Future 2’s new Episodes have an…fascinating construction. There are three Acts in roughly six weeks blocks, ending seasonal story content material after three weeks, then selecting it up once more three weeks later.
It’s extra content material than a season, although longer than a season, but it surely comes with new types of timegating we haven’t actually seen earlier than. I believed I’d make an inventory of all the foremost issues from Echoes we now have to attend for, and when:
Daybreak Weapons – There are two extra, so presumably we’re solely getting one in every Act:
- Good Paradox (Kinetic Shotgun)
- Martyr’s Retribution (Photo voltaic Wave Body Grenade Launcher)
Echoes Weapons – Now there are 4 extra, so two per Act. This brings the entire as much as ten, which is certainly greater than we get for seasonal weapons usually, although we now have to attend for the remainder.
- Corrasion (Arc Pulse Rife)
- Chronophage (Void Hint Rifle)
- Speleologist (Photo voltaic Machine Gun)
- Aberrant Motion (Photo voltaic Rocket Sidearm)
Unknown Unique (Quest later) – We all know there may be some kind of unique quest coming later within the season. Twin Future was a Remaining Form exercise, not Echoes.
100 Season Go Ranges – The season cross is now 200 ranges, with 50 extra ranges added per Act, but it surely’s very, very arduous to go previous 100 proper now to assert rewards later, as XP acquire is closely nerfed when you hit 100. Essentially the most useful objects up to now are:
- Crimson Dying Catalyst (Season Go 150)
- All-Class Helmet Decoration (Season Go 200)
- Some thriller squares.
10 New Artifact Mods – I consider it’s confirmed that we’re getting a brand new row of Artifact Mods per season. Given how sturdy later-column mods could be, this may occasionally show to actually change construct potentialities round.
New “Actions” – This isn’t simply new story quests, which it additionally says and we all know are coming, however new Actions typically, which makes me assume that at most, we could get a second main exercise to affix Breach Executable. At worst, it could be one other timed map for Enigma Protocol. The latter is my guess, however I hope it’s one thing important. Proper now, Breach Executable is one map with three boss rooms, and Enigma is only one map. Looks as if there’s undoubtedly room for extra given the scope of previous seasonal actions.
There’s extra most likely, however I consider that’s all the foremost stuff. I assume the query is now, would you somewhat have all this up entrance with much more lifeless time on the finish of the season, or are you okay with it being unfold out like this? Let me know on Twitter.
