    Tempests Guide to Attacking Merits


    I will be updating these,adding new content slowly. All addons are welcome.I will give the path, that i followed / and will follow when aiming for attacking medals and honors.I am adding kill streak as a special section as it is one of most difficult honors to get,especially if you are in a faction



    This guide will cover the following

    • Attacking Camo
    • Chaining Merits
    • Finishing Hit Merits
    • Other Attacking Honors
    • Bounty Honors
    • Attacking Medals
    • Bounties
    • Critical Hits
    • Respect Earned


    General Attacking Merits:

    This section will include Camo's, Bounties ,Critical Hit merits ,Finishing Hit merits and as title said general attacking ones Ok first of all i assume you have decent stats for your level. Now you should get 11 weapons, one for each category that you like







    Now we will equip a weapon.Let us do the difficult ones first.So equip a machinery weapon and temperory weapon.Goto settings and change your attack preferences to 100% melee weapon and others at zero.



    Attacking :



    Since you are ready let us start hitting people.I would recommend taking a xanax so that you can do 16 attacks(150 +250) or 14 attacks(100+250) without a donator pack.If you can't afford either then you can do 4 attacks at a time.If you can are aiming for ssl,then take a lsd then you can do extra 2 attacks(50 energy)



    Regarding temp weapons :Only use these,when you are sure you can kill the enemy with it.We will be doing temp and machinery at same time ideally you can complete both of them in first 200 attacks



    Now you should also start bountying people,and claiming it yourself so that we can get those merits too.Use tabs so that you can attack as soon as you bounty



    Total number of Merits : 9


    Since we completed machinery and temporary weapons, it is time for us to equip our next weapon.Let us equip Minigun and a Slashing weapon

    We will continue our table from where we left it



    *If you didn't get this award by now,you will probably get it before you complete the weapon merits


    Total no of merits = 9(previous) + 8(current) = 17


    Now you have to do two things.First is to bounty this guy for 10m,and attack and claim it in a second(use tabs)






    Total no of Merits = 17(previous) + 13 = 30



    At last! we have completed all weapon merits and bounty merits and got thirty merits too.



    Next attacking merits are pretty straightforward.Since you have tried out every type of weapon, now choose your favorite among them and sell the others if you don't need them any more.If you got attached to them,then keep it :)



    Crit merits can be achieved a lot earlier if you invest some merits on to that special







    Total merits = 30 + 9 = 39



    There is a last (40) critical hit merit for 10k Crits,achieving that is going to take a long amount of time.



    Chaining



    This section deals with chaining merits and respect merits, I would recommend tackle these merits with above attacking merits



    Let us start with Basic Chaining Bonus Merits.Note that you need to hospitalize targets to get these merits



    Total Merits = 40 + 5 = 45



    Respect is gained when you hospitalize a target from warbase during a chain.Before chaining I would recommend to download greasemonkey / tampermonkey for Firefox/Chrome and install vinkunn's Warbase Extended Script



    After installing the script and select following settings,this will hide the enemies you cannot attack






    Note the Bonus hits(not regular hits give extra respect.10th hit gives extra 10 respect,25th hit gives extra 25 respect and so on



    Also only hitting during bonus hits(10,25,50,75,100) is a bad practice and is frowned upon .If you want a bonus, please check with other people who are hitting in the chain. It is a good practice to stop hitting 3 hit before bonus and call out the next 3 hits. In order to advance chain counter you should hospitalize the enemy, mugging/leaving doesn't work.



    If the chain timer reaches zero , the chain will end .The general practice is to chain till 100,wait till the timer time out and begin next chain.



    Retaliation bonus: If you or your faction member hospitalizes an enemy who has hospitalized one of your faction members within the past 10 minutes, you will get bonus respect and this hit is called retaliation hit



    Total Merits = 45 + 10 = 55



    Kill Streak


    In my opinion it is best to tackle this when you have new player protection(for first fourteen days).


    • Some Guidelines for easier life when you attempt this honor.
    • It is best to do this when you are not in a faction
    • Avoid the Global/Trade Chat Completely
    • Also avoid forums too
    • A single loss(attacks or defends) can reset your entire progress.
    • If you can buy losses( as defends do count)
    • Try to do at least 40 attacks a day.
    • Do not travel as you will probably get mugged
    • Hopefully you will get it in 3-4 days as the longer you drag it, your chance for getting attacked increases
    • Try to kill low stat inactives
    • Keep your stealth on
    • Please don't try to get it during a competition(Eg Dog Tags)
    • Keep your bazaars closed and don't sell anything in item market either
    • Try to use refill daily, that is extra 6 attacks,using a fhc is also good.






    Total Merits =55+8=63



    Defends and Runaways



    You will get a defend when your opponent attacks you and he losses the fight.



    There are two types of runaways.First is when you initiate an attack and successfully runs away from target.



    The second type is enemies run away.You will get a Enemies Run Away when your opponent attacks you and successfully runs away from you.



    A warning : If you do a lot of runaways there is a chance that your title will change to coward.


    If you are looking to do runaways, i would recommend Joining a ten star Card Dealership.The ten star special of car dealership gives - 95% increased run away chance

    If you want other people to run away from you,then i would recommend not doing Bachelor of Health Sciences.As completing it will grant you - Gain a 50% decrease in chance of an opponent running away from you in battle






    If you win 1000 defends and 1000 attacks, you will get 007 honor.


    Total Merits = 63 + 7 = 70




    Total Merits =70+3=73



    Total Merits = 73 + 3 = 76

    Other Attacking Merits


    • Blood Money : To get this honor you have make more than 1m from a single mugging
    • Deadlock: Attack/ defend and talemate 100 times

    Total Merits = 76 + 2 = 78

    Woah, very expansive! Good going, Tempest. After your Perks guide, I expected nothing less of this one.

    Nice compilation, well done. I wouldn't recommend a very fast pace for brand new players, though. New players are probably better off earning money and gaining stats than attacking for merits. Most of the merits will come naturally sooner or later.

    If you want to stalemate with Cheburntest1 , then your stat wont matter(he has yet to hit me, and he has a large health pool).Just attack this guy and after 25 moves , you will automatically stalemate
