I heard that crate contents will improve as you climb up the accolade rank. Those who played a lot of matches in a single division, what were your prizes?

Meanwhile I'll be opening up some 100 ton cans.

When Sean Lang opened a bunch on stream all of the ultra-rares and a good chunk of the higher-end S7 ones had 400MC prizes.

I got 6 crates in one division, and my rewards went down as I got more - The first two had decals, the rest didn't. That's just odds though - They seem to have all been pulled from the same reward pool.

I don't know if higher than 6 gets better rewards.

So 6 crates in one division and no MC huh. Perhaps it is totally random after all.

The only thing I think that isn't random is that the first crate always has a bolt on, presumably to wet everyones throat. Or at least that's my impression - Everyone I know got a claw or something similar in their first box.

A I recall, the same thing happened to streamers who were showing Shadow of War's lootbox system prior to release, while publisher/developers were on stream with them.

Think I opened a level 6 crate in Div 1, 1 bolt-on, rest are standard weaponry.

Meh, then perhaps I should stick to FP grind if I wanna get MC and mechbays.

I'd say so. It looks like caches are useful for getting decals and little else (Which is fine, decals are A+ in my book).

I wasn't gonna go there myself, but I can't say the thought didn't occur to me.

On QP loot boxes, description and content don't seem to match. Just got "Rare cache" with 2 guaranteed cockpit items, had only 1. And all common cheap cbill weapons are marked uncommon.
More patches inbound...

I've only played a single Div up to Rank 3 so I got 2 supply cache (crate, box, whatever) and the first one had a bolt-on like you say, second only 4 purple uncommon.

Should I start a new Div and the first crate will contain another bolt-on or it's only on the very first one?

Most of mine have had bolt-ons, but nothing that I've found a match for yet.

Both of my Div3 caches had decals.
