Players will be expected to find survival supplies, warm clothes, and equipment to survive through the challenge.
Also introduced is the new World Tier Bracket 5. Enemy NPCs will be level 34 and the maximum gear score will be raised to 256. named gear items have also been added, and they have their own unique talents. Named Gear items will be available through Survival Mode or in World Tier 5.
