1 kill In max dps range takes roughly 2 minutes, meaning we need an averyage of 6 true max ranged accounts doing corp at the same time for the entire event, given this number changes due to the many worlds and irons that will be also doing this however its a hell of a lot to ask for considering every event ive participated in has ended with me being the only 1 basically being the only one doing the last of the grunt work (until the last day for those who need dmg still)
I don't know if im just being crazy but I think youre asking for a hell of a lot of kills. just my opinion though
thoughts? opinions?

edit: reason ive made it 6 max accs and not 8 is the factor of many multiple worlds and the ironman who can also camp to save respawn times

It should be a challenge to hit the required kills.

Based on previous events, I would predict an easy amount being in the 16-18k range. With the community being able to smash every community goal since bringing these back, it makes sense for us to set them on the higher end, as opposed to a guaranteed figure that’ll easily be achieved.

Something to also consider is the amount of kills ironman players end up getting. With something like this, chances are any ironman player who has yet to finish corp, will use this event to do so, which should account for a good number of kills.

FYI: during the last Corp event (which was a short one on October 25th without goals or rewards), the community did 478 kills in 2 hours. That's one every 15 seconds.
