Galactic Strife FAQ – 11-2024

General information
It’s time for an all-out PvP battle! Battle and win to gain Reputation, climb the ranks and get rewards during the Galactic Strife event.

In the beginning of the event, all players start with a Reputation score of 500. Whenever you win or lose in PvP battles, your Reputation will be affected. Your aim is to get the highest Reputation score in your server! But be aware that winning against the same player repeatedly in a short time span will lead to lower gains in reputation points.

Benefit from the Reputation bonus that is granted for the first 10 unique player kills of the day!
There are several Reputation Milestones to aim for! You will be rewarded with a reward package for reaching each milestone (one per milestone).

Take advantage of the different Fever Effects during selected hours each day! Enjoy boosts to ships and free repairs at your base or at the nearest gate if your ship is destroyed on Galactic Strife maps.

Collect the Galactic Strife Battle Pass Keys that you can exchange into your favorite rewards!

Please note:
In order to participate in the Galactic Strife event, you are required to be at least Level 8.

The event will also take place on the PvE server, even though it is a PvP event. Here’s how it works:

• If you’re playing on the PvE server, you will also be able to enter the Galactic Strife maps.
• The Galactic Strife maps only consist of 4-1, 4-2, 4-3 and 4-4.
• Map 4-5 is not included!

If you enter a Galactic Strife map via jump gate or by using the Jump CPU, you spawn randomly on the map. The Spawn area will not be in the radiation zone.

Entering a Galactic Strife map from another Galactic Strife map will also spawn you randomly on the map. Exiting the Galactic Strife map will return you to the gate position like normal.

Respawning on the spot after death will work as usual (you will not get shuffled).

Every player will be respawned and shuffled every 30 minutes! This shuffling will occur on all Galactic Strife maps (4-1 to 4-4) and for all players within that Galactic Strife map. This shuffling will randomly change the Galactic Strife map – you will be moved to a random eligible Galactic Strife map instead of a different position. The PvP protection will be activated for 5 seconds after you are shuffled.

You may view the time left until the next shuffle in the Galactic Strife Event Window tab.

On galactic Strife Maps, a countdown will also appear at the top of the screen and in the Log when a shuffle is about to occur soon.

PvP Protection
To avoid spawn kills, the PvP Protection works like this: The PvP protection will be on for 5 seconds after spawning in a Galactic Strife map or when you are shuffled.

If you leave and enter another Galactic Strife map or shoot another player during the 5 seconds, PVP protection will be removed!

If you died 3 times in a row within 60 minutes inside a Galactic Strife map, PvP protection will be activated for 60 minutes. If you have PvP protection and you die and revived in a Galactic Strife map, you will still have your PvP protection on. This PVP protection will not apply if you die on non-Galactic Strife maps!

Please note that only players who have level 17 and below can get a PvP protection. When under PvP protection, you cannot be attacked by other players unless you attack someone else first or if you re-enter a Galactic Strife map.

The PvP protection only gets removed if:

• PvP duration has ended
• You exit a Galactic Strife map and go to a non-Galactic Strife map
• You shoot other players

PvP Protection in PvE Servers
To avoid forcing players into PvP mode when they enter the Galactic Strife maps in PvE servers, there will be a special PvP protection change for both existing PvE servers in Flash and the Ganymede server in Unity.

After entering a Galactic Strife map, the PvP protection will be on for 90 seconds.

If you shoot another player during the 90 seconds, PvP protection will be removed!

If you died 3 times in a row within 60 minutes inside a Galactic Strife map, PvP protection will be activated for 60 minutes. If you have PvP protection and you die and revived in a Galactic Strife map, you will still have your PvP protection on. This PVP protection will not apply if you die on non-Galactic Strife maps!

Please note that only players who have level 17 and below can get a PvP protection. When under PvP protection, you cannot be attacked by other players unless you attack someone else first or if you re-enter a Galactic Strife map.

The PvP protection only gets removed if:

• PvP duration has ended
• You exit a Galactic Strife map and go to a non-Galactic Strife map
• You shoot other players

Reputation System
In the beginning of the event, all players start with a Reputation score of 500. Whenever you win or lose in PvP battles, your Reputation will be affected. Your aim is to get the highest Reputation score in your server! The Reputation rank will remain below the players’ name during the event on all maps.

Reputation can only be increased / decreased while fighting on Galactic Strife Maps: 4-1, 4-2, 4-3 and 4-4. If an opponent shot the player and left the Galactic Strife Map, it’s possible for the opponent to get reputation if the player died on the Galactic Strife Map.

The smaller the difference in reputation between you and your opponent, the more reputation you can gain! If the difference in Reputation is too large, it is possible you do not gain any points. Reputation gain also depends on the amount of damage dealt to the losing opponent. If you deal too little damage, it is possible to not gain any Reputation.

The reputation will be calculated like the following:

• If a damage dealer deals less than 15% of the total damage, they will not get points.
• The reputation difference between the eligible attacker with the highest reputation and the reputation of the losing player determines the:
  • Points lost for the losing player.
  • Total reputation points pool that can be gained for all attackers.
  • In the event that the attacker with the highest reputation did not deal the minimum 15% damage, the next highest eligible reputation player will be used instead.

