Operation: Sapphire is a PvE mission in Armored Warfare.
Briefing[ | ]
"April 19, 2036. The NPAA has taken over a nearby weapons factory. Take it back so we can re-arm."
Primary Objective[ | ]
Seize the Weapons Factory[ | ]
Players have 15 minutes to capture the control point at H7.
Secondary Objective[ | ]
Destroy the Weapons Caches[ | ]
The bonus mission objective is to destroy three stationary targets whose locations are indicated on the minimap. The time limit is 12 minutes.
Strategy[ | ]
Players should take up positions immediately at the start of the mission, as there are enemies on the main road that will approach the starting location. A common strategy is to have armored vehicles facing incoming enemies near F2, while lighter vehicles provide fire support from the hill at C2. There is a small chance that a lieutenant vehicle spawns among the first wave regardless of difficulty.
Once the first wave of enemies are cleared, slowly head towards the objective. When at least one player vehicle is in close range of the control point, large groups of enemies will spawn on and near it, with more coming from beyond the eastern map border at G9. A smaller number will also spawn and approach from the north near C7, and there is a chance that some will spawn from the southwest. Players with armored vehicles can take position around I5, while lighter ones can provide fire support at F4, or stay further back to the west at H4 to cover friendly armored vehicles from back attacks.
Rewards[ | ]
Sapphire has a x2.73 Experience multiplier and base x7.7 Credits multiplier for completing the mission. The latter can be boosted to x11.6 if secondary objective is complete.
