You didn't listen did you ? Missed points carry over to next week and increase your cap basically, you won't be left behind.
All we know so far is it is designed to replace the tome system with something different where, rather than mainly doing roulettes for tomes for gear, there is going to be a list of weekly tasks that award points that span a variety of content. I would suspect the list of tasks and points awarded is going to far far outweigh what you need to cap for the week and not all tasks are going to be combat related. Just in the preview list they showed collectables for both gatherers and crafters, completing FATEs and Gates, fishing voyage etc. They want to get people out and doing other things but still allow them to progress gear and, as has been said, they are looking to add a system where you can go back 1 week and get anything you missed.
It's an upgrade to the current system in every possible way:
- You aren't restricted to just Expert Roulette or Hunt Trains. Now, it will be like the mogtome system, which it's now clear was a test run.
- If you miss a day's roulettes, it's fine because it's a weekly system now and you won't be stuck getting less due to having already done Expert for the day.
- If you miss a week, you'll be able to catch up for the last week too.
- Probably means no armory chest or currency/totem maintanenace anymore. Just simply unlock system.
- Share item level to lower item level jobs, so you only ever have to gear 1 job and you're done.
It's much nicer than the current method which demands a daily login and chains you to roulettes. You can do anytime during the week that suits and pick and choose what to do, and they mentioned letting us catch up on the previous week once we cap the current one too. Much nicer.
The new system seems arguably worst. Currently u can log in once a day for less than a whole week and cap with a daily roulette. Now, you get a list of chores that you can only complete once a week. In the picture we saw, it seemingly had a weekly point cap of 3,000 (this remains to be seen. not 100% confirmed) and each chore grants a minimum of 50 points with a few being 100+. Since they mentioned this is weekly then it likely means that u cant complete the same chore more than once a week. So you are stuck with a long laundry list of things to do rather than just doing your daily roulette.
Additionally it seems that they added rewards to the track such as mounts and emotes which means if u miss the window to get these items or cant sub for a while, they are gone for good. Some people are ASSUMING theyll bring those items back in some capacity but it hasnt been confirmed. So its a battlepass with potentially more work, with fomo and seemingly done to help keep sub and active player numbers up due to the sharp drop in active players from the luckybancho census data.
Oddly, this is the type of system I've been advocating for - sort've - for the current expansion relic steps. ;/ I wish they'd patch that.
I don't think anyone was necessarily angry, it was just clear you had no idea what you were talking about, which you admitted to not watching the live stream, so didn't have the details.
As some feedback, I would suggest doing some research before you start complaining about something you do not know about, or even try not to make your title so hostile. If it was approached in a more inquisitive way, like: 'I haven't had a chance to watch the keynote but have heard they want to introduce a battle pass, could someone provide some more information about what they are wanting to do?'
We are now starting off in a less hostile situation and it opens up the discussion to inform you of what you wanted to know.
They mentioned certain actions you can actually complete more than once a week. And you can even see it in the screenshot they showed us.
As for your second point I don't much like the fomo aspect but a lot of people were actually whining that lack of fomo meant they just never felt any need to log on, *lookin at certain content creators*. We could also assume season cosmetics could be obtainable later, similar to pvp. Although I hope both pvp and pve stuff returns much sooner.
If the pass ends up with too few activities for us to choose from or some things give too few points for their effort hopefully feedback sees them make improvements. But I'm glad to see a future where I don't have to spend 2.5hours on roulettes multiple days a week if I wanna cap tomes. Cause that is horrific.
You can do hunts too if ur goal is to minimize time wasted which if thats ur goal, u might take more time now cause I dont know if hunts will contribute to that anymore. Can you point me towards where u got the impression that each individual missions are complete-able more than once a week? I dont see it.
