This the 3rd TIER 21 Global Event features a pair of ASSAULT WEAPONS. This also marks the halfway point of the TIER 21 Battle Cycle, as we should all be turning our attentions to TIER 22.
TOP 10: 21.5 BUNNY MKII ASSAULT - 157.29M-241.17M (Former VIP Event: RAINBOW MKII Clone)
TOP 30: 21.5 SIAMESE ASSAULT - 131.07M-214.96M (DOA)
It should be noted that the current defense tier power of 188.74M suggests that the 21.5 SIAMESE ASSAULT will only be effective for the duration of the current cycle and ONLY if you get it fully upgraded immediately.
There are also a pair "bargain basement" sales items in The Store (for those who've reached TIER19/20). These are identical in rating, so I have no idea why there are two of them ... Duh?
720 GOLD: 20.5 GOBLIN ELITE HEAVY - 117.96M-180.62M
720 GOLD: 20.5 WHITE LILLY MKII HEAVY - 117.96M-180.62M
Today also features the type of VIP Event usually reserved for the start of a new cycle.
@3,500: 21.5 BUTTERFLY MK II TESLA - 235.93M-361.76M
@5,000: 21.5 CROSS MKII SNIPER - 157.29M-241.17M
SPECIAL NOTE: since there is an excellent chance that the TESLA Global will be omitted from the rotation, the BUTTERFLY may be your only chance to acquire a new TESLA before TIER 22 arrives, especially if your current TESLA is starting to show signs of battle fatigue.
LOOKING AHEAD: the arrival of TIER 22 also marks the arrival of 1 BILLION POWER weapons, if GLU holds it's current course. These should start to appear in the Super VIP Events. My only concern is will the "match maker" continue to function properly
or break down
?
Good Luck and Good Hunting !!!

Mirn's top prize is a Bunny Gauss. This weapon could make it very difficult against equal power defenses, I'm concerned!

Yes that is the same guy who scored 100,000 points in a past global. Right now he is part of Brad's clan the Elites.

Scoring is decidedly down; not entirely unexpected given the relatively low-powered TOP 30 weapon being offered as a prize. SMH
The 21.5 HARUSPEX @ 50% is at parity with the 21.5 RAINBOW MKII @ 100%.
While both are fine weapons that exceed the defensive power of TIER 21, the HARUSPEX should be quite effective (impressive) at TIER 22.
Global Event DAY #1 is a wrap.
Good Luck and Good Hunting !!!
Clan JAWARA had complained by many Snipers in Global. Suspicious using Hack and Cheat.
This week, MARAT, DANJENGKOL, AND BAZZ seems off and make this week event not competitive and down the average Score of top 30..
Keep Moving!!
A "hack / cheat" was first reported in the MIRN forum:http://ggnbb.glu.com/showthread.php?204113-**warning-to-android-players**
I'll agree that many of the top players are noticeably "missing" from the leaderboard and I can only hope that they haven't fallen prey to this type underhanded "come on". Whatever their reasons or motivations, I have noticed the unusual presence on the leaderboard this morning of the following players and all belong to the JAWARA CLAN:
RANK #1: 7,506 AP (JAWARA99)
RANK #2: 6,760 AP (J4W4R4)
RANK #11: 5,025 AP (JAW4RA)
RANK #12: 4,705 AP (JAWARA313)
RANK #13: 4,471 AP (JAWARA007)
RANK #15: 4,196 AP (JAWARA26)
RANK #16: 3,871 AP (JAWARA68)
RANK #23: 3,536 AP (SOUNDJAWARA)
RANK #24: 3,535 AP (JAWARA1ST)
RANK #28: 3,521 AP (JAWARA212)
I suppose one doesn't need to be a brain surgeon to realize that something is afoot and smells rotten in the "State of Oregon" (nothing personal intended to the residents of that fine state) ... many top players replaced on the leaderboard by "JAWARA" denizens.
I shall track these low life mischief maker(s) and create a detailed report of their activities. I am really surprised that MARAT may have fallen victim to this type of scam, but then again I really don't know anyone or what motivates them (obviously).
Not to look down a gift pony's throat, and a long way off from the heydays of the "Lunatic Asylum", this particular brand of BS has the effect of targeting the "top players" and hijacking their player profiles ...
... I will not be losing any sleep over their loss, that much is certain. If their personal data was stolen, that's another matter altogether.
I can only hope that "JAWARA313" is NOT an indication of how many have fallen victim.
C'Est La Vie.
Fumble fingers I guess ... here it is: http://ggnbb.glu.com/showthread.php?204113-**warning-to-android-players**
I'm surprised you didn't notice the post. In short they will promise you GOLD (what else) if you provide them with your device IMEI CODE (only an idiot would give up that code) and join their CLAN. Apparently there are more idiots playing CKS than I could ever have imagined.
Once they have that code, they can effectively clone your device ... impersonate you, access your accounts, plan terrorist attacks and play games like CKS using YOUR profile.
Additional Thoughts:
The potential consequence of providing these bottom feeders with your IMEI CODE is that you're done as a CKS competitor since GLU uses that unique device identifier to bridge your game to your device. GLU cannot prevent the cloning of your device, ONLY the player can do that, unfortunately. Cloning does have it's obvious benefits as long as it's the player (owner) doing the cloning.
The irony here is that these guys won't be around very long. Once the weapons become obsolete or the players GOLD supply is depleted, they'll move on to the next victim. Meanwhile, they essentially compete amongst themselves (not very good players, I might add), but in the process have destroyed months (possibly years) of a player's gaming effort.

