GOF3 - Manticore: 5 tips to prevail in Mkkt Bkkt's events

Sure, when a space pirate opens fire on you, the urge to blow that bastard to pieces is strong. But sometimes, it might be wiser to just ignore the enemy flak and focus on your main objective. For maximum efficiency, try to find a good balance between shooting down NPCs and carrying our your actual task.

The tough challenges Mkkt Bkkt has in store for you do not only require you to survive in deadly environments and fend off trigger-happy enemies. In addition, you must also always race again the clock. To win precious seconds, use your boost as often as possible!

Once you have picked up an orb in a “Pick Up & Return” challenge, it inflicts damage on your ship for as long as you carry it along. So better make sure your shields are up before you tractorbeam-grab the item of your desire. Otherwise, it will directly affect your hull.

While skilled pilots do not have to upgrade their ship between each and every challenge, you will reach a point where you need more fire power, durability and speed to master Mkkt Bkkt’s demanding tasks. Don’t hesitate to do so. If you beat the final challenge, the exclusive ship you win will already contain all the upgrades you applied to it during the season!

Especially at the first try, some challenges might be a little tough and it might take a test run or two before you got the knack of it. So if you falter, just stand up and try again. You can either obtain new season tickets, which are needed for event participation, for a short amount of Mhaan-tiq or you can wait until your tickets refill over time.
