Will I still be able to get Heist challenges till January?
Will I still be able to get Heist challenges till January?
Yep.
Endless delve is gonna be interesting. I wonder how the extra skillpoints will be awarded
You get your quest passive points automatically at various level thresholds.
I really think endless delve ladder should be depth and not level. The other two events are exp race. Make the delve event a depth race.
The ladder should be sorted by depth.
Looks nice. 2 questions:
- I assume the Delve event ladder goes by depth and not exp(like events usually do) right?
- Am I correctly reading that the Mayhem event won't have Heist?
Correct on both counts.
Will I be able to delve with teammates? Also how does trading work in endless delve, just swirly to them?
Delve is Solo Self-Found only. There are no towns or hideouts in this event so it's impossible to party/trade.
What about the current League? Can I play my character I have now until January?
Absolutely.
can we finish league challenges in the flashback or other events?
In Flashback, yes. In Mayhem/Endless Delve, no.
Heist is not ending prematurely, correct? Heist league as it is will still go until the usual approx. 1 week before next league launches?
Heist is ending January 11.
Can someone explain what's the point of a flashback Heist league? After reading what it entails, it's basically what we get in mapping & a few small differences with same league mechanic. Seems a bit pointless after playing Heist for 3 months? The other 2 look super hype though!
This allows people to continue their challenges without missing out on the event.
Shame its all the same demi-god reward considering its been years since we've even had a chance at getting any of them.
This is a new Demigod's award.
Why is Endless Delve XP race and not a depth race? That's so strange and disappointing...We have XP races on the other two events, please make Delve one depth race, it makes so much more sense.
The ladder will be based on depth.
What's the difference between normal delve??
You don't need sulphite to make progress and all of your gameplay takes place in the Azurite Mine.
This rises a question, will we be able to use crafting bench from hideout? u/bex_ggg
Nope. You won't have access to your Hideout.
I might have missed it in the post but can you play ssf hc in each of these events?
You can.
Does this mean I'm guaranteed 3 mystery boxes if I reach level 50 in all 3 events, or is it just 1?
Yes, if you reached level 50 in all three events, you would receive three mystery boxes.
Is the starter gear for Endless Delve the same/similar to the uniques from Descent Champions? I'd personally really like that!
Similar! We'll reveal them closer to the event.
Will there be access to the crafting bench in the delve event?
Nope.
How will mayhem timer affect heist types, does each type have a different timer?
Heist isn't part of Mayhem.
We can't enter towns or hideouts in endless delve, but can we enter act areas for spectres?
You can't go anywhere except the Mine Encampment and Azurite Mine.
What about using crafting bench from hideout?
You can't.
/u/bex_ggg is this something you would ever consider?
I'm very doubtful the team would go for that but I'll certainly raise the feedback.
Void league is unfun and sucks. It is not worth playing.
Can you explain the reason for voiding those leagues?
So many exalts were printed in Heist, that 20 harbringers will not distract standard economy.
For me this is a big disincentive to even play. Void leagues are a thing of the past - every progress you get there is lost - what makes it not worth the time investment.
Also for me it is hard to understand why you cant have 3 different items for each race. Even renamed. (I also dont understand why graphic artist cannot have 3 different graphics, or even recolored the already made ones).
We made sure at least one event wasn't Voided so that people who prefer not to play Voided events have options.
Hey Bex i got a few questions regarding endless delve:
- how will we get/choose from bandit choices?
- for blight oils, is there any way we can get them?
- if there is no hideout then will there be a crafting bench available?
- if the event is voided after it ends (and for mayhem too), what happens to our characters and stashes
In Mayhem the mods are added to "each area in wraeclast" does this exclude the atlas?
Maps are included.
I like mayhem and delve but heist flashback not so much, leveling those npcs again and falling asleep while waiting for door/chests to open, im gonna pass on the 3rd event.
If Heist isn't your cup of tea, it's completely possible to play the Flashback event and not engage with Heist content. It's just included so that people can keep completing their challenges without missing out on the event.
will league modifiers in the flashback be able to spawn in heists? like beyond for example.
They won't be able to spawn in Heists.
Is the Delve Event Voided? Not stated in the post.
And is Heist now extended to january?
Yes, it's voided. Yes, Heist ends January 11.
Will Delve progress still be account wide in endless delve?
Yes, still account-wide.
Since there's no hideout in endless delve, does that mean there's no bench crafting?
Also no betrayal crafts?
Right.
Doesn't the heist league end tho.
So you get moved to standard, without heist, and none of them map etc progress carries over.I haven't touched standard for 6 years.
Heist ends on January 11.
Any chance we will have access to legacy Supporter Packs we may have missed in the past?
Nope, sorry. Those were sold as exclusive packs so we can't ever bring them back.
