Feature Pack Q&A

Custom arena only allow progress for 25% of the reward track, this restriction does not apply to team/solo arena.
Rewards are level specific to the character opening that reward.

Meta shifting in PvP

Celestial amulet opened up a lot of builds in PvP
Hambow received mixed opinions, not the faceroll it used to be
Lots of people interested in Courtyard map, could become a sanctioned gamemode if there is enough interest.

So much for pvp players getting their legendaries through pvp. Have fun with your t1 crafting mats!
- nononsense
  
  You can buy tomes to increase your level even if you only play pvp IIRC

    Do you mean the PvP Rank not level, because I opened a chest with a level 80 character and still got t1 mats.

      The mats tier i believe it’s mainly decided from the tier of the reward track…as you see even the crafting mats get up of “level” as you go on with the track.
      I think it was meant more towards equips etc.

i wish they would have done something a bit more for the cow finisher though dropping a cow on someone is priceless. ~my No.1 finisher~

Why didn’t they put this one in the gem store, I would buy this one.

“Custom arena only allow progress for 25% of the reward track.”

Is it 25% of a track per day?
- Potato
  
  You can only do 25% on your reward track in a normal match, however if you do tournaments you can do the full reward track

Strange..I did like 18 of the 40 steps for the Balthazar backpack without every joining a tournament etc xD…and i think that most of them were custom arenas (since they all were for 8-10 ppl)
