Lets the rewards
100x Enemy Kills GÇô Assault C/1-Series Dropsuit + C15-A Tactical Sniper Rifle (all equipment Caldari themed) x50
100x Installations Destroyed GÇô Logistics M/1-Series Dropsuit + BDR-8 Triage Repair Tool (all equipment is Minmatar themed) x50
100x Objective Hacks GÇô Scout G/1 Series Dropsuit + GLU-5 Tactical Assault Rifle (all equipment Gallente themed) x50
100x Enemy Kill Assists GÇô Prometheus class dropship x25
Achieve all of the above GÇô Falchion class HAV + 80GJ Stabilized Neutron Blaster + HT Linear Flux Stabilizer x100
My problem
100x Enemy Kills GÇô Assault C/1-Series Dropsuit + C15-A Tactical Sniper Rifle (all equipment Caldari themed) x50 -Didn't spec into both caldari assualt (I'm a minnie assault), haven't spec into sniper(to that level) (Useless)
100x Installations Destroyed GÇô Logistics M/1-Series Dropsuit + BDR-8 Triage Repair Tool (all equipment is Minmatar themed) x50 - I haven't spec to Minmatar logistic and their is no point in me to use the repair tool if I don't want to play support (Useless)
100x Objective Hacks GÇô Scout G/1 Series Dropsuit + GLU-5 Tactical Assault Rifle (all equipment Gallente themed) x50 - Skill into Minmatar scout, I can use to GLU-5 tactical assault rife, but I'm an automatic guy (Useless)
100x Enemy Kill Assists GÇô Prometheus class dropship x25 - My alt only skilled into assault dropship (Useless)
Achieve all of the above GÇô Falchion class HAV + 80GJ Stabilized Neutron Blaster + HT Linear Flux Stabilizer x100 - This would be awesome if MY ALT DIDN'T SPEC INTO GALLENTE ENFORCER (USELESS, USELESS,USLESS)
Come on CCP at least reward us with things we can use Like blueprints and huge isk rewards |

But it's OK as you will be able to sell them soon *cough*
The mere fact that Everyman and his dog will be selling them isn't going to affect the price at all. Honest guv'nor |

Back up: You skilled into the Vayu? That thing is ******* useless Anyways, yes, I wish they would give us a list of things to pick from for each challenge instead of the static awards. More choices=happier mercs. Especially when half the challenges are borderline impossible, like the installiation kills, because people will blow them up before being hacked (which is what I did in the first place before the event, especially the turrets. DS's can't fly with them there).
Peace, Godin |

Look at it this way. If they ever do another total retool or wipe/reset of items, you'll get alot of cash back for the 100 Falcions and their gear
And also maybe one day we can sell the gear back. Again, free money! |

Main thing is why couldn't they create some little counter? I think, THINK i'm good on all but hacks atm, luckily I have the day off, just gotta uppercut my wife, so I can game on.
But yes, I'd prefer the ISK, only thing I'd use there is the GLU. |

I'd rather see them pull another grand scale event like Caldari Prime. It so far has been the only event that really got all of the community involved and caring about the game..... no event since has held a candle to it because they are all stupid mini game events. |

We need something more along the lines of Caldari Prime where we can have an impact of the lore or Templar Manhunt where we are rewarded in ISK. |

What a ungrateful child, I am around 3 mill SP and can't use the dropship, tank or one of the suits but it's something for free so how about you stop being an ungrateful bunny and be thankful they are giving you something, let me guess, the 3x exp was bad for you also because you needed x5? |

He's not being ungrateful, he's just giving feedback that if CCP wants to do events they should find a better way to get everyone interested. |

Mm. No real bombast about the whole Mordu thing, no in-game announcement or reference of any kind to the fact that something's going on, the event itself translates into busywork to get... pretty standard equipment in a moderate quantity? If you can use it, cool. If you can't you won't even be able to try and flog it until up to half a year later.
The Falchions have a high flat ISK value but without vendor liquidation available and the fact the market will be flooded with them... hmm. They're also not a first choice for most HAV pilots.
Further issues: rewards don't seem that well tied to their necessary action. You a Logi and want Logi suits? Get to destroying installations, because Logis routinely use AV weapons in their single weapon slot.
No counter to chart progress bears repeating. Again, there is absolutely nothing to indicate that anything special is going on!
CCP have outdone themselves. |

Jump certain hoops and we'll give you free stuff is what it boils down to.
Thing is they don't tell you how many hoops you've jumped either. It's a minimalist non-event. |

I probably wont get enough installation kills unless neutrals count. Also, Im not sure when this event actually ends, and I havent played much this week.
Regardless....why are you bitching again? Its a CHALLENGE for a reason.
Im sorry, but ill take around 250 million isk in assets any day. Even selling at a fifth of that price, thats a cool 50 mil for doing what I do every day.

Was heartbroken when they liquidated my stuff. I don't even get assorted dropships, HAVs and LAVs in my salvage anymore...
Would disagree with it being a challenge. It's busywork. Challenge requires there to be a difficult objective with a good chance of failure if you don't step up your game.
It's one saving grace might be making people switch up their approach to play... on the flipside it'll also be diverting people away from playing for objectives, or as a team. The competition for assets is -with your own side-. |

You are upset about things that they addressed before the event. They said they knew they didn't have the tech to give the counters, but players wanted something to do. Can't have your cake and eat it too, friend. |

Can't have your cake and eat it too, friend. I'm not concerned about the event, singular, but events, plural.
CCP are exhibiting a poor grasp over how to handle events.
Black Eagles versus the, uh... Something Intelligence Agency? Stolen intel on unethical Gallente R&D? Kind of low key thing really, essentially a test for a lore conflict brought into Dust. Main thing taken away from it is the issue of how despite there being a choice presented you couldn't actually pick a side.
Caldari Prime... This one was actually important or rather could have been. Momentous, a preview of sorts for Dust's interaction with the EVE universe, mercenaries battling on the ground to determine whether the Gallente or Caldari claim the better foothold planetside. Except... same issue as it's predecessor. Make your choice of who to fight for, influence the outcome of the conflict! Just ignore the minor caveat that you can't actually pick which side to fight for.
These issues keep piling up. The Shiigeru crashing on Caldari Prime and the conflict on the surface could have been the preview for battling over districts and fighting a larger battle, giving the impression that, yes, you can see the shape of the larger picture CCP are going for come into view. A greater conflict and one with a sense of place: not fighting this isolated round of a match, fighting for this planet.
And they blew it.
It's not all over, not by half. That was a major turning point that is now lost forever, though. |

The event has taught people to not work together, forget game modes and get your event objectives before match objectives. I am even guilty of railing 100 turrets before I became any help to my teams. |

They can only give out whats in the game. I'd imagine when the full racial base set is in place they would give you the option to choose what races gear you get. Till then just wait till you can sell. Once the markets open up and level off , the random salvage will mean something. |