/u/Bex_GGG I'm curious how Labyrinth is handled in endless delve. Will we have any way of aquiring Ascendancies?
Yes, you'll have access to the Altar of Ascendancy in the mine encampment. It and your Ascendancy Points will become available to you as you meet various level thresholds.
heist flashback when we've literally had heist the last few months? why not flashback a better mechanic, like metamorph
Heist is included so that people can continue to complete their challenges without missing out on the event.
Announcement livestream for the new league? Is that the usual pre-league Baeclast or are you guys actually going to do your own stream on GGG's Twitch channel?
We'll be hosting the announcement livestream on our channel. I can't say too much yet but there's a fair bit happening with that.
Heist Flashback ends jan 4th, but Heist itself runs until jan 11th. Does this mean Heist is treated as parent league for Heist Flashback?
Yes, Heist is the parent league for the Flashback event. When the Flashback event ends, your characters and items will merge into Heist.
[deleted]
Yes.
Alongside Heist, each area in Wraeclast will have a random selection of three of the following mods present.
is this mean contract/blueprint can have 3mods?
Flashback mods won't appear inside Heist content.
More events are always appreciated just a couple points of feedback for the next time maybe (or even this time?):
- I personally don't care too much about the leagues being voided but last time we had a voided event a lot of people really didn't like that. I don't think having the event not voided would be too damaging to the std economy given how crazy the loot got in the recent leagues. Especially for the endless Delve one, Heist is magnitudes more rewarding unless you really make it down to 2000 delve.
- Imo most of the Flashback mods are a bit undertuned. Especially the rogue exiles, strongboxes, Torment ghosts, Breach and Abyss. (But honestly really anything that isn't Delirium and Beyond would really be cool if it was doubled)
- More of a personal thing: I find the Delve one the most interesting because it's new but now it is in the Cyberpunk launch week >:(
That is sad tbh, doesn't that mean in theory one person could claim many or even all top ranked spots if they pulled far enough ahead? Swap char/gear and run an "easy" auto complete node?
I'll raise this.
Alright first world problem but if we win one of the random draws and we already have the mtx do we just get a duplicate?
Yes.
Is heist active in mayhem event?
No.
Anyone else realized that 3.13 Announcement will be 1 week before launch?
Should be interesting to see how it goes having them close together like that.
I'm surprised that after so many leagues, Mayhem is still using the same mods from 3 years ago. It could easily be made crazier
We added Harbinger too.
Can we get a preview as to what the endless delve characters get to start with please?
Yes, we'll reveal the items a little closer to the event.
Will we have access to a gem vendor in endless delve?
Will Kitava resistance penalties be applied somehow in endless delve?
Yes to both.
what is the point of playing solo sefl fround on mayhem if rewards are shered for all league type. It's easier to access better items by trading
Some people enjoy the added challenge.
Does that mean that you can progress the Heist challanges in the Heist flashback?
Yes
Are we going to have any further info/teasers about 3.13 before that though?
Yep
Which of these events are ssf? Its my understanding mayhem and delve are at the least but I might be missing something
There's a SSF option for each event. Delve is SSF only.
When I get the mystery box for example, will I still have the prizes after the event ends?
Yes
Will we be able to earn the Out of the Gate achievement from any of these events?
Yep!
Will endless delve have enchanting device? It also would be interesting if we could choose enchants for this event.
No, you can't enchant your items from the Altar of Ascendancy in the encampment.
Edit: flip flopped the answer
Bex, will we have access to the crafting bench in endless delve?
And a way to get the normal crafts and/or the unveils?
Edit: I'm sorry. I later realised this has been asked and answered a million times already.
No
yeah, endless delve can't be account wide, it has to be every Char starts from beginning, else the ascendancy ladder makes no sense at all!
Yeah looking likely to be the case.
Will we get some Access to skill gems, like a vendor or do we have to finde those aswell?
Yes. Lily Roth is in the encampment for the event.
Boring - when is the next league being announced? Thought that was today! Non
We’ll announce 3.13 on January 7
Well, I'm not spending my holidays leveling and acquiring stuff just to lose a week later. PoE in January only it seems.
Flashback isn't voided.
For the voided events, will we still need free character slots to participate? Ie: if i am at max characters, will I have to make some room? Or since these characters can’t migrate anyways, they have their own dedicated slo count?
Yes
What about gem vendor? That would sort of be a big deal having one of those or not.
Lily Roth is available in the encampment.
Confused... can we still play standard heist league if we aren’t keen to starting a new player once a week in the month of December?
Yes, you can. Heist won't end until January 11.
So do you have access to your old characters stash when youre doing these flashback events?
No, you start fresh.
