No, you can’t buy Niko, IGP is very attached to him. Â :P
You can, however, save some MC on one of the ‘workhorses’ of MechWarrior Online. Â For this weekend (Today through Tuesday the 28th of May at 10:00 AM PDT), four of the more common ‘Mechs of MWO are on sale for 30% off their MC price. Â You can also buy yourself some Premium time for the Holiday weekend (assuming you live in the US, where Monday is a Holiday), with 40% off 3 Days of Premium time!
The combination of the 30% off price + cheaper premium time, makes this a good weekend to grab one of these chassis and get it leveled up quickly. Â Using some MC for the purchase, will save your C-Bills to customize that load out.
When the servers go down to apply this sale, we’re also getting a quick hotfix:
LRM flight path has had it’s drop point moved back along the path by 23% when using indirect firing. Splash damage drastically reduced. Damage per missile and all other aspects have not been changed.
So, that will reduce (a bit) some of the non-stop LRMs falling from the sky that has happened since LRMs got a bit of a buff in Tuesday’s patch.
See you in game!
The time has come to honour the workhorses – the steadfast workers who are there, rain or shine, no matter the hour, side torsos or no side torsos. Those workers.. are the Raven 3L, Hunchback 4SP, Catapult K2, and Stalker 5S. When you need a quick ankle biter to harass that LRM boat, when you want that Mech that your enemies will blame if you win – the Raven 3L is there. When you need a Mech that can bring versatility, the ability to take forever to be destroyed, all in a cool-looking case of metal – the Hunchback 4SP is there. When you need to put gauss rifles where machine guns were, and nothing where PPCs were, and then stride forth and pick off jumping pilots – the Catapult K2 is there. When you absolutely need a ton of missiles and lasers, when ‘just one more SRM6’ is all you want, when you just can’t decide if you want an SRM boat or an laser boat so you pick kinda both together – the Stalker 5S is there.
So to honour these Mechs, we give you – the Employee of the Month sale:
