Prime Wars are public multiplayer PVE events designed for large groups of players inOnce Human. While it’s not exactly the game’s premier endgame activity, completing these definitely helps when it comes to making endgame builds.
Every player should complete the different Prime Wars on the map at least once, though this is usually very hard to do alone.Joining a Warband inOnce Humanwill make this easier, but before you make your first attempt, here are some things you’ll want to know about this activity first.
How To Unlock And Start Prime Wars In Once Human
Prime Wars are automatically unlocked once a server reaches its second phase. This might change in future seasons, but as of Season 1, this is the only unlock criteria. you’re able to find Prime Wars on the map. They’re represented byicons of a Staroid Restrainer, and they’re almost as big as Monolith icons if you zoom the map out, making them easy to find.
To start a Prime War, go to any one of them and look for the Staroid Restrainer, a beacon-like device somewhere in the area. Interact with it to open a menu showing the rewards you’ll earn and the main enemy you’ll face during the event, which is usually a bigger version of one ofOnce Human’sMonolith bosses.Starting Prime Wars costsStaroid, a type of material you can often find while looting crates or completing commissions.
Anyone on the server can start a Prime War, and players can directly teleport to its location once the event begins via the map screen.
Unlocking Prime War Difficulties
There are four Prime War difficulties: Easy, Hard, Pro, and Nightmare. Everyone starts with Easy Prime Wars, and to unlock the next tier, you need to finish and get a max rating on all Prime Wars on your current tier.
Once Human Prime War Objectives
The goal here is simple: defeat the oversized boss, defend against incoming waves of enemies, and keep the Staroid Resonator alive. The normal enemies are easy enough to deal with, but the bosses here are shielded. To strip their shields,you’re going to need explosives, like the ones fired fromGatling Cannons inOnce Human. These cannons are the best weapons players can bring to a Prime War, and yes, you may build all sorts of fortifications around the Restrainer.
Have some cannons loaded withBiomass Missilefire at the boss at all times, and make sure there are people guarding the Restrainer against the incoming onslaught of enemies. You can build walls around the Restrainer to make things easier.
Once Human Prime War Rewards
Completing a Prime Warrewards players with loot cratesthat may contain weapons, mods, materials, and so on. You getadditional, higher-quality crates based on your final ratingonce the event ends. Players canearn rating points by doing tasks such as healing players and damaging the boss. To get all loot boxes, you need to earn the maximum rating on the Prime War you’re running. The score you need to hit starts at 800 on Easy mode, and it increases according to Prime War difficulty.
Completing a Prime War for the first time also rewards players withStarchrom, the currency needed to get items fromOnce Human’sWish Machine. The gear you get from the Wish Machine often make up the brunt of an endgame build, so if you want to get a specific loadout, you’ll need as much Starchrom as you can get.
