So the 3 million banshees seemed like it was unreasonable, something we were supposed to fail. Given that we have no control over what objectives we get, is this another one we're supposed to fail? Will that mean that next weekend, all objectives will be retrieval missions?

Sooo... just for clarity, we can do the retrieval missions on any difficulty? But, the personal goal is Silver only? Yes?

QMI, reporting for duty, sir!

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.


No. You just need at least one of your squadmates to be a Rebellion character. For example, you could have a squad of Krogan, Salarian, Geth, and a Vorcha... as long as at least one person from that squad of yours survives to extraction on silver, you ALL will be getting commendation packs next week (barring any commendation pack issues that make you poke EA Support to get them).
So, if one of your friends has a Rebellion character, now is the time to ask a favor. Posted Image

And if you don't have any friends with a Rebellion character, you can go to this awesome thread of helpfulness (Rebellion Squadmates Roll Call (let's help those who are still without!)) and add any of these kind folks and ask them to help you out. They have all volunteered to run Rebellion characters "for the cause" and to help folks who are without be a part of a Rebellion squad.

How come? For most Gold players, this should be a walk in the park.

I like this one. Glad to see the squad/personal goal is reasonable for most any player, though I'm wondering if the randomness of the different objectives will make accomplishing the allied goal reasonable. Here's hoping...

Dear Bioware,

Just to be clear on those N7 weapons.

The N7 Weapons are technically the "Promotional" weapons (N7 Valiant, N7 Crusaider, N7 Hurricane and the N7 Eagle).

However, under "Ultra Rare" one also sees the N7 boarder/logo around the other weapons?

So which ones are we promised to be getting if the challenge is completed?

Thank you

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.

I think they were clear with the term "N7 Weapons" in the 2nd post of this thread. Otherwise, they would have said "N7 Ultra rares"!

so.... wheres my commendation pack from the last event?

I think its better if its Silver or Gold difficulty.

I have that same question, I was in a group were we promoted 4 classes, got the Victory pack all right but no commendation. Plus I am still waiting for a Razer code I used a week ago to give me my pack with the Collector Rifle.
The bugs in the store really need sorting out.:crying:

Not quite.  Assuming that the four goals are equally likely, there's a 25% chance of getting the retrieval goal in each wave that has one of the goals (waves 3, 6, and 10).  As a result there's a 57.8125% chance that you'll get the retrieval goal at least once during the match.  Of that 57.8125%, 42.1875% is getting the retrieval goal once in a match, 14.0625% is getting it twice in a match, and 1.5625% is getting it three times in one match.  So, Operation Mastiff should take roughly 133,334 matches to complete.  Of course this is assuming all the matches are played through to extraction, the number of actual matches required to complete the goal could be higher due to party wipes, the gambler's fallacy, and how rusty I am at probability calculations.  I can't imagine it taking much over 200,000 matches, though, which is still substantially less than 400,000.


I do not believe your math is correct sir. Assuming the objectives are random, we have a one out of four chance every third, sixth, and tenth wave. Four random objectives at three chances a game gives you a lot less than 57.81% chance per game of getting a single objective. I do not believe you accounted for getting the same objective more than once in a game.

Thanks for the info and advice there DragonRacer, I appreciate it ^^ I'll check that thread out you recommended as well, not many of my friends on Xbox Live have unlocked any Rebellion gear (or even play anymore...).

Hopefully my Commendation Pack will be awarded unlike last time, because I can't contact Tech Support to get my pack. They are useless.

i dont see in the op where it is clarified that if somebody else uses a rebellion char and you not that you get the reward as well? All it is saying is that you get it if you use a rebellion char but you dont have to be the one doing the extraction mission.

If it is clarified somewhere please point me to the official part so i can reread it.
Otherwise this wont be so easy cake as everyone will join with their rebellion chars and then you have 4 rebellion chars on random trying to do the silver mission ^^.

I'm just going to play, carry a retrieval package and extract with a Cerb-adept. Then it'll cover all the requirements.

I just hope my teammates are good at reviving... ;)
