In the future, would it be possible to keep a crown stuck to a loadout slot? Lots of crowns in the game now, and I know that people (myself included) are centering their fashion around the theme of their crown. Also, can you add a feature to copy ONLY a cosmetic set to another loadout slot without the weapon/armor load out being copied over as well?

There's lots of talk about what should and shouldn't be in a loadout slot when it comes to cosmetics! We may work on this in the future.

How many omnicells are you planning to have in total at the moment? I would like to have omnicells of all attributes.

We're loving the impact that Omnicells are having on build diversity and combat, so we want to keep making them until we start running out of ideas or feel like that space is getting saturated. We may also need to pause Omnicell development from time to time to focus on other areas like weapon refreshes or other types of content like exotics and lanterns. We're going to keep evaluating each season to see what makes the most sense and what excites players the most.

Hi! Argentina playera here, I've been wondering if south america servers are ever coming back. Playing with 160 ping it's kinda annoying, especially when it comes to interrupting behemoths without trading damage in the process.

Sorry, but not at this time. We're continuing to optimize the game to improve this over time.

We actually have an ongoing internal joke that our next weapn will be double shield. But seriously, we have considered all types of weapons, including some that include a shield.

*triple shield.

For a long time now, there has been no heraldic flag stand, heraldic flag emote, or landing emote in the rewards. Why is that? Also, I would like it to be complemented, is that possible?

Sorry, I'm unsure what you mean by this? The set isn't complete? I don't think we have any plans for this in the future.

Are the weapon / armour rumours introduced last patch here to stay? For example, it's been difficult gathering all parts of Phaelanx armour (as it requires minimum 36 kills for tail break) in order to enable the rumour.

Yes! Rumours that are time-limited will have a timer on them and are generally only 1 stage long (and part of events).

We don't have a number! We're going to make them until we feel that we have a number that feels right.

Why was the xp banking amount reduced from 8,850 to 3,500? In my honest opinion, it feels even more bad now since level 6 can be attained in approximately 10 mins of gameplay.

We are certainly open to extending this in the future, but we want to gather feedback and see how this feature affects play patterns first. Anything that affects the Reforge loop has a lot of implications on how players play the game and where they go to hunt, so we just want to be prudent before we introduce a radical change to the game.

Do you plan on expanding the gathering side of Dauntless, like revamping potion crafting, giving things like the foliage and ores uniqe gathering animations etc? Personally I think it's a quite lacking part of the experience.

Yeah! We think that there's a lot of untapped potential there that we'd like to explore but we're still trying to nail down the specifics.

I love the animals in Ramsgate. Some slayers play with people and animals by bouncing on them. Please do not allow this to happen. Also, could you please display the names of the two dogs in Ramsgate?

We will never remove the ability to jump on rams.

Sorry not sorry.

when will you guys add retries for esca? Its been almost 2 years since esca release and there's still hasn't been a way to play esca again without going back to ramsgate

That's not in the works right now. We'd rather use our resources elsewhere (such as new features).

For now, back to Ramsgate!

Will there be a new crown like last year's for the Dark Harvest event this month?

No new crown from the Nevermore event, but there is a new weapon skin (rumour) that is a must have for my own collection.

Those are sticking around!

Will you be refreshing or reworking Chainblade, Axe, and Hammer? Also, what are your current plans?

Chainblade is happening right now :D

Do you plan on adding any new gamemodes, and what are future plans for omni-cells?

We talk about new game modes all the time and pitch ideas internally. Game modes are a big investment and we don't want to water down the existing modes too much, so a lot of thought has to go into each new mode.

At this time, we're just in the ideation phase for any future modes and aren't actively working on new ones.

I think every behemoth needs its own lantern, as well as weapons and armor. What are your current lantern plans?

Lanterns are a low priority right now. We'd love to add more, and one day we will!

Will you rework any weapon after Chain Blades?

Axe and Hammer are next up (no committed order)

Has neutral just become the forgotten element? Because all the neutral weapons suck, there are no plans for a neutral legendary behemoth, there's no talk of giving neutral weapons an elemental proc, and you barely see any neutral behemoths in HG outside of events in the later islands. The Quillshot weapons aren't even planned to get a UE AFAIK. I get that it's largely a "beginner" element, but endgame players still get bounties for using neutral weaps, and there's something to be said for a weapon that performs equally well against everything, if only for farming purposes.

We've had talks about this recently. This is subject to change, but we don't have any plans to build more neutral content at this time, and have even talked about removing neutral as an element in the game. We don't feel like neutral has enough of an identity to ever make it a really exciting form of content and would rather invest more in stricter elemental gameplay.
