Tips

• Failure on calls after 'Bomb Threat' will decrease City HP. Ensure it doesn't reach zero to save the city and earn an achievement.
• Use special items and heroes like Malevola/Waterboy for healing when heroes risk injuries.
• Pay attention to goal requirements (Charisma, Combat, Vigor) for XP boosts.
• Some missions have restrictions (e.g., Combat 6 for Mister Fister, Charisma 9 for SmileMore).
• The 'Weakening Sonar/Coupe' objective may reappear; completing it is crucial for reducing Red Ring HP.

Completing the shift successfully, especially if the city is saved, can unlock future dialogue options and team member rejoining opportunities. The specific reward depends on choices made throughout the shift and past decisions. Failure to save the city may remove certain future options.
