Overview
A warsat (war satellite) falls from orbit, crashing into the ground in the area nearby. After a player scans it, players will need to stay close to the warsat to transmat it, as they fight off waves of Hive enemies. At 25, 50, and 75 transmat progress, a pair of casting Wizards will appear. They must be killed in order to allow the warsat transmat process to continue. When progress reaches 100, the event will be completed.
Heroic Trigger
This event can be made Heroic by killing the 3 Shriekers floating in the air around the warsat. They are normally closed and immune to damage. When a pair of casting Wizards are killed, one of the Shriekers will become active and can be killed. Killing all 3 Shriekers will spawn a giant Infernal Ogre, as well as a group of Knights and Wizards. Killing the Ogre will complete the Heroic event.
Additional Information
Swordbearer Knights will occasionally spawn. They drop sword relics that can be used to defend the warsat.
