Yesterday, I decided that the list of Rewards 2.0 was buried too deep on the forums (only place to find them AFAIK was in the patch notes that introduced them), so I copied, pasted, trimmed, and cleaned them up a bit and posted them here:

Rewards 2.0 - What you need to do to get XP and CB.

Knowing is half the battle. Enjoy!

The tl;dr is: play a medium or heavy so you can get brawling rewards, focus one target at the expense of good play to ensure you get solo kills. Most of the rewards don't add up to much, but a single solo brawling kill is worth more CB than you get for winning a match, and more than twice as much XP. If you don't get the finishing tap though, you get about a third of the rewards you would have otherwise gotten.

Did I miss something or are there no NARC rewards?

You didn't miss anything, there are no Narc rewards.

Edit: there's both the "tag narc" reward for 25 XP, 1,500 CB, and the "narc kill" reward for 60 XP, 6,000 CB.

That is like super strange. NARC beacon sometimes means certain death or a lot of damage. But ok. Though I remember there NARC kill reward

Sorry, I was wrong.

I played a Pirate's Bane one day (locust) with nothing but an AC/2, ECM, and as much ammo as possible after stripping armor and putting Endo and FF on (maybe not FF? don't remember if it fit). Granted, I had Premium time and the PB has CBill boost, but I netted 400k on the first game I played it on.

I used it as a long range, hill humping harasser (as the AC/2 is mounted over the top) and got so many CBill rewarded actions it was hilarious.

Increase "Protected Light" bonus five-fold ten-fold.

Suddenly more Light mechs!

For me, lights are already the money spinner - ADR-PRIME (i) makes me 300k+ (with premium time) on any semi decent 500 dmg game. New record earning in one match of 408k couple days ago.

And for those who do not have Hero/Invasion/Resistance/Premium?

Lights will still make more money, but the actual value will obviously be less? Those are a percentage increase. I have no problem with Pay to save time btw, i have a job and work 50 hours a week - thus i have money, but no real time to grind.

Which validates my point that Lights need better rewards to be more attractive to boost its dismal popularity.

My point is that lights ALREADY make more money than heavier mechs, and get faster queues too. Why do they need to make even more money in comparison to other classes?

Milk dat reward system.....

just playing normally and shooting robots makes jack, even with 80% bonuses.....

660dmg, 4k, win, survive...150K, 270K with bonus
600dmg, 0k, 8a, win, survive, 110K, 197K with bonus

Had other games in the 500-600 dmg range with atleast 2-4 kills, always in the mid 100K range, 80% bonus puts it somewhere in the 200Kish range.......
