No weapon? Kinda disappointing 

Well next week they'll be rebalancing a lot of weapons for range, heavy attacks and maybe crit, due to the blood rush change, so I guess it's not too unexpected.

The Naberus Ephemera will be usable after the Halloween season ends, correct? Unlike the Dullahan Mask?

To confirm this means the ephmera is staying after this event is over.

If you complete the Endurance mode to the required time, yes! It will stay in your Inventory. But it will only be available to earn during Hallowed Flame until November 1st as it is considered a seasonal item:

“Will the Naberus Ephemera return after Hallowed Flame?” 
This item will be a seasonal special - similar to the rest of our Day of the Dead goods. You can expect it to return during our annual Halloween events.

Can we get disclosure on the event cache drop rates?

-edit-
They're on the drop rates site (ctrl+F "day of"). Look pretty reasonable. Thanks for the info.

Allora, cos'è questa materia genetica di Kavat? Non è collegabile tramite chat, né posso trovarlo nel mio inventario.
È fuoriuscita di succo di gatto vampiro?

 

in which mission did you get it?

From caches in the third mission.

This please

[Unimira]

I managed to complete it but think it's one of the more stupid events so far, fail in seconds if mobs get stuck in a corner and you can't even pick "good" rooms since it forces you to move. It really puts some light (no pun intended) on shortcomings in how enemies spawn and their pathfinding, shrinking kill area only makes things worse.

Halloween lanterns offer some relief but they don't always extend time either, definitely would not do this again 😡.

For anyone doing this mission, please dont pick the Flame up then run around everywhere that the enemies are not... makes the missions far more difficult than need be.

And if you are the person Laney describe, please a be a person with a efficent weapon, like scoliac with max range. 

[Liam]

Can we get a fix so you can change the colors on your bats on the ephemera? :3 

[(PSN)MaDMaN_26]

If you are brand new 15 minutes might be tough, great news you have something to work towards. If you have even 1 decently forma'd and built frame 15 minutes is incredibly easy... Can't imagine complaining about it being too hard. C'mon people. Why even play the game. DE could just send us stuff in the mail and we can stay on our ships 

[Zshaisse]

Was really looking forward to it but instead of fun its just the most tedious annoying mode ee

[(PSN)Shiro-Ent]

how do you exactly get the ephamera? how long does a run need to be in order to get it. 

stil slightly confused

Can we have the pumpkin as ship deco, somehow? I think many people would want that. A missed opportunity?

[NeeraKhan]

Awesome! I love this time of year. I love the Infested. I love the rewards! Can't wait to give this a go! 

I'm most excited by the batty Naberus Ephemera.

Yet another pointless Endurance mission with no rotations whatsoever. Might just rename it Mission 4.

[(PSN)coma-edge]

I just used Gara for the 1st mission and couldn't shatter the Mass Vitrify ring. Anyone know why?

[Autumnatopoeia]

I picked up "kavat gene matter" from a cache, but it doesnt show up in my inventory and it didn't add any kavat genetic codes (i had 9, still had 9 after getting it). Any clue as to what this is?

[Inemos]

Seemed fun at first, however the balance between enemy spawn rate and lantern decay is really off. The spawn rate could be at least 2 times higher and the decay 2 times slower.

As it is it is mostly a matter of RNGsus if you get the endurance run or not.

Is Khora's straggle dome intended to keep the enemies invulnerable like a maniac enemy despite the the lantern being right next to them? 

if you used any kind cc in this mission(s), you did something wrong... better use a speednova to bring them "into the light" ^^)  as fast as possible... then let a mesa turret do the rest...

not really, but the decay rate increases over time - that's what makes it more difficult after a while. best way to do it is with a organized team and working together correctly. pugs proved to be mostly a bad choice, not only due to fools showing up, but also due to the randomness of used frames... solo was easy enough with the right frame but indeed could be a problem due lower spawn-rates (also it's a bit boring this way).
