Welcome to the War Thunder Summer Quest! This time, the event will take place in a new format: all you need to get prizes is just to earn mission points! Basically any activity in battle will get you closer to the rewards.

The number of tasks you need to complete to get the top vehicles immediately to your account is now smaller, but if you want to trade coupons on the market, you will need an additional upgrade that requires a little more effort to obtain.

For each completed task you will get a specific prize: a trophy with useful items, coupons for decals, camouflages for the event vehicles, player icons or decorations. Low ranked vehicles this time will be represented only by a tank but in future marathons we plan to alternate vehicle types for this prize.

See you on the battlefield!

From 11:00 GMT on the 9th of August until 11:00 GMT on the 29th of August

Participate and get prizes!

Tasks
To get one Mark of distinction for a tanker/pilot/sailor, earn 40,000 mission points in random battles from rank III and higher (from rank I for event vehicles) on the corresponding vehicle type in 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 September 1st without completing the tasks.

You can do that in the menu “Nickname → Achievements → Summer Quest → Tasks for tankers/pilots/sailors.

Detailed terms
  • The exact terms of each task can be found in the “Nickname → Achievements → Summer Quest” window.
  • To get a Mark of distinction, you need to complete a task on 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 on vehicles Rank III and above, but also on 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 September 1st, 2022. Make sure you pick the right achievement category: for tankers, pilots and sailors.
  • Prizes received in the form of coupons will be available for trading on the market from September 2nd, 2022. 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 from which your tradable coupon can be sold can be found 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 Quest” window.
