest along with new parcels that provide 5 gold and 25 bonus influence when extracted. Buried treasure appears as small mounds of dirt and can be opened like a normal cache of cargo.
Join us on Discord for public playtests Friday at 12pm ET, Saturday at 3pm ET, and Monday at 7pm ET.

Minor Features
- Added bonus influence rewards for completing siege waves. Wave 2 and 3 will reward 100 and 300 bonus influence to the team that starts the sieges.
