    Here the force is definately with them Screenshot_20171206-105009.png Screenshot_20171110-133937.png
    The easiest ship to have 3k+ infamy with Mk4 is fixer.
    This feat has been achieved by two fixers.
    Genki did the video on the other one.
    As a dmg dealer it is hard to go achieve ace league as an mk4.
    I got to 2445 as a Mk4 but couldn't beat this guy.
    Rn he is an mk5 with 3k+ infamy

    Fixers are one of the easiest ways to climb the infamy ladder.

    I guess that sticking to only one boat and to do not waste your crew training on captains that won't help your boats and items at all is the fastest free way to raise infamy.

    I personally don't care about infamy, right now. A long time ago I used to play only speeder but playing with every boat available is so much funnier if you don't care about being always on the same infamy :D

    Also, with the guild quest you have to choose betwen tokens and infamy. Our guild has choosen tokens, we think that'll make our items a lot better than they would if infamy was our priority.

    Same thing happened to me recently : I went from around 1100 to 1800 infamy in just a few days. At first, I thought I had just bumped into a string of powerful teammates and expected to fall back in the 1100s, but I stuck at 1600-1700, so it seems I belong.
    All my ships are Mk4. I play all of them except Enforcer, so I don't specialize. I had some trouble winning consistently at first, especially with my Defender, but I adjusted my style of play. The main thing is : when you close in on 2000 infamy, most players have at least one or two very powerful weapons — like, R35 or E25. And at Mk4, you don't have a great many hitpoints. At all. So you need to play a more careful game and take better advantage of coverage and teamwork because you will pay VERY dearly for each of your bad decisions.
    For example, my 4000 hp Def often goes against 5000 hp Shooters now. Obviously, I can't just jump in their faces anymore. So I take cover, I play some shoot-and-hide, I try to get their hp down a little, and then I come out and bully them like in the old (1000 infamy) days. As a Shooter (only 2500 hp), I've learned to dish out damage while taking cover more. As a Speeder, I used to always discharge both my weapons (bertha + sniper) before bailing out with my overboost, but now I often just send the bertha off when I think the extra 2 seconds puts me at risk. The whole thing also forced me to pay more attention to where my teammates are, so as to better choose the timing of my attacks and to know where I should flee to (when I play Speeder).
    All those things are basic Battle Bay tips, of course, but we don't all integrate them in our game. Closing in on 2000 at Mk4 forced me to, and it made me a better player. Now, with that said, I'm also currently saving to get my ships to Mk5... ;-)

    my problem is as a speeder with bertha i always seem to turn into a shooter with just 1800 hitpoints against 3000 or 400. This means i often die and i also scrap all my useful items then started slapping myself two weeks later but i am expecting to rise soon

    Before last update (power cell with every chest) the chances of earning rare y and epic from green and blue chest seems to be higher.
    I had a ballpark setup-> change to long range mortar setup (by that time I have been saving 1 epic ball park) ->and started to use ballpark again when got a second one epic. The last one got in the raffle. Now I can upgrade to lvl 40 but haven't sugar.
    2 days ago upgraded the flare from 30 to 40 and today got 30% reduce heal regen talent for it

    When started to play, was really easy get 3 stars with fire bomb and used to open 5 green chest daily beside rewards were better from those chest.
    Almost 1 of every 10 rare items scraped give u an epic part.
    Never scrap Epic items!!!

    You still remember that guy I showed to your guild: mk1 at 1300 infamy?
    Well now that person is at 1600 infamy still with only mk1 ships.
    The person wouldn't add me as a friend, so I blocked them and can now view them in my profile, lol.

    no i see a few of them these days, rthey usually get carried in every match like sometimes we have a mk1 with the enemies lowest being mk4 so the mk1 hides and shoots sniper gun from behind mk5

    That is correct. After playing with a few of these legit mk1's, I've noticed that they just a sniper and hit from far away.

    My personal best as a mk4 speeder (2900), a while back tho. Didn't really see any mk4s higher than me at the time, even the paying players

    Really wish I hit 3k but I had to upgrade to mk5 :D

    that means he get there using another ship and tried his speeder which was still at mk4 ... otherwise there no reason to keep your boat on mk4 . mk5 is available 0n captain level 30 already
