Assignments

**Assignments** are short quests, consisting of a series of missions. You can have one active assignment at a time, and choose it at the Assignment Board in the Space Rig.

You are free to play any available mission even when an assignment is active, however the assignment only proceeds when you finish the next mandatory mission. Assignment missions are marked with a small white diamond.

There are currently 35 assignments available: Conquering Hoxxes IV, Four Promotion Assignments, Seven Prestige, Sixteen Weapon License Assignments, One assignment for unlocking Hazard 5 difficulty, One assignment for unlocking the Mineral Trade Terminal, One assignment for unlocking Industrial Sabotage, Heavy Duty and Weekly Assignments. Additionally the Weekly Core Hunt reward Infused Matrix Core after completing Breach The Core.

### Warning: Rival Escalation

The bloody machines are retaliating after our sabotage efforts and are sending their troops in to thin our ranks. We have had several reports of machines appearing around Hoxxes and sightings of something sinister and deadly among them. It's time to stand our ground!
 — Assignment description

1 Rewards a Blank Matrix Core if all Weapon Overclocks are owned

2 Rewards a Mineral Canister if all Matrix Core Cosmetics are owned

Note that this assignment is unusual, as it can provide Blank Matrix Cores before a player has promoted their first miner and unlocked The Forge and Machine Events. Because Machine Events cannot be initiated pre-promotion, the only way to preemptively use these cores is to find a Machine Event while playing with another player who has already acquired the Tritilyte Key.

### Weekly Assignments

These two assignments are repeatable in order to reward players for continued play. Like Deep Dives, they reset at 11am UTC on Thursdays.

#### Weekly Priority Assignment

This assignment changes every week to a random set of non-duplicate missions and crafting resources. Although they change every week, everyone shares the same set of missions and rewards, between 80 to 130 per Minerals and  8000.
