Not only that the "go to collect" button was also useful. I managed to upgrade the free 5 star character without opening the interactive map to locate its materials.
And just making it at least less of a cakewalk to be in the OW than it already is. Bad players are pretending like they can't just stay in a lower WL, lol.
I'm just grateful they decreased the fate points to 1 because it's been 2 years since I've pulled on the weapon banner after I lost consecutively to the point that I considered it a scam and never pulled on it again.
@@encrypted0547yeah it's still a scam but not like before where you literally have to save up 200+ pulls if you 100% want to guarantee your weapon. In that case you just have to make sure you pull your weapon before the banner ends or don't pull on the weapon banner unless it's your desired weapon. But honestly, I don't like how they made the weapon banner like this. I'm on wuwa side in terms of weapon banners because theirs is always guaranteed.
@@CodeKokeshi GI is gacha game and GI won't abandon it's gacha nature just to please some players. Weapon is perfect now, just like character banner you'll get your thing on second try if don't get it on your first. There's no gacha in ww weapon banner. Another thing, in ww weapons are just stat sticks. In GI u see and use your weapon very clearly but in ww you won't even see your weapon for 90% of the time so, all make sense. In HSR you have 75% chance, but every HSR characters have their own unique weapons. Every thing make sense in every gacha game. You people just want everything for free.

Well goblet is always better to be off piece anyway. Getting a good flower and feather is easier, so spending it on sands and circlet is most optimal variant.
yeah once a patch sure maybe if we could take an existing relic and swap stats it would be great, could roll trash and swap for gold. But if im rolling it into trash anyway, why put this rediculous cap on it, it already takes an exhaustive amount of xp to get a single point, and you need 4, 16 lv 20 artifacts is a rather large ask to begin with, why cap it in such an absurd manner if we still can't even guarantee anything.

One weekly reputation quests gives 30,000 mora × 3 (bounty) + 20,000 mora × 3 (requests) = 1,50,000 mora/week Multiplying it by 6 weeks (42 days) = one update = 900,000 mora They compensated us by giving us 1Million mora without doing anything and we have the Natlan reputation quest too So if they keep up with this 1M mora thing each update they are actually saving us time

@@ThePenguinsKing Yes, but once you 100% the map, then it's going to be a problem. Hopefully, they'll give it to us from events though. Or at least increase the limit.
@@manilarome9600 they will probably give them from events in the future + you get them from the sigil thing. I still think this system is miles better than HSRs, just yesterday I use 9 I saved up over all of penacony to craft a wind orb. None of them were double crit and the only good one had atk% and crit rate and only rolled into atk% once and into hp% and ehr for the rest. in my opinion what this system is best used for is when you farm for a character and have 3 out of the 4 good on pieces and then want one thats at least decent, which isnt necessarily the goblet. When I was farming for emilie for example I got a really good goblet and a solid circlet almost 2 weeks before getting a good sands.
So glad they finally did this. So many players (including myself) have been NAGGING them about this for over 2.5 years! Idk if the calculations or whatever were off before, but something HAD to have been wrong for the difference in drops between nobushi/Kairaigi & Specters vs all other enemies, including Inazuman, to be THAT.

