Articles de Dayvan Cowboy (Got all 5 Frontline PvP mount (I can with one GC))

So yeah, the grind is over. For now 😀

I started around mid-August and finished today. Haven’t played every single day but it was still a significant time investment. Well grinding is like that, right? I have limited myself to daily 6 wins because that seemed reasonable in terms of quickness and not burning out myself each day because you can’t just waltz in and win 6 games in a row every single day.

Also “I can with one GC”. Why is that important?

1, Each Grand Company has its own pony mount. It means you have to do 3 x 100 wins to get all 3 changing your Grand Company each time you got one. Generally speaking it’s better to stick one first, get all mounts and getting the remaining 2 ponies later.

2, And this is more important. “Guide any of the three Grand Companies to a total of ___ victories.”

ANY

is the keyword here. It means you have to stick to one Grand Company and get your wins with that one single Grand Company. If you have say 70 victories with the Maelstrom and you need 100 for the mount but you change to Adders your

achievement count will be down to

ZERO

. They don’t accumulate so 70 Maelstrom + 30 Adders will be still only 70/100 in the achievement counter.

Hence the title, with one Grand Company you can get 5 mounts THEN change to another Grand Company, get the pony from there too, then change to the last.

Technically you can do change Grand Companies more frequently and say get 1 pony and 1 map mount together and then other 1 map mount and 1 pony on another Grand Company but that’s an enormous waste of time, resources, and there are more achievements that you can get meanwhile (PvP rank for example). So stick to 1 while you get all 5 and get the 2 remaining pony on their own.

Anways the mounts,

–

Safeguard System

“Triumph in 100 matches in Frontline.” Vague text, what does Triumph mean? It means you have to win by reaching the score limit (1600/1600 or 800/800). You can win by leading the score while the time is running out (most common on Secure) but that’s not a Triumph.

Aerodynamics System

“Guide any of the three Grand Companies to a total of 100 Fields of Glory victories.” Fields of Glory = Shatter. The ice/snow map.

–

Logistics System

“Guide any of the three Grand Companies to a total of 200 Frontline victories.” 200 victories on any maps. If you are going for all mount then this comes naturally.

–

Construct VII

“Guide any of the three Grand Companies to a total of 100 victories at Onsal Hakair.”

–

Serpent Warsteed

“Guide the Order of the Twin Adder to 100 Frontline victories.” This is one of the ponies. All 3 Grand Company have its own and you can only use the one you belong to! Even if you get all 3.

And some tips?

– Take it easy. You CAN’T win every single game. Have to accept that. If you have ever played any MOBA like League or Dota you will know that. Accept it and you won’t be furious about losses. Let it go, there are things that we can’t control

– Be the change you want to be. Simple callouts and helps are a big thing. “Mid S is up!” or “We should focus blues not reds”. Things like that. I believe most people are just like you and me who wants to win and they will listen to simple calls. But don’t go into arguments. See tip 1. Unnecessary

– Enjoy the game? PvP has its problems but… it’s actually fun. Not bad at all. Not all the maps are the same, for example I can’t really stand Secure and Seize but generally they are still good. And you can meet some nice people. At least here on Chaos EU you will quickly notice that there are no more than 100-150 people who regularly (ie daily) plays PvP. The rest are randoms from the daily roulette.

Until the next time, have a safe journey!
