Has anyone been offered a decent piece of advanced equipment on their CB? I haven't. Most of the stuff my CBs are getting has +Snarl or +% to Catch, while my DE and LB are getting things that'd be good for the CB, like +chance to deflect or intercept, +chance to avoid fake, etc. So, has anyone gotten something good?

i got a shirt :

+1 Dive Catch
+1 vision

60900$

don't know if it's really useful for a lvl 29 CB

Not really as you don't have a Dive Catch SA to keep boosting.

My LB got a +1 Speed and +1 Sticky Hands for $25,000

It's nice that there is a risk/reward for going shopping. There is a punter who got +1 Big Hit & +1 Tackling.

Superior Green Cleats
+1 Shutdown Coverage SA
$20k

this certainly seems worthwhile to get... but it will take a while to collect the Bonus Tokens to fully upgrade it. =/

other players I have, their store showed SA and +1 Skill... haven't seen that on my CB yet.

I got a +2 agility with Jump Catch SA. My CB is pretty happy with that.

I have a +2 speed +1 sticky hands that I'm probably going to end up buying. Seems at least decent.


Also in the same group of equipment a +2 agility +1 change direction.

But since they are both shirts I figure the speed/sticky hands is better for me.

I have not found a single item that is worth dropping a +4 speed equipment... and probably never will. Advanced equipment seems to be quite a bust tbh.

Blue Gloves - +1 speed & +1 Sticky Hands SA; cost $40,000

One of the best ones I've found so far....of course it was for my Level 32 Offensive Lineman.

My level 3 CB has what I think is a useful looking item in the store:


Superior Orange Shirt
+1 speed
Avoid fake chance +2%

totally agree. They should have found a way to add those advanced abilities to your current equipment set up rather than this.

I'm not a fan of the AE (yet, at least), but at lvl 3 I would definately pick that one up.

Problem is how far behind it is. It's great for players just starting out, but it can't compete with upgraded gear. And it's not like normal gear where you can just throw money at the problem and make it disappear.

It is definitely not for high level players.

At the same time, I think that over time, advanced equipment will be better for anyone that is basically starting off this season. At high levels, the 8 bonus tokens to upgrade equipment will be a much better investment than the 2 skill points one could otherwise get.

Made a new CB and out of the box I got +1 SPEED cleats. I imagine those things will pay for themselves as I can upgrade them twice a season.
