No, Galaxy is listed under the Prime reward

As a general rule when you mouse over the pack in the store the graphic flips and it will say if its an IS or Clan pack

Ah thank you, the hover-over trick helped. I was looking on mobile and there is no hover-over so I had to find a PC. Makes sense but I'm a little bummed at the same time.

Truth be told, I'm not jumping for joy for this variant, I would much rather have the Gauss Variant or LB-x AC/10 variant. Either of those would've been a better choice. Like usual, they read Ballistic Torso and wham! We've got MG monster!

MG monster? Why would you run MG's on that. Plus, it adds something new to the chassis instead of copy and paste laser vomit.

...The Sleipnir has Ballistic Torso Mounts. The Black Widow has Ballistic Torso Mounts. The War Emu, Torso Ballistic Mounts.The BLR-6C canonically has 4X Light AC 5, you can easily swap those out for Dual Gauss, Dual Heavy Gauss, Triple or Quad LB-10X, Duel LB-20X, Duel RAC-5, Triple Rac-2. The only way PGI could screw this up is by ether giving it terrible quirks or ignoring the art the BLR-6C was based on and somehow place the ballistics at crotch level like the current arm mounts.



Yeah, I take back what I posted earlier. Without re-scaling,10 tons less armor and guns, it's going to live or die on quirks.

It's going to be laser mount high. That's the whole reason for it coming, and I doubt Tiyos would **** it up.

What, you think having below 10DPS/30ish alpha to be fine because at least it has access to stealth armor which is its only selling point above the WLF-C (which has 50ish alpha thanks to HLL+cERML) since it has no weapon quirks other than heat?

And the new Raven just gets to have more hardpoints, and slightly better hitbox/weapon placement. And if it takes after the 3L, effectively more hitpoints than the Grinner too because structure (which it gets instead of armor quirk) skill nodes are +33% at 10 nodes.

Probably going to have a lot less quirks compared to the Grinner, like no laser heat, and only structure. Think of it as a side grade.

Would buying the Otomo pack count for the Inner Sphere Package Reward (STK-4P)?

[shadow cat]

Hello I have a question.

Shouldn't the CLAN GALAXIES or WOLF'S DRAGOON grant the CLAN PACKAGE REWARD?

Shouldn't the OTOMO PACK grant the IS PACKAGE REWARD?

For the moment they don't grant that packages.

Not for the moment.

In either case both would still just be "worse WLF-C, but they get stealth armor"

[Steel Raven]

I don't believe the Raven has better hit boxes with that side profile, why most builds are snipers. Wolfhound isn't super popular right now because pop tarting is back and no 'Hound has jump jets (seen so many Firestarters recently) But if you want to use this as a argument to get both more buffs, all for it.

Guys, the is up now!

MWO is nice enough to clearly list what Reward comes with which package purchase...
i.e.
Clan Galaxies ==> Prime Reward
Otomo Pack ==> Prime Reward
Gauntlet Pack ==> Prime Reward

- - - - - - - -
My personal take is that the general rule of thumb is "30 dollars" or more are considered IS or Clan mech packs.
e.g.

Purchase the basic Fire Moth Collector's Pack alone would qualify you for both:
1) The Clan Package Reward: TBR-N(L)
2) Fire Moth Reward: FMT-H(P)

shouldn't Gauntlet pack be eligible for IS reward ?
is there any list of what mechs/packages qualify for IS and Clan reward ?

Wolf Dragoons count as Prime Reward.

I think the Icons Pack should be the $10 TSP 2025 Decal Bundle, which also count as Prime Reward.

[NovaVangaurd]

how much mc do you need to buy to qualify for the mc purchase reward and is it too late to get it if i just bought the mc today through steam?

ASHRID, on 19 September 2025 - 09:49 AM, said:

I emailed support with that question and they said it does

Ah, cool. So, I can just buy the Bullshark Collector's edition without any add-ons 'cause there's a Clan mech in there.

The Raven's hitbox is like a Stalker's (but 35t), you just wiggle your nose instead of showing the cheek.
Also its weapon mounts are just all higher than the Wolfhound, especially relative to cockpit.
And like I said before, structure gives it more hitpoints in the end, because structure skill nodes are more effective on lights.

https://www.mwomercs...ckages/tsp-2025

That isn't called an "Icons Pack". That is very clearly a "Decal Bundle". I think the Icons Pack is something that hasn't actually been announced yet. If I had to guess, it'll be coming out in October.

I specifically recall MWO staff saying in 2024 that Bullshark with the Clan Hero would be considered as IS + Clan Package Reward for the previous 2024 Annual (Loyalty) Rewards Programme.

Hmm... are you absolutely sure? I mean, it makes sense since we have to buy the Collector's and an Add-on. But I just want to be sure. Thanks.

I'd agree that it would make more sense if that were the case, plus the Prime reward is hugely overpopulated (I'm going to delay getting the Wolf Dragoons pack until after the 2025 rewards end as I've already qualified for Prime twice with the TSP and Galaxies pack (but I suspect I'll also qualify twice next year with Wolf Dragoons and the 2026 TSP)

With the focus seemingly on Legends has there even been a new qualifying IS pack released since last year, the last IS packs appears to be the Bullshark*? (Clan had the Bane I believe)? It might be getting harder for the vets to qualify for everything without buying duplicates.......

[BlueDevilspawn]

The main thing is if you look at the types of packs under prime rewards, they are “booster packs.” The actual mech chassis packs are what are referred to as mech packs. And yeah as someone noted there is a price difference.

I not really know what may do with those rewards, I already has more C-bills I would ever use...
