Winter Nexus (2023): Difference between revisions

== Login campaign ==

Capsuleers must log in daily for 30 days from 05 December 2023 onwards to collect all rewards. A total of 125k [[Skill Points]] are available to {{clonestate|alpha}} accounts, while {{clonestate|omega}} accounts have access to an additional 525k skill points and 26,500 [[EverMark]]s. The big reward is on day 23, so even if you do not manage to log in for all 30 days, as long as you manage those 23 days you will only miss out on some Boosters and Ice Storm Filaments.

=== Special game mechanics ===

All of the storm systems will feature a special set of environmental effects that reduce heat damage suffered by [[overheating]] modules and increases Thermal resistance.
