To coincide with the launch of Uprising 1.6–and perhaps the launch of Call of Duty: Ghosts and Battlefield 4–CCP Games has lined up a series of November challenges for DUST 514 players.
The first is the November Mastery event, which rewards you for dominating your opponent. Every day until the end of the month, your three highest War Point match totals will earn you double the amount of Skill Points. These bonus points will be paid out every Tuesday and don’t count towards your weekly SP cap.
Then, starting today and going to the 13th, your SP cap is tripled, meaning you can potentially earn about 1.7 million SP–about three weeks’ worth, in the space of one.
From the 14th to the 21st is the Black Eagle Battle Test. All players will get 50 Black Eagle Scout G/1 series dropsuits and every 5 kills you get while wearing it will net you one additional Black Eagle dropsuit which will be awarded at the end of the event. The bonus dropsuits will be capped at 70.
Finally, there is the Winter Carnage event that runs from the 23rd to the 30th. During this time, you will be able to earn bonus gear just by using your favorite weapons:
*For every 10 kills made with a Standard weapon, earn 1 Advanced-tier weapon of the same type.
*For every 10 kills made with an Advanced weapon, earn 2 Prototype-tier weapons of the same type.
*For every 10 kills made with a Prototype weapon, earn 1 copy of the ‘Quafe’ Scout gk.0 dropsuit.
If you haven’t tried the the free-to-play space shooter by Icelandic developer CCP Games, there’s no better time. The game is improving month by month and looks and plays very well. If you have any questions about the game or would like to have a chat about it, this DUST veteran would love to hear from you. You can find me on Twitter, or come visit me on PSU’s DUST 514 forums
