Improving PTR backstories has been in our backlog for a while but we definitely want to make testing new content as easy as possible for you so that you can give us meaningful feedback to improve the game. In a future PTR update the following changes will be coming to backstories;

  • Added Brimstone Territory Vials to backstories.
  • Upped Umbral Shards from 10k to 90k
  • Added Perk Mods to backstories
  • Added Timeless Shards to backstories
  • Added 2500 Golden Scarabs to backstories
  • Added Squash to food boxes
  • Increased quantity of Asmodeum/Runic/etc
  • Removed tuning orbs from boxes
  • Added Arena Tuning Orbs to boxes
  • Added Instruments
  • Added Desert Sunrise
  • Added Human Bane Coatings
  • Added stat mods to perk mod boxes
  • Added Mutation Materia Caches
  • Increased quantity of Gems
  • Enabling town buffs on PTR builds.

Please note that these changes won’t be retroactive, so you’ll need to make a new character to receive these changes. If you have specific requests for future updates to the backstories please let me know and we’ll work to get those added.

Hello! I do want to level set expectations, there’s only 250 of each attribute mod in this backstory. Will work to significantly increase that number for easier gear rolling in the future, it should’ve been higher to begin with but hopefully this is an overall improvement to your testing experience.
