I know you get max gear level only starting from rep 8, but do you unlock all possible gear visuals too? I have 46 crates that I'm saving up to open at rep 8, but I wonder if I still need to be higher rep, like rep 12, to unlock some designs for armor & weapons like the new ones introduced last week.
Thanks.
Correct, although it's really a pain in the *** to unlock those last remaining pieces of armor because of RNG.
So don't be surprised if you need to level up a lot more than level 8!
On another thread there was an discussion (even involving a Ubisoft employee) to implement a system where you can unlock those remaining armor/ weapon pieces by paying in Steel/ Salvage. It got a lot of support to implement that feature! So let's hope they do it!
