When to Collect?

I don't understand when to collect from the Events.

For example, is a red 3 the max you can collect?
For Challenge Victories, there is a 0/9 Trophies.  If I complete 9 wins, should I collect then?  Is that the max?
If I gather 300 cards for Gather the Troops is that the max?
If you collect early, does that limit on where you can rank when the event is over?

I have just been waiting for the end to collect, but I am wondering if it would be better to collect earlier.

Thanks in advance for clairifing.

    Hi @Target_Practice . Here's a link to our Participating In An Event guide, that should help you out a bit.

    To directly answer your questions though:
    1. Could you clarify what you mean by "red 3"?
    2. 0/9 means that in order to reach the max reward, you'll need to win 9 Challenge Missions. There are 3 "milestones" though (3, 6, 9 Victories) and you can collect those rewards as you achieve them.
    3. 300 Cards is the number of cards you'll need to collect in order to earn the top reward for Gather the Troops, however that is not a limit to how many cards you can collect in general.
    4. No. Collecting early does not influence your rank.
    Hope that helps!

    1. Could you clarify what you mean by "red 3"?
    Once a milestone is met, the green "collect" button comes up with a red number.  Is "3" the max?

    Thanks for answering.

    If the collect button is highlighted, hit the button and collect.  If you pass more than one threshold, you can continue to press the collect button to get all of the rewards.

    you can collect rewards as soon as you get the milestone, it doesnt make a difference

    I collected coins from the Joe's Total War Victories, but I am no longer gaining rewards in that category. I think I am missing something here. Is it caped at 3?

    There are three thresholds for each progression reward.  Is that what you mean?  There's also a placement reward at the end of the event.

    Yes, I think you answered my question. Once there is a red 3, that is the max and it's okay to cash out and try to open event boxes early.
