    Attack of the Anti-Monitor Anniversary Event

    The anniversary event is back, featuring open world missions, the Centennial Collapse raid, a new daily solo mission/instance, and a ton of new feats, styles, and rewards. Open your Mission Journal and look for "Monitoring the Situation" or queue up for "Centennial Collapse in the On Duty menu to get started. Here's what's new this year:

    New Solo Mission/Instance: A World Past Hope and Fear!

    A mysterious portal has appeared nearby and a researcher has gone missing! It’s up to you to investigate just where exactly this portal leads and what became of the missing researcher. Look for this mission in the Antimatter Invasion Zone.

    New Styles and Base Items!

    • Unlock a new style-only gear set inspired by Fracture, the original Exobyte-enhanced superhero.
      • Look for the "Exobyte-Boost" styles on the vendor for Qwardian Crowns.
      • Enhanced versions of the style can be crafted with recipes also found on the vendor.
    • Discover two new collections for a title and new Fourth World New God Aura.
    • Find new Brainiac-inspired base items.

    New Artifacts and Artifact Equipment Slot!

    Three new Artifacts launch with the anniversary event! Complete the event's pointer mission, Monitoring the Situation, and you will be able to choose any one of the three as your reward. All three will also be available from John Constantine in your Headquarters.

    • Scrap of the Soul Cloak
      • Stats: Power, Health, Might
      • Soul Tap - Passive: Increases maximum Supercharge, Supercharge regeneration, and reduces Supercharge ability cooldowns.
    • Legionnaire's Sparring AI
      • Stats: Precision, Health, Dominance
      • Predictive Counterstrike - Passive: Countering an enemy grants CC immunity and a Precision and Weapon Damage buff for a short time.
    • Parasite's Power Harness
      • Stats: Vitalization, Health, Power
      • Power Distribution - Passive: Hitting an enemy with a Controller Debuff increases group members' Power and Precision for a short time. This stacks for each type of Controller Debuff on the target.
    PLEASE NOTE: Shortly after the anniversary event has begun, we will launch a SECOND Artifact equipment slot! This will allow you to equip two Artifacts at a time, and reap their combined benefits. The second Artifact equipment slot is not yet enabled.

    Updates and Adjustments!

    A variety of adjustments have been made to the event based on feedback from last year.

    • Centennial Collapse
      • The Centennial Collapse raid has been changed from a daily lockout to a weekly lockout.
      • Currency rewards and replay costs have been adjusted to match the lockout change.
      • Reduced crowd control from Anti-Monitor.
      • Reduced health on Anti-Matter Shards and Anti-Monitor.
      • Reduced Qwardians protecting Anti-Matter Shards.
    • Vendor
      • Vendor costs have been reduced (includes last year's rewards and this year's rewards).
      • Last year's Anti-Monitor gear has had it's maximum item level increased to item level 192.
    • Open world solo missions can now be replayed.
    • Qwardian Crowns are now available on the marketplace, like other seasonal event currencies.

    So after completing all dailies and weeklies I got to choose one of the new artifacts. As far as I understand, we were going to be able to wear two artifacts at the same time now, one of the older, existing ones aswell as one of the new ones. How do you do that? I don't seem to find an option to have both equipped.

    how long does this run for?
  17. TheLastSuperman Well-Known Player

    I saw many mentioning this in shout, I said "just use the teleporter" then I go back to re-enter... low and behold no yellow ring, no ability to warp! So maybe a hotfix asap? I'd hate to wait until tomorrow to be able to see what I wanted to buy today - was about to spend real money in marketplace for Crowns and snag Krypto! Not possible now until fixed :p.

    I think last time it ran for roughly a month, don't hold me to that though!
  19. TheLastSuperman Well-Known Player

    I just spent 12 replay badges to reset the mission, thinking it would allow me entry to the zone via teleporter - NOPE replays wasted :/
