A mission is a path quest that grants path experience and allows players to advance path levels. Mission types differ depending on the chosen path. Each zone has a different set of missions for each path. Paths provide path experience and completing all the missions in a zone provides a loot bag.
Types of missions
Explorer
Cartography - Making maps has never been more fun... or more dangerous! Travel into the untamed wilds of Nexus and chart territory for your faction.- Expedition - The uncharted frontier awaits! Strike out into the great unknown, making sure to explore every last inch of the map. Cowards need not apply.
Exploration - Nexus is chock full of secret places, and you'll find every one! Use a combination of technology and agility to access hidden locations!- Operations - Exploring isn't just about climbing mountains. Sometimes you gotta gear up, buckle down, and get a job done. Skills definitely pay the bills.
Scavenger Hunt - Ancient artifacts? Check. Remote, inaccessible locations? Check. Fearless explorers who laugh in the face of danger? Oh yeah.
Staking Claim - Nexus ain't big enough for everyone, and second place sucks. So get out there, plant your flag, and claim this planet for your allies.
Surveillance - Get your secret agent on! There's a war out there, and you need to set up remote surveillance devices to keep an eye on the enemy.
Tracking - Ready to hunt? Track enemies, creatures and strange anomalies through the unforgiving terrain of planet Nexus. Epic rewards? You know it.
Scientist
Analysis - Time to put that big brain of yours to work! Whether it's a bug-eyed monster or the enemy's databanks, it's up to you to scan it.
Biology - Nexus is home to the craziest critters this side of the Fringe! You and your trusty scanbot better get crackin'.
Botany - Studying plants on Nexus is cool. Especially when those plants are trying to chew your face off. Stopping to smell the flowers? Not recommended.
Chemistry - Nexus is full of exotic materials and alien compounds just waiting to be studied. Are some of them ridiculously dangerous? No doubt about it.
Datacube Decryption - The Eldan left behind a whole planet full of awesome. So start scanning those relics, robots, and radical machines!- Diagnostics - You're a scientist, and that means you can fix stuff. Whether it's a broken leg or a busted bot, you'll diagnose the problem and take care of it.
Experimentation - Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of hostile alien lifeforms? You do. Study behavior patterns among the natives. And try not to get killed.
Settler
Cache - Who has time to sit around and wait for vital supplies to show up on a platter? Put on those boots and bring home the bacon!
Civil Service - Town guards can handle the small stuff. But when the biggest, meanest monsters on Nexus come a-knockin', you'll step up and save the day!
Expansion - That town ain't going to improve itself. So step up, strap on a toolbelt, and get to work building things that make everyone's life a little easier.- Project - Are you ready for some serious real estate development? Then do your civic duty and build hospitals, taverns, and spaceports for your friends and allies.
Public Safety - Some people just don't have the grit and backbone to get the job done. Good thing you do. Achieve tasks for the greater good, and get rewarded for it.
Soldier
Assassination - Ever dreamed of being a hit man? Channel your inner assassin as you track down targets, put them in your sights, and rack up the body counts!
Demolition - Most problems can be solved with the right amount of explosives. Blow stuff up using bombs, grenades and other weapons of mass destruction. BOOM!- Holdout-Conquer - Are you ready to lock, load, and start taking care of business? Defend your territory against waves of hostile enemies. No guts, no glory!
- Holdout-First Strike - Hit 'em hard, and hit 'em fast! Strike your targets and destroy them before they call in reinforcements, then bask in the glow of your badassitude!
- Holdout-Protect - Being a hero ain't easy... but it's time to step up. Defend allies against incoming waves of hostiles, ensuring they survive another day!
- Holdout-Security - No one likes a thief. That's where you come in. Defend your loot against dirty underhanded criminals, and crack some skulls with the hammer of justice!
Rescue Op - Listen up, Soldier! We have civilians that have been taken hostage by the enemy, and we need you to get 'em out of there! Are we clear? Get moving!
SWAT - SWAT: Special Weapons And Tactics. Know what it really means? Shiny new toys! Test advanced military hardware on your foes. Mercy? Not part of the equation.
