Been replaced with resurgence packs.

Guaranteed new char unlocks, I believe.


Not actually guaranteed to unlock a character, just guaranteed to unlike SOMETHING from the Resurgence DLC, so you could simply get a Geth SMG, harpoon gun, etc.

Yeah, found that out yesterday.

I'm the proud owner of a kishock after purchasing my pack last night.

I opened a couple packs yesterday, got the Batarian Sent for free, then Geth Engineer, Asari Justicar, and Krogan Vanguard, along with the Geth SMG. Really looking forward to using the Justicar and new Krogan.

As for the SMG, I find it pretty shitty, although it is useful when Cerberus troops role out of the way of a Warp or Throw and I can light up their head.

I'd imagine he's good with most things.

Well, except social interaction or casual sex with women that aren't made of plastic.

Thanks for the weapon damage updates.

On the shitty side of the news. Dropped 99k on one of those new packs and just as it opened host dropped. Money gone. Pack gone. Ran that fricking shite for nothing.

So there's no weekend challenge this weekend but they did let us know what next week's is going to be:





Probably going to have to kill a shitload of Banshees or Phantoms if I had to guess.

"Operation we intentionally ruined the ending to hit our launch window" has a nice ring to it.

I was thinking the same thing last night. I got a 5 revives bonus off of one guy. I mean, I have my bad situations where I screw up but this guy was awful. Also, the rarest things for me to get in packs lately: medi gel.
