Rixa and Desverger, thanks very much for the info! 
Well I dropped like 1k ranks overnight. Guess it really is a global event lol.. Went from rank 700 to 1800. I'm on 18k points.
Still, the gap isn't big. I actually think I could easily finish in the top 1500 if I wanted to. I still have like 25 stamina fruits and now like 4 SSF.
These urgent quests though. Just finished the second one today. Micro'd the hell out of it and still cost me another revival fruit Just one small mistake and you're done. So much danger, multiple poison waves, multiple bomber waves, REALLY hard hitting boss.
I wish I had Trystan ramped up. I'd be doing so much better on those. I may even skip the third urgent quest and work on getting to the last stage and grind the defend quest during fever time. I only get one fever time a day and it's during work so it may not even be available to me. Depends on what's going on. Still, there's just not that many people participating in the event. LB2 selene should be pretty easy. Or really I may just opt to ring them all and save for Frau.

My suggestion is the highest level defender quest you have available with a nimpha friend.
Maybe, the points from free quests at the end are 3 x the ones from the beginning. So if you Super stamina those, the points stack up nicely.
Edit: Then again, the points from the defend quests throughout are generous anyway, if you can handle them. Info here.
I don't see defender quest, where are they? I am only at the second location at the moment.
There's one in the second battlefield and third battlefield stages. I haven't gotten higher than that yet but I'm sure there are more later.
edit:
wow
Ahaha.. well there's a whale for you. Already a level 80 Trystan, rank 91. Nice.
Alright, tested some of the the Defend and Free Quests around Black Fortress and Fifth Battlefield.
The Defend Quest in the Black Fortress is impossible for me. Would require 1 or 2 revival fruit to complete.
The Free Quest in the Black Fortress is possible, however due to bomb guys and other obstacles, it is not the most time efficient for the fever timer.
I found that the Defend Quest in the Fourth Battlefield is most efficient per AP for me. (I can actually complete it reliably)
The Fifth Battlefield Free quest is most efficient per time, so I will do that one during fever time. (I can go full speed on this one)

That's some good info. I'm still in the Third battlefield. Have a ways to go. Been doing the obnoxious urgent quests.
What's your team look like?
My party takes too much damage from normal attacks. So I think Melvina isn't really cutting it....
Why are you doing them now? Not saving up for fever time?
The urgent quests are by far the best points per AP, but they are way too hard for me to grind out during fever time.
Requires a lot of micro managing for my team and the latest one I did even required 2 revival fruits.I think it would be more efficient to run a defender quest I can nuke in < 1 min on 2x speed over and over.

Ah right, for me it took about 3 minutes each time so it seemed like a good payoff for time/AP, I only micromanaged during the boss fights at certain points (IE after the bombers had all been picked off.) Helps that combining Melvina + Minimo means that my outfield soldiers always have a good amount of health. Helped me get to 33,000 points.] rather quickly.
Whats your team?
I managed to catch fever time last night without heavily disrupting my sleep. Made it to the end of the main quest line, finished off the urgent quests, and did some grinding on the Black Fortress defend quest. I was afraid I'd drop significantly in rank if I didn't hit the fever time, but I've actually gone up to 159. I think I'm going to lay off the stamina fruits for a while and see how this plays out. I think between regular and super stamina I've used 16 fruits, but I've earned ~8 from rewards.
Yes.
I don't think there's an in game indicator unfortunately. You just need to know the times.
Does defend quest trigger fever time?
Im addicted to this game that i intend to wake up at 3am just for the fever time. But my full ap is only 56. So im planning to do defend quest to trigger as ap is only 10. Main quest now is 14 ap
Yes.
Here it is now 14:17 EET and next is 22:00 EET. 7h43mins from

Team is ok:
70 Coro (maxed wild boar)
60 Lindsey (maxed grief)
45 Melvina (maxed B staff)
36 Trystan :/ (half filled assassin's blade)
sub:
50 dusty (maxed volunteer)
22 millagen just for the defense boost
I'm debating replacing Millagen for my 45 Ryubia or something. She's pretty useless outside of the defense buff.
I have a 26 or something Minimo but that seems a waste. She's too low to help. :/
Point was that how many people would do 70k points in this event and run 40 level Hero as leader? I kinda bet that hero has A rank weapon too
.One rank 91 player on my friendlist had Trystan maxed to 80 levels on friday
. Mine is juts 47 level, takes ages to raise it.Point was that how many people would do 70k points in this event and run 40 level Hero as leader? I kinda bet that hero has A rank weapon too

Yeah. It takes a long time to get him up there. I wish I could run the warrior daily today but can't spend any AP outside of the event.

