These are the two event entries in the Siege mission table.
Where this comes from
- Official: nothing yet. Steam’s announcement feed ends with the October 6 launch post, and no official post names the event.
- What exists: the mission entry and its one-line description, the two encounters, the enemy types listed in each wave, and the enemy and cosmetic art named for the Scorched Legion.
- Not known: enemy counts, wave order and timing, which modifiers the event carries, what it pays, which map it runs on, and any start or end date.
Encounters and waves
One Defend encounter and one Hold encounter, each with three waves. The table lists the enemy types named in each wave. Counts, order and timing are not known. The encounters share the name Scorched Legion; the game does not link them to the mission.
| Encounter | Wave | Enemies named in the wave |
|---|---|---|
| Defend | 1 | Advanced Drone Shotgunner; Scorched Siegebreaker; Advanced Drone Sniper |
| Defend | 2 | Advanced Drone; Advanced Drone Shotgunner; Elite Drone Sniper; Scorched Siegebreaker; Reaver with gunner drone and pilot drone |
| Defend | 3 | Advanced Drone; Elite Drone; Elite Drone Shotgunner; Elite Drone Sniper; Scorched Siegebreaker; Vraahk |
| Hold | 1 | Drone; Drone Sniper; Chain Boomer; Scorched Rusher |
| Hold | 2 | Advanced Drone; Advanced Drone Sniper; Flooder; Scorched Grenadier; Scorched Rusher |
| Hold | 3 | Advanced Drone; Elite Drone; Elite Drone Sniper; Scorched Grenadier; Scorched Rusher; Vraahk |
Two things the table shows. The Scorched Siegebreaker is in all three Defend waves, and the Scorched Rusher is in all three Hold waves. Vraahk (called Vrak in some Siege text) is in the last wave of both encounters.
Enemies
Only Vraahk has a confirmed Siege health figure.
| Enemy | Where it appears | Health | Page |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vraahk | Defend wave 3, Hold wave 3 | 200,000 total health (50,000 in the beta) | Vraahk |
| Scorched Siegebreaker | Defend waves 1 to 3 | Not known | None |
| Scorched Rusher | Hold waves 1 to 3 | Not known | None |
| Scorched Grenadier | Hold waves 2 and 3 | Not known | None |
| Reaver, gunner drone, pilot drone | Defend wave 2 | 16,000 total health (base game figure) | Reaver |
| Flooder | Hold wave 2 | 21,000 total health (base game figure) | Flooder |
Earlier preview numbers for the three Scorched drones, not confirmed for the final game: Siegebreaker 1,750, Grenadier 1,750, Rusher 2,000 with a second field of 3,000. The Scorched Boomer is not in these wave pools.
Modifiers
Which modifiers the event carries is not known. The Scorched Rusher is tagged as a shotgunner, so seven shotgunner modifiers list it among their targets: Damage Resistance, Drop Concussion Grenade on Death, Explode on Death, Explode on Death (Incendiary), Flooder Puddle, Grenade Frequency Increase and More Health. The full list of Siege modifiers is on the modifiers page.
Art and cosmetics
The game does not tie any of these to the event as a reward.
