Summary
The Cataclysm Event
• 8 week event
• First 2 weeks: Pre-events
• 3 new missions
• New area: The Cataclysm
• New systems: Scoring, inversions, leaderboards
• New power & new rewards
A new faction is formed from the remnants of the Dominion. They trigger the Cataclysm and the freelancer has to stop it.
Pre-Event
- The pre-event will be the first two weeks of the Cataclysm.
- During the pre-event, gear will not be rewarded but new cosmetics will.
The Cataclysm Overview
- The Cataclysm takes place in a new area of the map
- The objective is to get to the boss, Vara, and kill her before time is up.
- You earn a score along the way.
- There will be "arenas" where you can complete objectives and increase your score and extend your timer.
- Not every arena will be available from the start.
- While you're in this area, a storm is raging and you need to create "safe zones" to protect yourself from it.
- There will be secrets and mysteries to solve in the new area.
- There will be leaderboards so that you can compete with friends and the rest of the world.
- You will earn currency by playing the Cataclysm and that can be spent on warchests that contain gear.
- Warchests will rotate.
- A feature called inversion will be active in the cataclysm.
- Inversions are like modifiers to gameplay, e.g. increased ultimate charge rate, decreased ability cooldowns, certain weapon kills giving bonus points etc.
- Inversions will change from time-to-time e.g. weekly, daily etc.
- There will also be 3 new main missions that include new cinematics and progress the story.
Cataclysm loot
- New weapons
- New masterwork gear (different Masterwork/Legendary variants of existing gear)
- Melee equippable slot (not items but variants, e.g. a detonator for Ranger rather than a Primer)
- Masterwork and Legendary Support Gear
- All NEW items will have a higher power level than existing items. Currently, the Masterwork and Legendary items are 5 levels higher.
Public Test Server
- PTS will start next week.
- They are looking to run it for 2-3 weeks.
- It is PC-only.
- It will not always be up e.g. it may be up for a couple of days, then go down for a while before coming back online.
- If you own Anthem or have a subscription to EA Origin Premiere, you will have access to the PTS.
- It will be a separate client that you have to download.
- The first week will include the Cataclysm but not the rewards.
- It's a PTS, so it will be unfinished. It will be buggy and may crash.
- Patch notes will be made available for changes.
Luck
- Luck has been removed from the game.
- All suits will now have max luck by default (90%).
- Any exisiting luck rolls will change to armour.
