This upcoming season, running from May 25 to May 31, centers heavily on the use of Blaze Grenades. If you've been hoarding explosives in Speranza, now is the time to put them to use. The core objectives require players to loot Weapon Crates and focus their fire on two of the most annoying mechanical threats on the surface: Shredders and Bombardiers.
Taking down these ARC units in the Red Lakes region isn't just about survival anymore; it's about efficiency. The shift toward Blaze Grenades suggests Embark is looking to see how players handle area-of-effect damage against the relentless drone swarms and heavy armor. Expect the meta for this week to lean heavily into demolition-focused builds.
