Crackdown Event: Big Game Hunting 2/11/13-2/24/13

That is correct Chavar. I'm hippo and the other person is Besthippo.

Yeah i thought there was only one hippo. I was on he same team as best hippo and he had a 40,000 point lead just by him self after 2 hours. I tried joining an hour in like chav recommended and its working this round

My team is looosing >.< !!! I hate this feeling after this much time of winning the battles...

When I am with those top spenders, with my team or on the other, it is fun to watch raid bosses go down so fast for so long. Sometimes, it goes on for hours!

@sith - I have another convert woot! It does work, and your contribution does matter when you are in a late team. This event, I have had at least 5 rounds where my banked points were the deciding factor in winning those rounds. I lost one because I woke up 7 minutes late, and the loss was just 2,000 points. That sucks.

Do you know how long you can bank points?

Unlike you peeps... I couldn't care less about the team battle gears since ain't gonna help me unless I get all 10. What I want is to be on the losing team point wise during the battles... so I don't have to waste so many BT's hitting the raid bosses. Losing team just gets more criticals and I can go from 1mil damage to 1.8mil damage on Hatsume.

Sucks because I am trying to collect dora but still need to use some to get enough points for the epic. I actually touched 185 nos doras, but its down to 171 because using it to kill the bosses and would only have used half that if were on losing team. At least now I can start keeping again. Just need 5k points for the last 4 team battles... gonna be relaxing.

Cheers

The raid boss points must be claimed when the tengu raid boss change. That's a must. Other times there have been complaints of points getting lost, so probably try to claim when you need to and not keep too many.

Last day or so, Hatsume is gonna disappear too so make sure your banked Hatsume clears are gone before then. Last time around I lost a lot of em.

All right got three wins in a row, i think i found the secret to victory. You join 45 mins in and then 15 mins later you write on the wall " lets go team! We got this" fingers crossed it keeps working on these last couple

two tricks/tips I've learned recently, not sure if these have already been talked about:

1: For the trick on getting crackdown points without spending BT, I found a way that can guarantee (so long as others finish the raid boss) you will not spend a BT. What you do is you attack the raid boss, but once the you've finished your attack DO NOT press OK. The system seems to only tally your damage and subtracts your BT after you press OK. By using this trick you can make 1 BT last forever while you gain crackdown points. You can also use 3BT to get more the 300-400 attack points and not worry about using up your BT.

2: Correct me if I'm wrong, but you can keep your blue tokens and save them for another event. If you were to save tokens for 1-2 entire crackdown events, on the 3rd crackdown event you could easily reach the higher turn in offerings and get r5 event gear right at the start of the event.

I see this on the wall or any variation of it, I look up the guy who wrote it and if I see he has zero points I write on the wall, "Try to contribute first." This also helps the team because everyone who reads it is gonna be challenged to put points on the board. I did this a few rounds ago and the zero guy shot up to second place at the end. Mission accomplished. LOL

LOL you crack me up.....
never heard of such wall posting would help wins the battle. Instead a good LMAO

Blue tokens are turned into silver ones once the evnt ends, so this won't work. :/

1. Yes and i believe in effect since they had the clincher award and set it up so u don't lose battle turns if somebody else kills the boss. But it is not something we want the world to know as NR might fix this as its easily done by reverting back to earlier system. So I hope admin deletes the relevant post asap.

2. No. At most the tokens becomes the black tokens after event so better claim the blue before it ends.

My best crack down event yet and im feeling better about my areena gear each time.

I actually don't think they will fix it because of the amour of complaints they were getting about people losing battle turns. It's good/bad just depends on luck.

Hm, what's going on with the ranking?

Yeah, it's still tallying... Though, I'm propably ranked 800 and didnt collect a single dori...

Nice! I did the same thing for the last teo crackdowns and i started this event with 140 dory ended the event with 70 left so i did pretty well without livin in the game for 12 days. Its well worth it