I am sitting #591 with 1021 points. 48 wins 1 Game Crash loss.
I may switch down to the 32.8M MG, since the 47.19M doesn't add much and causes some problems.
Sounds like a plan to me ... I was never impressed with the MG anyway, but the rocket launcher has proven to be quite an asset since this new round a drone levels was introduced. Another thing to note is that you must upgrade the weapons to realize any firepower at all; just strapping one on doesn't get you much.

Good Morning CONCERNED ...
My guess is a 22.5 SNIPER (at least) and a 22.5 TESLA (possibly); could also be a repeat.
Start searching ELTIES profiles for anything other than 22.5 ASSAULT or 22.5 HEAVY. These were featured at the start of TIER 21, I believe. I've searched the RUSSIASILA profiles and have discovered nothing new.
I'm sure that one of these CLAN MEMBERS would have surely grabbed a 22.5 TESLA if it were resting atop of the Super VIP; then again 2 x 10,000 GOLD Super VIP Events in one cycle IS a bit much, even for a high roller
BTW How did your CCNA re-certification go ??

The JAWARANS continue to slide down the ranks; they've also lost RANK #1 but there are still 10 of them on the leaderboard ...
... I am starting to get a sense of who the victims were; what a shame. SMH
Somewhat similar to a "cavalry charge", the All-Timers are literally blasting their way up the leaderboard, leaving dead JAWARANS in their wake ... way to go guys
The Wabbits Are Coming ...
Good Luck and Good Hunting !!!
AGREE.
KEEP MOVING GUYS, Beat JAWARAs who hack energies / GOLDs. They already doit with account RAMA and doit again this event.. Better makes their point (zero).
We also found some Players below level 20 can beat senior player in level 190.. impossible except using GOD MOD.
Supraviețuitori se luptă!!
My CCNA re-certification went very well. Scored 961 out of 1000. It is on to the CCSI (Cisco Certified System Instructor) next. That training has been pushed out to May right now and has been moved to Rochester, New York.
Brad has a 22.5 TESLA MAUSOLEUM to go with his 22.5 HEAVY CHEROKEE. He also has a 22.5 ASSAULT SORCERER, but I think the SORCERER was there last week.
BRAD acquired the SORCERER and CHEROKEE during the 03/10 SNIPER GLOBAL, so I suppose it's safe to say he only recently acquired the MAUSOLEUM TESLA ... possibly during the current VIP Event. Either way, I'm now certain there is a 22.5 TESLA up there.
I admire my man BRAD ... he's pulling out all stops to hold his rank when he could have simply said, "Enough !!!" ... Way To Go !!!
I acquired the Mauseleum Tesla in last Monday's Super VIP (March 21) and it is the best Tesla I have ever run. I used it all week right out of the box. While I can't say what is in this Super, nobody has bought in so it has to be a re-run. This is the weak part of the Super VIP cycle, The 22.5s will be cheaper than 9250 Gold next week and the 23.5s will be available the week after that. No reason to go there unless you need the Energy credits.
Good point ... CONCERNED has been flirting with VIP participation for a couple of weeks now ... any day now I think he's going to dive into the pool No need to rush though, TIER 22 is right around the corner and as we approach 1 BILLION POWER, my gut tells me things are about to get a bit interesting.
*** SMILES ***
The JAWARAN scourge has all but been eradicated. They've been evicted from the TOP 10 and the six (6) of them that remain on the leaderboard are slip sliding away ... (I never said these bottom feeders were very good players) ... I even took notice of MARAT popping up on the LB, so all is not lost.

All in The Universe has returned to a symbiotic balance ... once again

Will reach 90% on the 21.5 HARUSPEX tomorrow; all other weapons and base have been fully upgraded, so it looks like an early Global Event close for me. I can then return to the workshop and give LITTLE ME a long overdue "tune-up" ... all done in under three weeks; not bad at all (1M+ per vault is holding).
The Wabbits Have Arrived ... Happy Easter !!!
Global Event DAY #3 is a wrap.
Good Luck and Good Hunting !!!
Here is The SCORPION's "short list of predictions" as to what we can expect from the upcoming TIER 22:
(1) DEFENSE POWER will double at TIER 22 increasing from 188.74M at TIER 21 to 377.48M.
(2) The 21.5 HARUSPEX HEAVY @ 100% possesses an effective power rating of 321.91M, with the
21.5 ABHIRATI and 21.5 AUGUR HEAVIES @ 100% rated at 361.23M. All of these weapons should successfully navigate TIER 22, but that will be the end of the road.
(3) The 20.5 CUTTLEFISH TESLA (along with it's clones) will be at the end of it's lifecycle at TIER 22 and will need to be replaced. This is evidenced by it's power rating being less than 1/2 of defense power at 161.22M. It will remain effective in TIER 22 however.
(4) The 21.5 BUTTERFLY MKII TESLA tops out at 361.76M and while it will last well into TIER 23, this is noteworthy because the long term implications are stark; weapons continue to move towards parity and even the TESLA will eventually loose it's 60 DAY lifecycle advantage, already down from 90 days.
(5) The 22.0 VAMPIRE SNIPER's maximum power is rated at 377.49M and has replaced the 21.0 FOX as the diamond attracting "baseline" standard bearer at TIER 22. Start collecting your parts NOW.
(6) The VIP Events will feature TIER 23 weapons very soon and the power ratings could reach as high as 1.0B; many will fall closer to the prescribed 754.98M.
If there was ever a choice in attempting to "get ahead of the curve", surely the next week or two is the time to make it. I know many of you are feeling the sting of staying current and it will only get worse, I'm sorry to say.
Also note (contrary to my usual predictions), these are minimal expectations ... it could very well be much worse dependent upon which side of the bed the GLUTONS awaken ... on delivery day.
Finally ... and then there are the costs of the upgrades?
Good Luck and Good Hunting !!!
