Ok so I got the clan pack with all the mechs. If I grind the nova B to elite status then sell it will it negatively impact my ability to master the other two novas?
Think about this...you paid real money to get that mech, do you really want to sell it for C-Bills? That said, as long as you either get the NVA-B through the elite stuff, or you've gotten another medium chassis mastered, then as long as it hits the basics the other two SHOULD be able to move on to elite/master on their own. If you have no mediums mastered, you'll need to get all three Novas through elite to unlock Master rank for the one(s) you want to keep.
Thanks, I didn't know that. Was wondering why I sometimes had to go through Elite for all 3 Variants, and sometimes not. Now I know why Great title btw, so I have one, too: In a youtube video I saw someone just moving the arms, without the torso "cathcing up". This can be useful for LRMs or for not exposing that dark red side torso. How can I do that?
Why not. Thing about clan mech is that, you can do most of the builds on ANY variant and they end up exactly the same. So once you grind Config B to basic you don't really need it anymore. Anything you want to do you can do it on Config S, or even Prime. Config S is a special one with AMS hardpoint in CT though so don't sell it. I would say sell Prime even when you basic'd it, unless it is the Special Color variant which is probably your case. Oh, when you sell it REMEMBER TO UNLOAD ALL THE OMNIPODS FIRST!!!
next question if i sell the B model when can i buy it back for cbills? the prime or s can make every mech the b can so I am losing no build options at all
Yes, eventually all the clan mech are available for cbills. That having said, please at least finish basic before you sell them. Also, S is great, if anthing you get an extra AMS hardpoint, an extra is an extra.
Currently you can buy it back with MC. But as enileph said, you will be able to buy it back with cbills eventually. Likely a couple months down the road.
k i got all three to elite status so i can sell now and master the prime and s like normal? or i need to master them first
@akani Go to the config menue and uncheck the box for "arm lock". Then you can move your arms independently from your torso - to a certain degree. @Grantham Besat Now you can sell up to 2 unwanted models - since you have unlocked/fullfilled the prerequisite for mastering.
Actually you DO NOT HAVE TO DISABLE ARM LOCK. Arm Lock is now a toggle. You can enable and disable Arm Lock any time during battle. The default key toggle is left shift I think. Disabling it helps alot during close quarters if you have arm mounted weaponary, as well as allowing you to shield better with your shield arm. HOWEVER if you want more accuracy at long range and better convergence you should lock it. So basically toggle them base on situation. Obviously if you are running something like a BNC then it does not matter, as your weapons are mostly at your body.
