Arena Brawl
In Update 13.10, we're introducing Arena Brawls, an exciting new challenge that will give you the opportunity to earn some sweet, sweet Steel!
There will be a special bundle in the armory available for 10,000 Coal which will unlock a mission chain for you to complete. This mission chain challenges you to win seven times playing 3 vs. 3 Brawls aboard tier IX ships, unlocking rewards with each win. The final reward of this mission chain, should you complete it, will be 500 Steel. You'll have to be careful, as the chain will need to be completed with minimal losses. If you lose three times before winning seven times, the mission chain will need to be restarted. Even if you lose and the mission chain is broken, you will still receive three More Coal containers as a reward for your bravery. You'll also be able to retry the mission chain up to ten times by purchasing the bundle from the Armory again. This version of the Arena Brawl mission chain will be available for the first week of the event. This, of course, means we have something even more daring up our sleeve!
During the last two days of this event, a Hardcore Arena mission chain will become available for purchase for 30,000 Coal. This will be a difficult version of 1v1 Brawls on tier VIII where you'll need to obtain five victories, with a total of 3000 Steel as a reward for finishing the chain. Use caution, as even one loss will result in the mission chain being broken. Even in this case you will recieve a reward - one Supercontainer. You'll be able to retry this mission chain up to three times by purchasing the bundle for 30,000 Coal in the Armory.
Will you come out on top as an Arena Brawl victor? We can't wait to find out!
