on xbox its a box in the vender for a chance at some
They are inside the supply caches, highlighted in blue, for 100 rep and 5000 scrip at the 7th legion vendor. You also can get other 7th legion gear inside them.
I was afraid that was the answer. That sucks big time because I don't want to have my outfit picked for me. The one I just got is ugly with a capital U - makes me look like I have chicken legs and the droopy pants are not very becoming.
I can't remember what I got out of the starter pack. Badlands Ronin I think? Hopefully once you got the outfit you can't roll it again. I do want the Big Trouble in Little China hat though...
But I am loving these supply caches in the other rep vendors. They seem to have a decent chance at shields which is awesome for me because I never seem to get them. I got four orange shields with the rep I saved. Including a Survivor ARK (too bad that was on a low ego character though). But you can't trade stuff from them. So that is pretty disappointing but maybe that will be changed.
The faction vendor caches can get costly too. On my main I was out 110k after using all my rep with the three factions, and selling stuff I didn't want, but she got 4 OJ to show for it though. The loot is pretty nice out of the caches and they seem pretty fair since they are more pricey than lockboxes and limited by how much rep you can get. Faction reputation is much more relevant now!
I wouldn't expect them to change. Faction weapons have never been tradeable and while they may have changed Volge Battle Rifle (ne Gun) you got from sieges, that was because...sieges. I assume they added orange rarity to faction vendors to encourage more people to do contracts which means people logging on more frequently so if that's the plan making rep-only items tradeable would defeat the purpose.
I guess I can see that angle. Same reason we probably won't be able to trade swords. They want people to earn them. Faction vendors have never had random roll stuff until now though.Quote:

Edit someone in general discussion did say the mods are tradable. I wonder if they meant for the mods to be tradable but not the other gear from them.
Speaking of the Warmaster I would like to try a few runs tonight after Trick said they improved the orange drop rate to 6% with 7th legion. Hope to see some of our killers there :).
The outfit in the starter pack is automatic. I wish they had given us a cosmetic roll, but that would be too generous to the DLC owners.
Mods had always been tradeable. The change now is that as far as I remember (and given I was at the vendor a half hour ago my memory is shot) is shields are no longer listed as buy items, they only pop from boxes. Before DLC2 shields, mods and grenades from faction vendors were tradeable, just not weapons. When grenades changed with DLC2 we were left with tradeable shields and mods. Now I guess we're down to mods and since those pop as specials at regular vendors... lol
Found out the guy in general saying the mods from the faction vendors are tradable now was wrong. A friend and I were checking them out tonight, untradable, in case anyone didn't know.
Oh and no, mods from the faction vendors were never tradable, at least not by themselves. You could throw them on a crap weapon, and trade them that way, so I guess you could say they were tradable. But even when you could start getting those synergies in the mod vendors the ones from the faction vendors remained untradable own their own. And only shields I know of that could be traded from special vendors were the Extra Life ones. Can check Paradise vendors shields again though. Not like I have anything else in the Paradise vendor to buy lol.
Paradise and Echelon are also the only faction vendors to have shields prior to Tuesday's update. Yeah though, after remembering what Trick said, I don't think the faction stuff will be tradable.
Which I guess I am cool with actually. It makes you want to do those contracts and I think that's how it should be.
Do you need "Trusted" status at Paradise to buy mod boxes or supply caches? I can't remember if I've ever seen mods at Paradise
Yeah, and the new caches are only available at Von Bach, Solpetor, Top Notch, and the 7th legion vendor. I was just talking about the base shields that have always been in paradise :).Quote:
