The weapon and vehicle packs are a huge waste. Forget about them.BADMANDAD wrote:Well I have about 60000 points. But theres all these packs for guns and vehicles. Which ones can you use in which games. I mainly want to suit up my guy I mostly play super fiesta.thx

OP: Focus on buying Silver packs just to begin. You'll have the more common stuff, then, when you have a good collection, you can start opening Gold Packs for higher chances of earning Ultra Rare or Legendary stuff.

I actually got Helioskrill and Nightfall through Gold Packs in the past, the former was possible because I didn't own a copy of MCC in the day.SilentRebel38 wrote:You missed some.HaXoR73 wrote:Emphasis on specific tasks...djodst74 wrote:Through Req packs, although some are earned through specific tasks

If you're focused on unlocking armor, I recommend checking out this tool created by a moderator of the Halo subreddit. Check out the FAQ tab for explanations of things, but the gist is to get the most bang for your buck with REQ points, you'll want to keep buying Silver Packs until you aren't unlocking anything, then move on to Gold Packs.BADMANDAD wrote:Well I have about 60000 points.

This way you aren't spending 10,000 points on a Gold Pack only to unlock items that could be found at half the cost in a Silver Pack.

Thankyou gentlemen..that helps a lot. I got some stuff with silver packs.
That is absolutely impossible. Halopedia still says you can obtain it through MCC campaigns or MYTHIC REQ Packs.HaXoR73 wrote:I actually got Helioskrill and Nightfall through Gold Packs in the past, the former was possible because I didn't own a copy of MCC in the day.SilentRebel38 wrote:You missed some.HaXoR73 wrote:Emphasis on specific tasks...djodst74 wrote:Through Req packs, although some are earned through specific tasks

I have 2 points to make for you. The first is Halopedia is a fan source, not an official one, and second, you can obtain Helioskrill variants from Gold REQ Packs, not sure about Mythic REQ Packs.SilentRebel38 wrote:That is absolutely impossible.

Mythic REQ Packs actually aren't a thing; Mythic items are considered the same as Legendary items, they just have that fancy 3-star banner over them and nothing more. You can still get Mythic items through regular Gold Packs.VioletNutria452 wrote:I have 2 points to make for you.

Just stop trying to make me feel unrewarded. I almost threw my controller, Xbox and TV outta my windows (8th floor) during Delta Halo and Regret and I'm not the type of guy that gets this angry. Huh... Jackal Snipers.... breaching rage limits since '04.VioletNutria452 wrote:I have 2 points to make for you.

I'm able to sell stuff like guns and vehicles.. does that do anything except give me points?
Well firstly no, nothing, and secondly what would you like it to do?BADMANDAD wrote:I'm able to sell stuff like guns and vehicles.. does that do anything except give me points?
Outside of getting points back, selling guns and vehicles doesn't yield anything else.BADMANDAD wrote:I'm able to sell stuff like guns and vehicles.. does that do anything except give me points?
Req packs it’s random tho I do recommend Bronze > Silver> Gold when getting your collection
Bronze packs aren't worth anything. They only give you common items, maybe some uncommon stuff, but even common customization items are rare.LavaChief38 wrote:Req packs it’s random tho I do recommend Bronze > Silver> Gold when getting your collection
