Making unique/battle pass soldiers worthwhile

Hello bajtársak and fellow forumdwellers,

I believe we are all familiar with the unique soldiers that have a medal next to their names and give a 20% squad experience bonus which is very handy for leveling up squads.
Most unique soldiers were rewards of previous battle pass sessions, though some were given out in twitch drops while other event rewards.

With all the previous battle pass rewards added to the gamble box, there was an unexpected side effect: a huge influx of unique soldiers I can’t do anything with.

Unique soldiers cannot be sold but they still take up space from my reserves and clutter my soldier selection.
The main benefit of unique soldiers is the 20% squad XP bonus which does not stack, so there is no benefit for having more than one per squad.
This becomes problematic with the old tier I or II soldiers that I wont use over my own max stat and highest tier possible soldiers.

It has become so ridiculous that I now own more unique Soviet machine gunners than I have machine gunner squads.
On the other hand I would still be happy to take some tier IV assaulters, tier II guerrillas or AT gunners.


The solution is fairly simple, all unique soldiers need to be sellable for silver and a medal :medal_military:

A medal :medal_military: can be applied to any soldier, turning him into a unique soldier with max stats.
This way unique soldiers become a valuable and repurposable asset for everyone from beginners to the most hardcore veterans.

Furthermore medals should be sellable as well for the price of 5000 silver and a sold unique soldier must not be pullable from the gamble box again.

Thank you for your time and attention!

Well, I just sold one of my battle heroes today. Yet another silent fix they haven’t mentioned in the patch notes.

Or it is a glitch.

I can actually sell him now.


There is a warning so I doubt it would a glitch.

oh well, I guess will have to update my suggestion at some point, but the reusable medal idea still stands.

There should be another option to sell them permanently, without being added back to scambox again.

They should also always have sidearm slot and backpack/second weapon slot available even if you don’t have their squad upgrades unlocked. Majority of these soldiers are useless to new players because they don’t have the squad upgrades making them worse than regular soldiers.

Only 540 for a Medal toting battle hero? Apparently even the Dev’s know he’s worthless. :rofl:

I got 1340 silver for the hero I sold. Maybe the one Valkay sold was just a low level one.

I wish customization was free on these gold soldiers.

Then they would be sweeeeet
