Overview
By means of the Pillar of Ice and Flame in the Ouroboros Enclave, heroes and villains can revisit lower-level Story Arcs and missions.
How It Works
To do a Flashback mission or Story Arc, click on an Aspect of the Pillar. A dialog box will appear with a list of Story Arcs and Badge Missions, sorted by level range. Arcs you have already completed will have a star next to them.
When you pick one, the box displays the introductory mission description from that arc's contact. Accept the mission, and you're given another dialog box filled with buttons and dropdown menus. These are a selection of optional challenges. If you're looking to test your might, or hunting for badges, these options are a treasure trove.
Badges
When 'flashing back' to a story arc, you can select from a range of bonus challenges. What fun is easy? When you complete the story arc, if you fulfilled the challenge requirements, you earn a badge.
Challenge settings can also be used on Flashback single-mission Accomplishment badge missions and on Task Forces and Strike Forces. However, none of these types of missions will count toward or award challenge badges. Only Story Arcs will grant the Challenge Badges.
Total Completed
Complete a number of Flashback Story Arcs
- 5 - Troubleshooter
- 10 - Adjuster
- 15 - Calibrator
- 20 - Alterist
- 25 - Balancer
- 30 - Correctionist
- 35 - Repairman/Repairwoman
- 40 - Overhauler
- 45 - Time Fixer
- 50 - Ouroboros Mender
Time Limit
Complete a Flashback Story Arc within a certain time limit. Different arcs have different time limits. (30, 60, 120 minutes is a pretty common setup, though). The timer begins at the moment of accepting the story arc. When the time limit is set, the arc must be completed in the amount of time specified in order to earn the associated badge. If you log out or are disconnected during the course of the mission, the timer will still be active.
- Fastest - Gold Medalist
- Second-Fastest - Silver Medalist
- Third-Fastest - Bronze Medalist
