Editor’s Note: Ventures are content updates within Issues that drive the story of HAWKED forward with new Quests, loot, and more. Issues will usually consist of four Ventures.
New Quests: Issue #1 Storyline Continues
Thanks to all your shooting and looting, the Glyphstone ritual was a success, and four Familiars emerged from within. They’ve taken a liking to a few faces aboard the Riftwake and chosen their Champions, but their release has given few answers and only posed more questions.
Good thing GRAIL’s got a group of treasure hunters on board, eh? Since you’ve got quite a bit of experience in solving mysteries… think you can crack their cryptic messages?
Loot New Artifacts
A Renegade’s work is never done! GRAIL recently discovered three new Artifacts waiting to be extracted, upgraded, and added to your Loadout along with all-new abilities.
- Attunement Fife: The most nimble of the lost civilization served as messengers across the island. We believe these runners used this Artifact to carry their feet like the wind and hold tight to the message they carried in their minds.[list]
- Location: Treasury[/*]
- Location: Treasury[/*]
- Location: Venture 3 Questline[/*]
Happy hunting!
Tackle New Encounters
There have been reports of two new Encounter challenges on X-Isle! Complete them to unlock Glyphs to the Treasury.
- Wilting Blossoms: A curious tree. Shoot the blue crystal, then shoot the blossoms that descend from the treetop. Act quickly – shoot the blossoms before they rot![/*]
- Door of Order: After shooting the crystal above the door, a pattern will appear on the door itself. Simply shoot the pattern to reveal the Glyph within.[/*]
Hone Your Hunting with Weapon Upgrades
You’ve got the perfect weapon but despite cracking crate after crate, no luck with the rarity. We have the solution: Extraction Points are now fitted with Upgrade Stations to enhance your weapons in exchange for CRED. You’ll never have to part with your favorite firearms again!
Renegade Classes
Do you put your partners first? Dabble more on the Gear side? Or are you more of the shoot first, loot later type?
GRAIL’s been studying the latest treasure-hunting strategies and launched a Class system to clue you up with tips and tricks based on your Loadout and how it impacts your gameplay. Whether you’re devious, ruthless, or cunning, the Class system’s here to get you on track to playing your way to infamy!
That’s just the beginning. With big news comes big updates, and we’ve got a bunch of improvements unpacked and ready to go with the new Venture. Read the full Update Notes for more!
