Versus Spotlight - Kruber & Ratling Gunner
Heroes and Pactsworn, welcome to the second out of five weekends of the Versus Spotlight events. Every week, we’ll take a closer look at one of the Ubersreik 5 and one of the Pactsworn Specials. Unlock unique time-limited rewards, learn more about the spotlight Hero and Skaven, and do it all while having fun.
This event is PC only. For now.
Previous Spotlight's Rewards
But first, congratulations is in order! The first week's spotlight, Kerillian VS Gutter Runner, was a smash hit! The target for the Community Challenge was surpassed in no time, reaching a whopping 270,000 out of 40,000 by the time the event had ended, and was just shy of a million before the reset today! That's a lot of Heroes slain, you devilish Pactsworn!
For everyone who played during the last spotlight, you've earned this Kerillian Hero Pose and this portrait frame (provided you accumulated enough playtime!):
This Week's Rewards
There are unique rewards to unlock weekly through the Kill-Counter and personal rewards to unlock through a small ‘win-track’. There are currency rewards, portrait frames, skins, and weapon poses to be earned.
Kruber & Ratling Gunner Spotlight rewards will be earnable between November 21 - November 24.
All rewards will be granted the following week.
Kill-Counter
Rally together as community to eliminate Heroes in Versus to complete the Kill Counter. If the community completes the counter, you will all unlock an exclusive skin for Ratling Gunner.
Spotlight-track
Meanwhile, the win-track rewards will be unlocked depending on how much time you spend in Vermintide 2. Don’t worry, it won’t be too difficult, we promise. You can play Adventure, Chaos Wastes, Weaves, or Versus to unlock the rewards*.
Playing for at least half an hour earns you 60 shillings.
Playing for at least an hour earns you another 60 shillings as well as 30 Helmgart Sellsword Marks.
Playing for at least two hours additionally earns you a brand new Portrait frame and 70 Helmgart Sellsword Marks.
Playing for at least three hours additionally earns you a Hero Pose for Kruber!
This playtime is tracked across all game modes, but is only tracked while in an actual match.
*You cannot actively check on your track progression. All rewards will be granted the following week.
Kruber
Although still world-weary and marked by his experiences, Kruber has found purpose in the aftermath of Ubersreik. As a soldier first, last and always, he understands that some battles have to be fought, no matter the cost. And who better to fight them than Markus Kruber?
Ratling Gunner
The Ratling Gun is a six-barreled monstrosity of unparalleled fire-rate, powered by warp steam and operated with a hand crank. This fearsome weapon is normally operated by a Clan Skryre weapons team, but lighter, experimental versions have been sighted in the Reikland. These variants require only a single ratman to act as crew, with little apparent trade-off.
