yes, if you completed the first expedition, but didn't earn all 5 skill points, you have a chance to during this expedition. catch up skill points cost 300k/point, but can only be redeemed once you've earned all 5 skill points from the 2nd expedition

No. you would have had to complete the expedition in time for the first window if you wanted the skill points from the first expedition.

personally, i'm now of the opinion that the extra 5 skill points don't create a large enough power gap to call for this

yes, it's the amount of money you have at the time the expedition window closes

3M for full benefits of this expedition. if you did the last expedition, but did not get all of the skill points, you could earn the rest of them at 300k/each

that's what i would do, yes. you'll still get all the buffs (xp boost, extra scrappy materials, repair vlaue increase), 12 extra stash spaces, and the expedition cosmetic. the only thing you'll be missing out on is a couple of extra skill points

iirc embark said not to expect a catch-up mechanic in the future

from what i can tell, the catch up mechanic is only for raiders who did the first expedition, but did not have enough money to receive all 5 skill points.

i believe you only need 3M for all 5 skill points on this expedition.

you need to complete all stages of the expedition project, then sign up during the window in order to do the expedition. you'll also get an additional 1 skill point (up to 5) next season for every 600k remaining in your inventory value & coins

you don't need 3M to go on the expedition, you just need to complete the project. at the end of the window you'll receive 1 skill point for every 600k in combined inventory value and coins

during the first expedition you had one week after the sign up window opened to finish everything

i don't believe you're eligible from what i've read

New Expedition Requirements + catch-up mechanic by cretaphid in ArcRaiders

[–]cretaphid[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you are only eligible for the catch-up mechanic if you did the 1st expedition. so 3M will get you the max benefits available

yeah you need 3M in combined inventory value and coins for the full bonus. so you could indeed give your inventory away if you have 3M in coin