I hope they add more quality of life update like this. To this day, I'm still answering surveys just to add on the feedback that they need to fix the exploration aspect of the game, like when climbing, a small obstacle can stress you out.
Stress you out? How, lmao. Go around it, literally. 💀 Or, more likely, you were going the wrong way to begin with. People like you are why surveys are rarely taken seriously.
@@CodeKokeshi ever considered that that’s intentional? To make exploration more of a challenge. It’s already been improved at least once as far as I know, as well as when yelan was released for small ledges to walk over.
Huh what's the problem with elixirs Exp relic system is still same right? It's just make less redundant and less confucing Just like in HSR when you salvage your unused relic it become that yellow thingy
Exactly. Some sources had information that one cycle lasts 14 days but on release we get 42 days. It's horrible. Even if the duration of one cycle was 21-28 days this system would be way better
They really trolled us with malicious compliance. Especially with the transmuter. Shows enticing changes on the surface just to lure exhausted players back... and then fucks up the changes with enough beaureacracy that it hardly matters or improves the game's quality. Genshin is so stubborn to change that I wonder if devs derive some sick pleasure from torturing its masochistic playerbase who are begging for scraps. Any improvements somehow must have a catch that players do not feel any satisfatory improvement. Also unsurprisingly, I have switched to Wuwa as of yesterday.
At least now the 40 resin bosses drop 3 items, for a moment I thought I finally had a moment of luck but no, it was only because I raised the world level to 9
Thanks for putting all the effort into gathering, timestamping and editing these! I don't play Genshin all that much anymore, but these are interesting to watch :D
Can't believe they took the massive win of artifact breakdown and specified crafting and limited it to one use per set every 42 days. Such a disappointment. Edit: So you can only extract 1 essence per cycle, but the artifact slot I'd likely be using it on requires 4. So that means I need to wait 6 months of extracting to get the 4? I'm assuming there will be some other way via events etc. to get them, but that's so damn stingy to have the system work like that. Why cap the amount of extractions at all? Such a bad feel to that.
Bro, I was expecting something like this the minute they announced it. Genshin player from day ONE- I already know how Hoyo works. Always expect this sort of stuff from them.
As I expected from the Sanctifying Elixir system, not really worth it and does not benefit or ease or even solve our endless artifact grind. And no, interchanging artifacts between characters is not the solution to it (e.g. artifact loudouts). They have to change the whole artifact system, either get rid of the resin requirement for farming, balance the chance to get better stats or increase the 5* artifact drops + make it that four stats are 100% guaranteed at the max world level. If they are going to increase the difficulty in the abyss or imaginarium theater, people should be able to receive somewhat decent artifact sets for that. I know there are ppl who are casually playing and don’t bother with the artifacts but still there are as well some who want to optimise their characters because that’s what they enjoy doing. If we want any kind of change, then we have give our feedback to it in every single survey. Otherwise it will still remain like that…
@@user-lk6wy8mz6w well it is an objective and constructive feedback imho. I don’t care if ppl will classify this as whining and being unhappy. On the contrary, I try to voice my concerns and the problems with this system just to make it more new player friendly and to be a better game in general. I think everyone can agree on that this grind is tiresome and it is probably one of the most causes why ppl are dropping and leaving Genshin Impact, what I think is a shame because this game is really beautiful and fun to play! I mean…I love this game, why not strife to make it even better?
@@otomoran201 It's not... I had a hope it would with Natlan, but I knew it was generally not going to. Best to just get a game that centers itself on being a game more than a cash grab...
If they remove the grind then you just get people bored easily. Cause they accomplish their goals to quickly and will leave anyway. That why the grind exist. What else are you going to do if they did remove the grind. Probably nothing right, cause endgame is 2 week thing. At that point nothing to grind for which is what they want to prevent. The truth is people leave regardless cause they get bored eventually and want to find the newest thing to play. Also the grind really isn’t that bad. Playing 4 years now, the only time you got to worry about artifact sub stats for min maxing are for main dps. Other times for most support a primary stats being the right stat is all you need.
What a great video to wake up to. I always look up to them because you explain the patch notes so well. When I logged in to Genshin yesterday after maintenance I was like, MORE NAMECARD SLOTS?? MORE CHARACTER SLOTS?? Then I was looking for your channel and the video wasn’t up yet but now it isss ❤ Thank you for your videos
Look I know a lot of people are going on about the negative changes (and there's quite a few), but when I saw that load limit increase for the Pot I was so dang happy.

@clockworkheart5844 Oh trust me, as someone who played WildStar when it was still around, Genshin's housing leaves a lot to be desired. But even still, being able to put a couple more event items down or some more buildings to fill up an empty corner is better than I was hoping for (which was just another mainline update with no housing limit increase).
@@HiddenGemsReviews Oh man, I forgot about WS. I'm not proud of how many hours I put into the building on that. xD ESO also has a really meaty building system. But, Genshin is just a gacha unfortunately.

Community - "We need custom artifact maker." Hoyo - We "love" are community so lets add it. Community - "Thank you, it will be the most usefull addition." Hoyo - Usefull ?? "I forgot the part where thats my problem."
It's better than nothing at least. Hope that will ease the difficulty of trying to get the right main stat for certain character. Like finding that god damn em circlet for kuki and kazuha which can be hard as hell.
@@NoumLyye Imagine spending 126 days on waiting for circlet with Crit DMG in the main stat and crit rate in the subs and in the end it just procs everything in def% What a bullshit of a system
Artifact transmuter is pretty much a scam and the time you have to wait between each cycle and the amount of artifact you have to waste is so stressful to think of.
tracking regional specialties is the best addition in my opinion. it is so easy to collect upgrade material and stuff i love it. especially with a tracking unit that shows them on the map. for example gorou for inazuma, kachina for natlan. it was pure pain for me to collect nadu weed for yoimiya back when she came out.
the artifacts and the crown feel like just more problems, such great and thoughtful ideas implemented in such a disgusting and predatory way that they only exacerbate the problems they were meant to fix, doesn't matter how much you expect Genshin Team to disappoint they always manage to go beyond any expectative -_-
The crown affects *checks notes * Nobody (it’s just nice for people who have less of them and can’t be bothered to play/are busy, a crown has more value than 10 wishes) And the artefact thingy is there to help players get more characters to a usable level (incentivising horizontal investment for IT) If you seriously believe they are going to give you infinite 50CV artefacts then you need to wake up because you’re dreaming

