28 June 2012 | Gameplay - Mission | Legion of Almire | "Feeling Dangerous?"
As an honorary member of Desna's elite Recon Rangers squad, fight your way through a horde of Almirian undead to reach the inner sanctum of their necropolis, which is rumored to hold great wealth for those who survive its deadly defenses. Be warned - the cursed Legion of Almire will not give up its hidden riches without a fearsome fight! Danger Missions, like Legion of Almire are a Prestige Mission. Danger Missions are noted by a red skull icon on the mission card art. A Danger Mission is intended for skilled players as they are much more challenging than an average mission, but have greater rewards upon completion. Danger Missions will begin appearing in your Prestige Missions at Rank 4-1, or once you have entered Tier 2. |
