RECOVERY REQUEST
RECOVERY REQUEST is an errand CU-RIE hands out on MARS, and it wants 6 kills of MINING ROVER.
A survey rover bogged to the hubs eight months ago has filed the same recovery request four thousand one hundred and ten times, on a frequency the colony stopped monitoring. The mining units route past its lane and do not stop. Six of them clears the lane, and the request closes by other means.
What it asks
| SHAPE | WHAT | HOW MANY |
|---|---|---|
| CULL | MINING ROVER | 6 |
- ANY KILL COUNTSyours, a companion's, a powerup's — the errand is thinning them out, not proving it was you.
What it pays
Handing it in pays experience, 100 coins and 1 rolled piece.
The experience is authored as a SHARE of your own level bar — 0.4 of one — rather than as a figure, so the same errand is worth the same fraction of a level on the first map and the last. The table below is what that comes to for a hero at the level this venue is tuned for; take it later and it pays more.
The rolled piece goes through the ordinary drop pipeline at your own level. A quest is a second CALLER of the loot system, never a second loot system, so what it hands over is the same kind of thing a monster drops.
| WHAT | HOW MUCH |
|---|---|
| COINS | 100 |
| ROLLED LOOT | 1 |
| DIFFICULTY | HERO LEVEL | XP |
|---|---|---|
| EASY | 19 | 4583 |
| MEDIUM | 19 | 4583 |
| HARD | 22 | 7205 |
| NIGHTMARE | 47 | 316332 |
The chain
Opens THE UPLINK.
A chain never crosses a map or a run: the quest log belongs to the run you are in rather than to the hero, so every link of one is taken, done and handed in on a single visit, from the same person.
