What Master Builder is

Per the official announcement: “Once you have completed all Jobs, clock right back in bright and early to earn your Master Builder Certification! Replay each one with more challenges, unexpected twists and ways for things to go horribly, horribly wrong.”

How it unlocks

  1. Complete all Jobs — finish the Crisis Jobs available in the game.
  2. Earn the Certification — the in-game certification tracks your Master Builder status.
  3. Replay with variants — Jobs gain extra challenges and twists at Master Builder level.

What it changes

  • Official launch materials tie Certifications to unlocking “new and wacky cosmetics” and Master Builder modes.
  • Exact difficulty multipliers, timing changes and reward rates are not published by official sources and are not stated here.

Master Builder interacts with the 100% completion path and each Job page — Hotel Hapless, Drain Strain and Crane Climb — plus the achievement hub.
