Planet Calypso News: The Core - Robot Mayhem #3

Discussion in 'Planet Calypso' started by EP-Newsbot, Feb 25, 2015.

  1. Recent intelligence indicates that the robots may have located another RX cache on Eudoria. Activity in the Hadesheim Crater indicates that the robots are currently preparing a major excavation, which gives us little time to prepare a proper response.

    The teleportation pods used to enter the Core previously have been in secure storage since the last expedition, safely out of range of any potential self-destruct trigger signals. The robots had found ways to circumvent our jammers, but Sgt. Quintana reassures me that his team at Minopolis has been able to upgrade the jamming devices in such a way that they should provide at least a few days of access to the Core once again.

    Since time is short, CDF staff will require assistance to accomplish the necessary objectives in time to prevent robot access to the RX caches. Once again, we turn to the brave colonists of Calypso for assistance. Similar to earlier campaigns, rewards are being offered by the CDF for the salvage of Robot Data Storage Units from the Core.

    The DSU recovery effort will begin on Friday, February 27. Brave colonists wishing the enlist in the effort should report to Sgt. Quintana’s EST dropship located in Minopolis.

    Good luck out there!

    There are also reports of several powerful Warlock-class robot bosses inside The Core. Colonists are urged to be prepared for aggressive new offensive tactics from these augmented Warlocks.

    Scoring
    The following point system has been created to track the retrieval of Robot Data Storage Units (DSU):

    • Robot DSU Class 1 (1 point)
    • Robot DSU Class 2 (5 points)
    • Robot DSU Class 3 (10 points)
    • Robot DSU Class 4 (20 points)
    • Robot DSU Class 5 (50 points)
    • Robot DSU Class 6 (100 points)
    • Robot DSU Class 7 (500 points)
    • Robot DSU Class 8 (1000 points)
    • Robot DSU Class 9 (5000 points)

    Your event score will be updated automatically each time one of the Data Storage Units is recovered.

    Final event scores will be calculated based on hourly point averages to derive each participant's 15-hour normalized event score.

    This scoring method removes the need for participants to track time spent in the instances (beyond meeting the 15-hour prize eligibility requirement, described below), removes the risk of participants being inadvertently disqualified from the event for time reasons, and allows all participants to hunt as much as desired in the Robot Mayhem instances without giving an unfair advantage to those who are able to hunt for many hours.

    Rewards
    The colonists accumulating the highest number of points during the event period will be awarded the following rewards by Earth Shock Trooper command:

    • 1st Place - CDF XTLC 1000
    • 2nd Place - CDF XTLC 800
    • 3rd Place - CDF XTLC 600

    • 8th Place - Universal Ammo - 2000 PED
    • 9th Place - Universal Ammo - 1000 PED
    • 10th Place - Universal Ammo - 500 PED

    ***IMPORTANT*** A participant must complete at least 15 hours in the Robot Mayhem instances in order to qualify for one of the above rewards. This requirement does not apply to the Bonus Rewards.

    ***NOTE*** Reward items for places 1-5 will be awarded after the upcoming Version Update, currently planned for March 10, 2015.

    Rules & Notes
    This event is intended for solo hunters. Any attempt at abusing team mechanics or any other Entropia Universe systems or features in order to gain an unfair advantage over other participants will be grounds for disqualification from the event, forfeiture of any prizes, and possible sanctions imposed on one’s Entropia Universe account.

    ***IMPORTANT*** Do not abandon the mission! If you abandon the mission for any reason, either intentionally or accidentally, all points earned up to that moment will be lost forever. Support cannot and will not restore points for abandoned missions, regardless of the situation.

    Happy Hunting!
