Visional Wheel Guide
The Visional Wheel is described as a mysterious multidimensional Deviation. Its origins? Well, that remains shrouded in mystery, much like the best recipes passed down through generations. When activated, this wheel alters reality across all dimensions, triggering various anomalous phenomena for players to navigate.
- Survival: Expect changes in survival rules and resource distribution.
- Combat: New weapon types will enter the fray alongside some build adjustments.
- Game Modes: Rules for specific game modes are set to morph as well.
If you’re brave enough to tackle these Visional Scenarios, exclusive rewards are waiting for you—think valuable Deviations and mods from completing challenges!
First Visional Wheel Cycle
The debut spin of the Visional Wheel kicks off in January with an anomaly named ‘Lunar Oracle.’ Picture this: a red moon casting its eerie light over all dimensions while familiar rules fade into chaos. It sounds like something right out of a sci-fi novel! Here’s how it breaks down:
- Period: Mid-January – Late March
- Date Highlights:
- January 16: ‘Lunar Oracle’ scenarios become available (except novice ones).
- February 13: Get ready for the ‘Crimson Moon’ event packed with goodies!
- March 13: Gameplay enhancements arrive as mysterious shadows emerge.

Lunar Oracle Rule Adjustments
1. Survival Environment and Gameplay Adjustments
The red moon’s glow introduces some notable changes: Deviants gain enhanced stats while players must contend with falling Sanity levels that can only be restored by defeating enemies. Low HP? No problem, you’ll reap increased yields and special crate rewards when you’re at your lowest health!

2. Combat Adjustments
This update also delivers three shiny new weapons with ‘Lunar Oracle’:
[Critical Pulse]: A Power Surge crossbow that unleashes chained Power Surges upon hitting targets—a true storm-bringer!- [Primal Rage]: An SMG letting you trade health for ammo when your clip runs dry—life becomes your greatest asset.
- [Hazardous Object]: An explosive pistol that might cause an Unstable Bomber effect—who doesn’t love options?

3. ‘Crimson Moon’ Challenge Event
Kicking off during Phase 2 of this cycle, players can gather Rubies through various actions or challenge completions within scenarios. These Rubies help boost your event level and unlock unique rewards, including limited cosmetics and Paint materials, which sounds pretty nifty!
4. Scheduling Changes to Other Scenarios
The original Hard modes are being phased out after launching Visional Scenarios due to repetitiveness complaints from players, so if those were getting old hat for you, worry not! Regular scenarios will still be accessible alongside these fresh challenges we mentioned earlier.
