The clone kill milestones are the following:

- For 500,000 clones destroyed, all active players will receive 500,000 skill points
- For 750,000 clones destroyed, all active players will receive 750,000 skill points
- For 1,000,000 clones destroyed, all active players will receive 1,000,000 skill points
Additional event info
- Only the total number of clones destroyed during the event will be counted, not the number of kills
- Clone kills by friendly fire will not be counted
- Active players characters in this case means any player characters that have logged in during event times and play at least 10 battles
- Active skill boosters will grant bonus skill points earned in this event GÇô in order to receive the bonus you must:
- Have a character that has an active skill booster installed on the first day of the event i.e. after downtime on March 14 in order to qualify for the bonus
- The length of the booster does not affect the amount of skill point bonus applied i.e. as long as you have an active skill booster of any type installed on your character after downtime on March 14, your character will receive the full bonus from the skill booster for this event

To answer a few questions:
Yes Omega boosters will work. We'll try and tweet out some running totals over the weekend for the total number of clones killed.
And before anyone panics, don't take this as an indication as to whether or not we're providing a respec with Uprising 1.8.

Now, if you respawn does it count as destroyed? Or must you shoot the clone until terminated? Oh and, if I activate a 1 day booster, do I get the extra sp if I activate it day 1? Bump, new page, very serious question...
As per the additional info:

So as long as you have a booster installed after DT on the 14th of March, you're all good.

Entire event, but I would still recommend you keep playing to help hit that one million mark.

Omegas will give you a possibility of an extra 1,000,000 sp (2 million total), while regular active boosters will give +500,000 (1.5 million total)?
Correct.
And as for questions about what counts as a "kill", if the clone reserve number goes down, that's a clone death. So yes, killing someone without terminating the clone and then having them respawn counts but killing them and then them getting revived does not.

[quote=Ydubbs81 RND]Does clone lost in PC battles count?
I'm pretty sure that they do as we made it actual clones lost in the match (which means if you only kill a single clone in a match, you only add one to the total) but I'll have to double check.
