What are Artifacts?
There are eight artifacts, all with their own special powers.
The exact powers they possess will only be known to true Vigilantes that have successfully finished the Rite of Passage.
Each artifact comes in four tiers, ranging from common to legendary. Can you get them all?
More information on the artifacts can be found here.
I see a pick-up point /drop-off point but it spawned an unsafe/inaccessible location. What can I do?
If a pick-up or drop-off point is located at a unsafe or inaccessible location, move close to the point to activate AR mode on your phone. Our server will use your camera to scan the area and, after a few seconds, allow you to reposition the point to a safer, accessible spot.
Always reposition the point if it appears in an unsafe location, like a busy road, or on private property.
Unfortunately, sometimes you will not be able to get close enough to a pick-up or drop-off point to turn to AR mode. In that case, you are forced to abort the mission. Please exclude this location, so we’ll know we should not spawn pick-up or drop-offs here in the future.
What happens if I close the app during a mission?
If you close or leave the app during a mission, the mission will not be aborted, and the countdown timer will continue. The timer will count down faster than when the app is open to prevent cheating (alongside other anti-cheat measures)
I can’t find any missions in my area. How does this work and what to do?
To find missions in your area, adjust the mission range in the search mission menu from 50 to 500 meters; widening the range increases your chances of finding a mission.
We use Google and Openstreets Points of Interest (POIs) to establish your pick-up and drop-off location, so unfortunately less populated areas may have fewer missions available.
Once a mission location is selected, it won’t reappear for 10 minutes, so you may need to wait before trying again. If a mission starts at an inaccessible point, you can abort the mission by going to your missions page and there you can exclude that POI from future missions.
