AZURTANE HEIST

The blue stone area , known for its rare blue stone, was once of the best natural gas mining areas. After the outbreak, it became the only natural gas field that can still be mined normally due to its extremely shallow gas storage layer and high natural gas purity. However, for unknown reasons, Gigacorp the controller of this gas field , evacuated all personnel within a short period of time, and the Bluestone Area became the focus of competition among all factions.

We must occupy the gas fields and secure this most important of doomsday fuel resources.

Players who registered for the same timer period will be matched and they are going to be sorted per bracket based on the generation of heroes. It means, players that have Gen 6 in their states will be match with players of the same generation. This apply to the rest.

BOOSTS AND MARCHES

Remember that all boosts are effective during this event. (This includes research, alliance tech, VIP, talent, skills, governor buffs, settlement buffs as well as your skin buffs). Make sure to activate all buffs before entering. The most important here is your march capacity as this will determine the standard amount of troops you can send.

You will be given an initial of 170 mining stamina at the beginning of the game that recharges every 6 seconds ( 1 stamina/6 seconds). However, you cannot buy any stamina during the event.

TIMERS

Once the event timer started , players can enter the event .There is a 3:00 mins preparation time before the Gas Fields open. At 20 mins ( 3 Stages 5 minutes duration) and 40 mins ( 3 Stages 5 minutes duration) after the event started, the Eruptive Gas Field will drop. The middle building opens at 45 mins after the event has started.

Players are given 1 free advance re locator and after which this will undergo a cool down. Re locator cool down is every 10 mins. Players are allowed to use their advanced re locators via backpack but for every relocate the number of relocators will increased similar to Reservoir Raid until the next relocator is free. You can only relocate 5 times between each cooldown.

PVP / COMBAT

The Level 1-3 Gas Fields will open 2:30 mins after the event opens. Each level of Gas Field has a different attributes and speed. For you to be able to occupy and gather, you will need to kill the Infected on the building where you want to occupy. You can also have an easy access of the locations by clicking the mini map.

The light part of the map is where your Level 1 Gas Field and the darker the colour the higher the Gas building level.The higher the level of the Gas field the more gas reserves and the faster the gathering time as well.

You can attack the infected once the fields are opened. Since the strength of the Infected varies, below are the suggested level of Gas field to occupy dependent on stats. Of course this is also dependent on how you play. If your aim to get more gas and rank better and get better rewards, always go to the highest level once preparation timer is up.

LEVEL	INFECTED	GAMING STYLE
1	Weak	Low Stat Players
2	Strong	Average Players
3	Strongest	Strong Stats

The number of march you can send is dependent on the number of your march slot open. Your march capacity is the determiner on how many troops you can send on a march hence why it is very important for you to boost your march capacity before entering the event. The number of troop type per march is fixed to 3/3/3 and this cannot be edited.Your highest tier of troops will take precedence for every march. Each march will consume 20 mining stamina.

• 

Once the infected in the building is killed, natural gas piles will be randomly dropped around the area. Players can send a pick-up march ONE at a time. Each pick up march will costs 2 mining stamina.

• 

• 

Players can start gathering once their march are able to defeat the infected. Be mindful that during this stage, other players can attack each other’s occupied buildings including the buildings occupied by alliance mates. If you are defeated by another player, 10 mining stamina will be returned. Players who are able to defend an attack will have 20 seconds window to heal all defending troops.

Eruptive Gas Fields will drop randomly in waves. First wave will be at 20mins mark once the event started and at 40mins mark. This building does not have any Infected and the the gathering speed is really fast.

• 

NAME	RESERVES	SPEED
Eruptive Gas Field	3,000	300 per second

While the event is ongoing possible GAS LEAKS will occur. Picking up gas leaks will give you instant gas.

HOW GAS LEAKS OCCUR?

1. When you leave with an unfinished building.
2. When you attacked someone or if you got attacked and the gathering is almost done.

At 45mins mark, the middle building will open. This is where the bloodbath will likely happen the most. You will be given 1 extra march on top of your existing march but you can only use this to attack the Lab. The player occupying the middle will have a timer to generate HP ( health).

• 

The attack strategy here is dependent on how players do PVP. You can either wait for other players to weaken the holder or you can simultaneously attack with other players.

Attacking and holding the middle building will give you gas rewards dependent on your occupant timer ranking.
