I am up for this Challenge.

Light KMDs might be tough. What would be the most optimal Mech to get Light KMDs with?


something with srm's or lrms probably. A huggin with LRM5 or 10s and a range module could hit stuff out to 1300 meters.

I'm guessing that newbs can use the trial mechs and qualify for the awards, in weights they don't own ?

Feels like people are just going to log on with LRM Heavies and Assaults for the next 17 Days, Count me out.

You'd better count yourself back in. It isn't "Do a KMDD on Mech of <weight> class", which would have promoted use of LRM Heavy/Assault Mechs. It happens to be "Pilot a Mech of <weight> class and get a KMDD on some other Mech", which can (and probably will) require using builds WITHOUT the presence of LRMs. So, don't just throw in the freaking towel. Instead, grab yourself some AMS, ECM, and/or 'Radar Deprivation', and be ready to give others a disturbingly bad day. ;)

Oh, this doesn't look bad! Just a KMDD with each type of mech everyday for the next 18 days.

And it uses my idea of making a kill WITH the mech type instead of ON the mech type! So you have control now-thank you PGI!

This should be interesting. Posted Image

Is there any special reward if you completed all 85 challenges? From what I can tell from the description is that you need 40 completed challenges for 400 MC, 17 games over 80 score (1 per day) for max CBills and 12 games over 80 score (1 per day) for all 4 cockpit items.

If I'm right you need 40 completed challenges in order to get all the rewards?

It'd be nice if there were some grand reward (maybe a mech or similar) for completing all 85 challenges. Otherwise there is no need to go for all challenges Posted Image. Still its a great event Posted Image


For max C-bills you'll want to do all 5 challenges every day for 17 days. That will get you 8,075,000 C-bills if my math is correct.

Need help to understand the KMDD challenge - If I pilot only an Assult and made 5 KMDDs in one day, does it counts as earning 1 point or 5 points in the challenge?

One. You can get a maximum of 1 KMMD pt per class per day.

Looks like a nice long event! :) For those concerned about light and medium KMDDs - those should be much easier to achieve in scouting matches ;)

Not much to complain about this time as the event seems to be set up as such that regular gameplay can commence.

I like how this is structured! It'll be nice to quickly get the challenge out of the way for the day and get back to just normal play each day. Sweet.
