Description
Containment was the event map for the third and final night of the Hexscape Event. Like other event maps, this map had a specialized wave structure with special enemies. Players started with a varying amount of cash, based on how many players there were in the match. The rewards you received were based on how many waves you survived and if you won a match. This map had two difficulties, Easy and Hard.
Cash was only gained if an enemy is killed, or in some cases, damaged by a specific amount of health. Additionally, the amount gained was a set amount of cash, which was not always equal to the enemy's health. In solo, you received 100% of the cash when an enemy was killed, or it was damaged enough. With each additional player, this decreased by 25%, which means that in a trio, you only got 50% of the cash. This amount was distributed between players based on how much damage they dealt. However, if a player had not dealt any damage, they would receive 12.5% of the enemy's full cash upon its death or when it was damaged enough, regardless of player count. If it was a decimal, it gets rounded up or down depending on the decimal value. If it was at least 0.5, it got rounded up. If it was less than 0.5, it got rounded down. For example, the Withered gave Error creating thumbnail: File missing$1,000 after losing 25% of its health in solo, Error creating thumbnail: File missing$750 in duo and Error creating thumbnail: File missing$500 in trio between the players that damaged it. Players that did not damage it received Error creating thumbnail: File missing$125.
Health of enemies in this mode scaled with player count. The increase was 10% more health in duo and 20% more health in trio. The first increase was not always the same amount, while the second increase had a varied amount it increases health by. Both increases were affected by enemy health.
This map had the HP Locked modifier, which set the base health to 100, the Blood modifier, which made enemies have a blood effect when killed, the Farm Banned modifier, which prohibited Farms from generating cash. Additionally, on the Hard difficulty, the Cowboy and Golden Cowboy got their cash generation halved, and the Gatling Gun Banned modifier was added, which removed the Gatling Gun from loadouts of players.
This map featured three bosses, being Corrupted Titus, Corrupted Conserver and the final boss, Primordial Drakobloxxer.
Design & Path
Containment took place in a giant crater, which before its creation was a village. Remnants of civilization could be found around the map, with broken tracks, burned down houses and skeletons, and random objects like planks that were scattered around the map. Multiple rocks and cliffs could be found inside the crater. There was also a large portal to The Nightmare Realm, which acted as the enemy entrance, and a corrupted super computer, which acted as the exit.
The path started at the portal and then split in two directions, that took on different twists and loops before merging after the small hill in the middle of the map and into the corrupted super computer that marked the end. There was also a separate path for Primordial Drakobloxxer, which could not be seen. It started and ended at the same points, but took a different route.
Interactive Map
Objective
At Wave 30, the "Defeat the Drakobloxxer" objective would be tasked to the players. This was because the final boss, Primordial Drakobloxxer, did not follow the main path and instead moved around the map towards the exit, disregarding the main path, instead using its own path. Upon defeating it and completing the objective, the match would be triumphed and the final cutscene would play.
Preset Loadouts
In Easy mode, there were three preset loadouts: Vanguard, Sentinel and Onyx Squad. These could set the tower slots after choosing one preset loadout. If not chosen after 30 seconds, it will be randomized.
Rewards
The game calculated how many Error creating thumbnail: File missing EXP you received based on how many waves you survived and if you won a match. During periods of 100% more Error creating thumbnail: File missing EXP (Friday – Sunday), any Error creating thumbnail: File missing EXP earned was multiplied by 2x through the XP Boost modifier. The VIP gamepass also multiplied any Error creating thumbnail: File missing EXP earned by 1.25x through the VIP Boost modifier. These two boosts were additive.
