Finishing step 1 of the Emerald Griffin task. I've got to say I cannot keep this up. Was up until 1am grinding and now playing at my desk at work pretending to crunch numbers on a calculator. Although my xmas event spreadsheet from Flashahahh says i'm right on schedule

Haven't gotten past the magnum task, because for some reason pixonic just can't let me win 15 times. Some matches were extremely close, which ticks me off. I always fly past the beacon capping tasks and kill tasks, but for some reason the win tasks are like an anvil to the head.
I might petition to remove the win tasks, cause with them I can't get past the 5th reward in any event. Maybe replacing them with damage tasks is better, because that way it isn't based off of luck and whether your team is good or not.
I should be able to complete the magnum task for the second chain in one day though, because the 22nd is when school lets out for winter break. The second event chain for me is a lot more worth it, because I would never get to the top 4 prizes, so I feel like the leo (great for knifing), stalker (beacon capper) and raijin (beacon holder/support) are better than the first task.
I know that the griff and carnage are better than raijin and stalker, but I would never be able to get to the carnage for the 1st chain, so the 2nd chain is more rewarding for me.

Take it easy. Youre going to hurt yourself. Lol, it really hurts. Managed to finish Aphid and Trebuchet aswell. Working on the Griffin now. PIXONIC should give premium gear exclusively. In an event there shouldn't be rewards like bots that can be obtained with silver currency. An Orkan or a Carnage are great rewards for a grind. But grinding for a Natasha or a Griffin actually sucks major monkey balls. You are so right! I think it was either inspirace or xXrobotrippinXx who said this, but if they replaced the natty and leo with a zeus that would be so much better. Maybe they move it up to the 4th or 5th task and they move the griffin/stalker down to 2nd prize, or in the future whatever they have for the 4th/5th prize. This would motivate a lot more players to play, and for me that zeus is totally worth the grind. I say they either give us Carnage, raijin and rhino for the silver bots OR give us the /gary/gally. I would prefer this because most people don't want to play because it makes no sense to grind hard just for some crappy silver bots. Even if you are level 5 you it won't make sense because by the time you finish the magnum task you'd already be at the level where you can get natty/leo. That is if event tankers dont destroy you. Heck even a fujin or a gepard (for god's sake) would make better sense, because at least they are remotely useful.

IMHO impossible to complete

Trident 1/5 right now. I'm already scared of the later tasks...dude, what a freakin' grind. Really curious to see how far I can make it. Would be awesome to add a third Bulgasari to my hangar.

Same exact task list as the Halloween event and plenty of people finished. I could have easily had I not started 2 and a half days late. I ended up with both Scourges though. Trident 1/5 right now. I'm already scared of the later tasks...dude, what a freakin' grind. Really curious to see how far I can make it. Would be awesome to add a third Bulgasari to my hangar. If you’re on the Trident already, you will definitely be able to finish, provided you keep close to the same pace.

However, if you play about an hour or an hour and a half every day, you should be able to get to at least the ancile. IMHO, for me the griffin ancile and carnage will be the most tedious, just because if you sum up the amount of kills and beacons you have to get, it's a bit overwhelming. For example, killing 138 bots for the ancile. If you average around 3 kills per game (I think everyone reading this will probably have that) then it will take you 46 games to complete the task. If every battle lasts an average of 7 minutes, then you spend 322 minutes, or 5 hours, give or take 10 or 20 minutes. If you split this across a couple days and you play for an hour and a half every day, then it will take you 3.5 days to complete the kill task for ancile. This will vary, depending on if you have bad games, great games, or a winning streak of 10 battles where you killed 5 people. But its the gist of it. Kill tasks are probably most tedious, because people will kill steal you a lot. With win tasks just squad with some good players from your clan and you should get a decent amount of wins every day (to you grinding gods out there 5 hours is probably nothing). Remember kids, this is only the math! Luck/tankers (for lower league players) don't factor in here. Heck, it doesn't even matter if you win your games, just getting 3 kills a battle is enough. FORMULA (for those who are interested xD): 138/3(average kills)=48 48 x 7(average time it takes for a battle) = 322 322/60 = 5.3 (hours) 5.3/1.5 (1 and a half hours; time you play every day) = 3.57 The same would apply to calculating beacons, wins I haven't figured out yet, with the win percentages and all

LOL, I got through Natasha. Next game, I was in there like a demon, I was up to about 8 kills, then I realized. Wait. Don't I need beacons? 9 kills, 2 beacons. Ooops. Swapped out a Leo for my speedy little Cossack. Let the capping begin!
Funny thing, I won a Gareth in the 1000 key spin and thought "oh great". But it's actually quite a good capper with some firepower.

Just started the trident 1st task... 23 more friggin beacons! Running this hover is making it easier than prev events. Altho I pray I'm back to kills on 2nd task.
I'm close to my 1st shocktrain in components. So finish this event and finally I'll be able to dish back out some of that shocktrain love I've been getting in the back of the head.

Grinding through trebuchet 2 atm. Hope to get through this task tonite. Exactly where I’m at and trying to get it done tonight as well. On step 3, at the moment. Slow going. I don't know how people are already going through Griffin and Ancile and beyond. I thought I was doing good by getting through Aphid in a day and a half. And just as I predicted, I've played almost a dozen matches for Treb, and haven't won a single match. I'm putting it away for the night. My last match was a joke. On Yamantau, the lag was the worst I've seen it in a long time. It was like watching an old animated claymation program. It's painfully obvious that mail.ru isn't investing any of their profits on servers. Since I'm not feeling the love from MM, I'm packing it in. Maybe tomorrow I'll fare better.

Funny thing, I won a Gareth in the 1000 key spin and thought "oh great". But it's actually quite a good capper with some firepower. I love the Gareth, and he's a fantastic beacon capper. Unfortunately, he's also a great splash magnet. Pins and Tulus hit anywhere near him, and he's toast. I think the Pixies nerfed the Brit bots too much when it comes to splash. Also, their physical shields got nerfed, so Molots and Tempests tear through them as if they're paper from almost 800 meters away. For the capping tasks, I'm tempted to dress my Gary up like a Cossack: with ECU's wherever they'll fit. "Knights of the Round Table. I have an announcement. Due to budget cuts, the King has ordered that your steel shields be redesigned. Instead of being three layers thick, henceforth they will be only one layer thick. Look at the bright side, my lords. They'll be so much lighter as you carry them in to battle."

I'm at the Treb task in my Android tablet.
I got the Aphid at the same time that I finished saving for the Scourge and bought it with wsp. Its fun using two aphids now on my Natty and Scourge on a Griffin.
On my Kindle Fire Im at the Natasha/skin event. Im spending most of My Playing Time on the Android account. Its hangar needs more help. I aim to get the Carnage. More would be good if course. ;-)

I won't participate at all. At IOS Expert you're playing against 3*Shocktrain and what not and tanking down for the event? Hey, didn't we all agree that tanking hurts the game? Guess the tone has changed here quite a bit, lately.
The truth is: without tanking or otherwise manipulating the game, you can't complete the event tasks in time.

About to start Ancile.
It took me almost 4 hours to finish the trident tasks. I may be in trouble....

Definitely NOT impossible. Same exact task list as the Halloween event and plenty of people finished. I could have easily had I not started 2 and a half days late. I ended up with both Scourges though. I agree it can be done. I finished Halloween and I plan to finish this one Was there more time allotted for the Halloween event?
