Riot List/Legacy

## Overview

Riot is the first event in the history of VEGA Conflict that focuses on helping newer players catch up in terms of obtaining past event technology.

Unlike feature events, all players can participate in this event - every NPC target on the map provides a certain amount of Loot, the event currency. As usual, they are earned by dealing damage to said targets.

In addition to the regular VEGA targets, VSec Overwatch fleets also spawn and move from portal to portal in convoys. These fleets actively engage any player fleets within 5 levels but are fairly easy to destroy. In fact, many rebels farmed these fleets for blueprints of the VEGA Security faction as they rarely appear outside of events.

With the introduction of Special Events, Legacy Riots have been discontinued. Here is a list of past Legacy Riots:

Note: Some iterations may be missing from Jun 2016 onwards due to missing event briefings on the official KIXEYE forums.

## Event Store

The event store format is the same for every Riot. Players can only choose one of the two prizes upon reaching each tier (if applicable). The next tier is locked until the player has chosen (or is unable to choose) a prize from the previous tier, though they can still continue making progress towards the next tier.

## Target Payouts

\*VEGA Peacekeeper fleets (as seen during the Crackdown event) spawned instead of VSec Overwatch fleets in Jan 2015.

Loot payouts are in addition to the target's usual drops, such as blueprints.

## Trivia

* During Riots, all NPC fleets spawn out of planets and resource fields at twice the standard rate.
* During the first Condor Riot, the ranges were extended ("bugged") on VSec fleets. Players responded by no longer coining and posting threads about the issue on the forums.
* The Vigilante Riot originally offered the NET Torpedo instead of Fusion Thrusters prior to the start of the event, but that was quickly changed. (Source)
* In December 2016, all of the prizes offered in VEGA Riots as well as the first three VSec Riots have trickled down to VEGA blueprints.