Rewards were calculated as:
| Coins Reward | EXP Reward |
|---|---|
| Easy | |
| Error creating thumbnail: File missing 150 ÷ (1 + [(30 ÷ Current Wave) - 1]^1.3) + Error creating thumbnail: File missing 50 (Triumph Bonus) | Error creating thumbnail: File missing 80 EXP ÷ (1 + [(30 ÷ Current Wave) - 1]) |
| Hard | |
| Error creating thumbnail: File missing 850 ÷ (1 + [(30 ÷ Current Wave) - 1]^1.3) + Error creating thumbnail: File missing 150 (Triumph Bonus) | Error creating thumbnail: File missing 250 EXP ÷ (1 + [(30 ÷ Current Wave) - 1]) |
Triumphing Containment could give out an additional reward, which could be any of the Hexscape Event consumables. These items were:
- Common (60%)
- Turkey Leg
- Easy: 1-3
- Hard: 2-4
- Pumpkin Bomb
- Easy: 1-2
- Hard: 2-3
- Turkey Leg
- Uncommon (40%)
- Sugar Rush
- Easy: 1-2
- Hard: 2-3
- Sugar Rush
Badges
There were also a few badges which can be obtained when playing this map. These were:
Wave Structure
Containment had two wave bonuses, based on the difficulty. In Easy, the wave bonus was calculated as:
- Error creating thumbnail: File missing$500 + ([Waves Completed - 1] × Error creating thumbnail: File missing$150)^1.15
In Hard, the wave bonus was calculated as:
- From Waves 1–12:
- Error creating thumbnail: File missing$500 + ([Waves Completed - 1] × Error creating thumbnail: File missing$150)^1.15
- From Waves 13–25:
- Error creating thumbnail: File missing$500 + ([Waves Completed - 1] × Error creating thumbnail: File missing$150)^1.2
- From Wave 26:
- Error creating thumbnail: File missing$500 + ([Waves Completed - 1] × Error creating thumbnail: File missing$150)^1.25
On Wave 30, in the Easy difficulty every player was given Error creating thumbnail: File missing$50,000, while in Hard, every player was given Error creating thumbnail: File missing$500,000.
Depending on player count, the wave bonus was reduced using multipliers. These multipliers are:
| Players | Reduction per Player | Total Reduction |
|---|---|---|
| Solo | 0% | 0% |
| Duo | 10% (Easy) 5% (Hard) |
20% (Easy) 10% (Hard) |
| Trio | 1% | 3% |
For example, on Wave 2 when difficulty is set to Hard, the wave bonus was Error creating thumbnail: File missing$818.056992433, rounded down to Error creating thumbnail: File missing$818. The full number was used in the equation. In duo, it was Error creating thumbnail: File missing$736 (Error creating thumbnail: File missing$818.056992433 × 0.9), while in trio, it was Error creating thumbnail: File missing$793 (Error creating thumbnail: File missing$818.056992433 × 0.97). The wave clear bonus appeared when every enemy from that wave was killed and no damage was dealt to the base health. It was 25% of the wave bonus in solo, while for duo, trio and quad it was 20%.
Waves could not be skipped in Containment. The waves in Containment mode followed these timings:
| Waves | Wave Timer |
|---|---|
| 1-4 | 0:40 |
| 5-9 | 0:45 |
| 10-14 | 0:50 |
| 15-19 | ∞ |
| 20 | ∞ |
| 21-24 | 1:00 |
| 25 | ∞ |
| 26-29 | 1:05 |
| 30 | ∞ |
Bolded names indicate an enemy type's debut.
Strategy
- The Cowboy and Golden Cowboy cash generation is halved in the Hard difficulty, though they are still great as they can defend the early waves while also generating income.
- Towers such as the Golden Soldier, Golden Scout, Golden Crook Boss, or even the Militant can fare quite well against early waves.
- High DPS towers such as the Turret, Ranger, Golden Minigunner, Accelerator and Engineer are needed to face the threat posed by this mode.
- The Electroshocker is quite useful as it can mitigate the nimble attribute on enemies, stun crowds, provide AOE damage and is able to hit flying enemies.
- It will also not conflict with other towers like the Pyromancer when stunning.
- The Golden Pyromancer is great as it can easily deal with large hordes of enemies while also reducing their defense.
- The Pyromancer is also usable here, though it may not be as effective in dealing with crowds.
- In the Hard difficulty, you will have a sixth tower slot for the Harvester, you can use this tower for its thorns ability, which can damage multiple enemies and slow them down.
- It is not recommended to bring your own Harvester for this reason, as you will waste a spot for other necessary towers.
- Support towers like the DJ Booth and Commander are essential to boost your towers.
- The Medic is especially useful as Primordial Drakobloxxer will have multiple of AOE stun abilities, making it quite useful as it can remove stuns from towers.
- As Primordial Drakobloxxer does not follow the normal path and instead circles around the map a couple times before it heads to the exit, towers with more so large range and high DPS such as the Turret and Ranger are recommended to constantly deal damage to it.
- Placing towers near the middle of the map is also recommended so that all towers are able to hit it without getting out of range.
- The DJ Booth can also be quite useful as it can boost the range of your towers.
- This map is good for grinding Error creating thumbnail: File missing Candy Corn, as it gives the most Error creating thumbnail: File missing Candy Corn per match than every other mode.
