Overview
- The Expedition Window runs from December 17 to 22, eligibility requires level 20 and sign‑up during the window, and all registered players depart simultaneously when the window closes.
- Opting in resets level, skill tree, stash, workshop, crafting abilities, and blueprints while skipping onboarding so maps and workshop upgrades are available immediately, and players who remain keep Caravan progress.
- Permanent incentives include the Patchwork Raider outfit, Scrappy Janitor Cap, an Expeditions Indicator icon, and an additional 12 stash slots.
- Temporary account buffs grant 10% repair efficiency, 5% XP, and 6% more materials from Scrappy; they scale over the next three expeditions, expire if you skip the next departure, and only one departure is allowed per window.
- New characters receive up to five bonus skill points based on departing stash and coin value at one point per 1,000,000 coins, with the total calculated when the window closes.
