    Ammo Box Event Guide!

    UPDATE 3/18
    Event has ended. Congrats to all our players!!! Keep an eye out for DEETS on future events.


    Ammo Box Discovery:

    Ammo Boxes can be obtained from any action that requires the use of energy or stamina. All missions have a chance to drop a Ammo box, although you cannot get them from your hood. You have a chance to steal boxes from other players in PVP.

    The rate in which Ammo Boxes drop is directly related to energy cost of a job (PvE) and a fixed value for stealing in PvP. The higher the energy cost for a job, the better chance at getting a Ammo box.

    When a Ammo Box is found, it will fly into a special UI icon which is located at the lower left hand side of the screen. Tapping this icon brings up the events window.

    Loot:

    * 4 pieces of loot are tied to the event.
    * Different levels see different loot for each item: [1-20] [21-50] [51-80] [81+]
    * Loot is automatically placed in a players inventory once the amount of Titanium Bars for each are found.
    * The last item (10 Titanium Bars) has an item bonus which is -20% unit casualty rates. * As long as a player has this item in their inventory, it will function properly. It does not have to be equipped by them or their Alliance.

    Lockpick Kits:

    * Players have 3 choices as to how they want to open their lock box.
    * Bare Hands: (Free to use and a low chance to open.)
    * Rusty Knife: (Cash to use, scales with players level, and a medium chance to open.)
    * Blow Torch: (Gold to use, fixed value and a guaranteed chance to open.)
    * Once a player taps one of the lockpick buttons, 2 things can happen; they can successfully open the Ammo Box, awarding loot, or fail to open.
    * If successful -> a Ammo Box is subtracted from their total.
    * If they fail -> they do not lose the Ammo Box.

    Lockpick Kit Cooldown:

    All attempts at opening a Ammo box will trigger a 1 hour cooldown. A player is only allowed to open 1 Ammo box per hour. If they wish to open more, they can choose to use the reset timer function. This costs 15 gold. Once reset, they are brought back to the main events window where they can attempt to open another Ammo box.

    Titanium Bars:

    This is sort of an event currency. Titanium Bars have a chance to drop anytime a Ammo box is successfully opened. Players will need to collect Titanium Bars to obtain the loot seen in the main events window. Once 10 Titanium Bars are collected, the end event item is awarded. At this time, players may still open Ammo boxes, although Titanium Bars will stop dropping.

    The rate for Titanium Bar drops is gradually reduced as your total number of Titanium Bars increases. This never becomes a 0 or below-0 number.-0 number.

    Thanks Boomer, CCM & Devs... I think... I'll have to pack up camp & hit the warpath again.
    May I suggest you guys remove the "News / Announcements" Sub-Forum category. Stickys are just fine anyway.

    3/8 is yesterday, is this just a typo?

    Hey War Priest. It sounds like a MicroSoft PPT transition thingy will show up on the screen. lol.

    When a(N) Ammo Box is found, it will fly into a special UI icon which is located at the lower left hand side of the screen. Tapping this icon brings up the events window.

    In Boomers other Sticky it says it's in the new update, and that isn't released yet. I don't get it at all. They started this event yesterday and it ends the 17th, but we don't even have acess to it.
