Hi!

When you hold the mouse cursor over the purchasable stormcrow mech in mechlab, the quirk summary sais "XP Bonus +2,5%".
After buying each of the variants this bonus isn't shown in the quirk summary. Also it isn't listed in the endscreen of a match.
I'm sad now. D`:

the bonus is only for a clan mech using all the same omni pods... did you swap out any of the omni pods (so using a D arm on a prime torso for example means you dont get the bonus at all)

Also the bonus is garbage... your better off swapping out to better builds and losing the bonus, but having a more effective mech as you end up with more exp that way in the long run

I'm getting the same error for my MadDogs.

All have stock OmniPods, so XP bonus applies.

"Omnipod XP bonus" doesn't show in end of game screen.
Haven't double checked the math yet.

Not a consistent issue.
Sometimes it shows, sometimes it doesn't.

Needs more investigation.

If your CT is shot out the you don't get the bonus. There is a fairly big thread here about it and I was dealing with support over it when the Clans first came out.

WWhen I'm not on my phone I'll dig up the support emails.

A questions from QA. Have you noticed if there's any correlation between you not getting your XP bonus and your mech having lost a part during the match?

Dark said:

It happens win or lose. I can dig out more screen shots when I get home if required.

Support said:

I'd appreciate it. Could you also send us a screenshot of your Mech Details, just so we have a loadout to compare your issue to, even if it happens on several Mech(we just need an example of it on one). Thanks!

Dark said:

Here are the screen shots https://www.clanhell...rg/images/dark/ most are from the thread posted, but in there dated today are the `Mech loadout images. I have been screenshoting everything since the start of playing back in closed beta. I will have to go through and dig out more of them and email back, hopefully this will be enough to help track.

I will start tracking the part losing info, I forgot you guys were looking for that information.

Would it be possible to check if it should be modified or unmodified amount? thanks!

I should be able to play a fair amount tonight so I will email again with screen shots of damage also.

Support said:

QA has confirmed that the OmniPod XP bonus applies to the unmodified XP reward.

Dark said:

After playing tonight I can say that it is looking like if the CT it shot out the bonus is not applied. There have been new screen shots uploaded to https://www.clanhell...rg/images/dark/ dated 2014-07-04 or anything with 2014_07_04 in the file name. The one called MWOClient_2014_07_04_21_19_44_091.jpg shows no bonus and my CT was shot out.

Support said:

Thanks a bunch. I'll send this to QA.

Support said:

QA has confirmed that you don't seem to get the XP bonus if you are destroyed, win or lose. As far as we know this isn't intentional and has been entered into the bug database, it should be fixed soon. Thanks a lot!
If you have any other questions or concerns, don't hesitate to ask.
Thank you for contacting MechWarrior® Online™ Customer Support.

The last one is from July 8, 2014 so I am going to guess this is a really low priority (and it is really). So my only suggestion to anyone having the issue is to just swap Omni Pods as required to make the builds you want.
