my conspiracy theory
Why was Ararebo (super super super rare melee weapon) unexpectedly available only for 24 hours in the weekly scrap exchange?
And why is the End of Round glitch now?
This saturday is the anniversary of the First World War's end.
At the 11th hour on the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918, the Great War ends.

I was lucky and got the ararebo when I accidentally appeared last time. Using it exclusively as my melee weapon and am up to 750 kills. Was just thinking of how to help other players out.

I think it's good news that the End of round glitch is not over yet.
In the past, DICE gave a lot of battlepacks during such glitches.
I think an extraordinary gift is expected (maybe Arditi Dagger or Coupe Coupe puzzle piece in weekly scrap exchange)Battlefield 1 glitch 2023.11.08. 12:37 (UTC)

@HUN_gattaca_lg Do you remember how long did the glitch last the last time? I'm still wondering what caused it, personally I don't think it was caused by the Ararebo as some people have been reporting the glitch as early as Saturday or Sunday. I hope though there will be some form of compensation.
If i remember correctly there even was a fourth ultra-rare melee weapon (besides Ararebo, Arditi Dagger and Coupe Coupe) called "Barbed Wire Bat" although I'm not sure how could you get it.

I was able to get the Ararebo the other day but... how do you equip it? When I go to Customize Soldier to update my melee weapon for each class, the Ararebo doesn't show up. If I go to Inventory, I see it.

@badstink2
Equip it once you’ve entered the game; but, before you join the battlefield. - 2 years ago@Colt6940H Bingo! Thanks. I hadn't played in a couple of months and seem to have forgotten everything, including how to equip the non-standard weapons.

Please post skins for Fedorov, Nagant or Vetterli today.
I beg you very much.

There are only Farquhar–Hill, Ribeyrolles and Trench Carbine without gold skins for me. Expecting for the rotation!🥳

Not from Sweden. May I ask if Sweden has a holiday today, so the manager is on vacation?😢
- MLG_HOCK2192 years agoSeasoned Veteran
Yep doesn’t look like it updated today but it’s early
- nshrr2 years agoRising Adventurer
Well if it updates tomorrow instead of today it almost guarantees there's an automated system as the exchange was last updated last tues.

Forgot about us again?

Usually the exchange updates at 9 I feel like
- 2 years ago@Likeasombood No. 5-6

Yeah it always updates around 9
- MLG_HOCK2192 years agoSeasoned Veteran
Might update at the next hour but so far no update
- 2 years ago
I don't think we'll get an update today, the last week Tuesday's update was probably only because of the Ararebo.
- MLG_HOCK2192 years agoSeasoned Veteran
@mrtnm1994117What I was saying. Might update sometime soon but as of right now, nothing

Dice pls update the weekly scrap exchange
sry my hunglish
Think about what if Dice does not update the weekly scrap exchange any more and if Maria's battlepack theory is true, then 78 skins will no longer be obtainable in the BF1 game.
According to Maria, 78 skins are not dropped from battlepacks, because this 78 skins are exchange exclusive.
Anyway, I started to believe in Maria's battlepack theory. Why?
The player can collect a total of 846 skins in the BF1 game.
It took me almost 5 years to get my last missing skin.
This "very hard to get" skin was the Schoenberg legendary skin for Maschinenpistole M1912/P.16
The Schoenberg legendary skin was included by Dice in the scrap exchange TWICE:
The first time the Schoenberg legendary skin is in the scrap exchange, was October 29th, 2018
https://battlefield.fandom.com/wiki/Battlepack/Battlefield_1_Retired_Series#Exchange_#111
EXCHANGE #111
Added on October 29th, 2018 taken off the rotation November 5th, 2018.
The second time the Schoenberg legendary skin is in the scrap exchange, was May 5th, 2022
I didn't buy the the Schoenberg skin in 2018, but I finally got it in 2022.

If you remember, there was a case this year when Dice forgot about the the Schoenberg legendary skin for Maschinenpistole M1912/P.16. and Dice did not correct the error.
my screenshot, 2023.08.14.jpeg
smgs Maschinenpistole M1912/P.16, sidearms 1903 Hammerless, sidearms Auto revolver, shotguns Sjögren Inertial Shotgun, vehicles Destroyer, vehicles Assault Truck, vehicles Airship
The point is that I opened thousands of battlepacks in 5 years, but only The Tyrolean legendary skin was always repeated in this way for Maschinenpistole M1912/P.16.
The Schoenberg legendary skin for Maschinenpistole M1912/P.16 may never be dropped by the battlepacks, this skin is exchange exclusive.
That is, if Dice does not update the exchange, then this skin will no longer be available in the BF1 game... - 2 years ago
@HUN_gattaca_lg I think the Schoenberg might still appear if the Maschinenpistole comes up in the exchange again or as a special gift like the Thord-Gray. I assume that the skins are added individually one by one because by the time Thord-Gray appeared, the Sjögren had already been taken out of the exchange and Thord-Gray was therefore the only Sjögren skin that week, the rest being other guns.
I suppose that theoretically it would be possible to update the exchange so that it would only contain exchange-only legendaries, though it's clear that's not gonna happen.
