RE: respecs with I8 

Build looks very similar to what I had for the first Marine X at one point( I started with TP, then tried Flight, but settled on SuperJump because it was fast and had such a low endurance cost, plus CombatJumping gave me a good extra little bit of Defense ). Also only took Jab and punch till level 18 because I built him as a Team Tank Build, just an aggro-magnet.
I slot Rage with Accuracy Extentions and Recharge Reductions, if you 6 slot it, 3 each, it becomes PermaRage with only a few second pause where you can't attack anything.

Just incase you are assuming otherwise, i8 will NOT be giving us a freespec. However, if you have played for 9 or 18 mothes, youll get one.





Clicky.

As always, ignore when I put the slots in, I just tossed the build together. This'll give you a fairly aggressive build with a good amount of survivability. Jab, Haymaker, Air Superiority, and later Punch, make for a pretty solid attack chain, with KO Blow in there for a big finisher, Foot Stomp and Hurl as good attention getters, and Hand Clap makes for a very nice "Oh Crap!" damage mitigation power. Rage will literally make you into a pretty tough killing machine. The only downfall is the 10 second "crash" it has where you cannot affect anything other than yourself. Get used to timing Rage if you run it perma, and fire off Taunt or an AoE attention getter so you can keep as much aggro as possible on you while you can't punchvoke. Enjoy!

That should be in the "account details" section for coh/cov on your account.

Its not officially out yet and I read somewhere also your time paid techinically isnt what your vet reward will be but I think it can work as an estimated guess. Maybe I can find that news somewhere real fast.

Here is FAQ for Vet Rewards:
