    Survival Mode Season 2

    Queue up for Titan’s Training Sim in the Events tab to challenge yourself against the most difficult battles DCUO has ever seen. 30 rounds of challenge await, if you can survive. Each round consists of two waves of minions and one boss at the end of the waves.

    Earn Materials, Auras, Base Items, Styles, Orbitals, and Pets. Earn Data Chips after defeating each boss. Every 5 rounds will increase the amount of Data Chips awarded from bosses. This currency can be used at both the Survival Mode Vendor and the Survival Mode Season Vendor for rewards.

    Requirements:
    • 4 Players
    • Minimum CR: 310
    • Recommended CR: 316
    New in the Marketplace: Data Chips!

    Data Chips from Survival Mode are now available in the Marketplace like other seasonal currencies.

    Note: Many Survival Mode rewards require your character to have advanced through a certain round. Even if you have or purchase enough Data Chips, you still must have advanced through that round to obtain the item.

    • Combat Pet Ranged Attacks fire much more often now and have had their per hit damage reduced to compensate but overall damage has increased on average.
    • Combat Pets now are balanced to be within the same damage and hit range of each other.
      • These pets include:
        • Vampire Bat

      • The UMS has no buttons and should not steal input focus from the game. The player should be able to play the game normally while the UMS is up.
      • The UMS is on a timer and will close itself when the specified time has elapsed.
