    Was the case since the first one though no? All the bonds have several weapons and a booster to unlock. Not defending mtx here but it is hardly a surprise

      The first one was actually worse because it was only DLC there, no earnable in game currency. In 2 you can easily farm it on trivial missions if you don’t mind a little tedium, but you also just earn it as you play if you explore.

        I’ve just about everything worth buying in the earned market, and looking at how many Medals that is (in total >1.2k IIRC), there is no fucking way I’m paying $$$ to match that in Premium War Bonds, much less exceed that to unlock the tiers w/ items I might find useful.🖕🏽☠️

          You cant pay for warbond medals, only supercredits, which can buy the warbonds themselves (battle passes), and the armor pieces that rotate through the superstore, but nothing else.

          Edit: the superstore armors have unique visuals, but so far I have not seen one that has unique mechanical effects, though I could be wrong, I don’t look in there much

            Sorry, I’m super tired and conflating terms. The “Premium War Bonds” menus that can only be unlocked with cash vs. the finite War Bonds menu (singular) that take medals for everything (including SC chips). Does that make sense?
