the omega version has better resistance modifiers compared to standard and elite in addition to better health and damage

Is it possible to still get the tech for it? I recently got it and Romero but the tech doesn't seem to be available, thanks

Good to know. Is this official information? I've left my Darkstorm at level 20 and have neglected getting the Omega parts only expecting negligible health improvements and room for the Mine-proof Treads I'm not really interested in. I'll be sure to upgrade to Omega now that I know to expect better than a ~1% increase in durability. Mine-proof treads, and 10 day ~1% durability upgrades aren't good motivations in themselves. It'd be nice if Elite and Omega talents like that were advertised like hero and standard unit talents are.

its not a talent, its a hidden modifier that the unique gets from being promoted, elite and omega promotions dont just change the appearance of uniques and give 500 extra component capacity, if the tests are correct then the omega darkstorm has about 30% burst resistance when promoted to omega
 

The only difference between it and talents is that it is hidden. It shouldn't be. Hero and standard unit talents provide crucial motivation to prioritize upgrades. Players should equally know their motivations for upgrading unique units.

unique unit's promotions have always been optional but should you pursue them it will massively increase the impact of the unique unit  this is one of reason bonus modifiers arent revealed 

Yet that's also the exact reason they are revealed in heroes and standard units. Go figure.

you cant compare a unique to a hero because heroes cant beat uniques without being at their highest lvls and fully teched out and the hero must excel at taking down high health units to beat a unique but uniques can rival lvl 10 heroes easily at lvl 1 so heroes are more mandatory to be at their max lvl possible for maximum effectiveness, uniques in 1v1 situation will always win against any non maxed out hero

I just did compare them and that's not really true, lol. You're talking in generalities that don't really reflect reality. There's dozens of exceptions to the generalities you pointed out.

the point remains the same, unique's elite and omega promotions are optional and its up to the player if he\she wants to do them, if they want to then it offers many benefits, some are hidden some are visible (like the chopper company getting another chopper each promotion) and for the time being its staying this way

For the time being, no it's not staying that way. They've come up with a good design pattern with hero and standard unit talents and advertising them. Now apply that good design pattern to uniques. It's already there, just not advertised. it wouldn't take a lot of development resources to advertise them. Stop overzealously defending the status quo and put a word in for it in Discord, please. I think you'll find the designers much more susceptible to the idea than you are and much less invested in the status quo. If they were hero and standard unit talents would have never been advertised.

Unless it takes so long that the unit is useless when it happens.

i know this is off topic.  but what's the deal with the out back?
it refuses too enter battle. is this a glitch?

thank you
