Editing Onslaught: Salvation

Onslaught: Salvation is a wave-based defense activity where players fight against the forces of the [[Scorn]] and [[Shadow Legion]] sent by [[Fikrul, the Fanatic|Fikrul]]. Players must defend and repair the [[Advanced Defense Unit|ADU]] against waves of combatants, which are ten waves to a set. If the ADU is destroyed, the activity ends. Players can earn an in-game currency called '''Scrap'''  by scoring and be used to purchase and upgrade defenses at the start of every set and after every 3rd and 6th wave within that set. The playlist version has players complete one set while the Normal and Legend versions have five sets of escalating difficulty. The Extinguish [[Modifier|modifier]] activates by default on Legend, or after completing Wave 30 on Normal. While playing the 50 wave version, some non-Champion combatants will have a random [[Bane]] that must be dealt with in unique ways (i.e. a combatant with a Meteor bane will unleash a solar seeker when damaged.)

On every 2nd, 5th, and 8th wave in a set, a bonus objective can be completed. They include collecting items dropped by combatants, capturing a Scorn totem, throwing batteries at the ADU, running through energy beams, defeating a Champion within the time limit, or completing the wave within a time limit. If the bonus objective is completed, a Heavy ammo crate will spawn near the ADU, and players can earn bonus ingredients if they have completed one of the major fieldwork assignments from [[Eido]].

On every 3rd and 9th wave in a set, an augment wave begins. Demolitionists, Ether-Shielded Bulwarks, Grim Harbingers, their shielded variants, a horde of Husks, or an Enlightened Harbinger will be summoned. Demolitionists behave identically those found on the original variant of Onslaught. If a Grim Harbinger is active, it will summon its Grim backups until it is defeated; if their shielded variant or an Ether-Shielded Bulwark are active, players must find an Ether cannon nearby and remove their immunity shield using it. Defeating these enemies will drop 2 ADU batteries instead of 1 ADU battery dropped by Saboteurs and Champions.

On every 6th wave in a set, a one-way teleporter to a Revenant Nest will activate near the ADU, allowing players to free Eliksni hostages. Players must destroy a Revenant Totem on top of the cage to free the Eliksni hostages and summon a Revenant Baron to stop them. Once both Revenant Barons are defeated and their associated Revenant Totems destroyed, players must now defeat a Nest Keeper to be allowed to leave the Revenant Nest. Doing so will activate a one-way teleporter to exit the Revenant Nest, completing the wave.

On every 10th wave in a set, a one-way teleport to a Revenant Nest will reactivate. Players will traverse a cave ending in a rally flag and a barrier up ahead. The boss wave begins after players leave the cave containing the rally flag. While the boss wave is active, players can complete an optional objective that will help them defeat the boss faster. These objectives include capturing totems, running through energy beams, or using Ether cannons to defeat the Grim Harbingers. Defeating the boss will spawn a reward chest containing seasonal weapons and tonic ingredients, and activate a one-way exit teleporter to begin the next set of waves unless the playlist version was selected, which will complete the activity after Wave 10. Completing Wave 50 will spawn an additional reward chest and complete the activity. Additional rewards that one can obtain are influenced by the Enriching Tonics that are active within their Tonic Capsule.
