Mad fire at the door! New features of the major February update. Part 1

Hello, survivors! 

The “Forced measure” season is coming to an end. The joint attack of the Lunatics and Engineers on Aris has borne fruit. Now the Ravagers’ enemies know where to find the key component necessary for Aris’s plan. The signal sent by Stahl is still online, so the Lunatics and Firestarters are setting out to find answers to very important questions.

Khaganate is once again at the center of the season, so get ready to use crazy fiery weapons and modules. In the first part of the entry, we’ll talk about the legendary medium cabin and melee weapons, as well as take a look at the new frame sizes. Let’s dive in!

Legendary medium cabin

It’s been a while since we had a Firestarters’ season. In the first entry, we’ll take a closer look at the new medium cabin from the connoisseurs of the flames. Although this cabin in particular is designed to help you cool down faster and catch your breath in the heat of battle. Even the Firestarters need to unwind sometimes.

The cabin passively increases the reload speed and cooldown rate of weapons. It also accumulates up to ten charges as damage is dealt with any weapon. When the perk is activated, the reload and cooldown rates are further increased for each accumulated charge for a certain period of time. The best thing is that the accumulated charges are not spent. Firestarters crafted the first cabin in the Wasteland that improves its active perk for the whole duration of a battle.

Legendary melee weapon

Do you know what a railroad wheelset is? You’re about to find out. It sounds like something heavy and very painful. You definitely don’t want one of those things flying towards your cabin. But what about launching one yourself? In short, the Lunatics are true to form.

The weapon fires special physical objects, railroad wheelsets, that inflict ram damage upon impact. Yes, that’s not a typo. Ram damage from a distance. Finally! Need we say more?

But that wasn’t enough for the Lunatics. The new weapon can also be used at melee range. Just drive up close to an enemy and start hitting them. However, it’s not that simple. While the wheelset is hitting an opponent, its durability reduces and its damage in projectile form goes down. If you use it as a melee weapon for a long time, you can completely grind down the projectile, and the weapon will go into reload mode. To melee or not to melee? That is the question.

New frames

This time, we have standard and heavy frames for you in the following sizes: 3x4, 3x6, as well as a nodal frame 8х2х4.

And this is only the beginning! The fire will light the way to the next blog entry, which will be here soon. Stay tuned.
