I'm guessing the clan variants of certain mechs, like the HIghlander IIC, do not count. At least, I can buy the Annis and the Grasshoppers now.

They would count as for the category that gives the warhorn payout, as being lights, mediums, heavies or assaults. That way people with clan only accounts can still get something out of the event without needing to degrade themselves using IS mechs.

51 Chassis...51000 dmg to do...OK lets start..... 10 days...K.

[Renzor the Red]

Being as this MW5 sale involves all IS mechs, I'm suspecting that the new game will eventually have an expansion pack involving the clans.

[LordNothing]

can we put fp on is vs is for the next 10 days?

[Mechwarrior Pizza]

dang it, a event I can't complete, unless I had like a billion C-Bills, like yesterday

[Valdarion Silarius]

For future events, could you please scale the reward requirements according to weight class? IE 4 KMDD in lights, 6 KMDD in mediums, 8 KMDD for heavies and 10 KMDD for assaults. My friend which I have been trying to convince to play MW:O with doesn't want to do these challenges, since I agree that getting 10 KMDD's with a light isn't worth 100 MC. Our last event was less difficult with better MC payouts.

It's getting 10 Kills across a spectrum of 11+ lights.

Exactly...the klll/kmdd requirements for each weight category are ridiculously, obnoxiously, obscenely easy for 100MC, a day of premium and a warhorn. given that its in any light mech over 10 days.

@Arnold: If you are playing with a friend, the solution is actually fairly simple. You both take a fast (and preferably at least one of you an ECM-capable) Mech, run and find a lonely foe and focus it down between you two. With that method, one of you will get the kill and / or KMDD. It should not take too many games to get to 10 for both of you. Good luck!

What? No champion, no hatomoto chi? NO CHARGER??!!

[Voice of Kerensky]

Bad event.

[Buenaventura]

While it sounded interesting, the differences in games needed to accumulate 1000 damage are too vast. I'd rather do 2/4/6/8 kill/kmdd for each chassis than trying to get these damage numbers.

Not doing that, that's excessive.

Thats 2 games per chassis for anyone who performs well. This is one of the least grindy events in a while.

Still not much of a challenge even thought its called one.

[Coffee Tears]

Reg - XX
Silver - XX +premium (champ)
gold - XX + premium (hero)

[Pz_DC]

51 000 dmg in 10 days, 5 100 dmg per day, if we will do 500 dmg per game it's, lets say, 10 games. One game - 15 min, so it's 150 min/ day... 2.5 hours of MWO per day for 10 days "is not a challenge" ?... You're joking, right?..

P.S. IMHO for most of MWO players it will takes 3+ hours per day to get those 51 000 dmg in 10 days ...

[ENOVA]

Will we see Marauder II in MW5? It's in the timeline, but not in the event

[Alan Hicks]

Long event to finish, those 10 days will come out handy

Why do you need for every chassis that exists? Most players are not collectors and will not even try all categories.

The average player here doesn't do 500 per game. More like 250 per game for damage and even that is being generous.
