Merasmissions

From Team Fortress Wiki
Jump to: navigation, search

Merasmissions are contracts given out by Merasmus during Scream Fortress 2015 and Scream Fortress 2016 to players with a Soul Gargoyle to be awarded classic Halloween cosmetics, pages and cases.

Contracts

Participating players are granted one contract each day during the event. These contracts can be completed anytime during the event but must be completed before the event ends. Players who begin participating after the first day will have access to the same number of contracts as players who joined on day one.

Each contract sets a number of skill-based challenges the player can do to earn Merasmus Points (MP). This may include one or more Advanced objectives, but unlike the previous Gun Mettle Campaign, contracts do not have a bonus component. To complete a contract a player must earn 100 MP from that contract's objectives.

In Game

The in-game HUD displays information about your active contracts. This includes your number of active contracts, the MP progression of each contract, and each contract's objectives and MP value.

Soul Gargoyle

The Soul Gargoyle is an item which grants access to Merasmissions and is upgraded with souls collected. A player can receive souls by completing Merasmissions, killing or assisting in killing players, completing map objectives such as capturing a Control Point and pushing the Payload, or by finding and collecting a soul gargoyle that appears at random throughout the event. After the fourth level, it will take 2000 souls for each level. Note that after the fourth level, only the name of the item changes, but the icon remains the same.