...wow a frigging 5% more chance to get the feature character...SUCH GREAT DIFFERENCE IN RATES. Ugh...better than nothing I guess but wow even Genshin devs couldn't get that right then again I don't know the rates for HSR if its a 60/40 chance of getting the character featured on the banner. But again I don't know how the rates work so yeah. But a five percent chance is pitifully not a huge difference. EDIT: OH THANK GOD WE CAN FINALLY TRACK FLOWERS AND SUCH FOR CHARACTER ACCENSION...THANK GOD
Man most of the changes from 0:00 to 4:15 should've happened in 3.0, but man the removal of reputation quests when you are maxed out really hurts in the long run. Also World lv9 should just give the possibility to challenge weekly boss more than once.

A big NO for remove the reputation max, what happen we max the natlan right now , how we complete and get more points for battle pass, im still doing tho even max all with fontaine before just for battle pass
Im just wondering. If reputation quests like weekly Bounties and Requests are locked when you reach max level of a given region, fair enough because you’ve got max XP for that region, I can see what the devs are doing, but won’t that lock you from getting weekly BP XP for those who’ve maxed out each respective region, you know you get about a level’s worth of BP XP from those two weekly missions pertaining to reputation quests alone, or am I misunderstanding something?
the wl 9 is a good addition for older players as the material drops from bosses is increased amd make farming more efficient

