Faction Wargames: Ego Traverse
Unknown pirates attacked and tampered with the Faction Wargames system. The brand new mode, Ego Traverse, is here.
Duration: August 10 to September 22, 2022
In the Duel Mode, Capsuleers can participate in 1v1 showdowns by using a battleship or a battlecruiser. In the battle, the ships of both sides must have the same tonnage. A new bonus mechanism has been incorporated into the battlefield.
Capsuleers can customize the distance from the spawn point to the central beacon base on different strategies.
In addition to the Duel Mode, the event also comes with a challenge mode. In this mode, Capsuleers can challenge other people with no open time limit and tonnage limit (but the tonnage of both ships must be the same). Challenge mode is designed to provide Capsuleers with more opportunities to practice battle, so there will be no rewards. Challenge another Capsuleer by tapping the Capsuleer's profile and selecting "Challenge Invitation."
Invited Capsuleers must dock in a station/citadel/outpost first and ensure the tonnage of both ships is the same. Except for the matching method and rewards, the other mechanism and rules are similar to the Duel Mode of Ego Traverse.
