Premium membership will give you a bump in C-bills collected and skills collected, but its a nicety, not a requirement and if you have the time, you can grind both those without the premium membership.Ĭolors are also limited in what you can purchase for c-bills with most vibrant colors costing MC. They also have pretty paint schemes and 'Hardpoints' that are a little different than standard chassis, but it's nothing you can't do without. Champion / Hero chassis (MC variants of mechs) just help you grind faster as they improve the skills points or c-bills you get per match by a percentage. Everything in game (except for a few champion/hero chassis or colors/camo) can be bought with enough C-bills. Pay to look pretty, or pay to get chassis faster or grind faster.Ĭ-bills can be earned by playing matches, MC is the currency that you can purchase with cash. Make sure you get your skills to Master on each variant within a mech line as it gives you a significant bump to how the mech performs.īecause of the 3 variant rule for Mastery, it would be wise NOT to fill your initial bays with 1 light, 1 medium, 1 heavy, but to get 3 variants of the same Mech instead so that Mastery is possible.Ĭ-Bills vs. You have to unlock them with GXP, then purchase the equipment piece with c-bills to put on your mechs during customization, very similar to how weapons get placed.Īs of now, you need 3 chassis variants to fully level your Mech skills (think efficiencies) for a single Named Mech type (i.e. We'll talk more about modules later but consider them an advanced feature. GXP can be applied in the Pilot skill tree to unlock various 'Modules' that can give you things such as slightly longer range on your weapons or artillery strikes. These are variant specific and affect things such as better cool-down (remember that weapons generate heat), speed, and turn speed (this is similar to 'tank simulator' type play). Mech XP can be applied in the Mech skill tree to improve various aspects of how your mech performs. SkillsTwo of the three items that you earn each game are Mech XP and GXP (c-bills are the third).
