As the official release date of "Halo 5" Guardians" draws near, 343 Industries has released on Tuesday a new detail regarding the game's levelling system for its War Zone multiplayer mode. The developer claims that with the new leveling system, gamers will be rewarded with medals upon completion of the objectives and defeating bosses, Design & Trend reported.
According to the report, "Halo 5: Guardians'" multiplayer mode is a PvP suite called War Zone. General details of the bosses and the gear levelling system was explained by 343 Industries through the Halo Waypoint blog. In the said blog, the developer revealed how the levelling works and why defeating bosses will ensure victory. Aside from this, the recent update stated on the blog hints how a certain player could become powerful in the game's War Zone arena.
"The first thing to note when entering War Zone multiplayer is that each Spartan starts at REQ level one. This limitation essentially prevents skillful players from immediately destroying less experienced ones with the game's most powerful weapons. However, by completing tasks like killing elite enemies, destroying vehicles and capturing bases, one is able to earn REQ Medals. These medals add to one's overall REQ level," the report noted.
Halo Way Point has listed below some of the medals that players will be able to earn in the game's Warzone multiplayer mode.
- "Boss Takedown and Legendary Takedown Medals for eliminating Bosses
- AI Kill and Assist Medals such as Grunt Kill, Elite Kill,and Knight Kill for killing non-Boss Minions
- Vehicle Destruction and Assist Medals such as Warthog Destroyed, Scorpion Destroyed, and Phaeton Destroyed for destroying enemy vehicles
- Base Capture and Base Defense Medals for capturing and defending bases"
"Medals aren't the only thing that can progress your REQ Level, though. Many objectives award REQ Level progression to all teammates when completed. If you see your REQ Level increasing as you play, it's likely that teammates elsewhere in the environment are capturing bases and eliminating Bosses. One of the best ways to progress your REQ Level in Warzone, as well as advance your team towards victory, is by going after the AI Boss adversaries," the report noted.
"Halo 5: Guardians" is slated to be released on Oct. 27 exclusively on Xbox One.
