I don't see the kodiak special hero mech listing the customary 30% cbill bonus. I also notice the special variant having a 30% bonus where i thought it'd get 30% xp bonus. Am I missing something or not understanding something fundamental?

Special models in recent packs typically come with a C-bill bonus.

XP bonuses tend to go with Champion mechs.

Im sure the Spirit Bear (hero Kodiak) will have the 30% C-Bill boost as well.

You're correct and I don't see it listed either.

However it is standard that all hero mechs come with a 30% cbill bonus. It's also pretty common for PGI to make typos and mistakenly forget to add minor info.

It would also seem to have been forgotten in the Kodiak FAQs.... so one second.
Ahem.

Attention Alexander Garden,

Both the store page and the Kodiak FAQ fails to mention whether or not the Hero Mech included with the Kodiak Hero Add-on would include the 30% bonus.
Could you clear this up for us?

Thank you,

Was it not the case, say back in like 2013, that HERO mechs had both a CBill and XP bonus, and Champion mechs had JUST the CBill bonus (and a smaller-than-Hero one, too)? Or am I having a stroke?

Way back when the first Hero "Yen Lo Wang" was first released Heroes were advertised as having a 30% cbill bonus, I do not think they ever had an XP bonus, or if they did it was never publicized.
