New Challenges and Schematics (Mid-Season)
Prestige Challenges
Unlock new Prestige Calling Card Challenges at each level of prestige reached, and select up to five challenges to track, including any from across the game.
Camo Challenges
With four new weapons comes over a dozen new unique Camo challenges to grind through - play to access the new challenges for the Gladiator Melee weapon and multiple unique Camos for the BAL-27 (Assault Rifle), FJX Horus (Submachine Gun), and MORS (Sniper Rifle).
New Schematics
In addition, some highly classified Schematics are located in deviously secretive locations, all available depending on your success during the Rift:
Dead Wire Detonators (Schematic): Are you still shocked at the impressive electrical damage the Dead Wire Ammo Mod inflicts? Then you might want to employ the Dead Wire Detonator, and attach it to all your explosive weaponry, including Lethals and Launchers!
Golden Mask Filter (Schematic): A prized schematic with a shiny hue and an impressive, long-lasting effect — gain a self-regenerating gas mask for the rest of the match. This comes in extremely handy for surviving zombie strongholds and any surprises in the rifts.
Sergeant’s Beret (Schematic): Your outcomes no longer need to be terminal when dealing with Zakhaev’s hired guns; simply don the Sergeant’s Beret to disguise yourself among the Mercs, and summon a trusty Merc Bodyguard who shadows you to the end.
Warlord: Rainmaker (Mid-Season)
Additional caution is advised when operating in the southeastern part of the Urzikstan Exclusion Zone, as Warlord Rainmaker has commandeered and heavily upgraded the defenses of his fortress on Rahaa Island, across the water from Shahin Manor. As his code name suggests, this Warlord is an artillery and demolitions expert, and though his island compound is relatively easy to reach, stepping foot on the island with your limbs still attached may be more of a challenge.
Expect mortar rounds and RPG fire to descend on your squad, with assault maneuvers made even more difficult due to the water surrounding Rainmaker’s lair. Fast transport is recommended, and once you disembark, try to ignore the chaos and focus on the fortress. Rainmaker’s forces are expendable, and he almost enjoys sacrificing his own men to take out intruders. With the fortress breached, slow your progress, as the compound is brimming with tripwires and traps. Stepping on a mine at this point would be unfortunate. Then prepare to change your gameplan once you finally corner Rainmaker; he’s capable of some nasty surprises you won’t be expecting.
