JWA Weekly Events Nov 8 - Nov 14: Cute Dinosaurs

Hello everyone. Welcome to “Weekly Events” with Kelociraptor and Lucus1355 from the ‘GamePress JWA’ Discord to let you know what’s coming up in this Jurassic World Alive week.

Kelociraptor and Lucus1355 look over the week, as well as giving insight to the creature’s available to dart in:

CUTE DINOSAURS WEEK!

Also, check out our exciting, new section at the end of this featured article!! 

Before we dive in to the week, we'll break down how the weekly event calendar works.

First, each day is considered started at 10am Eastern on that day. It is possible that wherever you live, it might actually be the previous or next day, so we wanted to help clarify how they determine what day it is. At this time, event creatures & strike towers will be updated as applicable. This information is also noted on the calendar.

Ever wonder why some weeks we’re given 45 attempts on Common’s and others only 18 or 27? The reason for this is that the volume of attempts is a simple math calculation based on the rarity and number of options. Take the rarity base number and multiply by the number of options and voila, you have your total allowed attempts! Having more variety in the options yields that many more attempts. The flip side is it may be more difficult to find the creature(s) you favour. Below details the number of attempts assigned to each rarity which is used to determine how many attempts you receive (though occasionally, they stray from this math). This is the total you are allotted across all options, so it is important to select your choices wisely.

• Common = 9 per
• Rare = 6 per
• Epic = 3 per
• Legendary/Unique = Varies but tends to usually be 1 total
• Omega = 3 per

They recently started putting the number of attempts on the calendar again and sometimes stray from the above. Refer to the calendar for the confirmed counts. Each rarity has a different length of time the spawn lasts followed by a different length of time until respawn after de-spawn. Common’s and Rare’s will last about 35 minutes with about 5 minutes between. Epic’s last about 30 minutes with about 5 minutes in between. Legendary’s & Unique’s last about 27 minutes with about 3 minutes in between. Many thanks to Lilikoi of Dom Tuoretto for helping us nail down those cycle times! Omega’s, approximately last about 22 minutes with about 2 minutes in between.

All strikes and trials are represented on the calendar with the level of difficulty along with how long they last (1 day or 2 days). The trials are shown along the very bottom in grey boxes.

REWARDS

(Used to unlock Unique Creatures' Enhancements.)

GamePress is excited to be able to provide weekly cash links worth $50 cash in game! The code can only be claimed once a week and you must click on it using the device you play JWA with. It will be active from Wednesday, 12am Eastern - Tuesday, 11:59pm Eastern every week. This is a promotional code provided courtesy of Ludia, Inc and is exclusive to GamePress. We will post this link in an article we publish each week. We will post all articles on our Twitter so follow us at NewsJWA on Twitter so you don't miss out! 

If you enjoy our content, please help let others know this is the source of the cash links people just post for the taking all over social media. The same goes for YouTuber Gaming Beaver. All links have a purpose behind them, and that is to promote some kind of media and drive traffic. Most people simply do not know there is actually a purpose behind these links, and we'd like to try to educate as many as we can. Take a moment to politely explain this in these posts. It isn't free money some random stranger on the internet whipped up. Every time these links are shared, it is taking opportunity away from an intended purpose. Please think about that or maybe find some time to visit Gaming Beaver, GamePress JWA, and the Ludia social medias.

*We can not control when Ludia officially deploys these links, but these are the times they are planned to be active.

Welcome to this new section called 'Survey Says'. We'll be giving you a survey and then seeing what you Explorers voted for as your answer.

A recent survey, 'Omegas Ultimate Tier List' saw the question asked: 

"Which Omega creatures do you find/expect you can rely on most to performed best and be 'Top Tier' team selections in Skill Tournaments?"

'93 Classic T. Rex came out on top, with Clever Girl in second and Fukuiraptor in third.

The overall results are as follows:

For now, you can still vote and this will be an ongoing survey, so you'll be able to alter your answers in the future as your Omegas grow in levels and abilities.

This week, we'll be looking at your view as to who is the cutest creature in the game. This will include all creatures in the game so we can really find out as to who has prehistoric cuteness.

The winners will be featured in next weeks article. VOTE NOW FOR THE 'JURASSIC WORLD CUTIE' HERE!!

We would really love to hear about what you plan to dart and why, along with any other opinions that you can share in conversation by joining the ‘GamePress JWA’ Discord Server!!

With that, from Kelly and Lucus1355, and the GamePress JWA Discord, thank you for reading and we hope you enjoy the day!!!
