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

They'll eventually learn to give up waiting (hopefully, for the event only). Seems pretty cruel but effective.

Having a booster active will count towards additional SP, so you will be rewarded with x1.5 or x2 bonus, but are not required to receive bonus SP from the event. Knowledge is power

Does that count toward the total, as it's technically not a friendly fire kill or suicide, or does it actually have to be a player killing another player for this to count? Purifier. First Class.

First one? Last one activated? Will it just use the highest one? If ones already active before downtime Friday will it take priority? I ask because this is the kind of thing I could see getting screwed up. Ion pistol in 1.8? Really, is that it? When is that? SoonGäó514 "No blue tags make Tallen go crazy.

Sounds great.... still curious what would happen if I activated an Omega booster over a regular booster after downtime on Friday. Would I get x2 or x1.5? Ion pistol in 1.8? Really, is that it?

SirManBoy Molon Labe. General Tso's Alliance 427	Posted - 2014.03.11 04:37:00 - [146] - Quote I'm a bit confused about the booster issue. I currently have a 30 day active booster on, but I plan on purchasing an Omega booster to maximize my SP gains for the event. How can I be sure that you'll recognize my Omega booster rather than my standard active booster that's already running? Do I need to start the Omega booster prior to downtime on the 14th? Will starting it after be okay? If it's fine to start it after downtime, what would happen if I forget to activate it during my first match on the 14th? Would I be screwed, making only 1.5x SP instead 2.0x SP for the entire event? Please give us explicit details on how to ensure that we have absolutely no problems getting the most from this event with our boosters. Thank you!!!

Please give us explicit details on how to ensure that we have absolutely no problems getting the most from this event with our boosters. Thank you!!! Here is our plan to approach this issue: We will look at what kind of booster you have right after Friday's DT is over on the 14th and that is the booster bonus you will receive. There will be edge cases like the one you pointed out. To mitigate this, we will take another look at character boosters installed later in the day (currently, 6 hours after DT on Friday) to see if the booster has been changed. We will take the higher bonus from the boosters when calculating your SP bonus from this event, i.e. if you had an Omega booster and a regular booster installed on Friday, we will give you the bonus from the Omega booster. We could do a third check at 11pm UTC on Friday to catch as many edge cases as possible as well. Let me know your thoughts.

We will be updating the number of clones destroyed daily via social media (Facebook and Twitter) as well as this thread. And we will update the message to let players know where to go for the updates.
