APB Reloaded v1.31: New Horizon: Meet Lucas and Lynette
Meet Lucas and Lynette
Introducing Lucas Van Rooyen and Lynette Casey, two fearsome higher-ups in their factions that are looking for new recruits to do their bidding in return for rewards that will help you stay on top of the ever-changing street wars of San Paro.
Unlocking Lucas and Lynette
Unlike previous contacts, Lucas and Lynette are not of the specialist tier, instead, these contacts are positioned a little more in APB Reloaded’s mid-game progression and have 15 levels each which means that these contacts can be unlocked as early as Rank 88 if you focus your efforts on maxing just Blood Rose or Prentiss Tiger contacts!
Unlocking Lucas Van Rooyen requires you to reach level 10 with the following Blood Rose contacts:
- Tyron Sennet
- Jeung Bloodrose
Unlocking Lynette Casey requires you to reach level 10 with the following Prentiss Tigers contacts:
- Chiza
- Byeong Lee
If you have already maxed out the contacts named above you will be referred to Lucas or Lynette when logging in with your character on Version 1.31 “New Horizon”.
When reaching the maximum level with Lucas Van Rooyen, he will refer you to Michael Simeone. Similarly, reaching the maximum level with Lynette Casey will result in her referring you to Orlenz' Moretti.
Rewards
New contacts bring new rewards, so here’s a quick overview of what Lucas and Lynette have in store for you!
Weapons
The following weapons are available as part of the standard contact progression with Lucas and Lynette:
- Showstopper Pistol
- OCA ‘Nano’ Pistol
- Obeya CAP40-C NFCP 2
- N-SSW 74 Adeen
- VBR ‘Temptress’
- VAS C2 NFCP 1
- N-TEC 7 Adeen
- N-HVR 243 ‘Scout’ Nol
If you have maxed out Lucas or Lynette you may also be eligible for a rare daily activity awarding you with the following weapon:

Additionally the following Weapon skins are awarded for reaching the maximum level of Lucas or Lynette:
- Short Circuit - Blue

Modifications
New contacts are a perfect opportunity to add new modifications and spice up the gameplay, here are three new modifications as well as one returning modification available in v1.31 New Horizon:
- Display Banner
Orange character mod allows you to place down a large Display Banner with your personal symbol on it! This feature was originally a refer-a-friend reward, and we are bringing it back for those who missed the chance to unlock it previously.
- Long-Range Rifling
The red weapon modification increases your weapon's effective range by 25% at the cost of reducing the weapon's rate of fire by 10%. Additionally, burst weapons suffer a 20% burst rate penalty for using this mod.
- Muzzle Brake (Vertical)
Muzzle Brake (Vertical) is a red weapon modification that will reduce the vertical recoil of your weapon by 30% at a minor drawback of increasing horizontal recoil by 7%.
- Suspension Tuning
Lastly Suspension Tuning, our very first “Tuning” vehicle modification uses a red vehicle modification slot. This modification will decrease the Suspension Stiffness and Damping of your vehicle by 50% with no additional downside. We’re excited to see which cars can use this modification to greatly empower their maneuverability.
These modifications are going to be available for purchase after unlocking them and players will not receive a free version as part of unlocking them as we felt like this behavior should be kept exclusively for Specialist contacts.
Vehicles
The following vehicles are unlocked as part of leveling Lucas and Lynette:
- Growl S3
- Sungnyemun Mirage S-22
Clothing
Maxing our Lucas or Lynette will award you with their respective outfit as well as Blood Rose/Prentiss Tiger inspired presets using some of our new clothing items such as the Trench Coat. Here’s a sneak peek:
Inventory Expansions
More items require you to have more inventory capacity, fortunately, Lucas and Lynette have you covered! Players will be able to earn the following inventory expansions as part of Lucas and Lynette’s contact progression:
- +5 Vehicle Inventory Space
- +10 Clothing Inventory Space
- +5 Symbol Inventory Space
