Been waiting for this to spend my 70 mill c-bills.

Shopping list:

all Timberwolves.....maybe novas?

Can i borrow the Cbills for 2 twolfs then Cion? brought 2 victors in last sale and been real busy with work. ain't have time to recoup my spendings.......

[dragnier1]

Trying to save cbills for hellbringer and ice ferret...must...resist...

[Rhialto]

I only have the Stormcrow, bounght with when on sale a while ago... elited 3 variants.

Wondering if I should go Nova this time... since I'm limited on otherwise I think I would go DWF.

Am I wrong if I say Clan don't have lights as cool as IS? IS are agile and fast, I see fastest Clan is MLX at 124Km/h but have always heard it's too fragile... I usually like to pilot Spider and Firestarter, which Clan light would please me?

Mist Lynx would be the closest equivalent to the Spider and Firestarter, as the Kit Fox and Adder are more like little gunboats. They carry more firepower than any other light mech (except maybe the Firestarter but I'm of the opinion that thing needs to be toned down a bit as is) thanks to being Clan tech. I enjoy my Gauss-toting Kit Fox. Once two-shotted a fresh Pirate's Bane in the side torso and they spoke up in chat "Holy crap! What's in that Kit Fox?" Yeah... people don't expect a gauss rifle on a light mech that often.

Mist Lynx can't carry a whole lot of firepower but it's spry and can cause a fair bit of mayhem for its size. It's got small hitboxes to help with its relatively lower speed and has a variety of hardpoints to choose from, though the ECM arm omni pod will limit your firepower.

Thanks Risko, I will take a look at some builds within those Clan lights.

Wow great !

Now we see a lot of Clan Mechs on the battlefield.

A picture is worth a thousand words.

so you're gonna double the cost and then make it available?

Very much appreciate that they're finally for sale but... yeah. Price seems a bit much. The Inner Sphere medallions of equivalent style are 500 MC normally. Shouldn't the Clan medallions be priced the same such that they're only 250 on sale?

[Astrifer]

Why does it cost twice the advertised price???

[Thanatos31]

Is it that you see demand and thus increase the supply's Price (well double it?) even if advertising it at 250mc?

Good old demand and supply model .... QQ in German we'd call that "abzocke".

[NUJRSYDEVIL]

I got reimbursed, thanks PGI. Definitely considering getting another one thanks to good customer service.

Hey all,

The price originally displayed for the standard Clan Medallions was their initial valuation back when we were first planning the Wave 1 content.
The standard Clan Medallion prices have now been adjusted down to match the price of the Stained Glass Medallions - 750 MC standard price, 375 MC current sale price.

If you already purchased one of the newly available medallions at the original 500MC sale price, please let us know through a support ticket with the subject heading "Clan Medallion Sale Price".

750 is a lot more fair a price, I think. Not as cheap as the Inner Sphere equivalents but at least it's not the same price as a warhorn. Will go ahead and at least buy 2 medallions while they're on sale.

[Thanatos31]

Decent move PGI, Alex.
Thank you.

[Greenjulius]

The event and sale gave me extra incentive to grind tons of c-bills for all three Direwolves... I'm down to only 4 million needed for the last one, and have qualified for 77/100. I started with 11.5 million c-bill on Tuesday, and ended up with 35 million as of now.

As long as I don't die tomorrow I should get the 3rd Dire, and the last 23 qualifying matches. So. Many. Matches.

Acually the sale should be already over, as 12:01 AM (PST) should be equal to 00:01 AM (PST) !
