Woo-hoo! Had been debating on a Banshee pack. Now will get it. Spider and Highlander may get bought too.

Right there with ya. Been on the fence about the Banshee pack for a minute.

[Dee Eight]

Just Don'T banshee pack unless you have c-bills that need spending on upgrades. The only good ones are the LM and the 3S (which isn't in the pack). I knew that ages ago and got the LM alone during the assault sale for MC and then just spent c-bills on two of the basic variants, basic skilled them, and then sold them.

Oh good...someone else who understands discount math correctly.

For the rest of you... 20% of 50, is 10. So the total discount from the original price is 60%.

Module sale would have been better.

[Sevronis]

So.. never thought I'd see a sale on Mastery Bundles since they kinda are already on a perma-discount. Figures this happens after I already bought all the mastery packs for the mechs I didn't already have 3 or more variants of. I may have to look and see if any of them have variants I don't own, but I already have all the heroes..

Too bad there arent any Clan mastery packs yet, as my alt account could use a few, but there arent enough clan heroes yet for that.

Naked is the best way to play, though!

Also, there's been lots of new maps in the last four years. At least pick something legitimate to complain about. And there's plenty to choose from.

It is just 60% (because 20% of 50% is the same as 10% of 100%), but still a great deal.
I already have many of those mechs, but for this price I even consider buying Commandos or Vindicators

Edit: I should reload before replying ... thanks to the others pointing out 60%, too

[Aramuside]

Any suggestions between the Cicada, Centurion and Hunchback packs bearing in mind the current stats of energy draw (version 3)?

All three of those Hero's should fit the ED meta fairly well.

X5 with 4xML,2xSRM4
YLW with AC/20, 2xML
Grid Iron with Gauss, 3xML

Went ahead and got the Spider and Banshee packs. Can anyone give me opinions on the Victor?

Victors can be a ton of fun but you need an expensive XL350. AC20+2xMPL+SRM6+4+2 and 4 jump jets or twin ultra, twin medium laser and srm6+4. The hit boxes are big but they also get centered if you are not twisting. The Big XL 350 makes them far more durable in that regard.

Thanks for the info! May go ahead and pick that one up too.

[MovinTarget]

Usually ran my Victors std engine for durabilty and try to deadside them.

Like them better than highlanders which can't compete well with "modern" assualts due to low engine cap...

This is great for newbies, but some advice:

1) These do not qualify for loyalty rewards, but are still a great deal for people starting out.

2) Check MetaMechs before buying, if you are worried about getting the most for your money.

[Desintegrator]

Great sale again !

He speaks truth. Bear in mind that hero mechs are typicall *not* the best of the bundle, so don't expect it to blow you away.

I would say make sure you are getting the best variants in genetal for that chassis but the reality is that what is best now may not last past the next patch...
