Aure7 Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 so if I do not destroy them in order I will be stuck with the same difficulty? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazyCatLad Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 I thought you just keep playing and as the missions get harder, the more points you get. 6 7 8 9 10 11 ...those are my points so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rutell Posted June 20, 2014 Author Share Posted June 20, 2014 http://imgur.com/or82USl this is a table depicting the runs I did in the event (yes it was solo, that's your best bet to finish this fast as other ppl slow you down. *(yellow columns are hives that have been completed multiple times (by order) green is completed once and red is where a new type of node appeared) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darzk Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 (edited) The simpler way to think of it is that you need to get a Gas, Magnetic, and Cold hive, and have a total score of more than 400 average per person on the team. I'm unsure if dying or failing to reach extract with the rest of the team affects the score. In order to get G/M/C hives to spawn you need to have a decently high score (you can get them before 400 tho).

BabyKurama Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 So how do you know wish one is 1st, 2nd and 3rd, is it in the way you run or is it random? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frostosti Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 i played until i suddenly had it got 41-41 and next round suddenly 48, while in total only just above 300 points comes with a potato too :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaftMeat Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 There is some RNG involved (when isn't there?) but eventually your average score will be high enough to go over 48. Took me 4 hours running with the same squad of 4, but eventually we got it. tl;dr answer: Just keep playing over and over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rutell Posted June 20, 2014 Author Share Posted June 20, 2014 So how do you know wish one is 1st, 2nd and 3rd, is it in the way you run or is it random?

The way you destroy them if you destroy the gas hive first then it is first and if you destroy it last its 3rd .... i don't quite get your question Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AM-Bunny Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 I thought you just keep playing and as the missions get harder, the more points you get. 6 7 8 9 10 11 ...those are my points so far. I kept increasing too. Only did solo runs so I wouldn't have anyone "dragging me down". Made it up to 41, then my next run was at 39, then my next 45, then my next 43, then my last was 49. So it starts to wobble up and down, but if you keep doing them you'll definitely get there eventually, because as you complete more, the difficulty will increase, and even if you do them "in the wrong order" you'll still get more points than you need because of the difficulty.

-HAKUNA-YOUR-TATAS- Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 I played these to get Prova Vandal with 2 friends that aren't as active as they were before. We all had allot of fun doing them. A bit grind-ey, but a good kind of grind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bit grind-ey, but a good kind of grind. It *was* a bit grindy, but I still managed to do it on the first day. I was really afraid when I first heard about it that it would be Gravidus MK2. Plus, IMO that's better than Tethra where you did one run and were done X_X Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tulzscha Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 I have 67 points but didnt get prova vandal? Keep in mind that you have to get at least 48 points in a single run to get the Prova Vandal, not total points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gimpenstein Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 This point system seems pretty broken. I've killed tumors in all sorts of patterns, solo, multi, 2 players, etc. and combining this complete randomness (maxing out at 38 points). I'm starting to think the points are where the RNG comes in to play... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gimpenstein Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 Ermahgerd! 39 that time -.- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sloan441 Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 Run it solo. Run with the flow of the map. Somewhere around 400 total points, you'll get your 48 best run. A few dozen runs total perhaps--solo. I only ran a random group once and it illustrated very clearly that you'd better do this on your own if you wanted to complete the event in any sort of timely matter.
