80,000BP completes the event. Even though it's christmas shouldn't be too hard at all.

Nano-Frost crystals could give 4-star shards.

Oh cool.
I've also just calculated it and if all 100 Prestiges are done - which again, at 80k BP is not too unlikely - that's 2,000 3-star shards. A full 3-star crystal.

Not that the characters have much personality in this game to begin with (only a handful even get dialog transmissions), but when they do, they stick pretty closely to their classic archetypes. So no religious zealot star saber here.

Meanwhile, a frost crystal was nice enough to give me 4* shards this morning, allowing me to get this dude!
Not my first pick, but certainly not my last; and I DID need more gunners after getting Warriors/Special-units-that-are-basically-Warriors all the time.

And this? I admittedly wasn't expecting to get anything from it; I've got every 2* in the game but Gnaw and of course Deathsaurus. But luck was on my side.
My collection just keeps growing Thank you Mooncake!

Just saying, after that, I'm really not encouraged to spend any more. The RNG system is far too unfair that it feels like any money I drop on it is a waste.
Posted by Burn on December 27th, 2016 @ 5:37am CST
SpaceApe are in this for the money, which is fine, they're a business, and given there are people pumping hundreds and even thousands of dollars into this game a week, well ... they're going to keep those people happy, because they'll keep spending.
But HQ15? Casual players will be months before they can field a team to take on a maxed out HQ15. Most will eventually give up. The game in time will go the same way as other freemium TF games.

That's what I'm afraid of. I actually really enjoy this game, a lot more than Legends or Battle Tactics. But the paywall is stupid. A lot of people are looking at Forged to Fight already, in its beta stage, and since the overlap between TF mobile games is usually not very big, I'm a little concerned that this game is going to be gone before I even reach max level.

Of course that was awhile ago. A bunch of people tried it, quit in boredom after a few days, some still playing.

New bots arrive on the scene as the mysteries of the Frozen Fortress are revealed!
Monster Within Event
The Autobots are making their way through the frozen halls of the Fortress when the halls suddenly shake and reverberate with the sound of a tremendous roar! Immediately following the roar, a transmission arrives from Star Saber, but it may be too late…
Deep inside the fortress, the Decepticons watch as Bonecrusher flies out of the armor breach they’ve just created. Two red eyes shine brightly in the dark as Deathsaurus approaches...
Fight for your faction and earn a 2, 3, or 4-Star Star Saber or Deathsaurus from the event leaderboard!

Leaderboard PrizesNew Characters
As the snow dust from the showdown settles, two deadly new bots prepare for their arrival through the Space Bridge. Meet Star Saber and Deathsaurus.
Star Saber
Famed as one of the greatest cyber-swordsmen in the known universe, Star Saber is driven by a flaming passion for justice and peace.
His idealism, courage and strength are legendary, but sometimes his zeal can override his otherwise calm, collected nature and get him into trouble.
Deathsaurus
A tyrant and despot to rival Megatron, Deathsaurus wields a powerful new sword and a short range battle rifle.
He has nothing to prove, and therefore sees no need to flex his cyber-muscles. But woe betide any who cross him directly.

Eh, glad to see the event rewards are getting worse. At least the lower tiers are getting much better rewards. Although, the 4th tier might be better than the 3rd tier...
SPEND MONEY NOW, GET THAT FOUR STAR!!!
Posted by Kurona on December 28th, 2016 @ 2:46pm CST
On the other hand, Blazing Storm looks great. Like a combination of Skrapnel and Bonecrusher/Rampage.

If you're a 'Con, Evil Empire are pretty laid back, for the lower levels there's Renegade Empire and then the MILF one.
Posted by Kurona on December 29th, 2016 @ 5:19pm CST
I tried it, didn't get anything. Last time I spend money on this game; if they want me to spend more, they'd better be a tad fairer. I don't expect to get a perfect drop rate but I'd rather not expect 5 2* duplicates, none of which are Megatron or even units comparable to him.
Posted by Burn on December 29th, 2016 @ 5:28pm CST
I have a 3* Megatron. I figure it's just a waste for me to try for a 4*. I'd rather a 4* Galvatron anyway.

Yeah... that's the thing; I play as a 'bot. Thanks anyways, though.

As near as we can tell. Someone was SUPPOSED to ask her, and he didn't. But I saw her in Quantums Event, so I am assuming.
Anywho.
Not to one up or brag, I tried not to, but just so damned proud....

Burn wrote:They didn't have a minimum requirement?
Yes, there was.
The offer went down to the MAS feeders to join for the event, should we desire, I desired.
I did fall short of the requirement, I'm still working on getting my 4 stars up to a good level and my time management sucked, and I found I no longer can stay up for 24 hours straight.
Posted by Burn on January 2nd, 2017 @ 4:26pm CST
Time wasn't a major issue for me, I was able to run 4 teams in Z11, one in 10, and then two power levellers in 5.
Posted by ctrlFrequency on January 2nd, 2017 @ 4:31pm CST
I got a 4 star Scrapper out of the oven (40 upgrade) on Saturday morning and that helped A team. 4 star Blast Off went in for his 40 upgrade, hopefully neXT event will be easier for B team
Posted by Burn on January 2nd, 2017 @ 4:36pm CST
Realistically I should let my 3* Galvatron in but he works perfectly as a "trainer".

Burn wrote:I was disappointed my 4* Blast Off didn't come out of the oven over 1000. Still, he's been shoved into the A team much to his annoyance (it's either that or I let Nightbird back in and I just can't get her to work)
Realistically I should let my 3* Galvatron in but he works perfectly as a "trainer".
I'm just imagining Galvatron holding a Poké Ball and unenthusiastically telling Bludgeon to use Tackle.

now that is stuck in my head! :p
Blast Off isn't over 1000? *pouts
Still better than any of my 3 stars though

I'm going to vote Bruticus. I would only need to find a 3/4 star Vortex. Predac9ns, though, I only have 2 of above 2 star
