At 142.5K each cauldron gives a single copy of the event tank.

As somebody else posted, if you can clear the first 3 nodes you shouldn't have any problem getting them. (they're at the 140kish level)

If you can't, probably not.

My 2 cents, should have had 1 copy at 90,000 (clearing 2 nodes per day + some pumpkins) 2nd copy at 140k, (3 nodes per day) and 3rd at 225k. (all nodes per day, I assume?)

So just about everybody gets the basic 5*, more dedicated players would be able to get enhanced versions.

(or possibly, a 4* with same look at 90k)

This would be a much more fair reward step up.

Well don't forget, not only won't you be able to elite both units without spending cores, you won't be able to do any of the event exchange shop trades that are worth doing either.

Regarding pumpkins: I haven't been hitting the regular map too terribly hard during the event, to the point where I wasn't even scouting for oil much until recently. That all changed once I looked at the pumpkin total. I'm closing in on 20K pumpkins, so they're going to be a bigger factor than we initially expected. If you do mid-level tiles while you're waiting for your casualties from the event map to repair you can bring in a lot.

But yeah, this is still going to suck for those who don't have time to play every 2-3 hours...I've even resorted to no-lifing it with timers to wake me up when repairs will be complete, and that's not going to be for everyone.

This event made me give up the game all together its obviously created for the veterans who have started from the beginning, for those that started later the units are too weak to make any reasonable gain turning it in a massive grind without being able to even get the event tanks,

Not even. I've played from nutaku launch and there's no way I can get all copies of the girls even if I played every day. I'm most likely going to drop this game here as well. I was already bored the past month of it. The event itself isn't even enjoyable.

The fact that we're required to spend cores just to get all the copies of the event unit kills the purpose of an event for me. It doesn't help that even then, that's only half of the rewards, the other half is in the event shop, which most players don't even have a chance to get as their resources will go towards trying to get the event unit and some items require even more cores.

You do not have to spend cores at all to get all copies of the girls, but you do have to work very hard for it. To me that's fine. The extra copies are only to elite the tank anyway and it's not that big a bonus, sure the extra XP gain is nice but you can level the girls without it and since elite does NOT unlock any new skins or anything other than stats it's not that big a deal.

Any player except someone who started playing after the event started can get 1 copy of each girl with no real effort, clear 1st 3 tiles (because they are based on commander level lower level accounts are actually better off in this event) and farm up some pumpkins doing your normal oil dump maps. Really the only thing you will do different is the 24 event missions and considering the first 18 you can do in the space of 30 mins and not lose any girls at all it's not asking that much at all.

I only get to log in to the game at home and only really twice a day, If I can get close to a full clear with that then anyone else can do similar. Also you get so many cores from the actual event that buying 2-3 of the 50/50 deals is pretty much covered even if you do run a little low or forget to do a few days.

TL;DR: While the commander level scaling is annoying, it doesn't stop anyone from getting at least 1 copy of each event girl. This event is the first really good thing I've seen enter this game since launch and I hope to see more.
