Operation Mauler
It's time for the heavies to make their power known on the battlefield! From February 19th to March 5th, players can participate in Operation Mauler, where heavy suit users will be pitted against those who stick to the lighter suits to prove their skills. This event will run across all contract types.

Wear a Basic Heavy or Sentinel dropsuit and score kills with heavy weapons to earn bonus SP and extra weapons to continue your destructive rampage! For every kill you make with a HMG or Forge Gun, you'll earn extra 500 SP (up to a cap of 500k SP), plus one Prototype AUR version of the weapon you used (up to a total of 300). Plus, if you kill a vehicle, you'll earn double the WP earned for the kill as bonus SP (up to a cap of 250k SP). That means there's a potential total of 750000 bonus SP to be earned!

But life as a heavy isn't all tank kills and bonus SP. Because anyone who scores a kill against a player wearing a Basic Heavy or Sentinel suit will earn bonus 250 bonus SP (up to the same 500k SP cap) plus an ISK bounty based on the tier of the dropsuit (capped at 10 million ISK).

Militia GÇô 2000 ISK
Standard GÇô 10000 ISK
Advanced GÇô 25000 ISK
Prototype GÇô 50000 ISK

So, I have some questions.
How much point I can get when I kill a vehicle? Is it includes only vehicle destroying point(for example:if I killed a tank, I get 150*2=300SP as bonus.) or includes killing the driver(it adds 50*2=100 points)?
And can't I get the SP if I use AV grenades, swarms, or so?
The other question is about killing heavy suits.Can I get SP as bonus,when I kill the heavys while I use medium or light suits,or using light weapons?

(Excuse me for my poor English, but many japanese mercs are waiting the answer.)

For killing a vehicle in a heavy suit with a Forge Gun you will get double the SP and double the driver kill. We are looking into if counting passenger kill is possible.

Only vehicle kills with the Forge Gun count or HMG (on LAV for example) will receive double SP. However, you can use AV grenades or swarm launcher to weaken the vehicles first.

Yes on the last question you get the kill heavy suit SP reward. However, if you kill a heavy suit with a HMG then you will get credit for both objectives i.e. kill bonus with HMG and kill bonus for the heavy.

XxGhazbaranxX The New Age Outlaws WINMATAR. 1024	Posted - 2014.02.15 11:42:00 - [1] - Quote Hello, As you may know there is going to be a heavy event where you can get bonus SP by killing people with your heavy and a heavy weapon. You get an extra 500sp per kill up to 500K sp. Doing the math we have the following numbers TL;DR GOALS EACH DAY Kill 67 poeple per day using a heavy suit with a heavy weapon or kill 134 poeple that are using heavy suits per day (Or any combination of the two) About 16 LAV-¦s, including driver and using a heavy weapon, per day. **I only gave the LAV number because It is the highest of the three; tanks, dropships and LAV-¦s. total 750k possible extra SP for the event. 500k for the infantry part and 250k for the vehicle part INFANTRY KILLS USING HEAVY SUIT AND HEAVY WEAPON (Sorry, no fake heavies with Rail Rifles or Combat rifles) 1,000 kills / 15 days equals 67 kills per day... That is the magical number to get the full bonus of the event for kills on infantry 500,000 / 500 equals 1,000 kills. Any heavy suit wielding any heavy weapon counts towards the bonus by killing someone using a heavy suit with a heavy weapon CCP Cmdr Wang wrote:* Evolution-7 wrote: Do FW amarr heavies count? Do FW minmatar HMGs count? Do dren/templar heavies count? If the dropsuit can fit a heavy weapon then it counts. If the heavy weapon you are using on the heavy suit is a HMG or a Forge Gun then it counts. KILLING HEAVIES If you prefer only killing heavies you will need to kill 134 heavies a day to get the max bonus ( COUNTS FROM THE SAME 500K POOL) VEHICLES killing vehicles gives double the warpoints per kill up to a max 250k sp bonus for the event. The kill will include vehicle Plus Driver Must be with a heavy weapon CCP Cmdr Wang wrote:** For killing a vehicle in a heavy suit with a Forge Gun you will get double the SP and double the driver kill.

If any of the information is wrong please correct me so I can fix the post to reflect the correct numbers Plasma Cannon Advocate
