Mass Effect 3 multiplayer

So, promotions.

For anybody who doesn't know, promotions weren't available in the multiplayer demo because it's linked to the single player campaign. Once you get a multiplayer class up to level 20 you can "promote" the class into a "war asset" that Shepard can deploy in the campaign. This brings that class back to level 1 and gives a nominal bonus to your N7 rating. You keep all character/appearance unlocks, though.

I reached level 20 with Soldier the other day but kept playing with him just to get credits - bought a lot of Recruit Packs, got most of the basic weapons to level VIII or better (Katana, Mantis, Predator, Avenger, Shuriken), at least one level V attachment for each, an full appearance customization for one human of each class. Now grinding my way back up is significantly easier.

Once I max all of the basic weapons I plan to do Vet Packs. Pretty excited about those, there's a ton more weapons and attachments to get now, rumor is that everything from the single player is available in multi. Might spend actual cash on a few Spectre Packs, though. I'd hate to have to beat a Gold mission or beat two Silvers just to get enough credits for one of those. :/
