Guide for BH Hunters (DIV I)

Day 1,683, 18:41 Published in USA Bolivia by GunnarP

With the addition of Rockets and DIV I citizens being able to fire off a 50K Rocket then produce one more and fire off a second my guide for Battle Hero (BH) Hunting needed a little updating. All of the general principles for how I earned 16 BH achievements in Division I still apply.

1. Save your bazookas; use them for BH.

The principle still applies; however, expect to have to spend 110K in damage to guarantee that BH. I saw two BH won today with 38K and 42K but any bozo with a rocket could have stolen it. It will take 4 Bazookas (3 uses each) at minimum to win it.

2. Get mobile & Find a small battlefield.
Find a battle field that has only one state versus another state. A country with 20 plus allies will bring larger numbers into the fight. South America and the Middle East are nice to take a look at. Many citizens are afraid to drop 40 to 100 CC to move and take a look at Battle History and win 2 Gold for BH. When searching take a look at the Battle History and what is winning the BH. If it's multiple ones over 100K move on. I like getting on the losing side.

3. Let them know your there.
Get out early and let the rocket holders know that 2 rockets won't steal you BH. Wait to when the wall gets to a 1000. As it get closer fire off something again to let them know your watching.

4. Expect the last minute snipes (sneaks).
Be ready for anyone to drop 100K damage in the last seconds.

Battle Hero vs. True Patriot

JB Battlemaster brought up a great point that one could have earned more gold going for the True Patriot Achievement, which pays 5 Gold vs. 2 Gold for Battle Hero.

It takes 100K damage for your country to earn your first True Patriot and 500K for your second. So drop 600K and you get 10 Gold plus you could win 1-2 BH based on what goes on. However consider the fact that many drop 400 to 500 K in USA battle because of all of the MPPs. In this case I won 32 gold going for Battle Hero and you would have won up to 14 Gold with Patriot. This was before the Rocket that could deal 50K damage. Now it costs DOUBLE. If your using ROCKETS no worries.

Now you will make some progress toward your Mercenary Achievement fighting in other countries. But I still haven't achieved it.

With the addition of Rockets it make it less economical. BUT WHO CARES-- CAUSE WE GOT THAT BH!!!!! 😛
