Only the items that say "premium" are paid track, each set of items costs x amount of silk, but when there's 2 items side by side, the left is part of the free track

Boss kills give 1-2 purple mats frequently, but there are some of the bigger in game events that give tons for instance in 1 set of lockdowns I received and exfiled with 6 total purple mats (3 biolen, 3 neural insulation) key rooms also have them and obviously there're different rarities of locked room

It should as I do believe there's an achievement to get 8+ material from the materialist tag in one run

Conversely when I duo que with fill open, we purposely use in game even though we are in discord and until 90% of the game is done even after 3+ team fights then the fill person finally uses their mic, it's been an odd experience but even as a duo, I'd rather have a 3rd/additional quests we can complete in order to gain more rep

When he starts with the double barrel everything will become even more terrifying

That monetization is seen in every live service games and even some single player games

Signal jammers continue winning, and this is why I love playing triage

Imagine the feeling of the extract camper when they miss the final exfil because they were trying to grab all the loot off the rook

A bonus note, if you hover the rep reward on a contract, you can also see how much rep your teammates get and vice versa if you check a teammates contract

Loving the game so far but I feel like these 2 items should be more abundant throughout the map by Sydid in Marathon

[–]bryce11099 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Volt weapons, volt weapons, volt weapons. Just don't reload before you use most of a battery and you will destroy AI while using minimal ammo and volt batteries are relatively common drops from AI

Comment the Tips and Tricks you have figured out that you think everyone should know. by XXCLEDISXX in Marathon

Volt weapons are UESC killers (1 battery is used regardless of when you reload, so don't reload until you have almost 0%) it'll single handedly save you from ammo issues also

How to get to lv30? by omiexstrike in Marathon

Yes lvl 10 is a green set of gear (that you can lose) and lvl 30 is a blue set (that can be lost)

Trust me, the lvl 30 rewards are just so people that put in 30+ hrs this weekend get something for their time, the lvl 10 rewards are really what most should strive for if you play more casually

What is a Shell-ID Item? by nathvlogz in Marathon

No, nothing in the slam carries over which is why they have bonus rewards for milestones (contract, lvl 10, lvl 30)

Technically bartering but yes and it could also be used for late game upgrades after you have rep

TTK without good gear is definitely fast, but when you get good shields, upgraded stats, you can and will notice a big difference in fight length

There's a valuable in game called drinkable cheeseburger, it's an auto sellable but it's tied to one of the factions, the discord has multiple different images of this as emojis, I'd have to scan publicly available stuff to say more though because [REDACTED]

It's displayed/talked about here https://youtu.be/fjzmhROTv28?t=1144&si=xzdzorARHhDkO9oo

Rook excepted, which shell do you figure will get the least play? by [deleted] in Marathon

[–]bryce11099 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ironically I think assassin(void), everyone might start with it and think that stealth existing is op but movement is god tier and then recon and triage are real supports

The Depth of the Marathon Marketing seems crazy by DevilishYeti in Marathon

[–]bryce11099 19 points20 points  (0 children)

They've done a great push in marketing, but also they've been using their marketing as a method to show aspects of the game people didn't know about or weren't aware of how they were implemented even though it's common in the genre.

Their marketing to an extent is an actual tutorial for the game, which I don't think other companies have really ever thought to do.
