Halloween: Raid for the Filth!

[Afghanicus]

I don't understand the randomness of the time until the portal is opened...

 

3, 7 or 11 minutes.... just... WHY?

[Sparky___07]

Well I really like this mode. It's good fun and a pleasant alternative if you need a break from Randoms.

 

The mini tech trees are interesting and the buffs are too. The three teams plus bots leads to some really good scraps!

 

And it's a really good (fairly easy) way to build up Commander Free XP as all the ships come with 19pt Capitanos.

 

I guess you can't please all the people all of the time. Don't take it so seriously! (But do fix the port slot thing).

[Sznyper]

Repeat again: MM allowing divisions against randoms sucks as hell. At least one in three games I see division camping aroung portal killing anybody that approaches. They want to play like this - let them. But against other divisions, not randoms.

This is something maybe for the future that we're investigating, but I can't make any promises yet.

 

Right now I can't answer that, we're checking internally. When it comes to winning - it's actually quite easy. Why don't you join us for today's Halloween stream and we'll show you how to do it?

 

Greetings, Crysantos

I saw your stream , and is easy to get filthy rich when you run in division , I play random , and random is random , sometime , you get players that are good enough , you kill rasputin and get out with 2500 filth (my best) , but often there are random avrage players they , contribute some , but not a lot , and 5% , those are useless  players that dont even COLLECT FILTH ! , just shoot , run and "notser" islands , is no problem when you run dd , but when you have bb that hurt ... I have unlocked 8 bundles 8k , in 3 days (65k filth) , good I have a loot of free time to kill , but WG work hard to get rid of players , because I cant imagine , that someone who need to work or go to school , could unlock all bundles , why give goals that some 80% players wont reach ? , wows need to be more player friendly.

I might be getting blind with age, or it might be due to the lateness of the hour, but I honestly can't see a way to mount the premium skin we get as reward from the filth. 

I can see the skin in my inventory next to other skins I've received over the years as premium camo (like the Duke of York, Bismarck and Hood) but when I select a ship of the relevant tier and check in the "external" tab, there's nothing there? I can buy the ordinary premium skin for dubloons just fine, but no way to mount the premium skin and "burn it" into the ship.

 

Anyone got a trick to doing this?

There is a number of ships it can't be mounted on, check to make sure it's not one of those.

As for the skin it should appear in the perm camo section of the external camouflage page next to the usual Doubloons perma camo as a preview and once you click install it gets bound to that ship permanently.

1 Question

 

Lets say I grinded all filth required to get TX Perma camo

 

If I used that camo on my Henri IV, Will it be the same camo as Fossil (The Halloween Henri) ?

I am pretty sure that not. You can see in the event article that the Infernal camo always looks very similar, while the Fossil is totally different

Hmm.... Does anyone know of a list that shows which ships they work on? 

 

The article for the event doesn't say. 

 

If it's the same ships as in the game mode, then I have Hinden, Yamato, Monty, Republic, and none of those can take the camo...

OK, then maybe it's just bugged atm for tier x skin because in inventory and port I see the following.

No way to mount it:

I had to log in here to give you my feedback. This new Halloween mode is... well... crap of the year. Tried it, won't play it ever again. Best of luck in killing the game with ideas like this.

Mode is not bad , but idea with last bundle 8k is just stupid ! , first 500 ok, 2000 ok that I can accept , but 8k x 24 =192k filth to clear all bundles , that is insane ! , WG work hard to get rid of players ! , I would understand 4000 that I could accept , but 8000 for chance to get TX camo , WG forgotten that game should be fun not grind ! ,I am sick , I have a crap load of time , that I need to kill , so I will probably do all 3 bundles , I have gathered allready 65k filth , but honestly , 15th that month I can get good news , and this month or before christmas I will move out from Sweden to Poland , and after I saw last 12 months in game , I will be forced to quit game , I will not have time to do all thing that WG will throw in events , and that frustrate me...

That worked!

When I unchecked the "Hide halloween camo" I could suddenly mount it.. 

Thanks! 

[Karasu_Browarszky]

While I appreciate the creative effort, not really my cup of tea (sencha)... could we at some point get some historically accurate camo themes, like the kure gray for the Yamato? It's basically as easy as painting the ship gray....

But...but....what about the giant death roller on the front or the huge metal scorpion? What can plain Gray do against that?

The Yamato has very good guns!

And I say it once again: MM sucks. Divisions against randoms shouldn't be allowed. Divisions should be matched against divisions. More and more I see division consisting of the same clan players just camping portal zone killing anybody approaching.

 

And one more thing: If somebody brings zero filth - he should receive ZERO reward. More and more parasites in game.

[a_p_u_l_e_i_u_s]

ya,  i  played a lot of battles with parasites - they did not participate at all in the fight, they were going somewhere back in honolulu map zone, expecting others to do the work

 

afk or those who leave the fight before ending she should suck it.  it is too easy now to abuse the reward system

 

[Smart_Hound]

Ghost and Demon bundles are ok, but Monster is way too much time needed to be worth it.

[radius77]

I'm very happy with this mode.

It's entertaining, quite challenging for a PvE and the rewards are also grind-worthy. 

 

Only drawback is that there are many ppl who either don't get the aim or are pretty basic in playing WoWs at all.

Originally I thought 1k filth gain per game per team should be easy - it's not   I play DDs, I get my 500 but many times the rest can't deliver more than 100 .... 

[Sznyper]

I have missed yesterday, so today I write it twice:

 

MM SUCKS AS HELL. DIVISION SHOULD BE MATCHED AGAINST OTHER DIVISIONS NOT RANDOMS.

[LeGeNdOfGoW]

People are crying here so much lul, this mode is fun and you get great rewards, free exp, coal, money and lots of flags with boost to experience,  I have done almost everything without much effort, free camo for X? hell yeah -50% cost post-battle

 

[W0Z]

I grinded the exp on the TIX ships and  got the Angler and Scorpioid for 1 silver but when I go to buy the Octodroid it asks for 1 silver and 300 gold.

 

Is this right? I thought they were all 1 silver

You don't have port slots, so you need to buy them. Or sell any ship.

WG didn't give us port slots, but we will save 3 slots for the weakest Haloween ships.
