You can read it like this.
Tier 1 = The first reward
Tier 2 = The second reward
Tier 20 = The 20th reward
etc...

This is not the same as Chapter Rank, because the Rank can only be earned through playing and earning Chapter XP. Whenever you rank up you will unlock the next reward.

If you Unlock Tiers by purchasing them directly, through the Chapter Booster or by completing the above mentioned week you will unlock the next X rewards but you will not get a higher Rank.

A higher rank is only available through gameplay and completing weekly challenges.
The Bronze, Silver and Gold Dogtag are tied to these ranks as well.

They rotate them in and out. I think this week frontlines is coming back for Tides of War.

Comment

Well, those modes are not available on DICE servers at the moment. But it looks like community custom servers are launching here soon so maybe some folks will get some RUSH servers going. From what I am to understand, the community games servers will have mostly all the modes available.

This has to be unintentional. I can’t imagine they’d release it without some kind of announcement.

Correct.

EDIT: Nevermind just realized it's tier skip not a chapter rank. HUGE disappointment, that's the second time you give us CC. Just give us a random cosmetic at least, like you did with the Winterkrieg hat.

Edit 2 : Seems like I got confused, the token does indeed make you skip a chapter rank. So no disapointment here, it's great actually. (Except for those of you who are already rank 40 but that's definitely not my case lmao)

How does the Token works ? Does it directly gives one tier when unlocked ? Or can you use it later ? Being able to use it on the last tier would be great because it represents a lot more XP.

Also, will it give you just enough XP to finish the tier, or will it give you as much XP needed for the tier ? For example you're Tier 1 and there is 10k XP between Tier 1 and Tier 2. If you already have 2k XP out of 10k, does it give you 8k XP or 10k XP ?

The Tier Unlock will instantly unlock 1 Tier for you. It works exactly like the purchasable unlock of tiers in the sense that you will retain any current progress.

So for example:If you are on Tier 19 and have 30 000/65 000 XP on your way to 20. You will then instantly unlock the 20th tier and have 30 000/65 000XP on your way to 21.

This will not alter your Chapter Rank, this also means that it doesn't really matter when you unlock it as the XP required for your next rank (and tier unlock) will remain the same.

Hopefully Thursday, but it’s not locked until after the meeting tomorrow.

/u/Braddock512 I'm sorry if you have addressed this and I've missed it but please point me at it - do you know why some weapons in the armoury regularly get new skins but others never have (e.g. ZH-29). I'm losing hope of ever getting a new skin for it and a bunch of others. Cheers.

That's a really good question - to be honest. Let me ping our weapon folks and see what they have to say. If you don't mind, remind me on Wednesday if you haven't heard back from me.

Yeah I know I'm European too. Seems like they will work like the rank boosts you can buy for 150 boins.

Anyways don't tell them I'm disappointed, I just got confused. A free rank is actually great.

Thank you for your time, have a good one !

You too, buddy! More details on Wednesday.

You only have two comments on this thread. None of them mention the armory.

My apologies, I didn't realize you were attempting to derail a thread that had a completely different topic.
I didn't look at the title of the thread so that is my mistake (Thought it was on the "This Week in Battlefield V" thread).

You can read my replies here: https://www.reddit.com/r/BattlefieldV/comments/e575ri/this_week_in_battlefield_v_december_2nd_edition/

Have a good one.

Alright thank you, I can't play a lot this chapter so I really want to make the most out of this token. Best thing would be being able to use it whenever we want to.

But just to be clear, the token makes you skip a chapter rank, right ? If so, my bad for thinking it just for your level.

I'll have more information on Wednesday in the overview.
I honestly am not sure (and it's about 1 AM in Stockholm, so no one is awake right now to ask).

You said that when the armory decided to change to a three week cycle and I don’t remember seeing a reply.

I've answered this elsewhere in this thread.

Feel free to take a look.

(EDIT: Didn't read the title of the thread when I was replying from my inbox - I've answered with what info I have on This Week in Battlefield V - December 2nd Edition).

RE: The cosmetic question, I have again escalated this feedback (since last week) to the in-game marketplace team. I don't have any update/details to share right now. Sorry, mate.

We asked the team a few weeks ago and I've asked again today if the items will come to the armory later or will be earnable through unlocks/progress in Tides of War Challenges.

This is the first time we've used them as a reward, so I've asked all the questions you've asked and should have all that info on Wednesday when I put up the Overview for the Weekly Mission.

What is a Tier skip token?

If I have unlocked rank 40 in chapter rewards, I can basically not bother?

Edit: could you stop locking rare cosmetics behind premium currency only bundles?

The game is already very stingy with it’s cosmetics, provided, you don’t want to pay more than you have (80€ in my case).

Lemme double check and see if the token is locked to Chapter 5 or can be used for other Chapters (like 6 or something).

Unfortunately, I haven't heard any new information. I'm still working to get an update on the long timer that has been called out.

Is the Lunge Mine the real ToW reward? Does it work properly?

No, it's not the ToW reward. The team is still working on fixing it - but it didn't make it in the upcoming update, so the Live Service team had to switch out the reward. Looks like it's a Chapter 5 Tier Skip Token.

Looks like a Tier Skip Token. (Lunge Mine is not yet fixed, so they had to pull it from the reward for this week. Sorry - I REALLY want to try it out myself.)
