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!!! 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. The best way to ensure that you will receive your bonus SP from this event is to make sure that your character(s) have a SP booster installed before DT (11:00 UTC) on Friday March 14th. So in 10 words or less do we activate our booster before or after friday downtime? 69 likes ha...ha.......................ha

Respect for being rather diligent in providing both feedback & a proposed solution. I would like to add 1 more query to "Full Circle" solidify your clarification: If you have an Active Booster that runs.....let's say 20 Seconds after Downtime on March 14 (Ex: 7AM EDT Downtime Saturday Morning, 7:30 AM EDT Reboot, 20 Seconds left on Actve Booster), or even Milliseconds, would that qualify to satisfy the Booster Bonus Conditions? Would the Booster Checkpoints you presented register the Initial/Highest Booster regardless of wether or not a Booster is active during each subsequent Checkpoint? Or will this probable collision nullify the Booster Bonus? I'm positive this will not affect me.....but I believe this line of questioning would indefinitely eliminate any further SP Queries from anyone who took the time to read before Posting. Then you are left only to the Respec Queries.....which I honestly support, regardless of my SP Flexibility, due to the severity of the alterations being made on all fronts. PS: FYI I propose a Full Respec (Only Skillbook ISK refunded), or an Auto-Infantry Respec with Optional Full Respec via Support Ticket.

You WANT to run ambush and die as much as you can because every clone killed ( ,, when you die depending on cause of death you have 30secs I think it is to be revived if you respawn after you die there goes a clone ) so pretty much every suit you lose counts as 1 clone. It is a coumunity event so its all dust players in total. Australian mercy worky.

Even better if you can sync up with the opposing team to organize execution demonstrations. Line up everyone against a wall and start shooting, but remember to bring uplinks so that you don't have to run to the wall from across the map.

I want as many of my fellow Mercs plugging away at each other as possible, and not everyone reads the forums. We will later today when the localization of the event message is ready. 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? As far as I know, activating a new booster takes over a currently active one. The older stops counting down until the newer runs out. Many people use this to extend the usefulness of Omegas (activate Omega, hit cap, activate 3/7 day regular, wait for cap reset, wait for regular expiry, hit cap on Omega again, rinse, repeat) No.