He probably just put the Hero in the team 1 leader spot and used some other team.
Yeah an he is not interest of friend loans & ac
. Anyways nice style to run hero as leader.dakkumauji

you can do it!
I just hit 90 right now.
Don't think I can get to 120 for the hammer but I think I'll aim for at least 100 for more tickets.
Awesome. So in 19 min.
Anyone know if there's a new defender quest worth trying to get to with a stamina fruit in Lost village? I'm two battles from reaching that if I want to burn a fruit. If not, I'll probably just spam the hell out of the defender quest on the third battlefield.
edit: Found it. There is a defend quest there.. However, I may just try and do the last urgent quest.. Looking at this video, doesn't appear to be any bombers - at least for the first stage - that was the worst part.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?t=23&v=R8774V5FmzY
I don't remember any bombers on the third urgent quest. I had some trouble with the second one due to them, but I remember the third urgent being easier due to the absence.
Edit: Welp I guess my memory is terrible then. Apparently there were bombers and I somehow forgot about them. Sorry.
Yeah. I just did the first step on the third urgent. It was WAY easier. Going to do the other 3 while fever.
edit: oh god. Bombers on the third stage.

There are some Bombers on the third part so beware, it was still pretty easy though.
Yep. Last two had bombers. Much easier though. Only one wave of them and it was after I had killed the boss. Much better.
Got through all the urgent quests now. Grinding the defender. Not even sure why I'm trying so hard. My schedule isn't going to let me finish high in this. Meh.
No way I'll be able to do the last two day's fevers. I have baseball games with my son. Guess Friday I'll use all my SSF or something.
edit: Well we'll see how the rankings look when they update after this fever. I went from 20k points to 50,700. I now have my selene from points and the two premium tickets. That's nice. I did the whole third urgent quest and then just spammed the Lost village defender quest on 2x auto. It was the highest level I've unlocked so far. Used like 3-4 stamina fruits and had a level up.
I have a feeling people will drop major money in the last two days to try and get that 1500 rank. I'll get pushed out for sure. Just hoping I can get the 7500 I guess. Selene is pretty good with the wave heal. LB2 is the minimum I'd keep her. I'm still thinking I might ring the copies though. Dunno. 60 rings vs another warrior. Don't even have the cost to stick her in the sub party yet.

Jesus. What exactly did you grind to get 70k points in an hour?? I could have been a little more efficient if I was stronger for the urgent quests but we're talking maybe I could have squeezed out another 10k points to give me 40k for the hour.

Finished the story and got 2 Selene's. Up another 35k this fever time and I'm curious to see how the rankings look when they update.
The bombers aren't that bad in the last events. They come in two of the waves but you can simply walk a single unit in and back up as they go off.

I did Second Battlefield. It did cost me like 4 Super Stamina Fruit I guess (For an hour). I was able to mix it up, so I'd use a Stamina Fruit, go through my AP, then a regular Stamina Fruit.
Hope that another run of this will guarantee me a 1500 slot, it doesn't seem that competitive.
Wow. I guess the additional SSF paid off there. Just the defender quest in second battlefield?
edit: and no, there barely seem to be 10k people in the running. It should be pretty easy to get in the top 7500 and more than doable to get in the top 1500 with some effort the last couple days.
Yeah I've definitely not got the balance right. It's taking me 2.5+ mins to clear Battlefield 4 defense quest - I had about 20 AP wasted per super stamina fruit. Gave up after using 4 and will try a different approach tomorrow.
30k pts earned in about 1hr 20min.
Rank update in 1hr 15min.

You guys do know that you'll get a fresh fever time after it's up without a SSF within the hour right?
If you start a battle with less than a minute left, you'll not only get the bonus points for the current fever, but you'll automatically get a new fever. I had fever up the entire hour without a single SSF.
Now if I wanted I could have started using SSF to go past that hour, but I'm saving mine for Friday (my last fever day).
