What are Zone Recon Missions?

Time-Limited Infiltration Missions

The primary objective in a Zone Recon Mission is to infiltrate an enemy camp and destroy 3 Vulgus Power Units within a specified time limit. After destroying the power units, you will have to defeat a mini-boss to complete the mission.

Increase Time Limit by Disabling Surveillance Towers

By default, the time limit for you to complete a Zone Recon Mission is around 1 minute, but this can be increased by disabling Surveillance Towers nearby.

They are not marked on the map but you can find these orange terminals within the vicinity of a Zone Recon Mission.

5-Minute Cooldown After Completing a Mission

Once you complete a Zone Recon Mission, that mission will be on a 5-minute cooldown. The cooldown only affects the mission that you just completed and other Zone Recon Missions will still be available.

Fast Method for Farming Rare Materials

Zone Recon Missions are relatively short and usually yield great rewards such as Amorphous Material Patterns and Shape Stabilizer Forms. As such, they are a fast way to quickly obtain rare research materials compared to other mission types.
