thing is, if I can complete phase 1 in 17 matches, needing only 1 game per mech (2 for the spider xD), you should easily be able to do it in 17 days
and if you're not, remember: events aren't necessarily made for everybody to be able to grab everything, just because MWO's events have been like that for a long time, doesn't mean they always will be
those matches were in a group, easiest way to secure wins, if you want to do it that way too DV, hit me up on discord (TheUltimateGhost#1964), I'd be up for some games

The word you are looking for is skill.
Well, no it´s not. Yes i am TIER 1 (whatever that means in a PSR system managed by PGI).
The win depends on your team. If i already got my kill/KMDD i do the best i can with the trial mech.
And for the kill/KMDD. What´s so hard on focusing 1 enemy mech? Either you kill it yourself or someone else kills it and you get the KMDD, challenge complete.
I understand that there is a difference in skill in every game. We had events way more harder to complete. So yes, i don´t understand how someone can complain about these extremely easy challenges.

@D V Devnull: Sometimes things just refuse to work out. Since this is a newer account and I only had one match in the Phoenix Hawk before the event began, I could easily check this... It took me TWENTY tries to win... while I had already scored a kill by game three... I really hope my main account is luckier. For comparison, Battlemaster won by game two. Next up is Highlander and then I will swap to my main account to see, if I have enough luck to get the 16 wins I need for the main awards, not even going to try to grind the 32 kills / KMDDs, I am not good / lucky enough for that in the limited time I have available.
Okay... THAT'S IT... All three of you have gone and made me headache-level angry.
Although, I'm going to have to *facepalm* at myself too... It seems my last post missed a vital detail worth telling, even though I thought that I had, and I do apologize for that.
To give all of you (
particularly , whom I apparently deduced the Tier of correctly) a rough idea, it's
much less a matter of Kill/KMDD needed. In this department, it happens that I have 15 of the 16 that are needed done, with the TBR-C(C) Trial (
because I don't own that Chassis's Variant myself) being the final. I never thought one lousy 'Iconic Mech' could be such a pain to do anything with. Danged bloody TimberWolf feels weaker than it did back in the "MechWarrior 2&3" games, that's for sure.
That said, it's
far more that I need to get the Win/Victory for a total of
SIX of the Mechs across
both of those Tech Bases, and not the other way around. Worse, most of the Win/Victory that I happen to need is on the Clan side of things. It's a "2 I.S., 4 Clan" remain for me, and
anything but easy due to issues that fly well beyond my control. To quote myself from earlier, in order to get the point across, my limitation here is...

Now, topple on that the constant issue of PUGs that would rather function like... well... let's just honestly say they're "Uncommunicative, Untrustable, Unherdable, Uncooperative, Nascaring, Potato-Brained Cats" in terms of behavior during most of the rounds that I've been in... and then add to it that the MatchMaker really seems to enjoy making me suffer.
...and then you understand more in why I would be seeking for an extension to the Event, even if no more than just until "August 28th, 2020 @ 17:00 PDT (August 29th, 2020 @ 00:00 UTC)" for when it would end. Can a measly FOUR (4) Days honestly be too freaking much to ask?!?!? I would like to think not, and I can obviously see that
ERSmurf (
a.k.a. ERescue, right?) could also use the kindness/blessing/help/assistance/<
choose-your-own-phrase> of more time being added! Sadly, being in a Group
absolutely will not fix other people being mindless and forcing me to lose the Match along with them. If 7+ PUGs want to drag down a Group, they will... and unfortunately, there's
nothing that being in a Group can do about that, directly because there's
NO Queue Separation to speak of anymore.
Oh, that reminds me...
TheUltimateGhost, thanks to my ISP (
and who knows what else), my system is currently rendered unable to use Discord at all. The problematic Web Version doesn't work for me, and the Downloadable Client is not accessible to me. So nobody should expect to see me on there, ever. If my name should start showing up on Discord, and I don't confirm that's me via here on MWO somehow, then you'll know it's an impostor who's rudely posing as me.
ERSmurf (
a.k.a. ERescue, right?), I wish you Good Luck on getting those 32 Win/Victory across your Two Accounts. You've got one heck of a difficult slope to mount there.
In looking at your situation, I suppose that I should probably consider myself minorly lucky in the regard of only having this singular self-created account, and having made no other. Right now, it might be the only reason I reach 100% Completion, alongside one hellish heaping of luck.

It's not as much personal skill that limits me getting Win/Victory, as it is Uncooperative Teams happen to." Devnull

I am not going to stress. I have failed so many dozens of challenges over the years. As for the current ones, ERSmurf account now has the two main rewards, I got super lucky with the Battlemaster and Highlander to finish. Of the smaller ones I think I got something like five total. I am going to play a few games on this main account now and see how things develop.
