Mega Hives are a single-player chain of eight missions that tests your team’s might. Each week you’ll have a shot at completing the Mega Hive mission chain.

• Oasis: Regen Packs have increased Willpower benefit.

Weekly Rewards: As you progress through the Mega Hive, rewards start as basic resources a small chance of cosmetic drops. The more missions you survive, the resource drops increase, as does your chance at gear and minor artifacts. As you near the final mission, you’ll see artifacts more often, and increased chances of patterns/nameplates. When you complete all eight Mega Hive missions you’ll be rewarded with exclusive goodies reserved for this gauntlet, including a significant amount of rare resources.