Also no mod doing quick reputation quest at 3 Star difficulty for easy Mora.
That one genuinely pissed me off because I used it all the time.
Bro its not rlly that either, ITS THE GODDAMN TIME LIMIT DUDE. 40 DAYS?!?!?!?!?!
@@ramen3611only getting 1 per 40 days is insane💀like their baiting us with a good system
@@ramen3611 i 100% agree. It literally will take 4 patches just to _craft_ a good goblet that is not even guaranteed to get a good rolls
@@hertacorveraI think there are other ways to get it😂
I hope they add more quality of life update like this. To this day, I'm still answering surveys just to add on the feedback that they need to fix the exploration aspect of the game, like when climbing, a small obstacle can stress you out.
Stress you out?
How, lmao. Go around it, literally. 💀 Or, more likely, you were going the wrong way to begin with.
People like you are why surveys are rarely taken seriously.
@@CodeKokeshi ever considered that that’s intentional? To make exploration more of a challenge. It’s already been improved at least once as far as I know, as well as when yelan was released for small ledges to walk over.
@@luipaardprint lmao I remember the days where we got stuck on stairs and small rocks.
They aren’t fixing exploration u just gotta pay money for better movement 😂
@@luipaardprint :D exploration is not a challenge it is just annoying
the only problem in this update is the sanctifying elixir if genshin devs want to keep this alive they better make this more player friendly
I hope they will update that system
Its more than alive right now
@@silverhawkscape2677 1 elixir for 25 lv 4 relics every 40 days when you need 4 for a goblet is not alive
Huh what's the problem with elixirs
Exp relic system is still same right? It's just make less redundant and less confucing
Just like in HSR when you salvage your unused relic it become that yellow thingy
Exactly. Some sources had information that one cycle lasts 14 days but on release we get 42 days. It's horrible. Even if the duration of one cycle was 21-28 days this system would be way better
0:53 so you're telling me I pulled a Dehya, lost 55/45?
Feels worse don't it? I lost to c0 mona 😂
But hey atleast i got mualani c0 at 76 and c1 in 20
Today, I Lost It To 1 Qiqi, 1 Mona, 2 Jean, And 3 Diluc
I wish this video had a narration this feels like I’m reading patch notes with back ground music and pictures
4:40 this was a life changer
Singlehandedly turned my life upside side down. There's no going back
I guess the power to choose our main and substats is too good that they have to nerf it 💀
still 40 days for one substat choice is an insane nerf😭at this rate ill be 120 days per artifact and it can still roll badly
not a nerf if that was how it was originally
@@fishyo8067just give them feedback to give extra through event as well
Battle pass rewards another Elixir, but needs to spend $10 per version, for spenders it's nothing.
They really trolled us with malicious compliance. Especially with the transmuter. Shows enticing changes on the surface just to lure exhausted players back... and then fucks up the changes with enough beaureacracy that it hardly matters or improves the game's quality. Genshin is so stubborn to change that I wonder if devs derive some sick pleasure from torturing its masochistic playerbase who are begging for scraps. Any improvements somehow must have a catch that players do not feel any satisfatory improvement.
Also unsurprisingly, I have switched to Wuwa as of yesterday.
2:08 omg FINALLY now i can get all the rukkshawa mushrooms without one or two getting left out 😭😭
The enemies legit look so cool now. Like their attack styles are so much more unique than shoving a paddle in our faces from treasure hoarders
Right? I love how dynamic their fighting styles are, especially how they now use different attacks depending on how far away your character is.
hullo? Eremites were pretty cool!
I love how much energy they've put into the enemies. Holy shit-
Hydro Female warriors literally dive bomb you.b
At least now the 40 resin bosses drop 3 items, for a moment I thought I finally had a moment of luck but no, it was only because I raised the world level to 9
Spiral Abyss gonna be wild with the new enemies
Thanks for putting all the effort into gathering, timestamping and editing these!
I don't play Genshin all that much anymore, but these are interesting to watch :D
Wait...hold on a minute. You mean there is going to be a geo+pyro reaction in the future
I hope so! Geo+pyro should be magma lol. Also would be cool is we could get geo reactions with anemo (sandstorm), with hydro (mudslide) etc.
We had one, it's Crystalize
@Ryan14790 Yeah, but that works for every other elements too. I'm talking about specifically
Can't believe they took the massive win of artifact breakdown and specified crafting and limited it to one use per set every 42 days. Such a disappointment.
Edit: So you can only extract 1 essence per cycle, but the artifact slot I'd likely be using it on requires 4. So that means I need to wait 6 months of extracting to get the 4? I'm assuming there will be some other way via events etc. to get them, but that's so damn stingy to have the system work like that. Why cap the amount of extractions at all? Such a bad feel to that.
Yes, and watch the piece you waited for 160 days to craft roll all into the other two sub stats that you didn't pick
You can get more in events and quests
Bro, I was expecting something like this the minute they announced it. Genshin player from day ONE- I already know how Hoyo works. Always expect this sort of stuff from them.
As I expected from the Sanctifying Elixir system, not really worth it and does not benefit or ease or even solve our endless artifact grind.
And no, interchanging artifacts between characters is not the solution to it (e.g. artifact loudouts).
They have to change the whole artifact system, either get rid of the resin requirement for farming, balance the chance to get better stats or increase the 5* artifact drops + make it that four stats are 100% guaranteed at the max world level.
If they are going to increase the difficulty in the abyss or imaginarium theater, people should be able to receive somewhat decent artifact sets for that.
I know there are ppl who are casually playing and don’t bother with the artifacts but still there are as well some who want to optimise their characters because that’s what they enjoy doing.
If we want any kind of change, then we have give our feedback to it in every single survey. Otherwise it will still remain like that…
Same. But you can NEVER say that or you're just a whiner and complainer. You're never hApPy...
@@user-lk6wy8mz6w
well it is an objective and constructive feedback imho.
I don’t care if ppl will classify this as whining and being unhappy.
On the contrary, I try to voice my concerns and the problems with this system just to make it more new player friendly and to be a better game in general.
I think everyone can agree on that this grind is tiresome and it is probably one of the most causes why ppl are dropping and leaving Genshin Impact, what I think is a shame because this game is really beautiful and fun to play!
I mean…I love this game, why not strife to make it even better?
@@otomoran201 It's not... I had a hope it would with Natlan, but I knew it was generally not going to. Best to just get a game that centers itself on being a game more than a cash grab...
If they remove the grind then you just get people bored easily. Cause they accomplish their goals to quickly and will leave anyway. That why the grind exist. What else are you going to do if they did remove the grind. Probably nothing right, cause endgame is 2 week thing. At that point nothing to grind for which is what they want to prevent.
The truth is people leave regardless cause they get bored eventually and want to find the newest thing to play.
Also the grind really isn’t that bad. Playing 4 years now, the only time you got to worry about artifact sub stats for min maxing are for main dps. Other times for most support a primary stats being the right stat is all you need.
2:42 i just deleted 800 4-star artifacts for nothing 😭😭😭😭😭😭
You haven't watched the Livestream?
That's the fun part
What a great video to wake up to. I always look up to them because you explain the patch notes so well. When I logged in to Genshin yesterday after maintenance I was like, MORE NAMECARD SLOTS?? MORE CHARACTER SLOTS?? Then I was looking for your channel and the video wasn’t up yet but now it isss ❤
Thank you for your videos
I appreciate this being so neatly organized and tagged, so I can skip the parts that are spoilers to me. Amazing work as always
Look I know a lot of people are going on about the negative changes (and there's quite a few), but when I saw that load limit increase for the Pot I was so dang happy.
Enjoy your 2-3 more buildings, I suppose? That increase is basically nothing.
@clockworkheart5844 It's better than literally no updates to the load limit for years (since 1.6). Sometimes you just take what you get.
@@HiddenGemsReviews You're right, lol. I really wish the pot was better. I love the idea, and want so bad to create, but the limit just leaves everything so barren. 😢
@clockworkheart5844 Oh trust me, as someone who played WildStar when it was still around, Genshin's housing leaves a lot to be desired.
But even still, being able to put a couple more event items down or some more buildings to fill up an empty corner is better than I was hoping for (which was just another mainline update with no housing limit increase).
@@HiddenGemsReviews Oh man, I forgot about WS. I'm not proud of how many hours I put into the building on that. xD ESO also has a really meaty building system. But, Genshin is just a gacha unfortunately.
06:31 lmao, they're breakdancing 😭
PMFAO 😂😂😂 (p stands for paimoning my ass of )