Does endless delve mean there will be less skill points because there aren't any quests? And what about gem vendors?
Lily Roth is available in the Mine Encampment. You'll receive your quest skill points automatically at various level thresholds.
Does ascension work the same way?
Yes.
ummm?
- Jan 8 - 3.13 Announcement
- Jan 12 - Balance Manifesto
- Jan 13 - Patch Notes
Yeah, something like that.
Are characters entered into all reward raffles they qualify for, or for just the highest one?
Say for example I make it to level 80. Is that character entered into the drawing for the level 60, 70, and 80 rewards? Or just for the level 80 rewards?
All of them.
3.13 announcement on a monday and only 8 days later the league launches on a tuesday? what the hell is going on
It’s really the only date we can announce on for the launch date because of Christmas etc.
Will the extra flashback modifiers be active in heist missions?
No, they don’t play nice together unfortunately.
u/Bex_GGG Will we have access to our current stash for these events?
No, characters start fresh without past items.
heist flashback while heist is actually running? guess i have to check the meaning of flashback again... any other mechanic would have been fine but heist+3 mods when the league is actually running just looks like low effort to me.
This is how the last few flashbacks have been run. It allows people to keep working on their challenges without missing out on the event.
Why are they due to start on a monday instead of usual league start days (saturday for me in aus)
They start on Saturday in NZ/AUS. Can you tell me which part was misleading? I’d like to fix it.
Just tell me we don’t have to open 10 breaches in mayhem 1 by 1 ...
It’s optional but that’s the only way to do it, yes.
Will this be on console on the same days as well?
That’s the plan.
If we die we have to create a new character or is death allowed ?
If you’re playing in the Standard versions of these events, then your character can die and just incur an experience penalty. You don’t have to play hardcore.
is the current heist league ending on 4th december?
January 11th
have you considered making it without ladder/rewards if you choose to play in party? I would really like to see the deeper parts of delve and also meet aul some time but ssf? nah ty
It’s not technically possible to play in a party.
Can I still finish Heist challenges during mayhem tho?
Not during Mayhem but you can during Flashback.
Can the random 3 mods selected for each area choose the same mod more than once in the flashback event?
Yes
So it doesn't matter if you play standard or hardcore for getting rewards?
Right - you should pick the mode you prefer.
Hi Bex,
Really appreciate the GGG team's work on this.
I understand why this is SSF from the position of maintaining the purity of the leaderboards - but is there any chance we will be able to make private leagues to allow for party play (and be removed from the leader boards)?
I know that my group would 100% prefer to play as a team as opposed to solo; even if the private league cost was higher as a result of the additional dev time//short length of league.
Thanks in advance for any response :)!
It’s SSF because it’s not technically possible to party - there are no towns or hideouts.
Ma'am would it be possible to make it happen?
That’s how we wanted it to work but many of the mods don’t work well in Heist content so we needed I disable them.
since we will have gem npc, and altar for ascendancies... will there be a regular magic shop vendor?(for currency swaps basicly)
Yes
u/Bex_GGG the new core supporter packs , will they be revelead on january 7th? together with the 3.13 livestream?
Core supporter packs should be out around mid Decemeber. New league packs out alongside the announcement livestream.
Are the dates listed for mayhem, delve, flashback also the release dates for console for those events?
Usually console is a little behind PC for releases, but I don't see any notes for console except for the next league launch.
Yep, console should be alongside PC for these events.
Will there be any teasers of note prior to that?
In the past the trailer drop has been the start of a drip feed of teasers, will that be changed here?
Yep.
If the new core supporter packs are out mid-december does that mean we are getting an announcement for the new endgame expansion mid-december as well? Assuming the new packs are themed with the expansion like the current ones
3.13’s announcement is January 8th alongside new league packs. The core packs come out first.
I could be wrong but I think you've missunderstood the question (or I do). I think the meaning was:
"Can an area have multiple of the same mod at one point in time, eg. out of all mods it rolls 3x "2 additional strongboxes" which results in +6 strongboxes? Or it does it always have to be 3 different mods at given time?"
Three different ones.
Can you clarify this point? Each mode: soft, hc, solohc, solo soft, have their own mtx. That is, it makes sense for me to go to the hc in order to have a better chance of winning prizes? Or it makes no sense that I up 95 on soft, which is 95 on hc, the same prizes will be raffled between the hc and soft.
Playing the Hardcore version to compete against fewer people would only potentially be effective for the Demigod's Authority prizes. For microtransactions, the prize pool is shared across all versions so you would have the same chances regardless of which version you played in.
Obviously you can't give exact info, but maybe you can answer: will new core supporter packs have completely new physical items or it will be more kinda the same? Book in previous ones was really cool.
There are new physical items that are different to what’s contained in the current core packs.
