Hazard Levels
Hazard levels along with player count determine the amount of enemies present in a mission and during swarms, as well as an increase to the amount of damage they can absorb and the amount of damage they deal to players. Hazard Levels contribute to a Hazard Bonus, starting with +25% bonus at 1-Low Risk and increasing in 25% intervals to 100% bonus at 4-Extreme.
Scaling
On higher Hazard levels and with more players, the threats players face increases.
- Increased Hazard Levels increase enemy damage and friendly fire.
- Increased player count increase enemy counts and enemy damage weakness, but do not affect enemy damage and friendly fire.
Shown below is a table of multipliers for Enemy Damage and Friendly Fire, only affected by Hazard Level.

1 - Low Risk | 0.5 | 0.1 | ? | ? | |

3 - Dangerous | 1.5 | 0.3 | ? | ? | |
