    I don't know if it's related but... I kept getting that message on my jailbroken iPad, couldn't connect and check daily events. I can connect and play daily events on my non jailbroken iPhone though (different Apple IDs and gamecenter IDs.)

    Lol. That'll be why.

    (Although I'm playing on an unjail broken device but using the same game centre id)

    Have played all of 'em (though not yet today's).

    Reason I asked is because imo it points to something like skill - I've consistently hit the top 1% / 10% rewards. Apart from my first attempt, and yesterday :D

    Also a good way to get epic gear (for crafting or use), tbh. Top 1% is an epic crate.

    Hey, is there a method to get a high score in Daily Events?? Does the current wargear a player own have any effect?

    Have never been able to play any of the events.

    I've tried reinstalling the app an still not available. Think I've corrupted my game centre id by using a jail broken phone

    Very annoying

    Everyone plays with the same freeblade.

    The key - afaict (and I've mostly placed top 1% / top 10%) - is maintaining your multiplier.

    Key to this is keeping your killchain going.

    Key to this is (often) destructible scenery.

    I clearly failed on this completely in the jungle a day or two back - top 60% and just couldn't crack it. Tbh, I just can't find the destructibles in the jungle. In either events or normal play.

    I suspect the alternative is to string out your kills?! Completely unsure. In tech / city / "grand hall" levels, my approach has been scenery, though.

    On a related note; think I've found a (frustrating!) bug.

    Happened three times now.

    Finish event.

    Top 1%!!! Awesome. Epic goods incoming.

    Immediately - within seconds - switch to look at "ranked rewards" and find I'm top 10%.

    First time this happened, thought "crikey, someone was quick!" But replayed it (20 gold) - exactly the same!

    And I've just had the same again.

    Two screenshots lit. 30s apart. Same event. Same score.

    Not cool (!)

    (Though at least I do get my money / gold back :thumbs: )

    Anyone know if Wargear Rating has direct impact on anything?

    There's no question as to what's meant by; DPS, Ammo capacities, Critical modifiers, Reload times, etc.

    It's seems pretty obvious that Strength adds to the damage you do and Toughness lowers the damage you take.

    I'm coming across higher rated armor (WGR) that have much weaker attribute bonuses...

    If it has no direct effect on combat, I'll keep the +7 Toughness and get rid of the +1% critical.

    I've Googled for this a few times and haven't found much useful other than this thread.

    Is this legit? 20 gold for epic and possibly legendary crates? I got this after using the 2 free salvage. Any thoughts on this? The epic supply crate is priced at 400 each. Thats a big difference thou.

    Yep that's legit. You can get both the epic and legenday crate for a total of 60 gold. I'd go for it if I were you.

    Think it must be.

    Was puzzling this out, and realised they'd need c.100,000 entrants for 979 to've placed top 1%.

    Not sure if that's hugely ambitious or not :D this morning, that felt very plausible!

    This post inspired me to plough through a full range of supply crates this morning. 300 gold for one epic, one legendary. Basically.

    Which I prefer (in terms of value) to the epic supply drops.

    Will look out for days with fewer items :D

    I got that too, that the Salvage Team only has Rare/Very Rare left; but only once or twice so far. IF that shows up, go for it! Very well invested 20/40 Gold.

    Re: Daily Event
    Color me impressed! I only made it into the top 10% once. Most of the time I only get into the 60%, sometimes 25%.

    Do you have any tips?
    I figured out the following so far:
    Your score multiplier goes down again pretty fast. But if you don't have any enemy units around, and shoot destructible environment - like statues or pipes - it holds at the current level (e.g. x4) .

    UPDATE: Ah, just saw you posted on that already, thanks!
    Looks like I really have to work on my killchain/multiplier skills. Some of the scores - like 300+k yesterday, where the best I can get is just below 100k - look pretty insane to me.

    Stringing out kills might be worth trying. I tend to blast large groups of infantry with the secondary weapon. But naturally that kills them all in one go. Might be better to kill - pause - kill.

    Then again, some levels also have hordes of enemies who either run away *or* are at the periphery. Iirc, that was the case yesterday - and even though (I think) there was no bonus for %age killed, each one will nonetheless bring a score. Hard balance to strike, and I wonder if different weapons are better suited to alt approaches (the legendary crate I picked up this morning was a stubber. Worst. Legendary. Ever :D)

    I also wonder about execution bonuses.

    My tendency is to wipe out bigger creatures using ranged weaponry for a time / no hassle bonus; but, eg, a one-hit execution bonus with a *8 multiplier would land 8,000 additional points.

    Stubber is actually excellent for mowing down large amounts of infantry ;)
    I had a few stages (need to check which ones) where I got swarmed by several groups of 30+ infantry. Stubber would've been handy there...
    Also, higher grade Stubbers can even destroy artillery tanks with relative ease.

    I'm pretty sure for the top scores you need the melee executions with a high bonus.
    With 2 melee opponents, it's easily a difference of 10k-20k points, depending on multiplier.
    From what I've seen so far you cannot make up for those points with faster completion speed.
    But usually I do that too, just kill 'em with fire for less hassle :)

    For enemies at my sight's periphery:
    When I see something moving there, I usually just snap a Cannon shot in the general direction. Always clears out at least a few ;)

    [QUESTION] Forge: Forging Purple Items

    Forge again:
    If I figured it out correctly, you need at least 1 purple and 2 blue items in the forge slots to forge a purple item.

    Can anyone confirm?

    I use the wide AoE cannon - I've yet to run out in any serious way whilst using them overwhelmingly to target massed infantry. I've currently got a 175 legendary stubber; I honestly prefer my 150wg melta gun. Hard-nosed tank destruction, and also functional for picking off individual rocket men. With the stubber... I just feel as if I've got a single-purpose weapon (and even on infantry, it overheats pretty darned quickly).

    Guess I could replace the cannon with a thermal... Feels like a downgrade tho! Pitiful AoE, and I'm not coming across much that it'd add yet (particularly given a decent melta slags armour in no time flat).

    Fully agree, in general Melta as primary and AoE Cannon as secondary weapon, with Missile Launcher as Carapace, seems to be the best combination.

    Against mass infantry I sometimes run into the problem that my Melta overheats and/or I don't have enough shots left in the Cannon for the next armor biggie that comes around.

    Sidenote: Aside from the fact that the Melta rapidfires like it's on steroids, the weapons are pretty close to canon:
    Melta is a tankbuster, while Stubber-type weapons are anti-infantry. On bigger units (i.e. Titans or Heavy Tanks) you'd mount both and switch as needed. Just checked, and a few specific exceptions aside, canon Knights come with the 4 weapon mounts we see ingame. Some even seem to have only 3.
