STARTS: TUESDAY MARCH 17th, After the Patch
ENDS: TUESDAY MARCH 24th, 10:00:00 AM PDT

Greetings MechWarriors, and happy St. Patrick's Day!

We're celebrating all week with our Lucky Charms event! Now that you just raided the Pot of Gold, you're after our lucky charms too!

This event gives you a chance to earn up to 25 gifts per game mode: Skirmish, Assault, Conquest, Invasion, and Counter Attack.

Each game mode - CW and non-CW alike - will give you a chance to earn up to 25 gifts per game mode!

All you have to do is earn a Match Score of 80 or above in the Invasion or Counter Attack game modes, or 30 or above for non-CW game modes, to unlock a chance to reach into the Lucky Charm loot-bag for a random prize!

Formula:
  • Get a Match score of at least 80 for Invasion or Counter-Attack to earn 1 point.
  • Get a Match score of at least 30 for Skirmish, Assault, or Conquest modes to earn 1 point.
  • 1 point equals 1 reach into the Lucky Charms random loot-bag.
  • Don't forget to return to this page to check on your qualified matches and claim your prizes!

Potential Prizes are:
  • 1 day Premium Time
  • 1 'Mech Bay
  • MC (various values)
  • C-bills (various values)
  • GXP (various values)
  • MC Consumables (Cool Shot, Artillery, UAV, and Air Strike)
  • Cockpit Items (Standing MWO Beer Stein, Hanging 4 Leaf Clover, Mounted Green Lights, Standing Lumin Glass)
  • and 'Unlucky' Items, such as IS weaponry and Single Heat Sinks

Important info:
  • The Lucky Charms loot-bag will disappear on March 25th at 10:00 AM PDT / 5:00 PM UTC. Be sure to redeem all your chances prior to that end-time or they will be forfeit!
  • In the event that you do not redeem all of your loot-bag chances prior to the above deadline, Support Services will not be able to provide any retroactive rewards.
  • Premium Time acquired from this event will be activated automatically upon redemption.
  • The Lucky Charms event applies to both Solo and Group drops.
  • No opt-in required.

Woo, more stuff!

I know the dollar value is probably lower on the charms, but it's much more fun than the Pot o' Gold.

The posted dates for the Pot o'gold event was originally listed as ending Tuesday the 17th. It would be bad form if this was wrong the entire time and nothing was said to correct the oversight> I was counting on tonight to fatten the bank roll some more.

edit: thank you for clarification that we are still getting the PoG bonus until patch.

What I'm concerned about is my ability to track the PoG winnings. I'm pretty close to the max on some classes, and I don't want to go over and waste the time I have left. With the /tournament page showing an even that hasn't even started yet, I can't see when I should switch weight classes.

Edit: Looks like that first link is to the actual tracking page. I thought it was just to the announcement page to see the run dates to show that it was still in effect. Neat to see that you can track individual tournaments by ID instead of just whatever the active one is at mwomercs.com/tournament

Always happy to see this type of event in MWO. I much prefer the longer time limit on the event which makes it feel less grindy, and the rewards are worthwhile too.
