Schematics

Schematics are collectible unlock pieces that survive every wipe. Earn them as you play, trade spare pieces upward through four rarity tiers, and redeem completed sets for gear, blueprints, VIP time and more — then start over and claim the reward again.

How Schematics Work

Think of schematics as collectible blueprints. Each one requires a set number of matching pieces before you can claim its reward. Collect the pieces, hit the Claim button, and the reward drops to you — then you can collect and claim that same schematic again.

Open the Schematics app on your phone (/phone, then press T to free your cursor) to browse your collection and track how many pieces you have toward each reward.

Pieces persist
Pieces never wipeYour schematic pieces carry across every map wipe. They are the one progress you keep permanently. No matter how many times the server wipes, your collection stays intact.

Where Pieces Come From

  • Lazarus Pass — progressing through the Pass rewards schematic pieces at regular intervals. This is the main long-term source. See Lazarus Pass.
  • Daily Schematic Case — a free case unlocked by 15 minutes of playtime (900 seconds), claimable once per day. Rewards reset at 06:00. See the Daily Case section below.
  • Trade-ups — convert pieces you have too many of into a rarer tier. See Rarities & Trade-Ups below.

Rarities & Trade-Ups

Every schematic belongs to one of four rarity tiers. Higher-rarity schematics take more pieces to complete, but their rewards are significantly better.

Random Schematic Wrappers

The daily case drops random schematic wrappers — sealed pieces that reveal a random schematic of that rarity tier when opened. There are four wrappers, one per tier. The rarer wrappers drop less often:

Trading Up

Sitting on too many low-tier pieces? Use the Trades tab in the Schematics app to trade upward. Lower-tier pieces can be exchanged for a piece of the next tier up through rotating trade offers that reset every 4 hours.

Trade offers rotateTrade-up offers reset every 4 hours — if the deal you want isn't available, check back later. The available offers change each cycle so there is always an upward path.

The Daily Case

Every day you can claim a free Daily Schematic Case. It costs nothing and hands you a collection of random schematic wrappers spread across all four rarity tiers.

  1. Play for 15 minutesThe daily case is locked behind 900 seconds of active playtime on the server. This is tracked automatically — no command needed. It stops fresh-account exploits and ensures the reward goes to active players.
  2. Wait for the unlock windowDaily case rewards unlock at 06:00 server time. If you have your playtime banked before that, the case becomes claimable the moment the window opens.
  3. Claim in the Schematics appOpen your phone with /phone, navigate to the Schematics app, and tap the daily case to claim. Your pieces are added to your collection immediately.
  4. Trade offers refreshIf you are using the Trades tab, note that trade offers also reset every 4 hours independently of the daily case timer — so you may get fresh deals multiple times per day.
Compound your collection dailyBecause pieces never wipe, every day you claim the case you are making permanent progress. Even if you never complete a rare schematic in one wipe, the pieces carry forward until you do.

Claim as many times as you likeRedeeming a schematic does not remove it from your collection. Collect enough pieces again and you can claim the same reward a second time, a third — as many as you want across your time on the server.
