== Save the World ==
=== COMING APRIL 3 AT 8PM ET - GRAB YOUR GEAR, COMMANDERS. THE SCURVY SHOALS VENTURE SEASON BEGINS ===
Get ready for a new Ventures Season, Commanders. The next Save the World Ventures Season -- Scurvy Shoals -- begins April 3 at 8PM ET and is expected to conclude on June 19 at 8PM ET. 
--WARNING-- The Husks are exceptionally Super during the Scurvy Shoals Venture Season. The Husks, now known as Super Husks, are packing some serious modifier power in the Scurvy Shoals Ventures missions. Here’s what we’re seeing in the field:
Super Melee Monsters - Takers and melee-based Husks move and attack faster, and their attacks slow Commanders by 30% for 5 seconds. Eliminating Super Melee Husks will stun smaller enemies in a small radius for a short amount of time. Chaining these stuns together may stun stronger Husks.
Super Ranged Monsters - Flingers, Pitchers, and Lobbers throw additional projectiles, while Zappers and Blasters fire twice as quickly. All their blasting efforts are causing them to have 30% less health.
Super Tough Husks - Husky Husks and Smashers have increased resistance to trap and ranged weapon damage, and deal increased damage to structures. Sure they’re super, but all that smashing power causes them to move 20% slower. 
Now it’s our turn, Commanders. Grab your gear because it’s a shootin’ and lootin’ season. Eliminating Husks, especially those Smashers, causes them to periodically drop a chest full of valuable items. Greater monsters mean greater rewards and the more Husks we eliminate, the more chests we can loot. 
Ventures isn’t the only thing this week because...
