Greetings MechWarriors,

I wasn't quite sure where to post this question but this seems as good as any.

I had a question about the bundled collections. I'm eying the Resistance Collection right now and part of that package is Faction Content. The faction content lists the 3 colors, plus the cockpit items that go along with it too. However, under each faction is a King Crab with a unique faction pattern on it. It doesn't specifically list that pattern as part of the bundle but is it part of it? Does it only apply to the +30% c-bill earning mech or any mech that you own?

I want to know as it may influence which tier I go with. I have recently been let down with buying an unlockable pattern only to find out that it only works on variants of a single mech and not your whole collection or even weight class. The example is of a King Crab so then I would be sad to find out those patterns only work on King Crabs as I have none.

If anyone can enlighten me, I would really appreciate it. Please and thank you for your assistance.

The King Crab pic is a preview of the camos for the packs

The special edition mechs (for this...®?) will not be able to change camo pattern (though this is subject to change) but the other 2 models of each mech (as well as any others you buy later - IE: all the Shadowhawk, Locust, Thunderbolt, and Battlemaster that got added after the Phoenix pack have access to my Hotrod unlock) will have access to the faction camo.

Your other questions have been answered, but not this one. The +30% C-bill bonus isn't from the pattern, its only applied on the one Resistance special edition [Probably ( R )] version of the mechs
That will be these four:
Panther 10K
Enforcer 5D
Grasshopper 5J
Zeus 6S.

The C-Bill bonus applies only to these specific *chassis* not to any faction content, it's independent of that. It's listed at the bottom of the resistance order page on the Mech Specs section for which ones will have the C-Bill bonus so you can look and see what the hard points are for that version, and the others as well.
