Read a few posts on Mordus' Challenge, wanted to briefly add my thoughts and experience.
Completion time was roughly 14 hours not including 2 hours of breaks, (running Ambush OMS).
-side goal was to reach 1000wp each game as much as posible to get the full sp possible
Bounced between three militia scout suits, one with swarm, one with AR and remote explosives, and one with AR drop uplink.
Played on the American servers, and ran squadless throughout the grind.
Personally, I had a blast completing this event. Many a day have a deployed into battle trying to reach 1000wp in an endless attempt to grind SP, but today... today I prove myself worthy of free goodies!
With a pen and paper, militia swarm, remote explosives, and a LAV i roam the maps waiting for turrets to fall, capturing and killing anything and everything in between.
Recommendation if completing all four challenges:
Kills: You will finish them before you probably get 20 turrets, so tally them at the end of the match with scoreboard until 100 if u want but there's no need.
Assists: For me, I actually completed this last, running around waiting for turrets and supply depots typically wont result in assist given the lack of blueberries. Grab a pen and paper and tally after each map using page two of match ending screens.
Objectives: Tally every time you see a +50 wp, I didn't count vehicles - superstition. It can be slow, but occasionally ignore the red dots and look for some stuff to hack.
Turrets: It sucks, we all know. It takes forever, and without a doubt will be the hardest to complete. if you dont have a forge gun or a tank, be ready for a grind because it will be one. Tally just like objectives when u see the +100 for turret kill
Final Thought: After playing this game in beta since May 2012, I'm feeling the burnout like many players from that era, but event game me a little spark of enjoyment and challenge. It made me forget about SP, being the only thing I really pay attention to currently. -I look forward to additional events that are similarly set up, giving players a little extra to focus on during a match.
Thanks CCP, I had fun -Cinder Integ |

I hope you didn't count suicide assists, neutral installation destructions and so on. |

Why would you not? CCP has not stated anything that would suggest neutral installation destruction do not count and that would not even make sense.
Count assists at the end of the match with the 2nd screen to tally valid ones. |

Nice. I'll aim for 120 in all cases just for insurance. I will also do this on my tank character so at least turret won't take me so long PS. will this work using a pencil? |

Vehicle hacks not counted - probably a good idea, but this sets me back a few.
Neutral installation destruction not counted - F this, not even trying anymore. 50x adv suits and 50x adv weapons is a goddamn trivial reward anyway, so if i'm not getting 100x falchions for doing it all I'm not going to bother tracking my hacks either. |

They should give the rewards as soon as you unlock them, this way you know which ones you've done. |

Best bet is using a FG to take out turrets beneath the enemy MCC and at the enemy ground base behind the redline.
Not convinced yellow installations are out of the running. Currently looking for verification one way or the other.
If CCP aren't going to give us a counter to work with they really ought to go the extra mile to eliminate -all- ambiguity.
Resecures not counting as a hack is also something to frown on. |

I completed the kills easy enough, but even with my focus on installation destruction I'm still only a third the way through the rest of the challenge after spending an entire evening on it. I've been running on US TZ skirmish servers mostly. I was a bit worried about completing in a week but now I now it's not too much of a problem. But, finishing in a single day? Damn. |

Haha, exactly. So much confidence in that statement. Here's where the sort of official response is at:

I bet they yell at each other a lot in the office.
