The Syndicate returns in the new Crossout season. Part 2

Part 1

Hello, survivors! 

Let’s continue to explore the new features of the upcoming “Wasteland drift” season. In this entry, we would like to tell you about the legendary crossbow and the epic light wheels. So that’s who’s been messing around with the plasma. The next update will also have the new relic plasma emitter!

We remind you that all the new features described in the “Developer blog” are not final and may be changed before they are introduced into the game or may not make it into the game at all. This applies not only to information about possible unique features of new parts, but also to the appearance of the parts themselves.

The “Fukibari” legendary crossbow

The new weapon has come a long way since the time of its medieval ancestor with the help of Syndicate high technology. 

“Fukibari” shoots a burst of three spikes that deal damage and attach to the enemy. The projectiles heat up the part they stuck to and deal periodic damage to it. If you find yourself attacked by the new crossbow and end up with the spikes stuck in your car, we advise you to seek out an ally who can help shoot them off before it’s too late.

The most efficient way to use “Fukibari” is to aim for the largest and most durable enemy parts. The weapon’s high periodic damage would allow you to severely damage such parts.

The “Uwabaki” epic light wheels

To complement the new light cabin, the Syndicate has also prepared new light wheels. “Uwabaki” encourage active play in the thick of battle.

For each enemy within a small radius of you, “Uwabaki” increase the power of your armoured car. The perk has a limit on the number of counted enemies. The most important thing is not to crash into enemies! If you make contact with an enemy, the bonus resets. Being careful and bold at the same time is the key to unlocking the potential of “Uwabaki”. 

The “Nemesis” relic plasma emitter

The new relic weapon is not part of the new Battle pass. “Nemesis” is crafted at a workbench, like the other relic parts.

Dawn’s children send their regards. The new relic is the crowning achievement of the plasma emitter technology branch. A powerful and super-technological weapon capable of slaughtering anyone with bursts of glowing plasma. The relic weapon requires charging to fire, but if you wait a bit, the “Nemesis” perk will cancel out this drawback. 

While you are not firing, the weapon accumulates charges up to a certain limit. One such charge significantly speeds up the charging of a volley. If you use the mechanic correctly and do not try to jump into the fight on the front line, then a little later you will have a great chance to enter the battle on your own terms and leave melted wrecks of enemies in your path.

New structural parts
