Hey everyone,

While you all get stuck into Arch's release I thought I'd share what was found in the game cache that may not be known yet.

Note: I will try to edit this through the day and do not read if you don't want spoilers!

• All current positive perks in-game can now go up to their next rank when attempting to create them (for example Aftershock can now go to rank 4)

If you'd like to see other bits and bobs let me know and I'll see what I can find, I do want to mention that the Wiki guys are working on the new perk calculator to encompass the new ancient gizmo slot, you can try it out here by ticking the box for it and messing around.

Finally I have a dedicated Archaeology Discord server which now has over 4,000 members in it all talking about the skill! If you want to join click this!
