Item
Supply Crate
Battlefield crates of gear, and the economy around them.
Supply crates hold battlefield gear and feed into the Cash and XP economy, you can sell items you do not need. That loop has been tuned to stop low-value items being farmed for easy XP, for the current values see the patch notes. Managing crate loot is part of building a cost-effective Loadout.
