__TOC__


==Overview==


== Battle Mission Rules ==
All players in a battle mission start with preset levels and equipment - earned levels and equipment from outside of the missions cannot be brought in. The equipment provided depends on the Type chosen for the mission, with all equipment provided suited for the chosen Type.


* Each player has a fixed starting level, equipment, and Type level.
Type [[abilities]] and [[blasts|blast modules]] are not provided under any cirumstance. [[Deumans]] have access to their [[infinity blasts]], however as incapacitation results in a loss of the blast gauge, it is very unlikely for a player to be able to use their infinity blast.
** The starting equipment is dependent on the type of the character. Unlike [[Challenge Missions]], types cannot be changed from the mission counter, and must be changed from the Type Counter in the weapon shop prior to the mission.
** Characters do not have type abilities or blast modules. While [[Races#Deuman|Deumans]] has access to [[Blast Types#Infinity Blast|Infinity Blasts]], it's usually very unlikely for them to be able to accumlate enough [[Blast Types#Blast Gauge|Blast Gauge]] to use it before death.
* When a character dies, they will respawn within a fixed period of time. Each mission has a set of respawn points, and the player can choose the one they would like to spawn at.
* During a team battle, victory is decided by totalling up the points of each team.
* There are multiple ways of gaining points, dependent on the mission:
** Killing another player.
** Picking up meseta.
** Defeating Monsters.
*** Defeating a monster has a chance to drop items. The items dropped are individually instanced and players cannot see or interactive with each other's drops.
** Destroying Bases.
** Gaining control of Energy Poles by standing under them for a set period of time.
* The missions will inform the player of which actions earns points, and how much points each action is worth, at the beginning of the mission.
* Some maps has container which drops items. The items dropped from these container are individually instanced and players cannot see or interactive with each other's drops. (With the exception of [[Meseta Grab]]).

Upon becoming incapacitated, a player will respawn at one of the mission's spawn points, and gain 5 character levels to help them gain an edge against their opponents. They will also lose a portion of their points, or drop a portion of their meseta.
