What are Stronghold Missions?
Unlockable Dungeon Missions

The Stronghold Missions are Anthem's unique dungeons, unlocked after either completing the main story line or reaching a specific level. These missions are linear with objectives and area exploration and they can be repeated an unlimited number of times to grind loots!
Can Be Played with Up to Groups of 4

Players can choose to play Stronghold missions with their own group of friends or matchmake with random players to fill up a team. With the toughness of the bosses at the end, it's good to have some backup.
Completing Strongholds Reward Loads of Loot

Stronghold Missions are one of the best ways to farm loot in Anthem. Along with the treasure chests with a decent amount of item each, you'll be awarded a good number of items upon defeating the Boss.
Get Loot from Treasure Chests

There are treasure chests in some areas in the Stronghold Missions that give loot to players when opened. It's advisable to speed through objectives to get to these treasure chests rather than farming enemies when looting for rare weapons.
