FAQ – Voyagers’ Ascent

Executive Summary
What is the event about?
Voyagers’s Ascent is a new gate for a PvE event. The gameplay is similar to the Galaxy Gates where you need to clear several waves of the NPCs to get rewards.

There’s a new single map with 5 difficulty levels. Each level uses a 3-Star rating system based on the time that you need to complete it.

Upon completion, you can obtain the new SD and CGL Fragments as well as the new Horizon Shards. With the Fragments, you can craft the new weapons „Singularity Drive“ and „Gravity Discombobulator“.

You can also earn points for the „Voyagers‘ Ascent Pass“ to increase your pass level and to claim the corresponding rewards.

General information
The maps will be available during the whole day. You can enter the gate on X-1 and X-8 maps.

You can only enter the map alone. If you want to enter the map in a group, you may still proceed individually, but other members of the group won’t be taken into the instance.

Each map allows 1 free challenge attempt per day, which will reset at 00:00 server time. If you are still inside the map from the previous day at 00:00, the rewards will still be distributed according to the map selected on the previous day.

After your free attempts are used, you can purchase the Voyagers‘ Ascent Pass from the shop to enter the map. If you purchase the Voyagers‘ Ascent Pass, you can get 1 extra free attempt every day.

New Maps
The new maps are called „Voyagers‘ Ascent“. A brilliant deep-blue nebula cradles a fractured ringed planet, while dense asteroid fields sprawl across weightless ruins. In this seemingly serene dark space – fraught with hidden, lethal radiation – only the sharpest explorers will survive.

Each map is divided into 5 difficulty levels: Easy, Normal, Hard, Expert and Nightmare

Difficulty Level	Unlock requirement
1	Default level
2	Clear Difficulty 1 with 3-star rating
3	Clear Difficulty 2 with 3-star rating
4	Clear Difficulty 3 with 3-star rating
5	Clear Difficulty 4 with 3-star rating

After clearing a level with a 3-star rating, you can obtain one additional free entry to the challenge; this is limited to a single use.

The difficulty also affects the quantity of dropped equipment:

Difficulty Level	Star-rated	SD Fragment	CGL Fragment	Horizon Shard
1	1	2-4	2-4	5

5	1	31-47	31-47	25

Singularity Drive
The Singularity Drive update presents two new gear types: Singularity Drive and Gravity Discombobulator. It’s a new weapon system that provides a fresh offensive option; correspondingly to the Singularity Drive, the Gravity Discombobulator will serve as a new type of defensive gear specifically designed to counter the Singularity Drive.

Singularity Drive
The new weapons are:

• IgniDrive Lite
• IgniDrive Apex
• IgniDrive Prime

Gravity Discombobulator
The new weapons are:

• Chronotic Gravitron Lens
• Grav-Lens Omega

Ammunition
The new ammunitions are:

• GSP-30 (x1)
• GSP-75 (x2)
• GSP-150 (x3)
• GSP-300 (x4)

The ammunition serves as a consumable ammunition exclusively for the Singularity Drive. A ship must have a Singularity Drive equipped to fire this ammunition; otherwise it cannot perform attacks. The amount of ammunition consumed is determined by the number of equipped Singularity Drives, consistent with the laser mechanics.

There are 4 types of ammunition in total, differing only in damage multipliers. They all share the same cooldown status. For example, if you fire an ammunition type with a 1x multiplier, it will immediately trigger a 12-second cooldown, during which you cannot fire the 2x multiplier ammunition.

Attack effect
Attacking with the Singularity Drive deals damage to all targets within a 150-unit radius around the primary target, accompanied by an AOE visual effect. This AOE zone remains stationary and will disappear once its duration expires.

The visual effects are differentiated between enemies and allies, varying only in appearance for clear battlefield readability.

New Hangar Slots
The ships can equip a maximum of 10 Singularity Drives. The exact capacity varies depending on the ship type.

The ship can equip a maximum of 15 Gravity Discombobulators. The exact capacity varies depending on the ship type.

Set Effects
Equipping a specific number of these drives will activate set bonuses.

Weapon equipped	Damage Modifier IgniDrive Apex	Damage Modifier IgniDrive Prime	Attack Range IgniDrive Prime
3	1.1	1.1	600
4	1.2	1.2	600
5	1.3	1.3	600
6	1.3	1.3	900
7	1.4	1.4	900
8	1.5	1.5	900
9	1.5	1.5	900
10	1.5	1.5	900

Auto Singularity Drive CPU
The Auto Singularity Drive CPU is sold in the shop for 25,000 Uridium. Once acquired, it can be equipped in the ship’s Extra slot.

After equipping, activation is required through the CPU Quickbar to use it’s functionality.
Upon activation, when using a laser attack on a target, the Auto Singularity Drive CPU automatically fires the default-selected ammunition.

Singularity Drive Stats
Basic stats:

Name	Damage	Range	Duration (s)	CD	Max Damage	Hit Chance
IgniDrive Lite	54	600	8	10	54	0.85
IgniDrive Apex	90	600	8	10	135	0.85
IgniDrive Prime	150	600	8	10	225	0.85

Gravity Discombobulators Stats

Gear	Defense
Chronotic Graviton Lens	75
Grav-Lens Omega	150

Re-randomize
All Singularity Drives and Gravity Discombobulators grant additional sub-stats upon leveling up. Higher levels unlock more sub-stats, up to a maximum of 4 sub-stats.

Assembly
IgniDrive Lite and Chronotic Gravitron Lens can also be obtained through crafting

Item	Craft Materials	Qty
IgniDrive Lite	SD Fragment	200
Chronotic Gravitron Lens	CGL Fragment	200

Upgrade
Singularity Drive and Gravity Discombobulator follow an upgrading system similar to the laser. The maximum upgrade level is 20 and the damage bonus per level increase is 0.5.

An additional attribute is unlocked every 5 levels and the upgrade materials are

• ABR
• Isochronate
• Uridium
• Diametrion
• Indoctrine Oil

Refinement
All Singularity Drives and Gravity Discombobulators grant additional sub-stats upon leveling up. Higher levels unlock more sub-stats, up to a maximum of 4 random sub-stats. You can randomly reset these unlocked sub-stats through the refinement system.

You will consume the new resource “Horizon Shards”to restabilize the sub-stats.

You need the new resource „Containment Node“ to lock existing sub-stats, preventing them from being altered while re-rolling other stats.

Recycling
Singularity Drive and Gravity Discombobulator can be recycled. Recycling a Singularity Drive and Gravity Discombobulator refunds 50% of upgrade materials based on its upgrade level.
