How long can you stay in a mission ?

[Sepharoth]

Is there a time limit to how long you can stay in a mission. Like an assassination infested mission where the infested just keep spawning. Just wondering.  Thanks.

Depends if afk or not.

Technicly i think exterminate has a limit after killing all enemy but i never heard of a limit for assasination.

The limit isn't very evident but there are some.

On missions like Assassination, Capture, you have plenty of enemies coming around but they will eventually stop spawning by reducing more and more. Running Survivals would be a lot more efficient, also Spy has a tendency to stop spawning enemies on rooms you've already clearing, making it unworthy to backtrack.

Missions like Extermination, have a timer between kills, I don't know at this moment how long it was but it's like if you don't kill an enemy for more than 5 or 10min your mission is instantly failed.

Missions like Sabotage, even if you don't get an Exterminate side objective nor a timer, a timer will eventually appear with the excuse that the reactor is becoming unstable.

Only missions you technically have a sort of time limit would be Defense, Interception and Survival as in two of these you must protect something and if that something is captured/destroyed you loose, Survival your limited to your life support. Any other mission you can find some corner where mobs cant reach and afk/idle in for as long as you want. Just dont do it wile playing in a group as its not a very good habit to afk wile others complete the mission.
