TACTICAL BRIEF
WARDOGS Progression Guide
A practical guide to earning, spending, and preserving cash while the broader WARDOGS metagame remains in development.
Progression — How cash and persistence work
You begin with $10,000 and purchase a custom selection of weapons, gear, utility, and vehicles for each life.
Reviving squadmates, transporting friendlies to the zone, and controlling the objective are teamplay actions that reward cash.
Cash persists between matches. Spending heavily on better gear, equipment, or a vehicle at the right moment can turn a battle and produce a large return.
At Early Access launch, cash is the persistent element. Out-of-session activities, equipment collection, and player skills are planned parts of the broader metagame being built during Early Access.
