Weekly Task Force?

Hi folks,

Jax the newb is back for another question! Almost 50, so I'm guessing I should figure out some of this stuff by now. =P

Some people in my coalition chat were recently talking about doing the 'weekly' task force. Now, I have a general understanding about what strike and task forces are, but this weekly bit has me confused.

1. They said this week's task force was the "Renault" task force (red side). How did they find this out, and on what day does it change?
2. Are other task forces locked except for this one, or does it do something special by being the weekly one? Just trying to figure out why it's called as such.

I have a feeling I had a third question, but for the life of me I can't remember it, so I'll reply if I think of it. Thanks in advance for any help! =)

Jax

for question 1 see here

for question 2, lvl 50 toons who have unlocked alpha slot will earn a notice of the well the first time they complete it, for non-50s they will receive a very large xp bonus, both of the bonuses are once per week per toon

Also all characters (50 or not) get bonus merits the first time they do the WST in a given week.

Precisely, the bonus XP is equal to 1/2 a level at your current level. Which generally makes them dingfests for low-ish levels.

Apostrophe guidelines.

Yep. The XP is approximately five bars, though the devs have said they can artificially inflate or reduce those numbers if they feel like it (e.g. giving less reward to faster TFs, giving more reward to tougher TFs)

Even in the 40s, you can get 2+ levels out of a TF depending on various factors, speed vs. kill all, rested exp.
