Can you repeat special missions?

We know:

Special missions don't give TP, but instead a special reward (ROLO shards for the first one).

A certain number of TP is needed to advance.

So what happens if some guildies complete the special mission, but you don't get enough TP to collect 1 star in the sector and then have to repeat it?
I can think of 3 possible things:
1. Special missions are only available the first time
2. Special missions only give rewards if you get at least 1 star in the sector.
3. Special missions are repeatable, and give rewards every time.

The last one would be completely broken and allow for a lot of ROLO farming, so presumably it's one of the first two. Does anybody know which one?

    Sorry then, I misread your post.
    I don't think you will be able to repeat them in the same TB


    You think they will just be the one time then??


    1 time each TB (1 time each week)


    This sounds right from everything I read.

    I believe the OP is referring to the part about a guild not completing a phase and when the next phase opens up for guilds that did complete it, it would reopen for guilds that didn't complete it.

    If they reopen a phase does that guild get to run the special mission again? I would hope not that seems like a big loophole.


    Ya that's what I was wondering to. You could tank the 1st phase on purpose and just keep re-doing the special missions? Would be a huge loophole.

    That was why I doubt that's possible. But if it looks like our guild is not able to progress a territory, it'd be nice to know which of the remaining options will be used: if you don't get ROLO shards if you don't complete the territory, you're better off using your toons for the special mission for other stuff, whereas if you can't repeat the special mission, then it's best to just focus everything in that territory and get ROLO shards and stars there, while leaving the middle territory for phase 4.

    Obviously this only applies for weak guilds, string guilds shouldn't have any issue progressing in all territories in p3 and completing the special mission. Our guild is in the middle. I think we can complete all territories up to phase 4, but better safe than sorry!
  • As the special missions get special rewards not linked to global progression of event, I d say you cannot redo it but only deploy to star the territory
