******************************************************************************** Phoenix Point Missions, Objectives, Research Tree and Path to Victory FAQ: V1.1 ******************************************************************************** About: ------ I decided to put this FAQ together as there is currently next to nothing available online. I'd like for there to be somewhere where people can read about the tech / research tree and the various missions available in the game. Phoenix Point is a XCOM-like game, that differs massively with factions you can ally or battle with, research and missions that differ based on those factors and 5 separate endings. 3 of those endings are faction related, 1 for a Phoenix ending and 1 where if ODI (the percentage you see at the top right of the screen) reaches 100%. Note that all the information in this FAQ is related to the standard version of the game, no details of content covered in the DLC will be covered. The details covered was gained both from my plays of the game, and from scanning through a vast amount of Youtube videos for further info. As gameplay varies per playthrough, not all missions and research will be here, but I've tried the best I could to find as much detail as possible. If you have details on anything missing, feel free to get in contact. ******************************************************************************** Contents: 1. Objectives - [GGGBZ] 2.

Missions - [GTTDZ]: --------------------- 2.1 - Disciples of Anu - [AASEF] Mission: The Fire Within Faction: Disciples of Anu Prerequisite: Goal: Kill all Enemies Reward: +4 Rep with Disciples of Anu, 400 Food Opponents: Pandoran Description and Tips: First mission for disciples of Disciples of Anu. Fairly straight forward battle against Pandoran's. Fight as you would normally.

Opponents: Pandoran Description and Tips: Fourth mission for the Disciples of Anu. This mission is a real slog. Be prepared for a full on onslaught by Pandoran forces from the get go that respawn constantly. Your goal is to reach and scan (by activating) 3 key location spots. My tip for getting this done quickly, would be to split your forces up to get as many of the key points as you can quickly. Perhaps the first 2 split up, and as one force for the final location. Once you have all 3, run like hell to exit. There is no point in fighting beyond that point due to the constant respawning.
