You pick the level, like 1-13 or 10-50. And you’ll get matched to any escalation of that level (that you’ve unlocked)

When you do a private hunt in a hunting ground, you will land alone. When will the whole party be able to land together?

On the list of things to tackle in the near future!!

The reward cache in patch 1.6.X did not have all the items from each hunt pass. I'm sure many people would like to complete the items for each hunt path. Do you have any plans to improve this?

New items will rotate into the vault section over the course of the season. Starting with alchemy themed items from Alchemy of War

Are any of the old huntpass clothes coming back the the vault? Also are there going to be any new bundles to buy in the store anytime soon?

Next up is a bunch of the items from the Alchemy themed season!

how will the thunder deep, bounty bonus and new behemoth events be like? will Ozz actually be apart of em? mainly asking about the bounty bonus event since I wanna know how it works

Previously, bounty bonus events just grant extra XP from bounties that you complete.

Ozz is hard at work, getting some new events ready - absolutely!

For the behemoth events in the roadmap image, these are brand new island events that you’ll find in the hunting grounds that feature that behemoth. Some will be spawned as normal, some will need players to take some action to trigger them.

Is there any chance for the huntpass exclusive tonics from back when the Terra Escalation came out, to return as a slayerpath nodes?

Perhaps have them be unlocked in a line after the 13-50 Terra Escalation node.

Yeah these are fun things that are exciting for limited times… but less fun when you always have them. I would expect to see a limited time event where they return for a bit

not for this upcoming season but it is a strong they may do something like that again for future seasons iirc

I really want to!

Great answer. And I actually kinda feel the same now when you mention it. I do hope it's 5-10 but from my experience with PHX (i.e. they like to slow down our progress), I'm gonna guess 15-50 is more likely. A hundred is way too diabolical Imo.

It’s 5 for a crown!

Many players are looking forward to making mini pets. What is the current priority of mini pets?

Pets are not currently being worked on, but still in the backlog. Personally, I would love to see them become a reality =)

Is the reward cache updated in patch 1.7.X only for patch 1.7.0? Also, is the reappearing hunt path still a secret? I would also like to know if it is possible to request it.

For each season, we add items as we progress. Then, we reset it at the end of the season. So it will reset in 1.7.0 and grow all the way up until 1.8.0.

Are there any extra plans about the new behemoth, for example element or level?

For element, there are some hints on the roadmap. We'll let you know more closer to the release date.

We don't have plans and they were mostly experiments. I'm sure we learned from them and their design will imfluence future tonics and omnicells etc

your rose-tinted glasses aren't letting you see straight, all old rams had the current didn't and is missed is the cave (plus some people who may have died in the evac but who knows/cares bout them)

I do miss the cave...

When will u add:

*Red crown for top 5

*Portals

*some new mode like arena fighting with behemoths, where last man standing (or person who deal most dmg) gain some prestige points who can be exchange for unique rewards? Just do new mode cause boringness is knocking to the door already.

BTW. Can u repair that bug when we deal dmg, the numbers do not pop up or they are lagged? it happen all the time.

Broadly, we're pretty happy with the the Trinity of Hunting Grounds, Escalation, and Trials. Unlikely that we'll add more modes any time soon, instead we want to make sure all three of these modes get the time, attention, and new content that they deserve going forward.

What was the season you were the most excited about and why is it the Ostian Season ? (Amazing work :) )

Honestly I bet this is a question each of us could answer with something totally different, but for me it comes down to finally introducing and expanding on lore that's been simmering, as it were, for a long time. Ostia has been a constant background presence in the game since its inception, and got a huge lore boost back when Zai was introduced with Koshai, we've even been supplementing the details with a few particularly Ostian hunt passes over the years like Seismic and Zephyr Strike. But we've never seen a piece of Ostia itself until now.

The concise question: Are there any plans to add more evergreen value to escalations?

The wordy background: Escalations have a ton of value while leveling but it quickly begins to feel tedious when you reach max rank and finish your gear farming. Escalations are some of the best content in game but I feel as though I am wasting my time playing them over Hunting Grounds. The booster for Charged Aether is basically useless to most late game players. I am worried about the longevity of heroic escalations if a few cosmic rewards are the extent of their value.

We'd really like to add a meta-progression system, similar to the Escalation Lantern trees but for Escalation as a mode overall. What this would look like, we're still discussing, we wanted to have Heroic Escalation out and live before we think more about that.

We also are hoping sometime soon after the launch of Heroic Escalation to get a Heroic+ system in place, allowing players to push their Heroic Escalation difficulty higher and higher for prestige and personal challenge.

When we get through our first full Heroic rotation, we can probably say more about the future of Escalation.

Is there any info we could get on the new galvanized cell?

Galvanized is a new companion cell to Tenacious, splitting it out into two cells. Tenacious will be retuned to focus on High health and bonus health builds for additional damage, while Galvanized will be tuned for high shield and Bastion Builds, generating bonus crit strike and damage.

Because we're doing this split, we'll be granting Galvanized Cells equal to the Tenacious Cells players have already collected.

Are the Thunderdeep Drask weapons and armour going to be thier own sets, or new skins? Either way, should we be expecting other variants to be getting the same treatment?

They're their own thing completely!

A few questions:

Ramsgate: When do we move to the next ramsgate...idk if it is a rumor but i heard there might be a invasion of this current ramsgate?

Heroic Escalations: Is there any rewards for doing these for those who already have all escalation weapons and armors? Also another rumor i heard is there suppose to be some type of crown for completing these heroic escalations

A Forever friend and Perfect Strike : So you are keeping the elders and shield boxes but taking away perfect strike and drone forever friend..so will you be replacing these with something that alot of people put time into these trees?

Dauntless Trails and Leadboard : Is there any reason to even continue doing these if you already have a gold crown and already been on the leaderboard..any rewards like exploration or combat meritts or even rams...something?

Heroic Escalation - There will be a weekly reward for these, with the ultimate reward for Heroic Escalation completion being the elemental crowns. As Heroic Escalation is designed for the most invested and experienced of our players, we don't wish to lock gameplay rewards behind it, but we're all for giving some cosmetic prestige to show off your mastery of the hardest mode we've built.

Faction Trees: These trees still have all your data saved, and may come in and out for future events, we're still thinking about the right way to handle these in the future, but the Radiant Drone is still your Friend Forever, and it will not be forgotten or left behind forever. As for the Elders and Primals, they'll remain in place on Paradox Breaks, and may get further tweaks and balance changes to make them feel good even without their companion trees.
