Hey Everyone!

The first Community Live Event is now available to play!

Everyone needs to work together to unlock the boss. You do that by playing the three different difficulties and beating those single ship encounters. When enough ships for Easy, Medium and Hard have been defeated the three bosses become available for a period of time.

Fight those bosses, in a multi-wave encounter, in order to have a chance to earn the event-specific loot. You'll likely need to fight the boss several times.

After a period of time (currently set to an hour I think), the boss locks and the community will need to unlock them again.

Would love to hear your feedback!

Cheers!

I got both the Very Rare and Legendary versions after only one try each :?

Very fun event. I'd be interested in seeing a running a gauntlet type version of this, where there is no limit to the number of waves, and each wave gets successively more powerful. There wouldn't necessarily have to be any reward given, just more for the challenge.

I like the waves. I also won the very rare and legendary. The Sd needs to be harder. My heavy cruiser had more hull points had it.

A request for clarification.

Does that mean that all three bosses will unlock only at the same time?

OK, answered my own question. Yes they only unlock at the same time.

On a side note, has anybody else been noticing some bugs in the loot pods on this live event? Not in the boss battle, but in the single fights, I have been getting components of different colors than the cargo pods, including blue components in green pods.

I've been getting componants whose colours don't match the pods, but since I normally sell them, it isn't much of an issue to me.

And I got the laser thing on hard on my first run-through. Whoooot!
Now to get the medium and easy so I can chuck my boosters for the lasers...

Would that work better? I thought the boosters allowed you to engage more targets....

Since the Event rewards ARE boosters as well as laser chargers, it still allows me to hit the max number of targets while still getting good recharge rates.

Heck, I've already sold off one booster and still have power to spare.
