*Lunar New Year

Expand

The Lunar New Year is a fortnight-long celebration of spring, new beginnings, and good fortune in Asia, as well as many other places around the world. It is based on the cycles of the moon, so the date of the Lunar New Year is different each year, but usually falls in January or February. Each Lunar Year is named after one of twelve animals (Rat, Ox, Tiger etc.), and each animal has its own unique characteristics.

Lunar New Year


January 25, 2020, 05:00 UTC through February 6, 2020, 05:00 UTC

How It Works

Starting on January 25, you will find special daily combat tasks named after the 12 animals of the Chinese Zodiac in your Missions tab. There will be a total of 12 fun-filled missions, and completing them will reward you with the event’s currency—Golden Coins. You can see how many Coins you have earned by checking the bonus Lunar New Year Sleepy Cat mission in your client.

Additionally, from January 25 at 06:00 CET through January 28 at 06:00 CET (UTC+1), you will be able to celebrate the upcoming Year of the Rat with two great bonuses: x5 XP on your first victory of the day for each vehicle, and a better conversion rate between Elite and Free XP (1 = 40 Elite XP turned into 40 Free XP)!

Each mission can be completed only once per account.

The number of Golden Coins you have earned will also be displayed on the event landing page (available until February 13). You will need them to complete the Five Elements of Chinese geomancy: Wood, Fire, Earth, Water, and Metal, schematically depicted on this dashboard.

Each Element costs 300 Golden Coins to complete and completing each of the first four—Wood, Fire, Earth, or Water—will grant you one universal* “zero-Skill” crew member (Commander, Loader, Gunner, and Driver) with the Brothers in Arms Perk.

As 2020 is the Year of the Metal Rat on the Lunar calendar, you will need to complete all the other Elements to gain access to the Metal Element. Completing the Metal Element will reward you with two valuable Crew Books: a Training Manual (containing 250,000 XP for each crew member) and a Personal Training Manual (containing 850,000 XP for a selected crew member).

A crew member for whom you can select the nationality and vehicle class and tier. The only fixed variable is his Major qualification.

Get More Golden Coins!
