Well for me the regular-UR ratio vs variant-UR is 4:1. I'll definitely get my Hurricane X before I get my Dhan (anything) I.
last night I got a Crusader IX and a Valiant X. No variants again...

I have 4x UR weapons at X.
I have received 10x Variant cards.

Friday I got a Naladen X and Naladen Siphon I in the same crate.
I did not buy any crates last night as I am saving for Thursday.


per BWEBastiaanFrank at reddit (discussing vet rank kit drops):
www.reddit.com/r/MECoOp/comments/6qqbj9/veteran_ranks_fixed/

"Weapons have pretty much always worked this way. It currently has a very small (less than 10%) chance to drop a variant IF you have rank 10 guns. We did that so that you are getting some of the new things sooner, and it isn't just for the people at the end of the progression curve.

So now all the extended progression leans much more to the end of progression curve. More on the stream this week!"

Veteran Bonus



Veteran Bonus. New feature. As you level up characters will add additional passives. No points to spend.

To make you more powerful heading into higher difficulties.

Prestige didn't help that much but Vet Bonus will help.

"Won't this hurt your chances of getting other cards?" Only way to get vet bonuses is to get to ranks 11-20, so you have to rank each character to 10 first. Only affects chars already at rank 10.

Weapon Variants

New weapon variants specifically for team play and harder difficulties.
Got lots of feedback on the S-tier weapons. The intent was to bring starter weapons up to Gold viability.
Now they want to enable players to jump from Gold to Plat.
Took a lot of fan favorites weapons and introduced 3 variants: Bulwark, Siphon, Concussive. (But not all variants are available on all weapons; ex. Scorpion doesn't have all 3.).
Each weapon variant goes up to rank 10. The only way to get is after you have rank 10 of the base weapon, including URs. (Hurricane as example.)
Effectively 30 new cards per affected weapon: Bulwark, Concussive, Siphon ranks 1-10 each. Take rank 10 wpn of each type and adds add'l bonus of passive stat.
Weapon variant takes the rank 10 of the base weapon and adds passive bonuses, meant to increase power.
Bulwark: additional DR (damage reduction) for every teammate around you.
Siphon: kill enemies, recover health. "Energy drain in a gun." One of their favs in the studio.
Concussive: Adds Biotic detonation on weakpoint kills. Conal's favorite esp. on SRs. "Makes headshots feel even more rewarding."
Conal says solo-ing Plat will be hard b/c no team-mate's weapon bonuses.

Thanks man!
