Daily Recon Drop
Activate · hunt · recover · bank tiered XP before midnight ET
Ten hidden signals wait across the site each Eastern day. Tap a mission to activate it — the recon icon only appears in the field after you open that briefing. Finds pay 100 XP → 1,000 XP in order (up to 5,500 XP total). New sectors, spots, and questions drop at 12:00 AM Eastern.
Recovered today: 0/10 · Next find +100 XP

Sign in with Discord to bank recon XP when you find a signal.
Tip: activate one mission, visit that page, click the recon mark, then come back for the next. Icons stay hidden until you open the briefing. XP is by find order (1st = 100 … 10th = 1000).
