    Greetings, Space Pilot! Have you heard the news? A new gateway to the uncharted regions has just been uncovered! Join your fellow hotshots on the other side, master new challenges and upgrade your ship with some of those revolutionary Quantum Fluid Cores everyone's talkin' about...

    Executive Summary
    The new feature and related items will only be available in the Unity client.

    What is the event about?
    Deep Space Echoes is a new challengeable event for all players who reached Level 15. The new Echo Boxes only drop after defeating the Boss in the Deep Space Echoes gate which contains the new powerful equipment: Quantum Fluid Core. It’s a very strong gear and can even be upgraded in Assembly.

    There will be new special slots in your ships so that the ships can be more powerful!

    After reaching Level 15, Travel Permits will be in the shop that you can get to enter the brand-new Deep Space Echoes gate. The gate is located in map X-1.

    When entering the brand-new Deep Space Echoes gate, there are a total of 50 levels to be mastered. You can choose up to 5 ships and use the appropriate ship to fight in different levels.
    You need to fight through the challenges and use your wits to get as far as possible.
    Every 5th Level, there’s a Boss Fight that the new Echo chests are dropping. To open these chests you need Echo Keys.

    The Echo Chests contain a brand-new items – the Quantum Fluid Core (QFC) that you can equip in the new „Special Slots“ in your ship. This powerful item can boost multiple attributes for ships.

    It gets even more powerful when you upgrade the QFC in a new section of the Assembly: The Hyperforge!

    The Hyperforge makes it possible to upgrade QFC and to recycle it. For upgrading it, you need Luminaflux Alloy. It improves the existing QFC attributes up to multiple levels. You get the Luminaflux Alloy when you recycle an existing QFC or by purchasing.

    Let’s dive into details, SpacePilots!

    General information
    When entering the brand-new Deep Space Echoes gate, there are different levels to be mastered. You can choose up to 5 ships and use the appropriate ship to fight in different levels.
    You need to fight through the challenges and use your wits to get as far as possible.

    The Icon for the event is placed here:

    This is how the Deep Space Echoes gate on map X-1 looks like:
    [​IMG]

    After entering, you’re in the Deep Space Echoes Command Hall where you can
    • Start the challenge (left gate)
    • Choose your ships (middle building)
    • Leave the hall and return to X-1 or reset levels (right gate)
    [​IMG]

    Choose your ship:
    [​IMG]

    You will first choose five ships for the whole challenge and then you choose only one ship that you’re using in the current level. Like this you’re able to adapt your choice to the challenge ahead.

    When opening the Deep Space Echoes, you’ll find the main window with the overview, the boxes, the rewards and your rank.

    This is how the main window looks like:

    You will be ranked according to the numbers of levels reached. When reaching the same level, the quicker (less time spent) you finish, the higher your ranking will be.

    New Items
    Echo chests
    The Echo chests are dropping in the Deep Space Echoes gate after you killed a Boss NPC. The Boss appears every 5 levels and with killing the Boss, an Echo chest will be dropped

    The Echo chests need to be opened with an Echo Key. The Echo Keys can be obtained by passing Deep Space Echoes or you can purchase them.

    When opening the Echo chests, you get a QFC with a certain quality. There are
    • Common Echo Chests with Common Echo Keys
    • Rare Echo Chests with Rare Echo Keys
    • Epic Echo Chests with Epic Echo Keys
    • Legendary Echo Chests with Legendary Echo Keys
    According to the Chest type, the better the chance to get a QFC with a higher quality.

    Quantum Fluid Core (QFC)
    The QFC is a brand-new powerful gear that can be equipped on the new „Special Slots“ that will be added to all ships.

    You get it from the Echo chests. There are different types of QFC: Attack and Defense. Only one of each type can be equipped on your ship.

    QFC can boost multiple attributes for ships. Initially, it has only one randomly generated attribute. But you can upgrade QFC through Hyperforge (a new tab in Assembly).

    Every 5 levels (i.e. level 5 and level 10) can unlock a new random attribute. A QFC can unlock up to 3 attributes.

    QFC will generate a random ship and can only be equipped on the corresponding ship.

    QFC types:
    • Attack (QFC-AX series): The first attribute obtained is a damage type (e.g. damage, PvP damage, PvE damage, laser damage, rockets damage, factions damage). Other types can be obtained after the item has been upgraded to level 5 and 10.
    • Devense (QFC-DF series): The first attribute obtained is a defense type (e.g. HP, shield). Other types can be obtained after item being upgraded to level 5 and 10.
    The QFC has different quality grades which influences the range of its quality (e.g. for QFC-AX10 (quality grade 1) the increase will be 2% to 7%, for QFC-AX40 (quality grade 4) the increase will be 10% to 20%.

    Hyperforge (new tab in Assembly)
    Via Hyperforge, you can upgrade your QFC or recycle it. For upgrading the QFC, you need a new consumable item – the Luminaflux Alloy. You can obtain it by recycling QFC or you can purchase it.

    When recycling QFC, you’ll obtain Luminaflux Alloy (the higher the quality of and the grade of the QFC, the more you get).

    Luminaflux Alloy can upgrade your QFC and improve the existing attributes. When the level reaches 5 and 10, and additional random attribute type can be obtained. The newly obtained attribute will not be repeated with the existing one.

    When upgrading, the attribute value will be randomly increased with a certain range. Currently the highest level that can be upgraded is 12.

    Level Design
    There are a total of 50 levels, and the levels get harder and harder. You can use Uridium to jump to certain levels if you already finished them before.

    You need to finish levels before you can jump to certain levels using Uridium (e.g. if you have reached level 30, you can jump to level 26 by using Uridium).

    Every 5th level, there will be a Boss fight. The quality of the reward is related to your achieved level (the higher, the better).

    The types of the different levels are the following:
    TypesNPCsDescriptionWinning Conditions
    OrdinaryOrdinary NPC LevelsMultiple NPC groups with easy NPCs and a small number of elite NPCsKill all NPCs within the time limit
    BossBoss LevelsBoss NPCs with high HPKill the Boss within the time limit

    NPCs in fixed locations on the movement path

    GuardRegularly refreshed NPC groups to attack the target
    The intensity of the NPC increases with the wave number

    Rewards
    There are three types of rewards: First-time Completion rewards, Regular (every time completion) rewards, and Ranking rewards
    • Regular (every time completion) rewards are Uridium and UCB-100. The higher the level completed, the higher the reward amount.
    • Detailed Ranking rewards will be displayed in the "Rewards" tab of the main window

    Q: Will there be a regular reset of the Deep Space Echoes?
    A: Yes, the reset takes place every month on the last day of the month at 23:59 LST. This reset affects the progress in Deep Space Echoes, the ranking and the ranking rewards. The first completion rewards won't be resetted.

    Q: How does the Ripper Ability work in detail? Does it apply to my own damage dealt or to the damage received by my ship?
    A: The player takes 50% less damage. For example, if the enemy should deal 100 damage to the player, with the ripper, the player will only receive 50% of the damage. This effect is like Prismatic Shield/Reflection/Endurance skills. The Ripper skill isn't affected by ammunition type but only the laser's unmodified base damage.

    Q: Why are the Hi-tech items not working in Deep Space Echoes?
    A: These items were deactivated on purpose, it's not a bug that they aren't working in Deep Space Echoes.
