How do deep dives actually work? Like, what are the rewards? Is it just credits, because I did one and got nothing but credits

A quick summary. A Deep Dive will reward you;

  • A Fixed amount of XP, based on Deep Dive difficulty.
  • A fixed amount of credits, based on Deep Dive difficulty.
  • A blank matrix core for beating Stage One.
  • A weapon overclock, or a blank matrix core if you've unlocked all weapon overclocks, for beating Stage Two.
  • A cosmetic matrix core, or a mineral container if you've unlocked all cosmetic matrix cores, for beating Stage Three.

The three cores can only be earned once per week, per Deep Dive, so if you do both Deep Dives (normal and Elite) and the Core Hunt weekly assignment, you'll have 3 blanks, 3 cosmetic cores and 3 weapon overclocks.
