I've a lot of Mechs, I've converted a lot of Mech XP in GXP and I still have a lot of useless
Mech XP on my most used Mechs...

Can We have more alternative uses for cumulated Mech XP ?

I would personally like to see an option to convert Mech XP to GXP without paying MC. Perhaps a tax: move 1000 Mech XP out and it becomes 750 GXP or something. Or let me pay c-bills to convert.

Mech XP not locked to the single variant but shared among the same chassis should be a good start...

That would defeat the purpose of making people buy 3 variants to level...so...GREAT IDEA! I've never liked the 3 variant thing...

Or You can simply collect all the variants and Master them with the banked Mech XP of your 1st 3Variants purchase...

As I've said "This should be a good Start", obviously more uses ideas are needed... :)

I think they wont do anything regarding that because:

1- Would decrease the # of ppl buying MC to convert XP
2- Would make piloting the same mech all over again "profitable" for the player, since he can use the extra XP instead of buying new mechs and mechbays for grind. I could master all my Ice Ferrets piloting only my DireWolfs for example. It would be great for us, but really bad for then.
3- Doesn't make sense, you cant be a "master" in one thing, doing something diferent. I.E: Be a master truck driver, driving a honda fit.

wouldn't mind seeing more master tier upgrades. perhaps a 100000xp upgrade to give you a small gxp bonus, or a small cbill bonus.

I would like to see some decal or something like mech rank showing others that you have millions of xp with that mech...

Or how about some special consumables (affecting pilot and working only for selected mech) which you can buy only for xp ;)

I'd like to see anything.. at all..

Or some absurd exchange ratio to convert to MC, like 1,000,000 mechXP to 5 MC.

But unlocking a small Cbill bonus..
Goes right back to if Rewards 2.0 wasn't so crappy, wouldn't need it.

Use excess mech XP to help level the guild but knowing PGI design it'll probably be GXP instead if they make a system like this.

I still think having special titles/camos for mech XP would be the best way to go even if it's stupidly expensive like 500,000 or more.

While that may be true, it would also have the effect of making people less annoyed when grinding out other variants and not feeling like their MXP is doing literally nothing at all.

I would probably buy more MC and spend it on other things if PGI didn't expect me to pay MC to skip a shitfest grind.

You would still need to buy all the mechs and enough mech bays, it would just alleviate grinding the mech tree is all.

That doesn't stop you from being able to convert MXP into GXP if you pay MC so that's not a justified reason whatsoever, and it sounds rather contradictory when you acknowledge this can be done with your previous points.

Does it suddenly "make sense" to convert MXP into GXP if you pay real money? No, it doesn't.

Maybe a way to convert extra xp to cbills or toggle a mastered mech to get a cbill bonus when used instead of earning xp. Makes sense that a Master would get paid more.
