The Heavy Excavator Event transforms the Giant Excavator into a high-stakes combat zone. When active, the Excavator begins mining resources at both output piles. Each pile is heavily defended by elite scientists, auto turrets, and a Bradley APC. Deep inside the machine, two hackable crates spawn near the core, guarded by reinforced units. Players must fight through the perimeter forces, secure the central structure, and hold the Excavator until mining completes to maximize loot gains. The event ends once the area is cleared and the machine finishes its run — if others don’t claim it first.

How to Complete / Tips

• Look for the two hackable crates near the Excavator’s central control room.
• The Bradley patrols around the resource piles — gaining elevation gives you an edge.
• Stay near the Excavator during operation to collect mined materials.
