Plato wrote:As the eRepublik Team wants to put some additional challenge into your weeks, we are releasing Weekly Challenges. As the name suggests, each challenge lasts for a week and a new one will begin immediately after the previous one has ended.

- The first Weekly Challenge will start Tuesday, Day 2163 at 00:00 eRepublik time

- The challenges will end each Monday at 23:59:59 eRepublik time

- You gain 1 Prestige Point for every hit made in battles

- From Guerrilla Fights you gain 1 point per every 10 Energy consumed

- Rockets and Bombs count as 1 Prestige Point each, no matter how much damage they deal

- At the moment no bonus Prestige Points are given from Epic battles or for Battle Hero medals

You can use the Prestige Points to claim the following rewards:

- 150 Prestige Points -> Recover 20 Energy every 6 minutes until the end of Day 2169 (the last day of the Weekly Challenge)

- 300 Prestige Points -> 10 Strength

- 400 Prestige Points -> 1000 Storage

Seems like Plato actually pushed his tournament rage for it to be there persistently on a weekly basis...

So, how will eBelgium adapt to that? There is that energy recovery boost again, which will make food demand rise the more people participate to that challenge. Q7 demand could also rise slightly because of the new leaderboard.

There are energy bars in play but more importantly strength points, which will make weekly participating players rise above the non-participating players. An increase of the strength-gap between players is not excluded. The milestones for the 10 and 20 strength rewards are respectively 300 and 500 FF/week.

Also important to note: they don't announce ANY country reward. As the weekly challenge seems made to replace tournaments, this means that countries aren't so sure anymore to profit of gold handouts from Plato.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

How will eBelgium adapt to the new feature? Will we support/encourage our citizens to participate? How can we deal with our wipe (=no MPP's=moving costs)?

How will we react to the possibly raising food demand? Will we act or just wait for the offer to adjust? Isn't there any advantage to gain here?

Should we be more cautious about our spendings since no country rewards are announced? What would be the consequences of not exhorting our citizens to get at least the strength rewards (in the long term)?

Oh and "inb4 comments like 'thiz iz eBattlefield nao', 'Plato desperately looking for moneyz', etc geek

PS: They destroyed Guerilla hopping :'( it almost became an eBelgian national dance!

by **NLSP** 2013-10-23, 06:58

the food demand increase can maximally be doubled and that can be covered by the overproduction in food there is.
Q7-weap price will probably rise.
we have a mechanism that can provide people the cost of their moving costs back
since there is no advantage for the state eBe, there will no special funds allocated for this now

by **MaryamQ** 2013-10-23, 13:33

Wow! So many questions! One way to reduce the moving costs is to move to a nearby CoT country that has multiple MPPs. I am presently in Germany, and have plenty of battles without moving costs beyond the 20 BEF it took me to get there. If you can also find battles with COs, which is not unusual with this MPP stack, you can recoup that amount and your return ticket quite quickly.

Germany is a good place to hang out, been there basically for months, they have MPP's with most major COT countries and most important battles can be fought from there so might as well stick around there.

think we have only 1 player in eBe who does do guerillia fights on regular bases.

what you mean with hopping?

by **AndreasC** 2013-10-23, 18:18

Hopping is doing a guerilla fight without fighting,weapons or armor; just moving back and forward. If both players do this you could get free prestige points because you regain the remaining health after a guerilla fight.

Yey, slovenian will win it

Hail immigration

by **Mr. Wonka** 2013-10-23, 22:09

As the Valeyard suggested Germany is a good option for mpps I stayed their for a while, and the USA now that they have a NAP with spoland they will have some consistency with their regions and you will be able to stay their for a long period of time.

Updates to the Weekly Leaderboards

- When you enter the Leaderboards you will now see, by default, your ranking in your Military Unit, if you’re a member of one
- You now have some more advanced filters available

The following decorations will still be awarded:
- Top 3 damage in each country
- Top 3 opponents defeated in each country

In addition, the following decorations will be given starting from this week:
- Top 3 damage dealing soldiers in any Military Unit
- Top 3 opponent defeating soldiers in any Military Unit
- Top 3 Military Units in damage in their respective countries
- Top 3 Military Units in defeating opponents in their respective countries

Please note that:
- The decorations for Military Units will appear on the profile of each unit
- The top 3 players in last week’s “Opponents defeated” Leaderboard, as well as the Damage leaderboard, have already received their decorations
- If you change your citizenship or Military Unit after Monday 23:59:59 eRepublik time, the change won’t apply to the Leaderboards. Hence, you will still deal damage for your old citizenship country or Military Unit.
- If you’re not in any Military Unit and you join one after Monday 23:59:59 eRepublik time, you will not take part in any Military Unit based Leaderboards

I'm getting tired of these challanges every week.
I am tired of the leaderboard, I am not going to fight more just for a medal in my profile.

Thank you ;-)

You can still do Guerilla hopping if you want and find the proper opponents. You will not loose health, but do gain damage/rankpoints. Not loosing health means more normal hits, so in a day, you will still have your prestige points. Just extra damage/rankpoints that's all.

So yes, I still keep doing Guerilla's even with the weekly challenges.

And I really don't fight for the medal, I always hit as much as I can on a daily basis, the average damage/hit fluctuates a lot, depends on the succes I have with the Guerilla fights
