Game event: Hot spot

Basics

Hot Spot — one of the game events on Masterwork, available for all players.

The event takes place in one of the open-world game locations. The location becomes densely populated with monsters, which allows players to get extra loot. The hunting process is simplified - monsters receive a negative effect that increases incoming damage.

Attentive and efficient players can receive valuable rewards by finding a secret Cache hidden in the location.
