Blackwood: F.A.Q.

Friends!

On this page you will find answers to the most frequent questions about the "Blackwood" Battle Pass. We will gradually add more information as dedicated articles get published. Besides, here you can find info related to the previous events that are still relevant.

Access and Key Functions

Q: Will there be a free access to the Battle Pass?

A: Yes, there will be a trial version. But it has certain limits and does not allow to get the maximum number of rewards.

Q: What is a trial version? What benefits does it have?

A: It gives you an opportunity to try out the Battle Pass and make up your mind about purchasing the full version to claim your prizes. You can receive the trial access after signing up on the Battle Pass page. See the table below for all the trial and full version functions:

Q: Will access be available for purchase after the event starts? Will the price change?

A: Yes, you can buy the BP access upon the launch of the event. The price is likely to remain the same. Naturally, you will not get the pre-order bonuses.

Q: When will I get the pre-order bonuses? 

A: You will get all pre-order bonuses after "Blackwood" goes live.

Q: Will I be able to craft a new weapon in this event? Can I craft weapons from the previous battle passes? 

A: We do not plan to add new craftable weapons to "Blackwood". The crafting of old weapons will remain available. You can collect guns from the events to which you had obtained access without any restrictions.

Q: Will combat squads be back?

A: As we have already pointed out, it is possible that they will return as part of a separate game event. However, it is unlikely that any future Battle Pass will feature them.

Q: Will the Battle Pass be integrated into the game client?

A: It will be integrated the way "Berserk" was. We do not expect a deeper integration.

Q: How can I get XP and Battle Points?

A: See the conditions of XP and BP gain in the following table:

Q: How many Battle Points can I get per match?

A: From 1 to 100.

MISSION SYSTEM

Q: Will a new daily mission be unlocked if the previous ones are not completed?

A: No, it won't. New tasks will become available upon completing the previous ones.

Q: Can I skip daily missions?

A: No, you can't.

Q: I have a task that should be completed in a PvP solo mode. What does it mean?

A: The progress will count if you complete the task conditions in any of the three modes: — "Fee for All", "Bag and Tag" or "Battle Royale".

Q: I have a task that should be completed in a Special Operation on a certain difficulty level. When will the progress count?

A: Any Special Operation where you can choose the difficulty level ("Easy", "Normal", "Hard" or "Nightmare") will do. If you complete the "HQ" or the "Cold Peak" Special Operations ("Spearhead", "Ambush", "Zenith" and "Marathon" missions) the progress will not count.

Q: I have partially completed the task that should be done within a single match but my progress remains the same. Why?

A: It will change only if you complete all the task conditions during one single match.

Q: Can I finish a mission in Special Operations if the task says "in PvE"? And what about Private Rooms?

A: If the task does not specify that it can be done by playing a Special Operation, the progress will not count. Complete tasks in ordinary PvE missions on the indicated difficulty level. You can use Private (custom) PvE Rooms as well.

Q: I have a task that should be done in PvP modes. What modes does it apply to?

A: The progress will count only if you play in "Quick Play" or Ranked Matches.

Q: The mission description indicates the class that should be used and some conditions to fulfil. Will the progress count if I meet the conditions but switch the class during the match?

A: No, it will not.

Q: Will the progress count if a gaming session shuts down?

A: No. Any match should be finished correctly with a victory or a defeat.

Q: Does the mission progress count for PvP Private (custom) Rooms?

A: No. The progress will count only if you play in "Quick Play" or Ranked Matches.

Class selection and Skill system

Q: Why is class selection so important?

A: Class selection allows to receive only necessary rewards. Equipment and weapons for other classes can be achieved in the "Crafting" section.
Respectively, if you choose a Rifleman, all prizes the character will receive from crates by completing missions and levelling up can be used only by the Rifleman (including the gear set). Please, pay attention to this detail.

A: They help to make reward acquisition in certain branches more effective. There are three specializations to choose from. Each of them includes a set of special skills that boost a particular action. Each specialization features 4 skills, every skill offering a unique perk. You can invest special points into a specialization to upgrade it. You can learn more about this system from the dedicated articles.

Attention! The progress in "Daily mission completion" gets updated after you do 5 tasks. To get the maximum amount of points, you need to complete 25 daily missions in total.

Q: How can I get Skill Points?

A:

• By achieving certain personal progress levels.
• By completing a certain number of daily and weekly tasks.
• By successfully completing operations.

Q: How can I distribute Skill Points?

A: The distribution depends only on your preferences and the number of Skill Points. Skills in branches are unlocked successively.

Q: Can I change the skills selected?

A: Yes, you can change them for Battle Points any time.

Q: How can I obtain crates for "Item Crafting"?

A: Item crafting crates can be obtained according to the following table:

CRAFTING

Q: Can I craft arms and gear in this Battle Pass?

A: Yes, you can.

Q: How can I now access different sections of the Base?

A: Access to certain Base sections now has nothing to do with its improvements but depends entirely on skill development in the branches "Marauder" and "Tech". Thus, upgrading these specializations you can get:

• full access to the "Operations" and "Crafting" tabs including all their functions,
• reduced energy and resource consumption required for item crafting,
• possibility to always choose an item for crafting.

Q: Do I need a blueprint to craft items like in the previous Battle Pass?

A: The blueprint is no longer needed. You will have to develop a particular skill to select an object for crafting.

Have a nice game!
