Assignment refresh
Make sure to take a look at the new assignments when they get refreshed, that way you will have time in order to complete them. Assignments that are not currently in-progress will be automatically refreshed every 12 hours or you can manually refresh them at any time using the Assignment Refresh Token.
Note: If you've already started an assignment, it will not be replaced when using the refresh token.

Officer Traits
Our Researchers were looking for a way to make Away Teams Assignments more enjoyable and rewarding for all Commanders. After months of research, we are happy to introduce the Officer Traits!
Some of our Officers have a specific number of Traits depending on their rarity:

Some of our Officers have a specific number of Traits depending on their rarity:
- Common > 0 traits
- Uncommon > 1 trait
- Rare > 2 traits
- Epic > 3 traits
Unlocking Traits
- Officer Traits are unlocked by using Trait XP
- Traits may also have specific Officer level requirements
- When Officers have multiple Traits available (e.g. Epics) we will need to max out the first trait in order to be able to unlock the second one and so on
Tier 2 Traits – Max out at level 4
Tier 3 Traits – Max out at level 9
Upgrading Traits
Trait XP is a resource that is earned by performing Away Teams Assignments and it’s used in the progression of the Officer Traits.
Who is the best fit?
Our Researchers added one more feature so we can easily spot the best fit for each assignment! In each Officer’s place card, we see 1-4 dots. When they are highlighted, it means that this Officer has one or multiple traits that the assignment needs. The dots correlate to the 4 slots under Critical Traits! Remember, these Traits affect the chance of Critical success in our assignments.
