Got the 500,000 c-bills, 25 GSP and 50 MC ones a few times which is great. I normally just bounce between 1-10m c-bills but I'm now up to 20m. Might even get close to getting enough MC to get a Deathstrike after another MC event or something.

Maybe next time they can add a rare dekkel or two to the loot bags just to break things up and give people a pleasant surprise among all the more common reward types.

Event also made my average damage per match go up I guess.

i think i got over 2k mc, im not sure because i had some from a previous event, but it was at least 2k. i also had a 900 damage match and got 180 mc from that one game alone. all in all a good haul. and i think you are supposed to get more loot bags from the holiday bonus.

Enough MC for me so far to get 4 mech bays! I'm only like 175ish in.

I got a heap of cbills not much GSP though. all good and a fair bit of MC.

Any time now someone is going to say that the reason the event is so generous is because the servers are about to be shut down.

Good hunting,

sit on it until they are half off and you can get twice as many.

not quite sure what to do with premium time anymore. i got tons of cbills. it might enable grinding xp better, but when was the last time i needed xp?

if it paid out one mc per 50 match score, i might actually buy the stuff.

Premium time needs a major revamp with other perks instead of the xp/credit bonus. Maybe an alternate option which grants discounts on various items and a small mc and gsp injection for each month it's active with a bonus to that amount for each consecutive month its active. I'm sure there are plenty of things people would rather have as a perk.

They could make extra dekkels for premium and give out a chance for a premum supply cache with those dekkels (beside the regular supply cache, if no premium, the bar for it won't fill up). Would only work if they keep adding dekkels every month or so.

Also not the complete solution, but it can be part of it.

premium time should buff all the grind, not just legacy grind. fp grind, solaris grind, etc.

I thought that Premium Time also gives a FP boost also?
(Just started grinding for the FP 'free' mechbays, new over there).

Don't know much about Solaris & Premium Time though;
only played the mandatory 25 game slaughter...oops...grind to get the bonuses...

i know you can make an absurd number of cbills and xp with it (my trick was to run an all hero deck so i made a lot of cbills just doing that). there might be some small buff to lp/rp. but the drop rate and grind are such that you make very sluggish progress, even if you are maintaining a w/l of about 1. even if its 50% faster, it still feels like f2p levels of grind. if they want people to actually buy the stuff, it needs to be better. even some base level grind reductions for lp/rp might be a good idea as well.
