Tasks

To get one Mark of distinction for a tanker/pilot/sailor, earn 40,000 mission points in random battles in rank III or higher (from rank I for event vehicles) in the corresponding vehicle type with the corresponding game mode. Points multiplier that varies based on vehicle rank and difficulty level is stated in the task description. The tasks are all the same and are renewed every two days at 11:00 GMT.

Missed Marks of distinction can be purchased for Golden Eagles until August 31st without completing the tasks. You can do that in the menu: Nickname → Achievements → Summer Extreme → Tasks for tankers/pilots/sailors.

Ice Cream Bucket

A unique opportunity to receive items from the past summer events! From August 8th until September 4th you can find an “Ice Cream Bucket” crate and its “Dessert Spoon” key in the item shop. “Ice Cream Bucket” contains unique decals, decorations, vehicles and camouflages from all past summer events. Some items from past events appear as coupons for the first time, and you can trade them on the Marketplace! You can also find Silver Lions, boosters, universal backups, wagers and orders.

“Ice Cream Bucket” costs 10,000 Silver Lions, and “Dessert Spoon” costs 50,000 Silver Lions. You can also earn “Dessert Spoon” for 3 and 10 Marks of distinction in the “Summer Extreme” event. On 12:00 GMT, September 4th, all “Ice Cream Buckets” and “Dessert Spoons” will disappear from your inventories, so be sure to use them until that time!

Detailed terms

• The exact terms of each task can be found in the “Nickname → Achievements → Summer Extreme” window.
• To get a Mark of distinction, you need to complete a task in the corresponding vehicle type in the corresponding game mode. For example, a Mark of distinction for a pilot can be received only by playing Air battles (AB/RB/SB).
• You can complete the tasks in multiplayer battles in all game modes except for “Assault”.
• You can complete the tasks not only in vehicles of Rank III and above, but also in lower rank event vehicles. You could receive those in large events such as winter and summer marathons, WWII chronicles, BP seasons and craft marathons. In the vehicle cards of such vehicles you can find the names of events in which said vehicles first became available in the game.
• You have received the Mark of distinction if the achievement’s color is golden.
• Missed Marks of distinction can be purchased for Golden Eagles in the Achievements window until August 31st, 2023. Make sure you pick the right achievement category: for tankers, pilots and sailors.
• Prizes received in the form of tradable coupons will be available for trading on the market from September 1st, 2023. The time from which the coupon can be traded can be viewed in the game in the coupon description. The option of trading each coupon separately depends on the time of its receipt and doesn’t depend on the vehicle type.
• For 8 Marks of distinction you receive an untradable coupon for a vehicle. Upon activating it, you will instantly receive a corresponding vehicle. If you do not wish to use the vehicle and want to sell the coupon on the Marketplace instead, you need the “Upgrade for coupon” item.
• For 10 Marks of distinction you receive an untradable “Upgrade for coupon” item. You can use it to make the vehicle coupon you received tradable and then sell it on the Marketplace. The date on which a traded coupon becomes available for sale can be seen in its description in the game.
• The “Upgrade for coupon” item has an expiration date. You can either use it or exchange it for Warbonds before it expires.
• PlayStation and Xbox players will be able to exchange decal coupons for similar ones. The exchange is available in the “Workshop → Exchange items “Summer Extreme” window.

See you on the battlefield!
