New expedition
These new missions will be carried out in the undeveloped area of Enoch, including the ancient Pax ruins and the interior of the active volcano. These new missions are Molten Abyss, Nomadic City, Marshall Complex and Source.
According to the developers, they hope to provide players with a new playground to test upcoming equipment and character changes.
Transmogrification system
The upcoming “Outriders” transmog system will be very simple. Players can apply any skin they want on any suitable item without paying any fees. No in-game currency or micro-transactions are involved.
Players can freely change equipment skins as long as they obtain past items, similar to the transmog system in “Diablo 3”.
Tiago’s store reworked
In order to make loot farming less boring, Thiago’s shop has received two new features: players will be able to relaunch his inventory of legendary items, and mysterious legendary items will be sold.
Legendary loot and expedition changes
First of all, the Eye of the Storm mission will now have a pick and drop system, which includes two pieces of armor and one weapon. Players can only choose one of these three pieces of equipment.
Second, with the expedition timer removed, players will now receive rewards based on the expedition itself. Compared with a shorter time, those with a longer basic clearance time will get better rewards. However, no matter what the expedition is completed, the challenge level will still play an important role in the quality of the reward.
Finally, paid expeditions (paid for using Drop Pod resources) will provide better rewards than “free” expeditions. This will motivate players to risk using their resources in exchange for better loot.
