I understand people are trying to help. But when asking for official word, giving your best guess really isn't all that helpful - unless your name happens to be on the PGI pay roster.

Save the image and the top ones are marked as "Prime"

And

The others are marked as "A" or "B" variants

[DocBach]

So the Clan resistance pack breaks the mold and uses the 3050 variants as the prime variant.

Not sure if I like -- the ZEU-9S and Grasshopper are pretty similar in terms of hardpoints.

i was just messing with you bud. Wasnt trying to offend. And was just trying to lighten the mood a bit.

We have yet to see for sure - as they have made similar typos or other mistakes in the past, but it is looking like it.

We have seen for sure

I definitely don't like it, the Panther and Enforcer variants are truly awful, and certainly a ballistic Assault (even if it can only pack 2 AC5s) is more interesting than an energy heavy and an energy assault.

I'm not sure if they could have picked a weaker set of choices.

[LT. HARDCASE]

That ENF-5P is pretty awesome. I'm in for a Wrath Pack.

[Pale Jackal]

I guess I will wait to see what they suggest in terms of quirks for these 'mechs before jumping in. I mean, 2 energy and 2 missile hardpoints, and 3 energy and 2 ballistic? That's like a Clan omni in terms of hardpoints.

You want to give that Panther hero 'mech some absurd PPC buffs and I will happily run it with 2 PPCs.

I'm really looking forward to this. At the very least I WILL scrape together the money for a Panther and Enforcer. I love the 5P concept and look forward to seeing it fielded. I can see some very nasty builds put together with that thing.

Also . . . the Fire Badge . . . that will be assigned and never going away.

The PNT-10K, ENF-5D, GHR-5J, and ZEU-9S will be the included special 'Mechs, with limited edition geometry/camo and a 30% rewards bonus.

Blasphemy!

[Racersky]

hmmm pretty much disappointed with this package. I have purchased all the others, but this packages, appears to bit a tad bit slow...I believe my dire is faster than these mechs...oh well, will have to forego the wrath deal...will there ever be a clan mech that can compete with the I.S. jenner in terms of speed, agility,firepower? Or will PSI nerf the Jenner too?

With the exception of the Panther, they go pretty much the same speeds as other IS 'Mechs in similar weight brackets. With the new quirk system, we might see the Panther be the go to sniper 'Mech for players wanting to use PPC's (too bad it didn't get ECM).

I like all the mechs. look like fun rides...cant wait.

[Karl Carver]

Ive always liked the Zeus





But yet again Alex has breathed new life into the design as he has so many others

(redacted) Outstanding.

Just magnificent.

[Risko Vinsheen]

So happy to see the ENF-5D as the hero variant. It's probably the one I'd be fielding the most anyways. 325 engine with 3 energy/2 ballistic? It's like a brother to the Speed-Lo-Wang. With jump jets to boot! Granted the 5 energy hardpoints of the 4R are also pretty sexy, but it won't have the same speed.

I put in for the Enforcer pack already. Most likely will upgrade to the Zeus later, but knew I wanted to at least get the Enforcer and the Panther will be fun to try out.

The second ballistic slot feels wasted, unless it has only 2 actuators in the arm.

Maybe you could do a 2 AC5 build, but I'm not convinced how useful that'd be... maybe I should fool around more with my new 2AC5 2ML XL300 Shadow Hawk 5M that I bought for its XL275.

[Hospy]

Kind of bummed the Zeus champion 'mech isn't the 6S. That autocannon left hand.

Will probably get the whole package anyway.

I just checked-in with Russ on this very matter and we've decided to share some good news:
We plan to run one more injection of the Atlas AS7-S!

To offer those who missed their chance to take part:
This injection will take place with the November 4th patch, so the newest and final deadline to be eligible to receive this 'Mech will be November 4th at 10AM PST / 1PM EST / 6PM UTC.

To be eligible, you will have to have purchased a Founders, Phoenix, Clan Wave 1, Clan Wave 2, or Resistance Collection of any level.

You guys are officially awesome! As soon as this week's paycheck hits the bank, I'm getting a wrath pack!

[That Guy]

question about the premium time, do we get it immediately, or delivered at a later time, and does it come banked or pre-activated? also about the early rewards, do we get every reward along the way (the month 1, 2, 3, 4) or just the one we ordered on?

Thank you, because of that i will buy the 80$ Package two times for my 2 Sons Account.

Is the King-Crab the ECM Variant?

If so, i have to buy the Package third Time - for my own Account ^^
