    I'm not sure how I, or the other guy, managed to get 3 stars.
    - if anyone got the "secret and easy way to earn stars guide" tell me, because hard work isn't always the solution :cool::p

    - I don't have anything to say against the star system, I think it's fine :) Just a wired scoreboard you don't see everyday, in my opinion

    Lol, it's because the star system factors in stuns, damage blocked, etc. This is one of the more extreme cases of that.

    Frost blaster, frost launcher and Fire Bomb increases your chances of getting 3 stars

    As a shooter, fixer, and newly speeder (all MK4), I noticed then sometimes I got 3 stars, I am doing well in a battle in few areas.

    Shooter - I don't missed many shots (probably the unfriendlies stayed stationary most of the times.
    Fixers - Above. And also how many hit your pulse hit and how many of your boxes your teammates picked up.
    Speeder - High percentage of hit shots, high kills, and high damages. I have yet to learn to use the shield and bolt.

    I've given up trying to make sense of the star destribution -- Sometimes I get 3* for mediocre performances, other times I'm the MVP player of the year & get 1*.

    A few matched ago I dealt most damage in my team, but yet I was last place. We won so I don't mind tough.

    It works in most battle, only struggle is close 1v1. At medium-long distance is it OP
    Epic missile launcher IV
    Epic sniper IV
    Epic frost blaster III
    Epic bandage III
    Rare overboost IV
    Rare turbo IV

    - only struggle is HP... you need to learn how to dodge..

    When I get three stars as a Shooter I feel like I do those same things and dodge a lot of shots. Sometimes I just feel that I gave a 3 star performance and it's always right. Not sure what it is though.

    This IMO is a great advertisement of the current infamy system and why they should never base infamy won/lost on contribution. It would be extremely hard to calculate effectively and people would game the idiosyncrasies of the whatever contribution algorithm existed.

    Depends on the ship you are playing. For enforcer damage output is not the criteria for stars. It's crowd control which is what the ship is built for and that's seen in the rewards as well. Damage is something shooters are judged on
    Here are some of the lower infamy screenshots where I have earned three stars with napalm which if used properly leads to crowd control.
    Heck I have even a screenshot where my team has lost and I have done minimal damage yet I have received 1 star.