2:08 as new player with ar 31 this is perfect i love these
Excellent overview and even highlighting details I hadn't known or didn't see really even mentioned, so many amazing changes and improvements!
if only these features were implemented 2 years ago this game would be so much better to play, at least we got it ig
The amount of quality of life features in this update are actually insane.
This is exactly the video I needed 🙏🏻
it's the nation of Breakdancing
Was waiting for this video to upload. I wanna know how the new enemies behaves before stepping into Natlan, especially cryo attack enemies, as I don't want to get frozen by enemies on the first day, and out of surprise there isn't any. Thx so much for the video, precise, on point and the overall visual done really great as well ❤

It’s more than 1 per update.
Yay I was looking forward to this!
Natlan is beautiful gosh and the music is amazing
Thanks for the great video! Honestly I love most of these QoL updates. And FINALLY the standard banner free 5-star we've been requesting for years!
No reputation tasks for maxed out ones is actually bad
I forgot how much but we lose out on like half a million mora every week
Thank you for making this video. Im playing and work a lot i real life so not have enough time for see all the update in community
Thanks for the information as always Cat :)
I mean, I welcomed the idea of reworking the theatre, but doubling down on the worst and most complained part of having a ludicrous roster of throw away characters wasn't what I expected... that's really bad, especially cause it's no vanity mode, but has primo rewards.
Appreciate these videos a lot! So compact and concise
There's also new reputation where you will have to do 6 different tribes quests to max reputation of natlan
FINALLY, No more max level 90. Something action
@@jeffhnh06 Hmmm? What are you referring to? Level 90 is still the max level for characters.
@@acardoza1234 They mean for enemies /gen
@@starling1773 Oh gotcha, that makes more sense. I looked it up and see that the max level of normal enemies increases from 98 to 103, and for bosses it increases from 93/94 to 103/104 (normal bosses / weekly bosses)
really appreciate your summary videos since they help me catch up with what to expect instead of having to read walls of texts. keep up the good work my sir

I see a whole listing of all the world quests, I hit subscribe.
I hope ppl complain abt the elixir. Seriously an awful scam.... truly a crocodile tear 😂😂😂😂
i think they will update that.
@@maituanchien5240 i hope they will, 42 days is too much
It's better than nothing at least. Hope that will ease the difficulty of trying to get the right main stat for certain character. Like finding that god damn em circlet for kuki and kazuha which can be hard as hell.

