Hold the LineTools

Undawn contains a unique challenge system known as Road of Raven. Within this system, players can gain titles of varying levels by completing different challenges. And on this path to gaining titles, there are two challenges in particular which are unavoidable. One is the Stronghold challenge and the other is the Hold the Line challenge. Today, we'll look at strategies for approaching the Hold the Line challenge.

**Where is Hold the Line?**

You can enter Hold the Line by locating it in the Road of Raven interface to the left of the mini-map. The icon is in the bottom-left corner of the interface (see the screenshot above). Also, it's worth noting that Hold the Line is single-player only and you must be at least Lv. 14 to participate. Combat will become more difficult overall as the stage level increases, so you will need to be well-equipped for it.

**How Do I Play Hold the Line?**

As a gameplay mode, Hold the Line is easy to learn but hard to master. The map is a straight line, and that is the path which you are to follow. The path contains two sections: the zombie respawn points and the gate. Players must eliminate all zombies before the gate is broken or the time runs out. Aside from this, there are no other rules. It's quite simple really.

**What are the rewards for Hold the Line?**

In the current version of the game, the rewards for Hold the Line are a small amount of Silver and skill points. In addition to the first time you clear the stage, rewards can also be claimed once per day. The daily reward contains Silver, a basic materials pack and five activity points. It's a good idea to spend some time in this game mode to strengthen your character. That's because the achievements for this game mode are also prerequisites for upgrading your Raven Title level. So without completing it, your Raven Title cannot be upgraded.

**Tactics for Clearing Hold the Line**

There is no cover on the map, and the spawn points for the zombies are fixed. So essentially, this is a simple trial of firepower that doesn't require much thinking to clear.

**1. Weapon Configurations:** Ammo boxes are provided in this game mode, and the zombies will not attack the players for the most part. Therefore, using Assault Rifles or Shotguns is recommended. Heavy weapons like the Gatling Gun can provide effective sustained firepower. If the zombies are grouped together, then the Grenade Launcher is also a great choice.

2. Throw Skills: At first, you will mostly be faced with minor zombies. Throw skills like Decoy Bomb, if properly leveled up, are effective at wiping out groups of enemies. Even if not leveled up, this skill can still be used to group the enemies together to quickly eliminate them.

3. Placement Skills: For placement skills, healing devices and landmines are recommended. Landmines are a good one to try at first, because most players will find that First Aid Kits are sufficient for healing. However, you will need to adapt your skill configuration as the stage becomes increasingly difficult.

4. Drones: Your drone configuration depends on your chip level. If your drone is weak, then the Treatment Chip is recommended so that you can free up your placement skill. If your drone is strong, try using the Bomb Chip to maximize firepower.

Don't forget that various explosive zombies may appear throughout different stages. Players should aim to detonate these zombies at the right moment to maximize damage dealt to other zombies. Big zombies or bosses accompanied by minor zombies will also appear at certain points in the stage. Reassess your strategy according to the situation. Usually, players can clear the stages that match their level without much trouble.

**Conclusion**

In Hold the Line, you can really let loose and shoot as many zombies as you want. It's great for blowing off some steam and testing the strength of your equipment. Also remember to keep an eye on the upgrade conditions for your Road of Raven Title. Clearing these stages in advance will make things easier for you down the road. All in all, Hold the Line is a challenging and fun gameplay mode that's not to be missed!
