Crotzni is a very good smg, but the only “good” augment is really potent packs. Since a medic’s supposed to heal engineers when they are doing objectives, mechanic augment is pretty useless, big ears…that’s really situational. So I guess you can trade up to cobalt if you want.

Absolutely trade that up, Big Ears is useless, Mechanic is okay if your engineer is on respawn and you are able to do the objective, and Potent Packs is pretty good but still there are better combinations of augments for Phoenix.

Not a bad cobalt loadout you got there

Not to be a party buster, (but I will be,) knowing what you got in return, I would have kept the gold. Beside the swiss-red skin looking better, the ‘mechanic’ can be a real game-changer when no engie is around, and the ‘big ears’ is good for extra combat awareness, keeps you alive longer. Besides, I consider the Stilletto knife better that the Beckhill, as its secondary does vastly more damage and the primary attack has a faster swing. ‘Bomb-squad’ is near useless, in all situations, and the advantage of ‘quick-draw’ is so small, it’s negilable. (If you could not crouch or jump in the game, perhaps I would consider it good.)
That trade was a bummer, dude! But then again, personally I would NEVER trade up to a cobalt. The cobalt skins just looks inferior to all other skins. The only advantage it has, is that you look slightly more like a friendly to enemies. Of course, that’s a HUGE advantage!

Five more damage. Five. Vastly more damage. Five damage more. Vastly[/quote]
Really not more? It used to be higher, must have been changed in a patch without me noticing then. But the point is, IMO that gold card was better in every aspect, then what it was traded up into. Personally, I think that gold card is one of the best cards for Phoenix. Definitely in the top three.
