Like the title says, how many c-bills do you stand to make this weekend from this new event.


"Achieve a minimum match score of 30, in Skirmish, Conquest, and Assault game modes

For each qualifying score in a standard 'Mech, you will receive 100,000 bonus C-Bills

For each qualifying score in a "Special"* 'Mech, you will receive 150,000 bonus C-Bills

You get up to a maximum of 20 qualifying matches per weight class

Special and Standard 'Mechs count toward the same weight class maximum

When playing Community Warfare and achieving a minimum match score of 80 this weekend:

For each Victory receive an additional 100,000 C-Bills

For each Loss receive an additional 50,000 C-Bills

Up to a Maximum of 2,000,000 C-Bill for the duration of the event"



Maximum is 2,000,000 in CW plus 80 matches that qualify multiplied by 150,000 which is : 14,000,000 C-Bills.


So how close to that figure do you think you are going to get?

I have 3 weight classes with "special" mechs so the most I can make is : 9,000,000 C-Bills.

I'm not ready for CW so I don't play it.

What about you?

EDIT: Amended to include CW rewards.

I expect to get at least 75% in the "normal" queues (will shoot for 100%), likely very little in CW, maybe 20%

Well since I have wave 1 and wave 2, looks like I could get the full 12....

[Chemie]

actually, you missed the 2MM for CW

[MandyB]

Im gonna make all 12 mill if things go well. match score of 30 seems pretty easy. Definitely feels a lot less grindy so im glad they went this way.

[Deathlike]

Doing CW during this event seems like a lost cause.

For 2 or 3 times the time spent, you get almost 1/2 to equal of what you could earn with a regular mech in a regular non-CW match.

I know CW is lucrative, but this is extraordinarily stingy.

Thanks. I edited in the CW rewards.

Match score 30+? That's a really low bar, I approve

It's basically double CB weekend to complement the double XP weekend we just had.

I might not bother, since I don't really need CB.

I need all the C-bills I can horde. PGI has trained this miser well.

[Mirumoto Izanami]

Welp, I'll be rocking the Panther 10R, Centurion AH, Illya Muromets, and King Crab (L) this weekend. WOOT.

I am coming up on having all the mechs I want, but weapon duration modules are lurking just over the horizon...

Where have you heard this?!?!?!

Why have you shaken me to my core???

[Heffay]

Ilya Murdermets is a hero mech and counts for the bonus.

This. Ilya is a Hero, not a champion, and is on the Pot of Gold sale as well. It counts.

[dethikeed]

Of all the weekends to have to work every day.. I could use the C-Bills.

Where did that quote from? Not me!

Note: deleted that right after I made it, but you people are too fast.
