Escalation Requisition Vendor

This update brings a new vendor to the game: the Escalation Requisition Vendor. Here, you can exchange Escalation Tokens for Prototype Gear rewards. You can find it in the Base of Operations, next to the Escalation panel.

The Escalation Requisition Vendor offers three different types of caches:

Prototype Random Cache

  • This cache is always available for sale.

  • Opening this cache rewards one Prototype item of any type.

Prototype Gear Cache

  • This cache is part of a daily rotation.

  • Every day, it features a different equipment type in Prototype quality.

  • Opening this cache rewards one Prototype item of that specific type.

  • Items obtained from this cache have a higher chance of getting better rolls.

Prototype Weapon Cache

  • This cache is also part of a daily rotation.

  • Every day, it features a different weapon type in Prototype quality.

  • Opening this cache rewards one Prototype weapon of that specific type.

  • Items obtained from this cache have a higher chance of getting better rolls.

Note: There is no limit for how many caches you can buy from the Escalation Requisition Vendor, and this feature is available to Level 40 Agents.

CLASSIFIED ASSIGNMENTS

Starting May 12, a new Classified Assignment, The Capitol Anomaly, will become available.

ISAC has flagged another SHD network anomaly connected to lost Agents, leading you to the headquarters of The Capitol Globe, one of Washington D.C.’s former major newspapers.

If you enjoy digging into spaces, following clues, and discovering things you might normally miss during regular missions, The Capitol Anomaly is worth checking out.

Keep an eye out for collectibles such as ECHO s and audio logs, plus additional rewards including themed backpack trophies and named item drops.

Once available, The Capitol Anomaly will appear on the map for players who have reached Level 30. Access can be unlocked directly from there, and owners of the Season Pass Bundle will already have it included.
