Events
The Island is filled with interesting places to explore and loot to collect. When you're done exploring you may want to test yourself against some of the more challenging events on offer.
These events range dramatically and some have a surprise in store for the players who engage with them - keep your nerve, keep your eyes open and adapt.
To minimise players treading on each other toes, we ask that you let other players know before tackling some events & monuments by using a chat command like /heli or /doing - check the relevant page for full details.
The Airdrop
The Airdrop is a periodic Free For All event - a Cargo Plane will cross the Island and randomly drop supplies useful for quick progression.
The Bradley
Bradley, the APC, patrols the Launch Site and will target any player in range. However, if you're brave enough to try and take him out you'll be rewarded with high end loot.
The Cargoship
The Cargoship circles The Island with unknown intent - if you're looking to profit here, make sure you come well armed, the Scientists don't give up loot easily.
The Chinook Drop
The Chinook drops a Timed Crate that offers up high end loot to those patient enough to wait for it. You'll need to be well armed though, a surprise awaits those who wait.
The Excavator
The Excavator is a large Monument, with a lot going on to make it attractive to visit. Beware though, it is heavily defended by Scientists, so take care on the machinery.
The Oil Rigs
Two hulking great stacks of metal and flesh, gleaming on the horizon. The Oil Rigs may seem out of reach when first seen from the beach, but it's only a matter of time.
The Patrol Helicopter
The Patrol Helicopter visits The Island every few hours to remind people of their mortality - if you're brave and well prepared, you can return that message to sender.
The Purge
The Purge is a PvP event that happens the day before the map wipe. It's an opportunity to use any weapons or explosives you've accumulated over the wipe and maybe get some revenge for any past sleights.