3:36 41 Days 🤡
Artifact transmuter is pretty much a scam and the time you have to wait between each cycle and the amount of artifact you have to waste is so stressful to think of.
And when I taught genshin was improving and learning from it's mistakes
there another way you can get them not just crafting.
@@maituanchien5240 Wait, there is? I just fed it 3 level 20 artifacts 🧠🔥
at least we have something to mitigate some of the chance, even if its in a 40 day period
tracking regional specialties is the best addition in my opinion. it is so easy to collect upgrade material and stuff i love it. especially with a tracking unit that shows them on the map. for example gorou for inazuma, kachina for natlan.
it was pure pain for me to collect nadu weed for yoimiya back when she came out.
reputation quests removed when maxed make more user cannot earn 60k mora every week alr
Petition to return it all
I level up a lot of characters fotr the IT and I have no mora left. Reputation quests was my only free way to get mora
Rip to me i guess
This made me so mad
wow I didn't even know people do those for the little mora it gives. I haven't needed mora in years, I'm at 78 million now

As per usual, thank you for this informative video. Every update I look forward to your post
All nice and all...
But i still can't get over the fact it took them 4 years to add the number of condensed Resin you own into the Crafting UI...
Maybe because it's not a big deal
The change to battle theme to now continue where you left off is a nice touch.
the artifacts and the crown feel like just more problems, such great and thoughtful ideas implemented in such a disgusting and predatory way that they only exacerbate the problems they were meant to fix, doesn't matter how much you expect Genshin Team to disappoint they always manage to go beyond any expectative -_-
My expectation are low but holy fuck..seems like genshin still could never
The crown affects *checks notes *
Nobody (it’s just nice for people who have less of them and can’t be bothered to play/are busy, a crown has more value than 10 wishes)
And the artefact thingy is there to help players get more characters to a usable level (incentivising horizontal investment for IT)
If you seriously believe they are going to give you infinite 50CV artefacts then you need to wake up because you’re dreaming

That last song at 1.5x speed is an absolute bop 😂 also, about damn time we get some good QoL changes... The new artifact thing is convoluted af, but it's an attempt at least.
gonna watch this while i wait for my client to update
The only feature that i like is how easy to collect material now, no need to mark or use interactive map anymore.
you are telling me i have to wait between 40 and 160 days to have a perfect artifact and risk being an max hp or def instead of cd/cr?

wait with the stamina at 1:56 , if you already maxed out all the statues do i get the stamina buff just added? or did i just fucking miss out now bc i completed everything
@@-luciella-3697
1. There is maximum stamina limit, if you maxed out Mondstadt and Liyue already you will not get more stamina.
2. Not your case, but if you haven't maxed out Mondstadt/Liyue and has levels on other statues, it will be added as stamina automatically after 5.0 update.
So no missing out in any case!

Started playing this game 20.10.2020. got to lvl 60 01.09.2024, 4 years grind, complete map is 100% explored, this account has been with me last 4 years and it hit lvl 60 on day my gf said she was pregnant, so this game is something special 💚💚💚
...wow a frigging 5% more chance to get the feature character...SUCH GREAT DIFFERENCE IN RATES. Ugh...better than nothing I guess but wow even Genshin devs couldn't get that right then again I don't know the rates for HSR if its a 60/40 chance of getting the character featured on the banner. But again I don't know how the rates work so yeah. But a five percent chance is pitifully not a huge difference.

@@Lady-zayna Idk
Man most of the changes from 0:00 to 4:15 should've happened in 3.0, but man the removal of reputation quests when you are maxed out really hurts in the long run. Also World lv9 should just give the possibility to challenge weekly boss more than once.
I’m surprised no one mentioned the strongbox upgrade, they even added MH and golden troupe, that’s a huge deal in my opinion
They don't care because they had their hopes up with that other artifact feature. A potential "guarantee" feature that was too good to be true.
@@BlakeAter yh I get that, but strongbox means farming whole sets for different characters, whereas the new mechanic only allows you to get a good artifact for ONE character. I prefer building multiple characters, than having a small buff for one. Am I missing something?

they mentioned it in the stream. They remove the battle pass mission for reputation and replace it with 3 new missions that also give you primogems.
@@yumiitoe9303 I think they removed this from tasks.
Each tribe has its own reputation. So we will get more than 1 for all of Natlan
thankiew everyone now i understand
Im just wondering. If reputation quests like weekly Bounties and Requests are locked when you reach max level of a given region, fair enough because you’ve got max XP for that region, I can see what the devs are doing, but won’t that lock you from getting weekly BP XP for those who’ve maxed out each respective region, you know you get about a level’s worth of BP XP from those two weekly missions pertaining to reputation quests alone, or am I misunderstanding something?
