Is it salable or blocked to account as the usual "(s)pecial" variants?
If it's useful for some reason (and each of us can have one), it's always possible not to redeem it...
If you really insist, you can ask PGI to remove the 'Mech from your account.

It is a special variant and thus cannot be sold. You get the Mech with a Mech bay included, so you lose nothing by redeeming it.

Edit: Why do people complain about free stuff?

I lose the free choice, exactly as I can't sell the cockpit items.
So, if someone gives you something that you know very well you will never need (and be careful: it's subjective to define something as useful or not), you hold onto it tightly until you die, right?

Done several times.

A big thank you to MWO for being so generous!

~free mech EBJ-B(S) with +30% CBills bonus boost!
~just 10x matches with lower match scores to achieve this! One of the easiest Events ever ;)

And a big thank you to Cauldron also! I would have quit MWO in April 2021 if not for this MWO/Cauldron partnership ;)

What exactly are you trying to prove?

Hell of an attitude to take over such a nothing issue, so what if you don't need it? It's a video game you don't need any of it might as well shut it all down right?

Most people I think agree it's silly to hate free things that take up no real physical space or cost to yourself.

I think it would be great if the events were a little more challenging. Can't you demand more performance from higher tier levels?

Despite PGI's problems, these players are the reasons I honestly feel bad for PGI sometimes.

Despite PGI's problems, these comments (this also with absurd comparisons) are the reasons I'm always disappointed.
But... Come on! The world is beautiful because it is varied, right?..

Wow... Here is someone who understands everything, I see...
Or someone who probably doesn't even read carefully what people write and just dictates his law.
Great!

Sorry, only for make you understand that my initial question "is it salable?" it does not assume that I have redeemed it.
In fact, I didn't do it. If it had been, I would have redeemed it.
Then, if I say "I lose the free choice, exactly as I can't sell the cockpit items." I'm also referring to the fact that you say "I don't care for the Ebon Jag and I just want the mechbay. (Then I could respect you for that since those are good reasons.)".
So, do I have your respect now? (it's ironic, keep calm Posted Image).
But for only a single mechbay, I prefer not to redeem it and not have to ask PGI to remove the mech from my account.
...
Dear, everyone makes their own choices and has their own reasons for making them and we must respect them.
No offense.
Imposing a point of view is not a good thing, that's for sure.
And I think you agree, at least in this!

Yeah i noticed this event seemed super easy and went too fast. I wouldn't want to make things harder, just loonger.
Hoping the future ones will be back to more of the casual grind they usually are.

A few years ago, you had to have a game with a match score of at least 500 to get the best stuff, i.e. a free mech, and people complained, so now events are either a lot easier or take a lot more time to accomplish.

Good hunting,

You mean Loki Prime and Cauldron-Born B?

Sometimes, you must wait for those 'Mechs to be added to your account. It can take one hour or slightly more. Logging in and out of the game client also helps.

Yes I know. But maybe higher tiers can get harder conditions?

The hellbringer prime and ebon jag. Redeemed at least 6 hours ago, have exited and returned to the game a couple times.
