Yet another Global Event featuring HEAVY weapons; talk about the ridiculous. How many HEAVIES have been featured in Global Events over the past few months? I've completely lost track; I know the last was on Christmas.
Since it doesn't cost GLU a single red penny to offer weapons rewards, you've got to wonder why GLU keeps featuring these HEAVY weapons as prizes and refuses to allow a Global Weapons Cycle of Life to complete.
Yeah ... we all know the answer ... Even TRS is turning his nose up at this one.
At any rate, here we are:
TOP 10: 19.5 HEAVEN 59.98M - 90.31M
TOP 30: 19.5 SHEOL 49.15M - 80.48M
To add insult to injury there is a 19.5 GENERAL 45.15M - 81.48M (with optical sights), as well as a 19.5 ARCTURUS TESLA 49.15M-80.6M sitting there waiting for what? My guess it's the Silver League Event's Top Prize and/or VIP Event Prize (visa versa).
Great time to sit one out and take the weekend off (impromptu boycott, if you will) ... at least there's the NFL Championships.
Hasta La Vista ... Baby !!!
TRY_AGAIN ... we're gonna need vaseline AND a snow plow it seems.

I guess this would qualify for toobad, but just the thought of this being set up for appeasement really ticks me off.
Decisions, decisions.
It's relatively cheap for a TESLA ... about $30 real money ... go for it and take the edge off; I assume that's of the 19.5 variety
Well, if I play full time (work got in the way this week), 2 1/2 weeks of free gold, and I have reserve to spare. But it is 18.5x, and like you say, 2 weeks and your probably right.
Final thought, the Judas is working to my satisfaction, and don't think this tesla will raise my bounty, so I'll just sit it out.
I have been looking thru my store on IOS platform, and I do not see a KUBOLD TESLA. anywhere. The next TESLA that I can purchase is the 18.0 ZWERG for 1405 gold.
You probably have a tesla close to this power already, or are just more advanced than I? I have the 17.5 Megaera now. The store does change drastically, the guys that do VIP's occasionally talk about sales I never see.
If the MEGAERA is NOT proving to be too much of a hindrance in the way of smaller vaults or skipped battles, then stick with it for now; it has a 90 day lifetime if you're careful.
Sooner or later, GLU has got to host a Global featuring a 19.5 TESLA and it's got to be within the next few weeks. I cannot fathom GLU omitting this weapon from the rotation for 2 months, but these are the authors of CLAN WARS and 48.1M Support Drones, so anything is possible.
Apparently this seemingly minor "glitch" is a major problem for the GLUTONS to correct ... SMH
TRY_AGAIN ... are you seeing snow yet?
But you hard core guys, this is in a town (D.C.) that just last night had major traffic jams with a 1/2" snow, that wasn't prepped for and turned into icy streets with no traction. Even the Presidents motorcade had a very slow slippery ride through the city.
May not see a snow plow for 2 to 3 days, I hope the power stays.
BTW the sanitation dept. cannot chew gum and walk at the same time, so during a snow emergency, no garbage is picked up.
Guess all those speed cameras we got are paying for something... naw, I'm paying for this too, who am I kidding?
A weekend packed with action and fantasy ... what else could I ask for LMAO
Sounds like De Blasio is going to outlaw travel, lol.

Final tally Central Park 26.8" (a new record) and JFK (where I live) 30.5" ... NYC is still pretty much shut down even though the streets are clear (good job guys). Now the big dig commences
Travel ban has been lifted. Three (3) fatalities (1 hit by an auto, 2 heart attacks, no murders) ... RIP. With 8.5 Million residents that's not bad ... not bad at all.

I am sitting #103 with 5210 points on a 212 win streak.
Seems like you're going for the HEAVY. It's ugly and clumsy, I know, but I've killed many an opponent using my old KARMA; you just can't beat that massive destructive power. I found that timing your attacks was key because of the delay in firing the first shot; like popping up a second or 2 sooner than I would normally, as long as it doesn't expose you to a lethal attack.
Also because of the iron sights, try to take aim at your target BEFORE your attack (popping up) and fire in bursts as opposed to sustained fire.
In many ways your training using the ASSAULT weapon carries over to these chain driven weapons.
Good Luck and Good Hunting !!!

TOOBAD says that decent Super VIP you're looking for could come tomorrow AM, and not just a decent VIP but quite a good one
I must say I'm quite surprised that you haven't performed any recent weapon upgrades
Personally, I'm good for another 6 weeks at least (more likely around TIER 20), but if you find a HEAVY up there, let me know *wink*
BTW How's the wife?
Good Luck and Good Hunting !!!
Carnac the Magnificent once again predicts the future! Wonder what the Super prizes are?
I'm back to gatling guns again. Don't mind them too much, the only real downside are the blind spots of the sights, and slightly less accurate. But the power increase compensates for that.
And finally, Junior will touch the big leagues today, he will make it to Tier 19. A long time from the Tier 7 to 12 disparity it used to be! Guess you could say he's having his Bar Mitzvah today? Maybe GLU will give him some presents?
