Event

**Events** appear in the game for limited time and offer a wide range of rewards for completing a list of objectives.

Most Events offer you a list of **Event Objectives**. By completing them, you will receive **Event Points**. The more Event Points you collect, the further you advance along the Event's progress bar. Filling that bar will award you various resources, skins, mechs, weapons, pilots and implants. Playoff Events add a second stage, whereupon completion of the event progress bar you can continue to earn Event Points and receive additional rewards by placing high in that playoff's Leaderboards.

You can access the Events window from the top left corner of your Hangar.

## Progression Events

### Gear Hub Objectives

Located within the "Daily & Core" event group, this event is divided into 8 chapters, each chapter being unlocked when players unlock the corresponding tier in the Gear Hub. Completing objectives in this event does not add Tier Stars and is not related to the process of actually unlocking Tiers. See more details and rewards of Gear Hub Objectives.

### Arachnos Derby Event

This is a 7 day Derby Event that awards the Arachnos mech. All new players receive this event. "Days" in this derby event only count days that you log-in to the game. If you ran out of time after day 7 and the event expired without awarding the free mech, don't worry! This event returns after a short while and return repeatedly until you finish it. In fact, some players choose to not finish this derby (Or the Stasis Beam 8 one) on purpose so they could repeatedly farm the resources awarded by it.

### Stasis Beam 8 Derby

This is a 14 day Derby Event that awards Stasis Beam 8 weapon. It becomes available one day after completing the Arachnos Derby Event and functions the same as that event. Since Stasis Beam 8 is considered a mediocre support weapon some players intentionally fail the last reward of this Derby in order to repeat it and receive its other rewards on a regular basis.

## Recurring Daily and Weekly Events

### Daily, Weekly and Pilot Objectives

Located within the "Daily & Core" event group, these events contribute 35% and 70% of the average weekly Credits and A-Coins sources (respectively, excluding ads). Completing these objectives usually happens as a byproduct of regular gameplay.

### Deathmatch Double Duel

Usually occurring on Mondays, this event objectives revolve around delivering damage in 2V2 Deathmatch battles and its top awards is alternating between 100 A-Coins and an Amateur Crate.

### Accolade Challenge

Usually occurring in the beginning of the week (Monday-Wednesday), this event objectives revolve around achieving challenging feats in combat

### Battlethon

Usually occurring towards the weekend (Thursday-Friday) this event objectives are quite similar to the Accolade Challenge

### Arena Playoff Event

This Playoff Event occurs every 2-3 weeks and lasts about two weeks. The Event Points are mostly gained through winning streaks and killing mechs from behind. The top 3 players in the Leaderboard receive 400/600/800 A-Coins. On August 2023 this event replaced the (now defunct) Vault Blitz Event which used to award 400 A-Coins to players who spent 25 Fortune Vault Keys once every 3 weeks.

## Other Events

### Derby Events

These are longer format events that last from a few days to a few weeks. Every day a few more objectives become available. Usually there are more Event Points in the objectives than are required to finish the event's progress bar, in which case it is possible to finish the event without completing 100% of the objectives. You can complete the objectives at any time until the derby event ends. Therefor it is sometimes better to wait with some common objectives (like "Open 2 Fortune Vaults") that might be duplicated at a later day in the Derby. Doing so allows completion of multiple objectives with fewer resources spent.

Development Derby - Despite the "Derby" in the name, this is often an event with a singular set of objectives revolving around spending resources and upgrading gear.

### Playoff Events

This type of event has two stages. The first stage is similar to other events - complete objectives to accumulate Event Points to complete the progress bar and receive set rewards. As soon as you complete the progress bar you will enter the second stage, where you will be grouped with 199 other players who completed their first stage around the same time you did. During the second stage you can continue to complete objectives and accumulate Event Points. The top 5%-40% (of the 200 players in your group) will be placed on the leaderboards to win progressively more valuable rewards.

Since this second stage is a competitive, and you have some control over the timing of when you enter this stage (by completing the progress bar in the first stage), you can make strategic decisions on the optimal time to start this stage. You will usually be grouped with more competitive players if you enter in the first or last few hours, similar to Tournament Heats. It is common practice to accumulate resources, crates and postpone upgrades and acquisitions until a playoff (or other type of event) rewards using those. You will often see top leaderboard scores increase dramatically in the last few hours of the playoff as a result of using those accumulated potential event points.

### Specialization Spree

In this event the objectives usually require you to use a specific mech or weapon, with the final reward often being 300 A-Coins.
