Guaranteed N7 black weapon in victory pack apart from the N7 in commendation pack? For the first time, Bioware has given a worthwhile incentive to complete community goal.


I agree. 1mil credits would be nice too :P

So, this weekend I have a 1 in 2 chance of a Valiant, but it's more likely I'll get the Eagle, or two more upgrades for the Crapsader (yay for me, I have the Crapsader 3 already).

What I would love is if the Commendation pack allowed us to PICK which weapon we get, and then a random N7 in the Victory pack.

Then I could get the Valiant at last (just before Bioware/EA nerf it :devil:).


Any math experts in the house? I think that technically you (we) don't have a 1 in 2 chance to get a valiant, but two 1 in 5 chances to get a valiant. Is that right? I'm not a math guy.Image IPB


2 1 in 4 chances. I believe a 7 in 16 chance to get a valiant this weekend.


Oops. I imagined an N7 assault rifle in my headImage IPB

Couldn't it be ultra rare not N7?
I've tried all I can, still no ultra rares... Even in PSP


Ah, another victim of the evil RNG!

I love how many youtube videos there are of people saving 2 million credits and then openning 20 PSPs and getting nothing but character cards, and all ones they have gotten already.

It's a pitty that the Bioware points market so heavily disincentivises Bioware from weighting against Character cards you already have fully upgraded. All my classes sit at level 20 most of the time (why promote? a higher N7 score just makes it harder to find matches since the last patch), so they are totally valueless ("Congrats, you just got 250k XP for your Engineer you never promote!") or, worse, just insulting.

At the end of the day, Bioware is losing out, because people are sick of buying Bioware points and getting character cards they already have. Everyone is doing their utmost to disuade people agains Bioware points, and now they have a great argument to convince people not to buy. I know I certainly have managed to disuade people against it using the character cards dilemma as leverage.

Event on silver is good. Now bronze and silver folk will stay on silver and don't invade gold.

LOL, you can have my Collector rifle! It's useless. It just seems to annoy the enemy rather than doing any real damage.
The N7 weapons are a mixed bag: the Hurricane and Valiant are awesome and usuable by anyone, with little practice. The Crusader (or Crapsader as I have named it) is a pain to use but does AWESOME damage (but did I mention how painful it is to use?), the Eagle is a joke ("Here, have an inferior weapon BUT IT HAS N7 on it!") and the hillariously underpowered Collector Riffle.
They nerfed the Collector rifle so people couldn't buy 10 phone covers from Razer and have a cheat weapon, forgetting where that left anyone who loved the CR from ME2 and who baught just one item from Razer.
So, as discussed, you are welcome to my CR1 :)

 So does this mean that since I don't have any of the new classes yet, I'm completely screwed? Because that would be super.

Extraction with a rebellion character can be on gold or silver. A retrieval mission can be on any difficulty.

To be clear: The Rebellion Pack squad member does NOT have to be the one who extracts. They just have to participate in the mission and at least one squad member has to extract.

Retrieval is the new mission objective that got added in Rebellion. So your squad must play a retrieval mission and at least one person from teh squad must be extracted at the end.

The Commendation and Victory Packs will be giving a guaranteed N7 weapon. The N7 weapons that have the N7 in the name- N7 Valiant, N7 Crusader, N7 Eagle, or N7 Hurricane.



:devil:


Thank you very much for the precision ^_^

Apologies if what I'm about to ask has already been answered, but I'm short on time and can't look through 10+ pages for the answer...

A few questions about this weekend op... The first, Complete 100K retrieval missions... That's going to be pretty easy to achieve, but will that be on all difficulties or just one (Only Gold? Silver? Bronze?). Second... the personal goal. Does that mean you have to get a extraction on Silver with a Rebellion class character of your own... or be in a squad that has one?

Ever since Rebellion came out, I've spent credits I earn hoping to get a new character (spent over 1.5 million so far) and all I've gotten from Rebellion is the Reeger Carbine II... So if you HAVE to have a Rebellion character yourself to get this personal goal, that leaves me out >.<.... and is poor planning on BW's part thinking everyone has at least one Rebellion character unlocked.

If I can't get the personal goal, because I haven't unlocked any of the new classes, then that's pretty stupid, and gives me NO reason to join in...

Thanks Bioware.

I still haven't gotten one of my packs from last week anyway... So I might not even bother. Good luck though!

So wait, now we get an N7 weapon in both the Victory AND Commendation packs, or have the Comm packs been changed?

If it's in both, I dunno about that...

"Personal Goal: Extraction on Silver difficulty with one squad member of the Rebellion Pack classes: Vorcha, Phoenix Project Defectors, or Quarian Male."
