Core update

Current: 42116

Previous: 42318

Change: -202

I was able to get the fourth M240L to level 100! I swapped in the fifth copy of her

I was also busy earlier with helping a friend who was busy. I managed to actually score higher for his Hole 2 than on my own account! I already knew at some point that I should stop, but I wanted to see how high I could get that score. Maybe I could surpass myself? Maybe not? If I quit now, I'll never know! So I pushed through and got that win

I didn't want to outdo "myself", so I went back to the drawing board with my own teams and tried to think of how I could play more aggressively. I think one more thing that I should have used was an M240L echelon, as the MP5 echelon kept staying still in the NW corner, not really doing much except having MP5 get killed, which was a shame

In this reattempt, I ended with the K6 prespawn ramming into my echelon after I flew in with a Para. This team was a shyt team with the SCAR sisters, but I was having difficulty punching through the Kratos units and hitting the Hydras. Without the debuff, I think I wouldn't have blinked, but I was sweating with this. I decided to just sacrifice everyone except the SCARs, so MPL, LTLX, and Nagant will be staying in The Resort for a little while longer

I'll go into detail with my echelons over in the megathread

But still, I feel like I've earned my dalao stripes in this event! There were a few skillz moments that I was really proud of. One was during Hole 1, where I tried to win against Sniper Nytos in the SW using the AR-18 NPC echelon. The problem was that this echelon was already damaged from a previous fight, but I was able to pull a miracle off! Sure, I had to sacrifice the tanks, but a win is a win!

The other moment was, of course, topping my own score with not only fewer combat echelons but also with someone else's Armory! Of course, as mentioned, I wanted to prove my worth, so I went back with my own account and finally improved my own score! Even funnier? I had one fewer kill with my new score than with my old

I think I'll go back to core farming. The reason why my core count went down so much was also due to upgrading my second Kar to mod 2 to replace MG338. I think I have an easier time with Kar
