Loot Tiers[]
Originally, Loot Tiers were established to spread loot according to the percent damage amount done during event. Now, Loot Tiers are based on reaching certain damage tiers rather than damage percentage. (Credit for table goes to Victor Vieira.)
0...................................You did not do enough damage 2,556.........................Trophy/+50 exp 5,260 - 8,013 .............Sabre, Prestige, chance of Pulse Core 10,503.......................Sabre, Prestige 15,250 - 17,120..........Chimera 18,489 - 434,779........Chance of Pulse Core
For legacy purposes, the original loot tiers based on damage percentage is shown below. If a player attained Rank 3, they would get all rewards for Ranks 3 through Rank 1. However, this system helped establish player-institued "CAPS" on events so that players would all have a chance at best loot. This also caused problems as some players purposefully would break CAP and thus caused Epic Boss events to be closed (meaning you had to belong to special groups to participate in them), thus harming the game as a whole.
- Rank 1 (Top 75%): Dread Panzer or Drones
- Rank 2 (Top 60%): 1 or 2 Scorpions
- Rank 3 (Top 40%): 1 or 2 Pulse Cores
- Rank 4 (Top 30%): Immortal or Mech Walker
- Rank 5 (Top 20%): Scorpion
- Rank 6 (Top 10%): Sabre or Chimera
- Rank 7 (Top 5%): Sabre or Chimera
Notes[]
- Chimera units are obtained as loot from when the player deals at least 15K damage as found by Chimera Elite.
- Loot Tier system in place November 2009, shortly after the release of the Chimera. Prior system was very random.
- Chimera Elite is a closed group set up for those wishing to participate in Chimera events.
