Contingency Contract

What is Arknights

So this is the first time I have managed to force my love for this game onto this site, so I may as well start with a little breakdown of what arknights is. Arknights is a Tactical Tower defence game from Chinese Developer Studio Montagne that is available for Android devices. 

 

The game follows the story of “The Doctor”, who you play as, after they awaken from a coma and are quickly put incharge of the Private military portion of “rhodes Island”, a pharmaceutical company looking into a cure for the highly infectious disease known as Oripathy. Also Catgirls. Lots of catgirls. And catboys is thats your thing. At the same time, the Extremist Faction known as “reunion”, comprised of people who are infected with Oripathy, have began a terrorist campaign that threatens to destabilize the world. Arknights story is part political thriller, part tragic character drama and part Anime.

 

The game is a gacha Game, meaning you need to “Pull” for units which are graded on a star based rarity system, similar to genshin impact. The characters you pull are known as operators and can then be used in stages that take the form of A tower defence style system. Every character is unique (although most do fit into broader Classes and subclasses) and everyone strategy with a stage will be different based on what team they have.

 

Arknights has recently been confirmed to be getting an anime adaptation, scheduled for release in the not too distant future, so if the game itself doesnt seem to be your style then maybe check out the show when it launches. You can watch the teaser trailer here:

Contingency contract 5: Operation spectrum

Occasionally arknights will hold events known as contingency contract. These events are the highest difficulty the game reaches and can be considered the games true endgame. The upcoming event, Operation spectrum, is set to bring lots of rewards with it, so lets go over whats going on and how to get involved.

 

The Map

Each contingency contract event brings a new map, and Operation spectrum os no different. The new map is themed after the kazimierz major, a tournament that was first featured in the Maria Nearl Event that happened earlier this year. The stage also features the dreadknight bosses (theres 2 of them) from that event, which means you will want some units with very strong burst damage on your team.

 

This stage will feature the ability to add any number of “modifiers” from a list to increase the difficulty of the stage. These modifiers are arranged into 3 tiers, with the top being the easiest and the bottom being the hardest, and the difficulty level is represented as the “Risk”. To get the most rewards out of this event, you will need to clear the stage with modifiers that have a combined total risk of 18. Good luck.

 

Rewards

Blue Poison Skin

So what do you get from gaining these rewards? Well you will gain tokens that you can spend in the contingency contract store. During the event there will be both the standard, year round “permanent store”, which is getting some new arrivals, and also a temporary store.

 

Starting with the temporary store, players will be able to get 60000 LMD (the games main currency), as well as 15 loxic Khol for a reduced Token price, and then an infinite amount of these same materials for an increased cost. You can also grab 2 polymerization preparation, 5 Incandescent alloy blocks, 5 manganese trihydrate, 5 crystalline circuits, 15 coagulating gel, 15 sugar packs, 60 tactical battle records and 400 Furniture parts.

 

In the permanent store, events would usually add a new “welfare operator” who are free to buy using the tokens you gain for completing challenges. However, there is no-one new this event, which makes my life easier (however the previous welfare operators “Bilbeak”, “Scene” and “Tuye” are all still available and you should get them, they can all be very useful). What is being added is as follows

 

  • “Shoal Beat” Skin for Blue Poison
  • “Letters from Wessex” Skin for Melantha (A returning skin that was previously a login reward that has long been unavailable)
  • “Operation Spectrum Banner” Furniture piece
  • X4 “Royal specialist chips”, which can be used to increase the potential of ANY six star specialist operator.

 

The banner

This event is not bringing any “New” operators, however the new banner features 4 6 star operators, all of whom will be more likely to be pulled than other operators. The operators are:

  • Thorns (Ranged Guard)
  • Weedy (Pusher Specalist)
  • Sussurro (Slower supporter)
  • Nightingale (AOE Medic)

All of these are very good characters, but if I where to pick the best, the one that you may want to pull for most would be thorns. His 3rd skill has infinite Duration on its second activation, and He also has a self-heal that starts if he hasn’t attacked for a short period of time.

One Thorny Boi

Everything else

Finally, there is the outfit store. This store will gain 3 returning outfits as part of a re-run of the “Rhodes Kitchen” outfit series. These outfits are

  • “Shaved ice Memories” for Magallan (18 Originite prime)
  • “Bibliosmia” for Istina (18 Originite Prime)
  • “Honey Pilferer” for beehunter (15 Originite prime.
