Well got the secret challenge in my first match and it wasn't a good match so....

Did lots of spotting so might be linked to that.

Forgot to say I was in an ml/srm assassin, we lost and didn't overheat myself to death.

A couple questions to answer... I think...

A HeadlessChicken, on 31 March 2017 - 11:36 PM, said:

I don't get the ammo one. Do we have to pilot a mech using only ammo hardpoints and no energy weapons if they do?

This person has a good answer...

Just shoot all you ammo in enemy and get 200 with energy weapons. I think ac20 with 1-2 tons of ammo and 2 lpl will be good for this.

...but to be more concise, you can bring a Mech that has Energy Weapons. You are NOT restricted to "Ammo-based"-only designs. The only requirement is that, whatever design you bring, you must have at least one Ammo-requiring Weapon on the Mech that can be run out of Ammo, and that Weapon must run out of Ammo. I do recommend, however, only exhausting that Weapon's Ammo through the natural course of battle. Don't waste any Ammo, or you'll likely end up regretting it.

What was the Fools Warhorn for as just got that....

Nobody knows, everyone wants to know. Even after several pages on this thread, still nobody knows. I've got mine, but I don't know how. PGI isn't telling us, but I hope they'll be kind enough to state what it was after the Current Event ends... unless they want many angry people...

Thank you for this fun and unexpected event!

[The Unstoppable Puggernaut]

So, this is legit?

Sod it, I am well up for getting the Urbie out anyways !

[Lorne Malvo]

guys please check the date

[XX BURT XX]

Fine fun event, good reason to see funmechs in game GJ PGI, gonna loose some credits for my first urbie

[The Unstoppable Puggernaut]

Ahhhh that warhorn !!

I get how it works now

EDIT: Admittedly, I thought it was all a joke but... its not. Well done PGI you actually fooled me.

The warhorn works when you self destruct a part or die

Secret challenge: Play the game on 1st April?

[Aramuside]

First match in an urbie ... headshot after 2 volleys... hate this mech already.

[ZortPointNarf]

Secret item is very cool.

To get it could be:

• Kill an Urbie
  
• Kill an Urbie in an Urbie
  
• KMDD an Urbie
  
• KMDD an Urbie in an Urbie
  
• Solo Kill an Urbie
  
• Solo Kill an Urbie in an Urbie

I got a Solo Kill in an Urbie against an Urbie, with the additional KMDD against it, hence the inability to confirm what is needed, or if the Urbie was needed.
What I am sure of, is that you need to murderise an Urbie, possibly piloting an Urbie.

None of those as I didn't do any of them as far as I'm aware when I got it.

Well, this Event was better-coded than the last, and was therefore more enjoyable. I've got everything at this point, plus a few hours. Now I just want to know what the Secret Challenge's requirement was.

I do hope PGI does more Events with a Mech for a Grand Prize, though. And more WarHorns. And Supply Keys for Caches we already received. And (MC) too, as that's always good.

You can have energy weapons, it just matters that you run out of ammo for missiles and/or ballistics during the match.

[AyCaramba]

I also got it but im not sure what it was I actually died very fast in the game so I thought it could be related to that, because of april fools day ....

I was in a timber wolf and i definetly did not kill an urbie and i did not had most damage. Consider dying within the first minute of the match ...

[ShadowFire]

Nice little event PGI... Having fun, Thanks!

[Cyrilis]

got it...3rd match. I am quite sure the condition is:

be the first of your team (or in the match) to be killed.

nice idea, thanks PGI

[I cant want to]

in regards to the ammo questions, you only need to run out of 1 type of ammo

if you are carrying 2+ types of ammo, you do not need to run out of all of them

as far as i am aware, AMS ammo counts for this challenge, and a half tonne can go pretty quick with a lot of lurms about
