I wrote these ideas out in response to another thread, but I figured it should probably have its own for further comments, suggestions, expansion, and visibility.

Please note that some people, mostly Founders, have well over 100k, or even 200k Mech XP (MXP) on their Master mechs already, or will get there soon enough, so they are priced in that range.


Single unlocks:

100k MXP - Master Customization
Camo Patterns, Colors, & Decals get a 20% discount for the Master Mech (for single paint applications under Camo Spec Phase 2).
Master Mech Color Pattern & Decals become available for unlock / application, when available for that mech as well.
(Other F2P games metallic textures as Veteran skins are popular like chrome, gold, bronze, etc.)

200k MXP - Ace Rewards
Master Mech earns +20% GXP & C-Bill bonus when used.
Stacks with Hero Mech bonuses if Master Mech is also a Hero Mech.

300k MXP - Free Mech Storage
Master Mech no longer takes up 1 Mech Bay, giving you back a spare empty Mech Bay.
Selling the Master mech will not give yet another bay. It will just subtract the mech & the bay it occupies if sold.

100k MXP - Module Level 2
Adds a second bonus Module slot.


Can be unlocked more than once to burn through spare MXP:

100k MXP - Rename Mech
Ability to change name of mech that displays in mech lab / mech bay selected when purchased.
(I have some I am leveling up but may use more frequently later where I chose a dumb name, spelled it wrong, or just used the default designation when I first got it.)

100k MXP - Cash Payout
Gives 500k C-Bills.


Bonuses and costs are merely suggestions. Adjustments will be expected to promote game balance.

well every other option instead of using MC to exchange XP is a good option

Agreed. I'd rather use MC on other stuff, and give more options to people that cannot afford MC.

Im all for extra things to unlock on battlemechs as long as its balanced so yup nice idea.

After all, more things to level = more time players spend in game which is good for the PGI

I've only started recently, but I do have a mech that I return to when I want to have some fun...... weird now that I think about it, I'm grinding on other mechs in a game..... anyways, it already has 25K extra exp that I don't have any idea what to do with. It would be nice if I could get something with it some day.
