SEASON 1 · WEEKLY ROADMAP

Week 6 — Tesla + Semifinal

Tesla Exclusive Weapon and the second Octagon knockout round.

ScopeModern Serum rollout

Quick read

By Week 6, every temporary-season spend should answer one question: does this still create meaningful value before Season 1 ends?

Facts

  • Maintained schedule: Tesla Exclusive Weapon around Season Day 39; Octagon semifinal around Day 41.
  • Hero-specific activation shards activate an Exclusive Weapon; Universal Exclusive Weapon Shards upgrade an already activated weapon.

BlackBar Gaming recommends

  • Prioritize main-squad temporary power that materially affects the remaining battles.
  • Keep useful VRI/Profession progression moving if goals remain.

Watch out

  • Do not tell players Universal Exclusive Weapon Shards can replace activation shards.
  • Do not pour late resources into off-squad Military Bases solely for cosmetic power.
DETAILED GUIDE

How it works

Maintained-current timing

  • Tesla Exclusive Weapon: Season Day 39.
  • Semifinal: Week 6 Saturday / Season Day 41.

Tesla Exclusive Weapon guidance

Use the same activation distinction already taught for Kimberly and DVA:

  • hero-specific activation shards/chests activate the weapon;
  • Universal Exclusive Weapon Shards upgrade an already activated weapon;
  • do not tell players Universal shards substitute for activation shards.

The modern post-season Black Market can provide a later activation path in maintained-current versions, so missing the original window does not necessarily mean permanent loss of access.

Week 6 resource question

By Week 6, every seasonal-resource spend should answer:

Does this still create meaningful value before the season ends?

Good uses:

  • main-squad Military Base levels that materially improve battle performance;
  • VRI / Profession progression still needed for seasonal goals;
  • useful Serum Shop purchases.

Weak uses:

  • pushing off-squad temporary Military Bases simply for displayed power;
  • hoarding seasonal currency only because the settlement conversion is unknown.
