Welcome to November's wipe! We have some exciting new features to share with you all this wipe. Thank you to everyone for a smooth October wipe.

Just a reminder to vote for your favorite halloween themed build: https://relicpve.com/forums/topic/2024-halloween-design-contest/

Changes/New Stuff:

/raid - new for this wipe. Call upon darkzone scientist to test your skills and build. They will shoot at you, plant c4 and fire rockets at you. You must defend your base between waves. You must complete all waves to receive an ID card that you turn in to Axel (Gunsmith building) at Outpost for the XP.
/raid buy easy - 500 scrap / 1,500 XP reward.
/raid buy medium - 750 scrap / 2,500 XP reward.
Raidbases Changes:
Loot is now tiered. Meaning the more difficult the raid, the better chance for good loot (and more of it). Also, the chance for a Reaper to drop increases with the difficulty.
Easy raids had the XP reward buffed from 750 to 1,250.
Medium raids had the XP reward buffed from 1,500 to 2,500.
Hard raids had the XP reward buffed from 3,000 to 4,000.
Impossible/Expert raids had the XP reward buffed from 4,000 to 5,000.
We have two new modded firearms (sold at Outpost):
Colter is selling the Soulpiercer (modded SKS). More than double the damage with a 31 round magazine. This gun is similar to the m39, single shot but with way less recoil. Satisfying to shoot.
Murphy is selling the Hawkeye (modded Prototype 17). Features an instant reload, more damage and a 35 round magazine.
Elite members can now communicate from Discord. The channel can be found under supporters. Messages sent in #Relic Main Chat or #Relic EU Chat can be seen in ingame chat. Two way communication.
If you're disconnected mid-flight, your mini, scrap heli or attack heli will gently land on the ground keeping you from dying.

MVP this month goes to: LeadWeasel, AtrolynnRae, They've Gone To Plaid

Additional changes:

- Easy raidbases had all their doors replaced with wooden doors to make raiding them easier/less boom.
- Arena now has a better chance of dropping ammo, meds and now some of our modded guns.
- Removed a couple raidbases based on feedback (under Easy and Medium difficulties) from the rotation and replaced them with new ones.
- Dance has been fixed.
- Addressed an issue with expert raidbases not spawning with loot.
- In an effort to keep Outpost, Bandit, City Gate and Arbington clear of sleeping bodies, they will now be teleported to a building up in the sky with a teleport back to city gate should they decide to rejoin us or if someone disconnects in these cities. Plenty of pookies to keep everyone comfy.
- Raiding NPCs (/raid) now drop loot when you kill them.
- USS Ramius (Sub event) is now back in action.
