The v23.30 update in Save the World brings the second and third week of Wargames, an update to when several questlines change, and a reloading change. Also, certain Heroes become available once again!
Wargames Week 2: Mist Pods
Week 2 begins Thursday, February 2, 2023! Peas are in the pod and bosses are in the base. Take down the Mist Pods quickly or else tougher enemies will emerge!
Wargames Week 3: Space Rocks
Week 3 starts Thursday, February 9! It’s all coming down in this Wargames simulation — defend your fort while massive meteorites pour in.
Quest Changes
With the start of the Mild Meadows Venture Season, we’ll be adjusting the end dates of questlines available during the Season. We’re making this adjustment because having too many narrative quests running simultaneously can make it hard to follow the stories, especially for new and returning players who join late in a season. The following questlines have had their end date changed, or have been moved from the Season.
- The Blockbuster questline remains unchanged and will last the entire Season (to April 5, 2023).
- The No Dancing questline has been shortened to four weeks and will run from February 9 to March 8, 2023.
- The Valor questine will run for four weeks, from March 9 to April 5, 2023.
- The Brawl of the Wild questline has been moved from this Venture Season and will return in the next Venture Season.
No Dancing Questline
The dreaded Love Storm has returned and according to our most trusted Major, this is an extremely dangerous threat! Stop this lovely phenomenon from hitting Homebase to have the “premiere matchmaker” Stoneheart Farrah join your squad after completing the questline.
Stoneheart Farrah
- Standard Perk: Cupid's Arrow (Arrows splinter on Bow hit, dealing 20% damage to 3 nearby targets)
- Commander Perk: Cupid's Arrow+ (Arrows splinter on Bow hit, dealing 60% damage to 5 nearby targets)
Heroes Return
The Heroes Razor and Kurohomura are available again! They can be earned via the Arcade Cabinet quests. If you've already completed these quests but don't have the heroes, you'll receive them in a gift box in-game. They can also be recruited from the Collection Book.
New Reloading Gameplay Changes
Most ranged weapons in Save the World can now be reloaded while you’re aiming down sights, making it easier to keep a bead on your target as you’re reloading. Weapons with a zoom scope are the exception - those will retain the old behaviour and pull out to the regular third-person view while reloading.
