+15 XP per step · +75 XP for completing the quest

When your cockpit browser connects to a server, a precise protocol exchange occurs: your unit sends a request, the server issues a response. This is HTTP — or HTTPS when encrypted. It happens in milliseconds, invisible to most pilots. Today you track it.

Primary Objective
