Chapter 1, 2 and 3 are unlocked on release (16th of January), chapter 4 will be open on 20th of February (CN) and chapter 5 will be opened on the 27th of February (CN).

The event takes place after Chapter 12 Emergency. PL centres around a sealed off submarine compound that houses the deadly weapon named "Sea star". Soon the conflict escalates, as G&K forces breeches the facility, they found out that Sangvis Ferri and Paradeus were both ahead of them, the operation quickly became another four sided crossfire.

Event run time

No event periods have been defined yet.

Overview

PL event has five chapters in total, laid out similar to the manner of the two previous event Isomer and Shattered Connexion. A story told by separate routes, routes have with no dead ends and will not require backtracking. But however players cannot complete one route at a time, all story nodes have to be played, if one route is met with a dead end, simply find the another unlocked nodes and progress.

Most event nodes are pure story nodes, a small amount of reward will be given after completion. Chapter 1 contains 6 normal combat nodes and 2 challenge nodes. Chapter 2 contains 5 normal combat nodes and 1 challenge node. Chapter 3 contains 4 normal combat nodes and no challenge nodes. Chapter 4 contains 9 normal combat nodes and 2 challenge nodes. Chapter 5 remains to be seen.

Overall difficulty

Chapter 1 and 2 combat nodes difficulty is arguably easier than the previous story events, players with lv60+ 3x expanded echelons can complete with ease. Chapter 3 may require level 70+ and 4x expansion echelons. There is no hard (EX) mode for this event, but there are challenge nodes available, challenge nodes test both the player's echelon level, diversity and performance, as well as their wits.

New elements and mechanics

Event Currency: Crates

Similar to previous story events, crates are available from completing event chapter maps, however the daily limit for crates is lowered to 40 a day as oppose to the previous 60 a day. Completing normal stages to obtain 6; 8; 10 crates while completing challenge stages to obtain 6; 10; 12 crates. The following dolls are possible loots from the event crates:

Pushing Crates mini-game

A new mini game mechanic added to challenge chapters, similar to the manner of the old "Pushing Crates" or "Sokoban" games.[1] to-do

Portable EMP

There's new kind of bomb that player can utilize on the battlefield. Similar to goliath bomb, player can pick them up from their tower and hurl them up to enemy units. Target will suffer reduced stats and will be unable to move for one turn, similar to what EMP generator does.

Shore Gun

Some maps will feature shore gun that player can control. Normal echelon or HOC units must stand on the said gun node for player to control it. Player can use it to destroy selected target that appears on the map within the gun's range. The gun can only shoot one target per turn.

Water Valve

Water valve can be found in some maps. Map objective often requires player to blow them up using goliath bomb. Destroying them will make water leak into battlefield. Echelons that caught in the leakage will suffer reduced stats such as movement speed reduction. Allies and enemies can both affected. Similar to contamination zone, the water leakage can spread across the battlefield.

Welfare Shop

To ease the limited edition doll looting process, the game introduced a form of "guarantee" system to the grinding process. In addition to have a chance at getting the desired dolls from specific enemy and the battle conclusion, players also gain another currency, with said currency, players can exchange all the limited edition dolls available in the event. Currency exchange shop can be found on the top tab of the Kalina's store. Additionally, there is NO LIMIT to how many medals you can obtain.

Defeating enemies/concluding battles that drops 3* and 4* rarity dolls will yield x1 Nova Medal, while defeating enemies/concluding battles that drops 5* rarity dolls will yield x1 Platinum Medal. Doing challenge nodes will yield double the amount of medallions. Medal cost for dolls will be dependant on the dolls rarity, 5* Rarity dolls will require Platinum Medals while 4* and 3* Rarity dolls will require Nova Medals.
