Breakdance is classified as an Arrival Animation. Animations are Cosmetic items that can be used to personalize javelins in the Forge. These items are used to animate the javelins at the start, during, or at the end of an expedition.
Animations obtained as rewards for completing Challenges can only be checked in the Forge after they are unlocked by completing the challenge.
Application in the Forge
Arrival animations can be equipped in the Forge. Arrival Animations are the animations that javelins are automatically performed when they begin an expedition.
Arrival Animations are performed by any javelin even when joined in the middle of an Expedition. Arrival Animations can be canceled by pressing the key bound to the Support/Gear 3 when the animation begins.
To see how an Arrival Animation looks like, rotate the screen so that the javelin is facing you, at the start of an expedition. Or, See them in action inside the Forge by selecting the Animation slot in the Appearance Tab.
Dates Available
Note: Since the Anthem's rework and further development was cancelled on its second anniversary, the dates will not be updated anymore since then.
Breakdance was a time limited cosmetic available through Elysian Caches. It was obtainable only for a duration of 40 days between March 26th 2019 and May 5th 2019.
These Elysian items were unlocked by opening said Elysian Caches at the end of Strongholds, if a player wanted to.
One lancer opening the cache would reward all Freelancers in the team with a randomly selected reward, from within the cache's pool of 162 items—each of which could only be obtained once. This presented an opportunity to obtain Breakdance as well.
