Battle of the Beasts

Update 0.10.4 brings a new temporary event—the Battle of the Beasts—which is inspired by Germanic mythology. Join one of four teams to complete missions and earn rewards!

[h2]
Things You Should Know
[/h2]
  • The event lasts a month and is spread over four stages. Each stage lasts 1 week.
  • Each week, you can fight for one of four teams.
  • During the event, you can complete personal missions that are issued daily to all event participants.
  • Completing missions will advance you through personal and team progress bars, as well as unlock rewards.

[h2]
Rules of the Battle of the Beasts
[/h2] Starts: Thu. 20 May 09:30 CEST (UTC+2) Ends: Wed. 16 Jun. 03:30 CEST (UTC+2)

[h2]Key Rules[/h2]
  • The event is divided into four stages, each lasting 1 week.
  • Before starting each stage, you can choose one of four teams:
    • Welthund: a huge black dog with a sole big eye on its forehead. It gets bigger and angrier during epidemics and wars.
    • Feuerputz: a demon that can take on different forms. Most often, it appears as a flaming skeleton or horseman.
    • Glühschwanz: a night ghost in the guise of a dragon. It flies to the homes of witches and miscreants in search of treats at night. If it doesn't receive treats, it burns their houses.
    • Lindwurm: a wingless creature with a dragon's head and a serpentine body that lies in wait for its victims by the water.
  • Participants receive special missions throughout each day. Completing the missions will progress you through personal and team milestones.
  • The missions can be completed playing Tier V–X ships in Random, Co-op, and Ranked Battles.
  • Progress is reset to zero at the beginning of each next stage.
  • All players who have reached Access Level 8 can participate in the event.

[h2]Missions[/h2]
  • Three mission types, with a limited allotted time for each mission, are available to you each day.
    • Missions are issued in a sequential order every 40 minutes.
    • The allotted time for each mission is 120 minutes.
  • After a mission expires, the next mission of the same type becomes available.
  • Battles that end after a mission expires are counted towards the next mission. The only exception is the last missions of each day — the time for counting its results is extended by 20 minutes.
  • A total of 25 missions are available throughout each day.

The missions are only available during a certain time period each day.


[h2]Personal and Team Progress[/h2]
  • Completing the missions will earn you Points that increase your personal and your team progress.
  • When you reach certain personal and team milestones, you'll receive rewards. For each personal milestone achieved, you'll immediately receive the corresponding reward. To receive a reward for team progress, your personal progress must be equal to or surpass your team's progress.
  • During the week, you can obtain up to 10 rewards: five for personal progress and five for team progress.
  • To obtain all 10 rewards during the week, you should earn 1500 Personal Progress Points and 1500 Team Progress Points.

[h2]Earning Points[/h2]
  • Each mission has four completion marks. Reaching each mark will earn you 20 Points. In total, you can earn 80 Points in one mission.
For example, a mission to earn Base XP may have the following marks: 800 Base XP; 2,000 Base XP; 4,000 Base XP; and 8,000 Base XP. After earning 800 Base XP, you get 20 Points. However, to get the maximum number of Points for this mission and reach the fourth completion mark, you should earn 8,000 Base XP.
  • If you complete the missions more efficiently than other players, then after completing a mission, you’ll receive between 10–25 additional Personal Progress Points, as well as be able to see your position in the overall player standings.
For example, if you complete a mission to earn Base XP and earn more XP than 50% of the other players, you'll be awarded additional Points when the mission ends.
  • The results are summed up when each mission expires, and the teams take their places in the overall team standings.
  • A team receives 5, 7, 9, or 12 Points per mission, based on its position in the team standings. The position in the overall standings, in its turn, depends on the activity of the members of each team.

[h2]
Rewards
[/h2]
Advancing through your personal and team progress bars will earn you flags and patches with your team's symbols, as well as themed Commanders and a new temporary resource—Beast Tokens .

If you select a new team each week, you can collect all the Commanders, flags, and patches. All Commanders of the Battle of the Beasts event have 10 skill points and are specialized for I Hermelin.

You can have an unlimited number of identical Battle of the Beasts Commanders simultaneously. If you don't change your team, then upon reaching a certain mark on the team's progress bar, you'll receive another themed Commander, as well as compensation for a patch in the amount of 15,000 Credits.

    You will also be able to earn one of each new Commander by completing missions obtainable through special Twitch Drops. Stay tuned for a dedicated article with more details.


[h2]Beast Tokens[/h2]
In total, you can obtain up to 440 Tokens: 400 for completing the event missions and 40 from free daily bundles in the Armory.

The Tokens can be exchanged in the Armory for various in-game items, including German Destroyers containers that drop elements for the collection of the same name, as well as Battle of Jutland containers.

You can obtain up to two Battle of Jutland containers in exchange for Beast Tokens.

A Battle of Jutland container can drop III König Albert or V Agincourt, as well as the "To Honor Skagerrak" and Jutland Veteran permanent camouflages for these ships, or other rewards.

Five German Destroyers containers can be purchased in exchange for 200 Recruitment Points each.
    With the release of Update 0.10.6, Beast Tokens will be converted into Credits at the rate of 1:9,000.


[h2]
German Destroyers Collection
[/h2]

[expand] [/expand]
Rewards for completing the sections: 1 day of Warships Premium Account for each section.

Rewards for completing the entire collection: an Iron Cross permanent camouflage for VIII Gustav Julius Maerker and a flag of the "German Destroyers: Part 2" event.