• Total reputation points pool:
  • The points gained per attacker will be split based on their damage contribution.
  • An example with multiple opponents:
    • Attacker A (reputation = 1000) deals 50% damage to E
    • Attacker B (reputation = 900) deals 20% damage to E
    • Attacker C (reputation = 800) deals 20% damage to E
    • Attacker D (reputation = 700) deals 10% damage to E (Not eligible)
    • Losing Player E (reputation = 600)
    • The total points gained for A, B, C, and D is determined based on the reputation difference between A and E (600 - 1000 = -400; Total points pool = 60 points.
    • The 60 points gained will be divided between each attacker based on their damage dealt.
    • Please note that if this reputation difference is too large, it is possible that the total points gained can be 0 for all attackers (and it will still affect your Reputation per Kill rank!)

• The eventual points gained/loss will now be:
  • Attacker A gains 60 * 50% = 30 points.
  • Attacker B gains 60* 20% = 12 points.
  • Attacker C gains 60* 20% = 12 points.
  • Attacker D gains 0 points due to non-eligibility.
  • Losing Player E loses 60 points.

• Please note that numbers mentioned above are only an example to explain the system and are not accurate to the actual reputation awarded.

Targeting the same player repeatedly also reduces the Reputation gained each time you win. The number of times you win against the same player within a day will be tracked and added to the reputation points calculation.

The time span is reset at 00:00 LST each day.

For example:

• Player A kills Player B in a PvP fight entirely by himself at day 1 (00:01)
  • Player A’s value of “Consecutive Player Wins” against Player B equals 1
  • Player A gains the full reputation gained from killing Player B
• In the next hour, Player A kills Player B again
  • Player A’s value of “Consecutive Player Wins” against Player B equals 2
  • Player A only earns half the reputation gained from killing Player B again
• Player A kills Player B in a PvP fight entirely by himself at day 2 (00:01)
  • Player A’s value of “Consecutive Player Wins” against Player be is reset and equals 1 again
  • Player A earns the full reputation gained from killing Player B

Summary:

• Winning against the same player repeatedly in a short time span will lead to lower gains in reputation points.
• The more opponents that are targeting the same player, the less points will be gained for each attacker.

Clan vs Clan:
Attackers don’t receive points when they kill players from the same clan and players killed by others from the same clan also do not lose any points!

If there are other attackers from a different clan in the same fight, the point loss from them is still counted.

Clan vs. Clan kills also don’t count into the ranking score.

Reputation Bonus
For the first 10 unique player kills of the day, the reputation is increased:

• This only affects the winning player’s end gain. It doesn’t affect the loss amount from the opponent.
• The list of unique players killed along with the bonuses will be reset at 00:00 LST each day.
• Reputation gain is 1.5x.

New Ship Designs
There will be 2 new ship designs for the “Orcus” ship coming together with the event:

• Wildfire Orcus Ship Design (available as a reward in the Reputation rank)
• Strife Orcus Ship Design (available as a reward in the Reputation per kill rank)

Crates: Flux Crate and Mire Crate

Flux Crate – Bright, fluorescent yellow crates that contain bursts of energy can be safely harnessed for a short duration.

The Flux Crate increases your ship’s speed by 10% for a short duration. You can collect the Flux Crate by clicking on it and it grants you speed boost for a short duration. If you already have an active Flux Crate speed boost, it cannot be picked up.

Please note: This speed boost cannot raise your total speed above the cap of 750! If you observe that your speed increases above the 750 cap, it is likely that you have Promerium ore (which gives a 20% speed boost) in effect which can go above the 750 cap!

Mire Crate – Bright, fluorescent red crates that contain bursts of harmful energy that can cause quite the chaos when there are pursuers hot on your trail.

The Mire Crate instantly reduces nearby enemy ships’ speed by 20% for a short duration. You can pick it up and all players within a certain radius around you instantly gets their speed reduced (does not affect party members).

General information
Both crate effects can be stacked with each other. But the Mire de-buff effect strength will not stack if you already have an active de-buff. Nevertheless, the timer will reset and the effect will get prolonged.

• Players with PvP protection can still pick up these crates and obtain the buffs or get de-buffed.
• The P.E.T. auto looter cannot pick up these crates.
• Box doubler doesn’t affect the crate effects.
• The Flux Crate speed buff applies to your ship only. It doesn’t apply to the same party/faction or clan members.
• The Mire Crate Speed de-buff may apply to other ships of the same faction/clan.
• The Buffs and De-Buffs apply to ships only and it doesn’t apply to your P.E.T. or to opponent P.E.T.s.

Ranking Rewards
During the event there will be two different types of ranking: the Reputation Ranking and the Reputation Per Kill Ranking.

Important: A minimum of 10 PvP kills is required to enter both rankings.

If 2 players have the same score, their position will be determined by the following:

• The time is taken (who’s first to reach the ranking position?)
  • Example 1: if player A scores 2,000 points first, and player B scores 2,000 points second, player A will be ranked first, player B second.
  • Example 2: If player A scores 2,000 points first, player B then scores 3,000 points after, player B will be first and player A will be second
  • However, if player B loses 1,000 points afterwards and his score drops to 2,000, this means that B is the second person to reach the 2,000 points score. In this case, player A will be ranked first, player B will be ranked second.

The ranking details can be seen via Webpage in “Rankings”. The ranking board is only updating every 30 minutes.
