Update 10.5.0: The Gradivus Dilemma

[Mootski]

if u supported both factions in equal, you'll have 0 pts.

50 grineer + 50 corpus = 0 pts.

51 grineer + 50 corpus = 1 grineer pts.

50 grineer + 51 corpus = 1 corpus pts.

so you'll have to side a faction and stick to it till the game ends, if you wanted to have those end rewards... if the faction you sided wins...

hope this help thanks. (  really like to have that detron hand cannon thats why i decided to join corpus... credits in exchange of resources that the grineer rewards) sigh*

 

But that's not what the OP says. It says you have to complete 100 missions and to win the potatoed gun you have to have supported the winning side. It clearly says "supporting" means doing more missions for them than against and 51 is more than 49, you could do 70-30 or 80-20 just so long as it's more for than against.

 

The only thing it says about eroding your score seems to only apply to battle pay for individual missions. I agree it could be read more than one way so some official clarification would be helpful.

Having a lot of crashing issues when I try to cross from the Grineer tileset to the Corpus tileset. Really hindering me getting the 100 missions!!!

[Lers]

100 missions... oh dear.

 

Time to put on the grinding pants.

[Maslofski]

F*** gennier, corpus atleast seem to be clean, and have @(*()$ birdbots

i am completley loving this game but still very new to it 

[Wahooo]

In the past if you had an open weapon slot it would get used by gift weapons that were supposed to come with their own.  Does anyone know if that has been fixed or should I used up the last two weapon slots I have before the end of the event?

[Brimir]

This sucks. Give us the rewards from the faction we actually supported; not the one which won...

Even if you supported the loser, you still get a blueprint. Reread the event details. 

[Sanniya]

You obviously didn't learn from last time where people spent too much time getting nothing because it ends when it ends.

Last event Strun Waith was added for me in it's own weapon slot and I had several left open. So it seems to work as intended now.

Yes but you get the BP from the WINNERS weapon, not the one you supported, that is what a lot of the community has a problem with (understandably IMHO)

 

Currently it's:

 

Corpus win the war -> we ALL get the Detron, the Corpus supporters get theirs imediately, with a catalyst + slot, the rest get's the BP.

Grineer win the war -> The same as above but with the Brakk.

 

It would appease many if it was:

 

Corpus win the war -> Corpus supporters get the Detron (imediately+catalyst+slot), Grineer supporters get the Brakk BP.

Grineer win the war -> Same as above just the other way around.

 

Then again, judging from this thread it seems 2/3 of the community still haven't understood any of the rules/rewards, so who cares XD.

Nice but can we have a counter for the number of game play up to now ?

Because I do not know how many game I did today.

[Raze4573]

Plot wise amazing event. Rule wise confusing. Reward wise, horrible.
People that want Grineer stuff will end up with Corpus crap against their will and other way around.
Unless we get BP's to both pistol AND melee of the side we pick.
Rather pointless to grind tons of missions just to hear in the end "Well you picked the wrong side so you get nothing nice, now beat it."

[Damaru00]

So, I completed the 5th mission in a row for Grineer. After I finished, the conflict on Grav was resolved, and I didn't get a catalyst.

 

Feeling robbed.

i know how you feel, same thing happened to me. :(

[Phactor]

will the event cover all of Mars´s missions?
and if i complete 100 missions will i get both weapon rewards(machete and hand gun)?

[Raze4573]

100 missions unlock the Tier 3 rewards. Do 50/50 and then just pick the winning side to get their stuff. Pretty much what YOU get is determined by the whole Warframe community in the end. Which sucks.

[Lesserli]

So the best tactic is:

Play 50 Corpus missions and 50 Grineer missions. Play a last game for the faction that will win the war.

Criteria 1: You completed at least 100 missions to be able to get a hand-cannon

Criteria 2: You completed more missions for the winning side (51/50 or 50/51) - "you did more missions for them, than against them"

 

Is that right?

[Raze4573]

Currently thats the best tactic to secure Tier 3 rewards and be able to benefit from all the rewards, even if its not the side you favored.

[Boatsniper]

I'm not playing 100 damn missions of this just to get a theoretical 50/50 chance of getting or not getting two free weapon slots.

Did Arid Fear not teach you anything?

[TheProphetOfProfit]

Awesome! Now just fight on Grineer's side because they have better rewards! Go Dogs, go!!!!!

[Phactor]

100 missions unlock the Tier 3 rewards. 

yeah, but will it unlock the tier 2 reward aswell? and get both the melee and the gun

Look under your profile and it'll tell you the number of games you played in the event

It's been like 10 pages, re-linking for posterity:

GRADIVUS EVENT: WHAT DO?

[Froh]

This event is perfect. The reward system is indeed smart. Everyones ends with the same weapons at the end so no one can complain that the other weapon is more powerful.

[BPoole]

100 missions for tier 3 rewards? :(
