The 'Mech is of higher tonnage than what the market typically has available.The 'Mech is a relic of the ancient Star League or some other exclusive variant.It's a 'Mech not used by the controlling faction and has crossed borders.


It's a typical 'Mech carried by the controlling faction, but in pristine condition.If you'd like to collect all of them one day, it's important to note that while an encounter of a new mech on the battlefield (friendly or enemy) counts towards database completion, importing over to a Career Mode game clears all entries of 'Mechs that you do not currently own.ĭon't be fooled by the "Rare 'Mech on Market" at an Industrial Hub. Their exclusivity is confirmed in a post by a PGI dev here. There are 43 'Mechs that won't spawn in random, procedurally generated missions anywhere and also won't show up in any markets (with one exception) unless tagged as a "Rare 'Mech on Market." These are the ones that only say ComStar, Mercenaries, or No Data Available in the Mech Database. If you've played this game more than a few hours, you know that some seem harder to find than others.
