The basic colors, as in, the ones you can buy with c-bills, do they ever go on sale?

I have never seen the Cbill colours on sale, however most months a batch of the MC colours do go on sale

I'm pretty sure they don't. They are pretty cheap though. In case you don't know, they are not mech specific.

I think they've been on sale 1-2 times in the 4 years I've played, but I wouldn't wait for it. 1MM CB is not that much really.

They guy who got me into MWO bought them all at one point because he figured he'd want them eventually and they were on sale. But that was nearly four years ago, IIRC.

Interesting. I've played since April 2014, so it could totally have been "before my time." I bought them all before I had MC, because I really badly wanted to see something other than OD green in the mechlab. It was a pure vanity QoL c-bill purchase. :)

I know this is not your Q persay, But lots of colors are available in the mech packs. Mainly Wave 1-3 and resistance 1-2 and origins.. some of the packs have around 50 bucks in colors. they also have 4X +30% c-bill booster mechs. Also come with 2 months premium time you can activate when ever though the website.


But if you just want the C-bill colors, i'd say buy um. I love the orange, red and blue.. use them on tons of mechs. Posted Image

No, but they are a permanent and can be used for all mechs as often as you want.
