When you mech junkies are taking a break from grinding this crap, should check out a episode of "Love Death + Robots" on netflix, its a bunch of shorts and one in particular called "Suits" is pretty nifty.

My goodness this looks like one heck of a big mountain to climb . I dont get an average 500 score every match but i am a loser and do have time . Can i get at least one grand prize . I think so . Can i get it twice for my second account ? I am not sure about that . Does it really matter ? Not really . A fully mastered Champ mech is no better than your cbill mechs .

Regardless the lootbag prizes are most appreciated .

Lets grind for a fortnite and see what happens .

I'm a bit confused, isn't the final reward a combination of earning loot bags from damage, assists and match score? Why are people so caught up on trying to get 50k damage in 18 days?

Done - 92 QP matches

Because if you wait till phase 3 opens, you may not have enough time to do all of them. And each phase is going to change the dynamics of the rounds, as people change their behaviour. AND the LRMageddon v10304.21 patch is coming on Wednesday. If you want to get good games, do them now. It's been a fun few days.

Now that I'm done, I'll do some Assault tanking for people still grinding through the 50k

Finished Phase 1 on this account around 4:30pm EST on the 16th, so before day 3 ended. Just started on the second account at 1am EST and after 2.5 hours its already over 7k.

I guess you guys playing ±8 hours a day that you done with it already! Well done
I hope PGI understand that not everyone have that much time or can play so many hours a day!

I played 3-4 hours a day from Thu till Sun to complete the challenge. It's about the build and consistency.

I get 600-1000 damage per game in my 55 ton Medium skirmishers. I tried Assaults, but they are feast or famine, and never hit the high I got in my skirmishers. SHD, WVR, HMN are where the fun is at. *cough* ATM27 build *cough*

I think that I can get it done with 2 hours a day playing, just need the hole given time!

It can be done in even less time than that if a player doesn't completely suck in terms of ability, tactics, mech lab skill and computer setup. If your idea of meta is an LRM80 fafnir without any backup weapons or even a tag laser, firing indirect from the back of the map using other people's locks, on a 17fps setup computer with a 250 ping and are only scoring 200 to 300 damage per match.. that's totally on you for failing to get Phase 1 of the event done in 18 days. If you're actively engaging the enemy with direct LOS fire around 400 meters or less with any other weapon on a 40fps double-digit ping setup and employing strike consumables properly then 500 to 1000 damage EVERY match brings you to 50k in a hurry.

My problem is because I currently average about 1.5 kills per match and typically end up in a close range brawl with several opponents at once, I get fewer assists than the LRM boat knuckle draggers in back who might hit every enemy player and yet kill none of them. My KDR this month is currently 1.49 on this account and even higher on my second one.

If I got the Marauder II from preordering Mechwarrior 5, will I still get my 25 free loot bags? I do not seem to be able to redeem them

[Drake Orion]

OK...OK. Where do I get my loot bags!?

I went to check it out as I had the same question. Turns out there are more redeem codes on the MW5 page, just have to log in and get them. The logical thing would be to have a single redeem when you purchased, but it is spread out.

There is a shortcut to this challenge you know.
Jump in Solaris D1 and you can easily break 500 damage in the time it takes to do one qp match. If more people jump in S7 faster you'll find a match and the faster you'll earn those rewards
Of course it doesn't have to be D1

Here mate: https://mwomercs.com...s?t=201903lucky

Main event page.

Cheers.

[Rodrigo Martinez]

Speaking about damage condition, it is harsh compared to prev. loot bag events but at least I can control it. But kill assist is totally out of my control and still I need 10 for one loot bag. By previous events I remember the kill assist was the biggest headache, not solo kills or comp. destruction, as should be in my opinion. PGI should lower it to 5, like they did with the damage requirement.

[The Man with the Plan]

They might change it right before it starts, so here's hoping

Everyone...

Watch out for the Incoming 2019-March-19 Gameplay Changes, due in a bit over 16 to 17 Hours...

MWO won't be the same after it, and the odds for many of enjoying Lucky Charms 2019 will fall sharply...
