I'm underwhelmed by this event.
The double cap is good, but only doubling SP gained from WP makes it one hell of a grind. The extra 5k isk for every kill is a nice little bump though.
But my primary gripe is with an extra 50sp for every kill. That's nothing. A negligible amount. If you score 20 kills in a match that's 1000sp. WOW!!!
That means the bonus SP cap is for 10,000 kills. A year into release and I only have about 50,000 kills. So CCP can't really be expecting me to do more than two months' worth of killing in one week, can they?
I guess any event is better than none. But this is not exactly exciting.
No.

They just add more SP on to the end of what you get from the match based on a percentage. They have nothing to do with the cap.

Also the only Origin sutis are an Assault C-1 and Logistics M-1. Just as CCP started doing better events, they revert back to trash events. Definitely not going to pay any attention to it. I'll play as per usual. Maybe I'll cap, maybe (most likely) I won't.
Amarr are the good guys.

I think he's talking about the Origin dropsuits that will double your kill rewards when used.
I didn't mention them in the OP because unless you're someone who already buys Aur equipment, they're really not worth it for this event.

Its another SP clone boring ass event with no context.
If I didn't bother with the recent 5x SP week......why the hell would this event turn my head...... now if someone told me that Caldari Space was under attack by Gurista's pirates or Sansha's Nation I would head off right this minute, PM the Admirality about the situation, and be ready to do some Anti Pirate Combat.......
But for 3x SP....... I barely batted and eyelash.

Infantry kills have a seperate cap Eh I'm pretty sure the pay to win only really amounts to "they might be able to cap possibly while the rest of us won't"? But it's not a different cap, that's for sure. Just helps people get there faster. |

What are you talking about?
The cap is only doubled, meaning it's been raised to just 500,000. but the WP earned from each battle is also doubled, as well as kills reward double SP. it might take a smidge longer, but not much. I think you misunderstood the announcement.
Also, in order to get the 10m ISK reward, you only need 2,000 kills, which I usually get if I'm active each day of the week.
whatever though. to each his own, just.. before you make decisions like this, remember, check your math, and also, realize it's still free SP. personally, I'm wondering why they are giving us all this bonus SP the past month or two. In the past couple months, i've earned like.. an extra 3-5m SP or something.
anyway, I could understand if your excuse was you're burnt out on this game, but with Fanfest so close, and new stuff sure to be announced, i'm glad I'll have over 3m SP saved up. :) |

A doubled cap is 380,800 sp Mathboy.
The bonus from kills is separate. Capped at 500,000 sp. That's explicit in the post you've linked. So I guess I can call you Englishboy too.

To be honest: You can either do good events, or no events at all (use the time to fix the fking game instead).
