Gari, T1 on campaigns is even harder than raid IMHO, since you need to infiniplay for 6 days compared to 2 or 3 days in raid. A few changes in the strategy:

- Don't go if you can't put 6-8 hours a day looping H6 or H7. This is required to get about 10-12m points without chains.

- Don't try if you don't have a reasonable amount of chains in stock for the last push day 6 (about 30). Points are raising very slowly without chains, but jump high quite fast with them, so you have to judge your points lead vs time remaining for the other players to raise their own score.

Unfortunately, you'll still need a lot of time, except if you're rich, then put about 15 chains on H7 every day ($25 per day, so $150 for the event...). 15 chains still requires about 1.5 hour of gameplay if you're quick (about 6 min per loop).

You'll also still need some luck, since successfully netting bosses is important for your points. My own strategy was to push as much as I can without chains for 5 days, and then decided early day 6 if I have a chance or not (i.e. already above T1 cut off). I tried to keep at least a 2m points lead day 6.

Specifically for campaigns, raiders aren't required, they just give some ease at stacking points in H8+ instead of H6-7... Oh, FYI, x10 raiders are no use for T1ing, since H8+ is a battlefield only for R6 raiders - x10 raiders are dying before being able to attack in H8 onwards which is pityful...

So in the end, any T1 you might want needs a lot of preparation, determination, time, and luck / money. T1 isn't vacation, it just became doable without paying compared to before. T1 in cmpaigns is een worst than in raid since you'll also have to fight against boredom (tap/scan for 6 hours straight without resorting to any brain activity is really a pain!).

Tips of the day: compared to T2, there is no real safe spot for T1, since the cut off tends to jump high very fast when we are near the end of the event. It was about 1.5m points a day, and jumped for about 3.5m points the last 6 hours...
