i’ve never in my life seen a vas FEL-IX card with anything but the pistol :frowning: are we sure it exist?

(vdll) #44

Yep, I own one FX card with MP, bronze rarity.

(Ardez1) #45

More work for you…

Each Merc now has one additional outfit and weapon skin combination available at Silver rarity and two news ones at Gold rarity. Collect away!

Been trying to get some screengrabs of the new mercs but since the change to how you view loadouts all my cards are tiny.

Still, three here until high res ones can be got.

Could you guys please post pix of your skins in High settings ? I am working on a document showing Merc skins : http://pogs.free.fr/DB/
Thank you beforehand :slight_smile:

Here is my document : http://pogs.free.fr/DB/Skins/Skins.pdf
As you can see it’s far from being completed.
Note that you can click on skin images to display a higher resolution of it.

I was away for a few days, so I got a bit of catching up to do… Thanks to all the folks who have posted their loadouts and a special mention to @Sniff for catching that elusive Fletcher Gold exclusive.

I will have some serious thinking to do regarding the continuation of this project as the new update did a lot more than add two new mercs to document. There are now possibly 4 or 5 new cards for each of the 8 loadouts of the first 10 mercs: 1 alternate Silver, 2 alternate Gold and 2 Cobalt (yes there is evidence of 2 versions of the Cobalt cards, even though the release notes didn’t say anythign about that). It’s not clear yet if these are available for all existing Silver and Gold loadouts or a selected few, but that has potentially more than doubled the number of existing loadouts, all within the rare to extremely rare range of availability. Beside the obvious difficulty in collecting these, there is also a challenge in presenting that much information in a useful way.

Also there is at least one new Cobalt-exclusive loadout for Aura (R73) and then there is this which indicates Silver and Gold exclusives being available at Bronze and up, suggesting yet more cards very soon. But more importantly, since the in-game store gives visibility on all Bronze loadouts, I’m not convinced there will be value in documenting loadouts anymore once Bronze and up is all the same…

@PogS all your pictures so far are of the Enemy variant, I would recommend that people who wish to provide their screenshots do the same. That being said, as I mentioned above there are now a lot more skin variations in the mix. If you want to document them all, you’ll need to add the applicable variants as well.

In the meantime, here are a few you didn’t have: http://imgur.com/a/5ptqQ

Being able to catalog the different skin types for weapons and mercs would be really really cool. A lot of people want to know what gold and cobalt skins look like. You have my support for any screenshotting you want!

Cobalt vs speckled cobalt

Red vs Gold

Also I want to point out this bushwhacker exists. Crazy perks!

Djiesse, since there is more skins that rarity, I’m gonna make the thumbnails smaller to have more on the same merc sheet. Since we can click on them and see them in full , that is no big deal. Of course that makes us a lot more work, but we have time to do so and we are many, a full community. So eventually we will have things done :

One Community to rule them all,
One Community to find them,
One Community to bring them all,
And in the darkness bind them.

Maybe you should the same with your loadouts. or even better, we can make one single document that shows loading cards and skins together. We should talk about it. I can give you my ftp settings and you cold upload things in the DB dir as I do.
The problem with imggur is that you have no control over the final name of the picture and you cannot modify them. Whereas on my FTP, images have a syntax : Mercname_rarity.png thus it’s easily to link and they can be updated uploading better pix.

If we upload full images like you did on imggur, we have the skin, the loadout Card and the info. That would be perfect. I could add small icons on the sheets to show additional skins.

You know I’m curious if there are going to be any other grades. There is Obsidian for founder/beta and there is Cobalt for elite. Will there be more?

If so, will the cobalt loadouts be discontinued?

If so, will the unreleased mercs not have a cobalt skin?

IF SO, having a skin genome would be really cool.
