Understanding Genesis Mission Rewards
Genesis missions reward players with loot crates after completion.
The difficulty level (Gamma, Beta or Alpha) determines the quality of the rewards you receive.
Higher difficulties generally provide better-quality blueprints and equipment, making Alpha missions the most profitable for experienced survivors.
Reward quality can vary, so don’t expect every completion to produce the same item or blueprint quality.
