Big gratz to all the winners!
A short stand on DQs before getting to the point. I agree actions on cheaters are needed and welcome. I also agree cheating should be something specific and obvious use of exploits (not too few kills, idleing, or kiting when that aint mentioned as forbidden in the rules). I would be dead pissed if i got DQ:ed without intentially cheating and i would have been pissed if no action was taken when the word on exploits used were out. Naming cheaters are fine (wouldnt have been a secret in this case anyway), officially withdraw accusations if proven wrong necessary.
All that aside i really enjoyed this event. I didnt plan on competing at all, i just wanted to try my luck in loot and farm some boxes. First three hours or so i used low damage, few buffs and was just trying to decide if i considered the loot good enough to continue (not much mu in shrap but boxes was ok).
When a 5k popped i decided to at least start putting some effort in.
Using LR-65s t0-4, eggs and mayhem amps, ghost armor.
Basically stuff anyone can get i got 4th in Annihilation. Some dislike the element of luck but since i dont own competitve gear i welcome it. Id still loose almost always to someone geared up but thats fine. Invest and your chances of success should be better than mine, i like the fact that there is a possibility to win even with a smaller bankroll.
Defense i did two runs with pistol and no buffs to see what it was but i figured my ghost would make it impossible to get ranked position.
At last day i noticed the times werent actually that big so i put on the (L) armor i had in storage (some mayhem for the reload) and brought pills. During the run i buffed all i could and used two medpills to survive before loosing by destruction. If I had the time to run it some more times i would prob been able to advance but most prob never win since i didnt have gear for it.
So for a player that isnt a heavy investor but still puts his share into the game this was
the best event so far. Im fine with being underdog, i havent payed (in time or money) to be top dog. I just wanna know theres a chance.
Peace out
