Operation: Plague Star has returned on all platforms until June 26 at 2:00PM ET!

Attention Tenno! Ostron scouts have reported that the Plague Star has once again made impact on the Plains of Eidolon! Please review this handy guide and FAQ for all the info you need to conquer this returning Operation. 

This run of Plague Star will be the first on Nintendo Switch! As a friendly upfront update for PC, PS4, and Xbox One Tenno, your Operational Supply Standing from previous occurrences of Operation: Plague Star is still all intact. 

Operation: Plague Star

Rally your Squad and defend the Plains of Eidolon!

The infested boil that threatened the Plains is back, uglier and more putrid than before. Vay Hek possesses a toxin that can destroy the boil at the meteorite crash site, but he refuses to help. Steal his toxin and destroy the boil before the Infested make their way to Cetus.

What You Need To Do

Konzu has a Plague Star Specific Bounty for you. Completing the series of Bounty Missions will earn you continued Operation Standing to shop for all the Event Rewards! You should to speak to Konzu at Cetus to begin running the Plague Star Bounty!   

What You Need To Know

The Plague Star Bounty starts with enemies in the Medium difficulty range, but you can increase the stakes. The more Bounties you complete, the more standing you earn toward something new: Operation Syndicate! Nakak, the oddities vendor, represents the Operational Supply Syndicate for Operation: Plague Star! The Rewards Nakak holds to exchange for standing aren't just vanity - some allow you to increase the stakes to earn more!

FAQ:

“How do I summon Hemocyte to earn the Hunter Mod Set?”
The Hemocyte enemy can be spawned by mixing the “Infested Catalyst” into the toxin during Stage 2 of the bounty. The “Infested Catalyst” can be crafted after Researching the reusable blueprint found in your Dojo’s Bio Lab. Make sure you equip it in your Gear tab!

Yes! You are able to craft the trophies indefinitely so long as you possess an adequate amount of the Hemocyte Cystolith.

For me, in one of the caves where the toxin tube spawns, I get massive frame drops. The one cave on the bottom righthand side of the map, by the shore line. My fps drops from 72 down to 30 while in the cave, and then returns to normal when I leave it
