Overview

Some Task Forces and Strike Forces and Trials have an extra Accolade badge associated with them for either completing the Task/Strike Force with certain limitations, or, by collecting a set of Achievement Badges that can be obtained within the Task/Strike Force. These Accolades are entitled "Master of [name of] Task/Strike Force" and are thus referred to as "Master of" badges.

No Deaths, No Temporary Powers, No Incarnate Powers

The following Task/Strike forces grant a "Master of" Accolade for completing the Task/Strike Force/Trial with the Master of the X setting from the Task Force difficulty adjuster window (matching the name of the badge). This disables all Incarnate powers (including level shifts), as well as most Temporary Powers. The Team Leader has access to this window when the Task/Strike Force is started. The Master icon should show under each teammate's status bar if selected correctly.

If a death of a team member occurs, then that challenge fails and the "Master of" Accolade will not be granted. The team, however, can still continue to finish the Task/Strike Force/Trial as normal (but still no access to Temporary/Incarnate Powers).

Note that Temporary Powers granted from and during the Task/Strike Force/Trial do continue to work throughout the Task/Strike Force/Trial even when under the limitation of No Temporary Powers.

Successfully completing Task/Strike Forces and Trials that grant Special Enhancements with this setting on will cause the Enhancement to be granted at its highest possible level (53). This only applies if the Enhancement would otherwise be granted as the reward at completion.
