[K1NGS] thunder3oo Players 242 posts 32,728 battles Report post #1 Posted June 22, 2016 I must say I'm disappointed with Wargaming's way of doing things (again). We wasted all that time to get those bloody diamonds, we reached 12 mil, but the target was moved from 12 mil to 15 mil, while the secret remains... secret. ... "treasure" ships were mediocre - low speed, low torp/guns range (excepting Katori with her 13,some km), low shell/torp speed, and so on...I bought Katori and Tachibana, had no real joy sailing them, so I sold them short time after the purchase... After some time I get one week of premium and a Emden (anyone else got that?). And since I'm pretty sick of that thing called pompous "balance", I refused fully use of the premium days, just sailed Emden a few times... only to remember how bad is it (I had it before). Bad accuracy, slow shells, bad arc, damage... wait, what damage? So... the question is: what's that "marvelous" GNB secret? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The 15M goal was there for technical reasons (the event did shut down the moment the 12M was reached). The marvelous GNB secret was that there was not a reward. The prizes were the stuff you could buy with the diamonds you earned. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Agantas Players 1,059 posts 7,793 battles Report post #16 Posted June 22, 2016 R event ended prematurely, resulting to those of us who didn't start the event early enough in the first week to do enough that week's dailies. The "secret" was a stretch goal to prevent such premature ending, with the goalpost moving to 15M serving as event extender due to mechanical reasons. Yeah, they shouldn't have called it "secret", since the event never was about reaching it. WG already knows this by now, so you're beating a dead horse here.

Which got delayed due to technical issues or hickups while an other event was running, iirc. So, anyone knows when we get the 2.5x XP for Captains in EVERY battle?
