A New Tournament Is About To Commence

Get Ready For The Darknet Recruitment Race!

SYNDICATE HIGH PRIORITY MESSAGE 

Commander,

The Darknet's buzzing. Or, at least, my desk is buzzing, because our Darknet friend has gotten in touch. The Darknet Recruitment Race is almost up, so call up your Combine. It's time to get to work!

The Darknet Recruitment Race is a time-limited Tournament where your Combine must clear Darknet Locations to recover Tech Components and advance through Tournament Stages.

Tech Components are needed to train Prototype Units in the Syndicate Dark Labs located in your COBRA Base. By training Prototype Units, your Combine can earn Tournament Points and climb up the Rankings!

There are two major parts to the Darknet Recruitment Race:

1. Clearing Darknet Locations and Getting Tech Components

You can send your Units to clear Darknet Locations for ONLY three days during the Tournament. You cannot send Special Operatives to Darknet Locations. 

When the Tournament begins, all Combine Members can find two of these Locations in the Darknet Locations tab of their Syndicate Dark Labs. By clearing those Locations, you can acquire Tech Components, which are needed to train Prototype Units and advance through Tournament Stages. 

You and your Combine must acquire enough Tech Components together to complete each Stage. Each new Stage you reach (save the last one) reveals two new Darknet Locations. If your Combine completes the final Stage and you have cleared at least one Darknet Location, you can claim the final Stage Reward.

After clearing each Darknet Location, you can also select one Bonus out of three options. These Bonuses will be active while the Darknet Locations are available during the Tournament.

2. Training Prototype Units

You can train Prototype Units for the whole seven days of the Tournament in the Prototype Units tab of your Syndicate Dark Lab.

Each Tournament makes two Prototype Units available for training: one Offensive Unit and one Defensive Unit. The Units you can train will change from one Tournament to the next based on the intel we get from our Darknet contact. Collect Tech Components from Darknet Locations to train as many as you can!

Training Prototype Units earns you and your Combine Tournament Points. The more Points you earn, the higher your chances of getting a Ranking Reward!

IMPORTANT: You're forced to hand over unused Tech Components to corporate investigators once the Tournament ends. You'll also lose them if you leave your Combine. Make sure you train as many Prototype Units as possible before you lose the parts, and get as many Points as you can!

Alright, that's all there is to it. Go do all that, and you can roll right over Zandia with those new Prototype Units!
