The Coin

You can upgrade your coin for Silver and Gold concluding the Vanguard Challenges.

	Bronze:	Purchase the pass
	Silver:	Obtain 3 stars
	Gold:	* Obtain 4 stars

* Thanks to Scôrpion for this information.

You can have a gold medal without buying additional campaigns?

Hmm... let's see...

• We have 13 weeks to complete the missions, if you bought the pass in the week of release, you will manage to complete 26 missions.
  
• 8 missions are required to complete a challenge and make the star of that challenge.
  
• So you need almost 4 weeks to get the star and 3 star for upgrade to Silver.
  
• Then you get 6 stars in 12 weeks:
  + 4 weeks to complete the Green Challenge (1 Star)
  + 4 weeks to complete the Yellow Challenge (2 stars)
  + 4 weeks to complete the Red Challenge (3 stars)

So... yes, It's possible!! You will need ~8 weeks to upgrade to gold!

[ptrus]

Not is possible to buy in-game, but in market is... this happens because the operation is in the end.

[Trawdo]

[jay]

green challenge of the first mission pack and the red challenge of the second mission pack...

[ptrus]

You completed the Yellow Challenge FULL ?? It's necessary the full complete... if you jump the yellow for the red, you not receive the gold.

[jay]

well, i got 4 stars now and i'm silver?

[Osiris]

thanks:)

[ptrus]

Have 3 Challenges, Green, Yellow and Red and you receive for each 1, 2 and 3 stars respective... to obtain the GOLD COIN, you need 4 stars... but if you jump the Green Challenge and make only the Yellow and the Red, it's right if you obtain the Gold Medal, but i really don't know exactly... some players make this and not obtain the gold coin. So, make sure you complete the correctly sequence of the Challenge and good lucky!

[Osiris]
