Million Clone Challenge
Throughout the weekend of March 14-17, should the total number of clones destroyed in New Eden reach 1 million, everyone shall receive 1 million skill points! The details for this event are:

When: The Million Clone Challenge runs from March 14 through 17 from downtime to downtime.
Objectives: During this period, the total number of mercenary clones destroyed by the player community will be tallied and for each milestone achieved, active player characters will be rewarded with commensurate skill points. The clone kill milestones are the following:

For 250,000 clones destroyed, all active players will receive 250,000 skill points
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

But do we get a respec too?

If you think you are helping by AFKing you are mistaken. Trust me, for all those AFKing, I'm losing probably enough clones for all of them already That being said, I'm looking forward to taking my young alties for a ride to get some sp in their pockets Minmatar Logisis \| Heavy lover.

Do revived mercs not count as a "downed" clone? Or do they just have to lose all health to count? Minmatar Logisis \| Heavy lover. Come get some badass Band-Aids from this chick

So yes, killing someone without terminating the clone and then having them respawn counts but killing them and then them getting revived does not. puts needles away into gear bag ok then. that being said, will omega boosters be available to buy again. I would definitely chip in the money for that Minmatar Logisis \| Heavy lover. Come get some badass Band-Aids from this chick

Not all, but some. I won't say your situation is specific but I've had to leave a lot of guys to bleed out because I couldn't save them due to cross fire or other threats. Even heavies.

That way if we manage to kill 999,999 clones we aren't stuck only getting 750,000 skill points. That also makes it easier if for some reason we get 1,009,468 kills we will get the same in skill points. Just a suggestion. Nah, we need the pressure to be on. That way we are motivated.

Not anytime. They stated that they will check after downtime and again 6 hours after. so as long as your booster is active anytime WITHIN that window, you should be fine.
