Plankerton introduces power level requirements. These power level (PL) requirements apply to everyone in the party for public matches. If you can change your privacy to Friends Only or Private, the PL requirement only takes the leader's PL into account. Here's a list of Plankerton PL Requirements:
Recommended Rating | Required Power Level | Required Power Level (4 Player Missions) |
19 | 15 | 15 |
23 | 15 | 19 |
28 | 19 | 23 |
34 | 23 | 28 |
40 | 28 | 34 |

Your wood, stone, and metal capacity are increased by 1000.
You can now evolve your weapons, traps, heroes, survivors, and defenders to a 2-Star. Upgrading your traps and weapons will also change the crafting material requirements to 2-Star materials. These can be found in Plankerton. You can also still craft 1-Star versions of your traps and weapons.
This will also give you access to these achievements, once you complete their corresponding quests for evolving a survivor, a hero, a defender, and a trap/weapon, respectively:
