Series Rewards

They should be totally added for wolfmarks and crystal trophies some day?... Even if it's a high amount, since these currencies need sinks to encourage people to PVP.

Personally as somebody who earned them all in every pass as they happened, I don't want to take any claim of deserving exclusivity in perpetuity, since gaining them was merely a grind and not skill. It's not like the Feast or Ranked CC rewards where I don't mind since the players (hopefully) deserve to keep that exclusivity. besides which; It would be nice to be able to obtain them on any potential future alts, especially the emotes and framer kit stuff. (also, i threw out a helmet by accident, which means I have glamour dresser slots I could be saving with the new set system... which I can't since these rewards can't even be reclaimed. :< )

Sorry for the tangent, felt inspired to talk about it since you mentioned it.

So, aside from Commendation Crystals, Ranked CC really has nothing unique to itself except the occasional portrait element, so it is sort of whatever.

Feast though, I have been thinking often about it and I (as someone who does own one of the sets) think it would be completely okay to rerelease Replica sets of the old Feast rewards. "Replica" being literally in the name that is and maybe making the original pieces gain a different item quality (could be Purple like relics for example) and "maybe" some sort of glow to it - that way new players could enjoy the base design of the gear sets while original owners get to keep what is special to their set.

Though if I had to say price balancing... I think we need a higher Trophy Crystal cap. Those sets "are" fairly high quality and I think a ballpark of 25000-30000 for a full set would be appropriate, given the nature of their origin.

Or alternatively - Ranked currency! Think Overwatch 2's competitive points to buy glowing/metallic weapons and are obtained for each win (small amounts) and at season end (amount relative to highest skill tier obtained).

This wont help the absolute desolation that is the Trophy Crystal shop not having a decent Trophy Crystal sink, but it WOULD make the old Feast items available to everyone at a reasonable rate without making them exclusive AND promote ranked even for metal ranks better.

I've always been baffled by the pvp reward system. Ultimates, which are much more hyped up by both the devs and the community, still have all their rewards available for those willing to put in the work to get them. Sure some might be easier or harder, due to level sync weirdness and job changes, but at the end of the day, there's nothing stopping a motivated player from getting those rewards. The same should be true for pvp rewards.

It's so strange that pvp follows the FOMO model, when it's so at odds with literally the rest of the entire game's reward structure. I'm not saying they have to be easy to get, they can make them cost a ton of wolf collars if they really want them to be a grind/hard to get, but the bottom line is that they SHOULD be available as a goal to work towards for those willing to put in the effort

I always felt SE was countering FOMO with PvP rewards through the simple expedient of making them all crap.

I'm looking forward to the pvp rewards coming back too. I missed out on the Archfiend set and have been wanting it for awhile. I'm glad they brought back the FFV and Yo'Kai events, but this set is literally the last thing I want. However, I wouldn't be opposed to them bringing back the feasts mounts too as I'm a avid mount collector lol :p

Maybe one day my trophy crystal will be usefull for something cool.
Series 7 rewards are bad.
