Events

Every boss spawns on every map, every raid. Battlestate turned the spawn chance up to 100% across the board in the days before the 1.1.0.0 season patch.

• Scav bosses come better equipped than usual.
• Gear taken off them cannot be listed on the flea market.
• Night raids are considerably more dangerous — you will meet a boss, and you will meet them in the dark.

Good wipe-end money if you can handle the fights, and a fast way to finish any boss-kill task you have been putting off.

The Lab went dark. For the length of the event the lights were off, which changed how the map played more than any patch note could describe — thermals and night vision stopped being a preference and started being the whole kit.

• A new boss, Wedge, led the Black Division inside Labs.
• Raids ran short — 25 minutes at first, raised to 30 in PvP and 35 in PvE partway through.
• Five event tasks, handed out by Skier and others.
• Finishing the questline granted the Going Dark legendary achievement.

It arrived with update 1.0.6.5 and ran for a fortnight.
