The stream was hosted by Andy, Andrew & Spynosaur. The main topic was the soon to be added Agent System. It was a really “infodump” stream and you should watch it to get the full context. The recording can be found on [twitch](https://www.twitch.tv/videos/232023483) and [youtube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BuVoQdFX1eE). # Last weeks - They thanks everyone for having fun and participating in the bonus events - They will probably cycle through them again later the year again - There are a few ideas for future events like them - Andy put out a very brief video out on social media about the Agent system: [Twitter](https://twitter.com/SecretWorldLgds/status/964187153759637506) - He also was on [Beyond the Veil](http://holosuitemedia.com/home/beyond/) talking about it [Twitch recording](https://www.twitch.tv/videos/229439665) & [My summary](http://www.swlrp.com/forum/m/43796106/viewthread/31662766-beyond-veil-tier-252-valentines-day-special-w-andy-benditt/) # Agent Network ## Overview - Meant to go along with the new content drop - Telling a few more stories from around the world that don’t get a full content area - Unlocks at Level 15, your faction will let you handle our own agents - Thematically the missions are similar to what the players do - The Agent Network will be released sometime next week - Everyone starts fresh with this system - If you are above 15, you get an SMS that leads into the agent network tutorial - There will be a blogpost about the system as well - They would have loved to make this available in an app as well, but did not have the resources for that. It’s ingame only. - So far the content will not be scaled up for this, but if it breaks content that might have to be revisited. ## Interface - Opened by the P key (no real meaning, one of the non combo keys still free) - It shows the roster of agents, ongoing missions - You can view Agents dossier with quite a bit of lore about them in a report style - The agents stats and bonuses to the player are displayed - The gear of the agent (1 slot) can be changed - Agents can be filtered and sorted - Active and open missions can be viewed ![Interface](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/funcom/original/1X/179bb7d6fd60c41805193f5210fd92b348ff44cd.JPG) ## Missions - 6 Categories of missions (diamonds) - You unlock each category through the agent network (as your agents get capable to run them) - They get more difficult ect. - Each mission has a lore description - Rewards are items for your character (Distilled item XP for example), Mission resources, agent XP, agent dossiers or gear - Missions have bonus objectives - If your agent’s traits match the mission, you get additional rewards - Agents have a affinity for a mission in percent - It represents the total chance for success and outstanding results (aka chance for getting loot) - Even unsuccessful missions give some XP but no loot - Missions take quite a while (we have seen timers in hours) - You get a mission report with the outcome once the missions is completed - The reports have also small easter eggs and lore depending on what Agent did them - Some missions are chains, succeeding one unlocks others - The missions get refreshed after a certain time, the time differs depending on the mission slot & type - Missions can re-appear, but should not be available for taking twice at the same time - The mission continues when the player is offline - You can pay aurum to instantly finish a mission, cost depends on time left - Players start with one active missions slot - Mission slot 2 unlocks when you get the second agent - One mission slot is extra for patrons ![Mission](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/funcom/original/1X/ba7cc01dd721573df95c91bfea6f7039f8fde61f.JPG) ## Missions - Resources - Intel, Supply & Assets Resources that might be required by a mission - Rewards for completed missions usually will be different recourses than what was spend - Some Agents are more likely to receive certain resources than others ## Special Mission - Unlocked after first mission - Weekly mission refresh timer (you can do it once a week) - No requirements other than an agent - Great rewards & Guaranteed success - Meant for people to have a reason to at least regularly look into the Agent Network ## Agents - Mechanics - Each agent has a level 25 and a level 50 bonus for you the player - There are bonuses for every weapon and playstyle - The level 25 bonus usually is half the level 50 bonus - Up to 3 agents can be equipped at the same time by a player - If you have two agents equipped with the same bonus, they stack - The first slot for equipping agents is unlocked when the first agent reaches level 25 - Other slots unlock later, no payment, all within the Agent system - Agents have up to two, unique traits - While unique, some traits might have similar effects - There are 6 types of traits (Supernatural, Power, Dexterity, Resilience, Intelligence, Charisma) - Agents have three stats: Prowess, Adaptability & Ingenuity - Agent gear can give traits and stat bonuses - One gear slot / agent - Gear will overflow into your main inventory if the Agent Network inventory is full - You can not change the gear of Agents while they are on missions - Equipping gear binds it to the character (interchangeable between agents) and costs no currency - The first agents might take a bit longer, but with gear and higher mission the later agents will not take as long - Roster size is 40 - No agent dating 😛 ![Mechanics](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/funcom/original/1X/a02f3e7e681b2a9ebc1e43d036d293209623b4f8.JPG) ## Agents - Dossiers - Agent dossier are usable items that grant you an agent - You get to view the dossier (lore, stats) before you put them into the roster to decide if you want to use it, or sell it - Dossier content (lore, stats) but can review it in there any time - Some can be sold on the auction house - Sources for dossiers are: Agent missions, elite dungeons, achievements, scenarios, lairs, raid-finder - Savage coast onwards Action and Sabotage have a chance as well - Agent dossiers are specific to the activity, for example scenario agent dossiers will not drop in dungeons - Regions of the missions matter too - Where what agent is to get from should be found out by the community together, information sharing is encouraged. - You can get all agents, but no agent twice - There are “shiny” agent dossiers, they do not have better stats or something, just look better (like foil trading cards) - Shiny agents take the slot of the normal version if you get them ![Dossier](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/funcom/original/1X/4ed4db647428d18329df9a2eb7e400c830b8ea22.JPG) ## Agents - Boosters - Agent boosters can be bought with aurum - They contain dossiers & gear - The boosters do not have any agents that are not available otherwise ( you can get all agents without purchase) - Some agents are available through the boosters - You can sell dossiers & agent gear from boosters for Hexcoins & buy dossiers and gear bags with those # Miscellaneous - Next stream is planed for 9th of March and they will have a lot to talk about - More story content will come shortly after the release of the Agent System - Forums are open: [https://forums.funcom.com](https://forums.funcom.com) - Funcom will announce a new game next week [https://www.countdown2zero.com/](https://www.countdown2zero.com/) Please let me know if I missed something or got it wrong! _This was first posted on [swlrp.com](http://www.swlrp.com/forum/m/43796106/viewthread/31685422-streaming-ones-february-23rd-2018/page/1).

That’s a nice write-up. The system seems simple enough and I’m looking forward to the collecting aspect. Hopefully, it keeps me busy enough until Season 2 comes. They do have me looking forward to the next stream at least. ---

I think its even less about keeping you busy until Season 2 (in a way that’s been the whole ‘SWL’ existing, instead), but its about keeping you busy _as_ Season 2 releases piece by piece. haha. ha ☹ ---

Thanks for the summary and thanks for the agents. Personally, I think it’ll be fun. It’s going to help make leveling up gear just a bit less of a grind. Not a lot, but, then, it shouldn’t. ---
