Eruption requires a whole new set of strategies during the first Iron Banner of Season of Plunder.

Here’s how to help your team claim victory.

This season, Iron Banner is a little different–it focuses on the new “Eruption” mode.

Kill streaks make you Surging, which gives you an additional point for your kills. Earn five kills and you’ll become Primed, earning three points per kill.

Wins are your greatest benefit for gaining rewards, so while just participating is good, playingwellis even better.

Eruption focuses on kill streaks–killing or assisting on kills of several players without dying yourself.

When that happens, you becomePrimed.

Playing together with your teammates will help you be more successful in Eruption, where you benefit from both kills and assists.

When that happens, you earnthreepoints per kill and your abilities charge even more quickly.

However, you also have a timer counting down on your character.

Eruption strategies

Winning Eruption is more about staying alive than scoring kills.

Pick fights you think you can win, and avoid helping glowing opponents increase their Surging or Primed scores.

However, wherever possible, you want to spec out for increased survivability during Eruption matches.

Eruption gives you an opportunity to help your team in more ways than just earning kills.

Staying alive is essential, but helping keep yourteammatesalive is also a major part of Eruption.

Track down enemy players who are primed to end the Hunt as fast as you can.

You’ll also benefit thanks to increased ability energy during the Hunt.

The Primed player is also marked on your screen, showing you their location.

Just ensure to work together and be smart about defeating these VIPs.
