    Yeah, was about to say I disagree with this line:

    Some shooter pairs were basically undefeated last time. Even me, with my poor T5 rare + t1 leg ex cans managed 20-30 win streaks while fleeting with a good shooter guild mate.
    I'll agree that a well equipped and coordinated pair of enfos will be really hard to beat, but running shooter and/or defender successfully for this event shouldn't be that much of a problem as long as you have a hard hitting close-range-ish point dmg setup.

    So again we will see many 2-3tier levels with legendary items smurfing? or something changed?

    Meta doesn't mean that the other ships aren't viable. Any well-fleeted combo with good weapons can wreck in this event. Just play to your strengths.

    I really hope not, but I've not been told of any changes to prevent this. :(

    The best combo in this event is dbl shooter with dbl/triple rail guns.
    if one side had 5 rail guns. 2500 dmg per rail gun then u can kill a 12k hp shooter in few seconds.
    Rail guns are so effective against yellow ships too. You can destroy the tesla shield then rail him right in the face with ur second rail gun.
    In small maps, waves are always on your side. You won't face any problem while aiming ur rail gun. Equip an op short range weapon because some enemies will try to get close to u to reduce rail gun dmg. Anyway, u can delete him with these 4-5 rail guns before he get closer.
    Bandage is useless in this event.
    Torps/mine/napalm are so useless.

    Mostly correct, but I've got a couple disagreements.

    First, I'd take a pair of evenly matched yellow boats over any other combo. Not by much, but I just don't see anybody besting them in the type of combat they were designed for. I can't think of a single game last 2v2 that a pair of Shooters beat us. Of course, they definitely did not run your super-meta-countering setup of multiple railguns. That would be more challenging for sure.

    Second, try telling YSL and Godlike that their Torps are useless as they hit you for 6k+ per Torp when you can't return fire due to stun and can't move due to frost. A well-coordinated frost torp team is deadly.

    Added your combo to suggestions. :)

    Basically it's gonna be 2 enfos, one with frost and the other with stun. Both packing serious firepower.... And that's all I'm gonna say ;)

    so far the worst event...
    and, that t1E blast shouldn't be a problem because I used lvl 10 uncommon tesla bolt in last event and it was ok
    played two battles:

    Take your best setups folks, trying to manipulate the gear score is pointless. Play with your best items and ships, keep it honest

    I am not trying to manipulate the system, I just could use my mk3 defender (it would have around 4.7k hp) with my normal items, this is setup (except for the t1E blast, used t1R grenade before, never got dupe for it so;)) I used in majority od previous events
    and the speeder setup is my setup for normal mode, it's my best setup for speeder...

    10000x disagree with this. This is an amazing event and very fun if you will actually use a high gear score so that you fight against even competition.

    But I do agree that the seal-clubbing has not been addressed and more players are doing it since there doesn't appear to be ramifications for their actions. I'll keep fighting this battle until players aren't allowed to do this.

    Wasn't saying you were buddy, just a warning for other folks is all :)
    Seems to be better matchmaking if you use your best setups, just from what I've noticed so far

    Make it a lvl based matchmaking, then adjust teams based on gear scores.
    btw, the rule about adjusting gear score based on the highest level weapon is pointless. Some ppl have to use weapons of different levels: i have a t3 legendary std cannon + t1 legendary rail gun. i don't have any op std shields so i have to use my t5 rare one. This system will consider me cheating :/

    2v2 is my favourite event type but I consider i as the worst because of these seal clubbers;)
    jk, getting 1.4k+ ex cannon hits right in your face is not funny, when you have only 3.5k hp
    or being shred by t5E and t1L carronades for 1k+ damage per salvo...

    My highest item is T4 epic blast cannon.. so I'm running that, my T1 leg blast, and either a t2 epic flare, or a T4 rare swift torp... So my weapons are all over the map, gear score wise lol
