Talk:The Gauntlet (Season 11)/@comment-26070920-20170113090619

Not tactics I would normally use, but then this isn't a normal event, except for the few gifted ones bragging about how easy it all is ...

If you want the car ... -But don't have hours and hours to play every day ie. a job, family, friends even maybe ;-) -Don't get more than a couple of ads each day (not even after resetting Ads-ID) -Keep getting red bannered when winning events cleanly And therefore can't make the progress required, are way behind on schedule to get the 350K points in this Gauntlet (I was on 80K after 3 days) consider this:

Don't upgrade the car, or stop upgrading it further, and skip the boss challenges for gold.

-The events in between the Boss Challenges are perfectly doable, fun even dare I say. Reminded me of the good old days of RR3: drive well, try hard in a RS-upgrades only car and you win - like it should be! -I have 3 level 3 upgrades, costing me 130 gold. I skipped 4 or 5 challenges costing me say 150 gold (I think it's less). Challenge 28 and 29 will net you 46.000 for example. I had an easy highest speed challenge and a cup race with everything allowed.

Of course, if I had had the time and the tickets I would have gone for "gold on the car" and lots of shorter runs. But this is going to get me a 700 gold car with 130 worth of gold upgrades & 75 gold for completion (= 905 gold worth) for 130 gold on upgrades and around 150 gold for skipping Bosses. That means I will net the car for under 300 gold. Otherwise I would have had to quit the Gauntley and hope for a sale (usually 50% = 350 gold, no upgrades)

Besides that, it's taken away an extreme lot of annoyance about this Gauntlet, and now I have 3 days left to get 120K. That should be easily doable, even with limited tickets. Quite looking forward to doing that, where the first few days I was only fuming mad like 90% of the racers on this forum.
