Vortex Of Greed

During the season when the gate is available, it appears on the X1-map for players who already reached level 13.
It’s opened up 3 times each day and each session lasts for 15 minutes. You can enter the map at any time during these periods:

• Each map has a maximum player amount of 20 players. When 20 players are in a map, a new map will be activated. As soon as you enter the map, your PvP protection will be removed.
• If you die on the map, you cannot respawn immediately but there’s a 10-second countdown until you can respawn at a random point again with restored full health.
• If you remain unspawned for an extended period or if you disconnect, you will only be able to respawn at the base.
• Upon entering the map, the maximum distance of bright illumination on the screen is shortened so that you’re not able to see farther areas clearly.
• Every 2 minutes 15 boxes will spawn on the map. If you pick up a box, you get 2 Stellar Coins. With every new spawn, unpicked boxes from previous spawn waves will disappear. The boxes cannot be picked up by P.E.T.s and the box rewards won’t be affected by the Box Doubler.
• Every 2 minutes, 12 Interceptors, 6 Barracudas and 3 Saboteurs will spawn at random locations on the map. They have an increased health than usual!
• At the 10-minute mark, a Deadly Battleray will spawn at a random point: After defeating it, there’s no box that spawns but the player who deals the last shot to the Deadly Battleray will receive the „Bounty Target“ status.
• You can also obtain Stellar Coins by fighting against other players. All Stellar Coins that a player owns will be displayed below the player’s ship and visible to all players.
• If you kill another player, all Stellar Coins that the defeated player owns will drop as a loot box that is visible to all players until picked up.
• You got the Bounty Target status? Congratulations! If you manage to sucessfully evacuate from the gate, you’ll get large quantities of Stellar Coin and of the high-value material Cryo-Nano Coolant, and you’ll get a title.
• Danger! If you’re carrying the Bounty Target status, you’ll have a unique visual marker displayed on your ship and your ships location will be displayed on the mini-map – a good catch for other players who will target you to steal your prey!
• If you’re defeated and your Bounty Target stolen, the status of Bounty Target will transfer to the killer’s ship.
• A total of 3 Evacuation Zones will spawn on the map so that you are able to bring your bounty to safety. The Evacuation Zones won’t be displayed on the mini-map.
• At the 8-minute mark, 2 Evacuation Zones will spawn randomly on the map.
• At the 10-minute mark, the 3rd Evacuation Zone will spawn.
• After reaching an Evacuation Zone, you need to survive within it for 10 seconds before you can evacuate successfully. If you leave the Evacuation Zone during this period, the time resets.
• Only after evacuating successfully via the Evacuation Zones, the Stellar Coins and the Bounty rewards that you’ve obtained via gameplay will be credited to your inventory.
• On Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday at the 20:00, a double Stellar Coin reward session is activated. Upon successful evacuation, the Stellar Coins earned during the Vortex of Greed session will be doubled (other resources, e.g. Bounty Target rewards and other rewards from killing NPCs, will not be doubled!).
• You collect Stellar Coins in the Vortex of Greed gate by collecting boxes, defeating NPCs or other players.
• The maximum number that you can obtain per week is 6.000. If you reach this cap via Vortex of Greed, further participation won’t grant additional Stellar Coins.
• The cap resets at 00:00 LST every Monday.
• If you receive Stellar Coins outside of Vortex of Greed (e.g. via in-game message, other rewards or events outside of Vortex of greed), the cap can be exceeded.
• You can use the Stellar Coins from your inventory to redeem other items in the Vortex of Greed store, e.g. exchange them for the new Cryo-Nano Coolant or the Plasmatic Equalization Plate.
