The Gears Pop Community needs more help from The Coalition / MediaTonic

You get the winter thumpers from brumaks. Less common for sure, but i know you do because i wouldnt have had 18 this morning from boosting this weekend.

Basically just avoiding winters because everyone says “boosting brumaks” just makes no sense…i have only like 4 others in my crew that understand this while everyone else is just brumaking or bust.

You do get Thunderland 8’s from Brumak 8’s. But Thunderland 8 has identical rewards as Brumak 8, but adds the 3 pins from each tier that are missing from Brumaks

I’ve got 34 thunderland thumpers. Man, I’ll see the guide to make this quick. I’ll tell my boys and see how things go

You 100% get winter 12s from brumak boosting. Saying otherwise is blatantly false. You probably get seven winter 8s for every one winter 12.

But brumaking and slowly accumulating winter12 is better than going to butcher because it has a higher drop rate.

Edit: apparently i got unbelievably lucky with win crates and the horde event reward crates. :man_shrugging:

Wait a sec, did they remove Brumak lv 12?

I’ve tracked it. I only get Thunderland 12s from running Thunderland 12, Butcher 12, and rewards from win/omen crates. Don’t run enough Raam 12’s to know if it drops Thunderlands

Brumak goes 8 to 5 to 1

Then I’d love to know how I got 8 over the course of the super bowl boosting nothing but brumak and filling up 3 win crates.im just lucky evidently

Thanks

Once I’m done with my Thunderland thumpers, I’ll Brumak my way into getting 4kk of coins.

Horde event rewards includes 2 crates. What about Omen rewards?

Omen was already done. Those 2 horde event crates as rewards had to both given me thumpers. But even then thats at max 5 with all the wins giving me 1.

Idk. I got more somehow without playing them

I dont think they will do any big changes like new tiers.

If anything, the best thing they can do is increase cog rewards from a win and decrease them for a lose. At the moment its like +25 for a win, -20 for a lose. Make it +50 for a win and -10 for a lose. Let it be a lot easier for people to climb.

In theory that would mean 16 wins from bronze to gold. But in theory if you won at least one in every 4 matches, you could get to gold with enough matches.

Help with gold league would be nice. Can you just make it so we have the gold league at 3k cog tags and call it good. Please and thank you.

I like this idea!!

Again. It wouldn’t help. As all the best players would just be sitting at 3000. You still wouldn’t be able to get the wins.

Oh for sure it’s too late now for something like that. Probably takes too long to implement something like that.
Cog win amounts though. That’s a good shout. 50/10 swing I like the idea.
Although again, once you’re at 3400 let’s say. You won’t get one win out of 5. As you’ll just be playing all those best players still.

At the end of the month, people push for the top X player rewards. And people who get to Gold and switch to Casual would have no affect on those going for Gold afterwards.

Winter 12 is definitely better than Brumak, but Aerocoupe is right in that the only way to get more is from other level 12 thumpers (Or reward chests etc). If I could infinitely run Winter 12 I would, but Brumak it is!

This is kind of why i dont get why people are suggesting lowering the gold threshold…you have to play the people who have stuck out the game to the end all the way up to gold no matter if its 3600 or less…there comes a point where (unless you have a couple crew mates around you to search for boosting) you are gonna have to win tough games. You are gonna have to overcome real life people in a fluid strategic battle.

Its like the fighting saying “everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth”. You gotta stick it out against better (higher level) competition to move up…and the farther up you go expect it to only keep getting tougher and tougher. If you don’t have a strategy that works to your high level pins strengths then you are gonna get whooped on by players who can.

The wins giving more cogs earned/losses equal less lost cogs would really help people out…and honestly if you lose 4 in a row over and over, you shouldnt be making gold rank.

Unlike Gears 5. Winning is solely based on your ability to beat the other player…no teammates to blame. So if you go on a losing streak you should feel the slide in rank.
