• New steps to acquire each element will push you to your limit, and keep the action hot and spicy, just the way we like it.

– Only one token can be held at a time.
• The previously mentioned “Steal” mechanic will arrive in a later season, details on how this works will be released alongside. Needless to say, we’re eager to see who the first victors are with this new experience. !
Deployable Buy Stations

– The radius of this removal is slightly larger than the device itself.

• Changed interaction behaviour to allow Players to loot items on the ground near a Zipline.
Tracker Grenade
• Fixed an issue with the Tracker Grenade incorrectly showing up as a Snapshot grenade on the loot card.
