Powerplay Faction: Arissa Lavigny-Duval A Crazy PP Week

r0j · Mar 3, 2016

Wow, last week was a bit crazy, seemed like we put in a lot of effort there but just had too much ground to cover with all of the contested target systems. Ended up with 14000 merits, which is a record for me, thanks to everyone I flew with.

Seems like the opposition appreciated the well-fought contest:

though I'm sure they are happier with the result.

They put in a massive effort to push those expansions, so much so that they had to neglect their prep list and huge amount of CC to pull it off.

The next few cycles will be interesting...

PS: Congratz on the nice merit haul. Well done.

I need to look more into the other aspects of what happened (Prep, etc), I'm still pretty new to PP and haven't paid that much attention, so it will be interesting to see how these things carry over in the next few weeks.

I still do not understand these preparation grinders trying to 'oppose' something for nothing - wasted more than 48k merits
Kept an eye on our prep systems and delivered more that 8k merits pushing myself to rating 5.
At least in the end I could shoot some Fed ships.

But I realised we got a strong and well organized group.
Well done everyone involved. /O

I guess that's the big challenge, to get people to go to the useful targets set out in the weekly updates in this forum or on Reddit, rather than just spam the closest target or top listing in the in-game interface, which hurts us more than it helps for the most part.

I had to pour lots of millions into Mool and Damoorai but I'm glad it wasn't for nothing

Quite the crazy pp week indeed.

Quite the crazy pp week indeed.

Was that to prevent some other useless expansions being promoted?
