There is a 2 week period you can buy these.

Not to mention there is 4 days till the 30th. It is Thursday here, so the 30th is on a Monday...you know just after the weekend.
Also, some jobs pay in the middle of the week.

If its like the regular active boosters, it kindasorta means your effective cap is higher. I think. So if cap is 190K SP, you can earn 380K SP?

If they had the full racial suite they could offer a Merc / Vet pack for each one. Probably even throw in an "omni" with little bit of all 4 races. |

- Very useful BPOs like a Heavy suit and LAV.
- 4x Fuel points at Krogers for buying a gift card.
- 5x Omega Passive Boosters.
The value of the Omega Boosters alone isn't enough to close the sale. Neither was the value of the pack. They need more bacon like an Ishukone Watch Dropship BPO or Dren Heavy Weapon BPOs.
Edit: Just read RA Drahcir's post. Good man. |

Just to clarify for those that are coonfused (I can see some are)
Daily Passive SP ( stuff for nothing) is 24000.
With a normal passive SP booster this makes it 36000 sp a day.
With the Omega it will make it 48000 a day.
So going from 720 000 sp per 30 day to 1 440 000 in 30 days.

Hello CCP, I bought a good 4 of these last time round. I would have picked up an Elite merc pack to buy a few of these this time round, but you've been too lazy to do a simple thing like fix the militia PG/CPU on the Dren weapons and I have no faith in you doing it ever, so I won't be putting any of my money down now. |

The dren items are not militia, they are standard level gear and they have PG/CPU to match that level...... I would know because I got that pack and I actually like the dren items. There not the best but its standard gear so what can you expect? The 200k AUR 2 months of active boosters, and two months of passive boosters along with tons of BPO items makes it worth it to me...... |

The swarm launcher and pistol have militia CPU/PG. All the other weapons are fine admittedly, but it probably would take them an hour to adjust the stats on the backend to bring those two up to Standard. That they haven't is pretty pathetic. |

The Dren problem was specific to a few items:
"The Dren Pistol features full basic stats (faster reload time) but has the same cpu/pg of a militia item. The same goes for the Dren Swarm Launcher as well."
There were posts about the differences. In a weekly update, they said they'd look at it. Are you saying it's been fixed? What is the PG on a Dren Scrambler Pistol now? |

Nah, he's talking about the 'Dren' Scrambler Pistol (and possibly the Swarm Launcher, I don't remember offhand) which have STD level stats and MLT level fitting requirements. |

It would be really nice if this coincided with new merc packs, considering that's the most efficient way to get AUR... and we can't trade or make use of multiple BPOs.... and many people already have the current merc pack contents... |
