Crash Site Expeditions Explained

Just like the Greenheart Expeditions, the Crash Site Expedition will also require a ticket. However, we don't currently know all of the ways to acquire one.

Based on what we know from the past, we can assume that Crash Site Tickets will be added as drops to existing PvE Encounters.

Additionally, we now have a new event known as The Travel Agent, which sells BOTH Expedition Tickets!

Note: We're assuming the general structure remains the same as the Greenheart Expeditions, so take this with a grain of salt until we can confirm this after the patch goes live.

After you've obtained a Crash Site Ticket, simply keep it in your Stash until Day 6. At the start of the day, you'll be presented with a Legendary fourth node which leads you to the adventure.

Day 6 is when the Crash Site Expedition begins, which is significantly earlier than the Jungle Expedition. However, it's worth remembering that Day 6 is the earliest time you can shop for Gold-tier items, which can be very important for certain builds (excluding special vendors found early via events).

The Crash Site event will occupy the entirety of Day 6, unless you lose the PvE Encounter, in which case you should return back to The Bazaar, where you'll proceed with the remainder of the day.

Everything below will be speculation based on the official reveal trailer, but as it stands, much is still unclear. For the time being, here's our best guess at how it works.

Again, we'll be sure to update this soon after the patch goes live!

Hour 1

From what it looks like, we actually begin each Expedition by selecting an item reward. The items teased so far appear to be quite powerful, albeit niche in usage. Which is a good recipe for a fun item.

Example Rewards

Tinfoil Hat is essentially the Shield equivalent of a Tripwire, giving you a persistent means of defense against spammy builds, assuming you have a way to scale its Shield value.

Abducted Cow has interesting Flying/Destroy synergies, with a huge three second Charge effect if you can set up the timing efficiently. A very odd effect, which I suppose is very fitting to the item.

Replicator is Scales but for off-Hero builds. The fact it also doubles as a random item spawner makes this a fun pickup, especially on Day 6. Lots of wild potential with this one!

Hour 2

This node was left particularly hidden compared to the others, and came towards the end of the reveal video, out of order on the "clock". At a quick glance, perhaps it's some type of loot?

Hour 3

Here we have the selection of PvE Encounters, likely with varying difficulties.

Cargo Hold & Command Nexus

Both of these appear to be on the same hour, meaning it's possible the event can play out in two different ways. Seeing the visuals from the trailer, perhaps the Command Nexus is rewarded upon defeating the Gold-tier PvE encounter. Or maybe it's a choice between them on Hour 4.

Cargo Hold

Example Rewards

Galactic Translator is an awesome Economy item, making everything cost 1 gold less and sell for 1 gold more. A sweet pickup, especially for buy/sell strategies.

Disintegration Ray combines fast Damage with item destruction. What's particularly sweet is that you could combine it with Reload effects for even more Destroy triggers!

Command Nexus

Example Rewards

Warp Drive is an insane support piece for a Vehicle setup. Stelle obviously benefits from this the most, but perhaps we'll see other Heroes get more support in the future.

Bionic Arm almost feels somewhat like a Core, with its stats varying greatly depending on how you position it. Optimizing its Cooldown seems like the way to go, but if you need more Damage, six seconds was Haste support is still very respectable.
