Paloverde zfogshooterz 706 Posted August 24, 2019 (edited) In-case anyone's curious, the content for DD2's next update has been revealed from last devstream! Here's the recap - Prime Incursions! Beefed up Incursion that scales from Chaos 8 and Beyond! The rewards are awesome swanky brand new weapon models with C8 stats and.....also the chance to have C8 ampoules dropping! There will be 6 groups of incursion with 3 or less incursion per group and each group completed will award a......Hyper Shard! You can now have two of the same hyper shard now, No longer exclusive to Mastery. First two groups will be unlocked when the update hits. Subsequent weeks will unlock only ONE Incursion per week to stretch content till DDA beta. After completing the groups, at the very end there will be a surprise....and also the final hypershard..... And don't worry, there isn't any kind of race of any sort! Also, Chaos 8 shards will be purchasable from the Gran'Master! AND.....It's releasing this coming WEDNESDAY! Also a fun stuff to know! Mark finally have a handle - Markarita! Because he's salty on the edges but he's very sweet. So for the question from me to CG now would be since I heard that there would be dope artwork with "pop-ups and panels and stuff"s, will there be a Brand-New logo for DD2 too for this next post drakenfrost era? Have a good one, and cheers! :) Edited August 25, 2019 by Paloverde zfogshooterz 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrPeterPFL 49 Posted August 24, 2019 Is it a new HyperShard or the ones from Mastery? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dadogy 4 Posted August 24, 2019 Its a second copy of the mastery shards so you can have 2 mass destruction, vicious strikes etc. You can only earn one new copy of each though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, what Dadogy said, a second copy of Mastery's Hyper Shards. I've edited my original post to add this point.

So far, no mention of that in the devstream but like gcstephen13, I doubt it too. Edited August 27, 2019 by Paloverde zfogshooterz 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Little Magic Hat 130 Posted August 27, 2019 I didn't realise they did one. Pity it wasn't edited with sections like they used to do. Anyway, I don't recall then mentioning whether they figured out us getting the opportunity to create water + shocking rev items again, petrify aggro, or when we're getting the poison servo icon. I bought that new initiate costume a while back. I hope those of us who already got it get her proper hero card and maybe some custom clothing choices... Her white hands look more like the texture is missing... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oliwaltony 12 Posted August 27, 2019 All that sounds awesome :D can't wait to try these out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Paloverde zfogshooterz 706 Posted August 28, 2019 I'm just going to add that I'm might not be exactly sure about the content schedule - It could either be: Every week a new incursion gets released from it's respective prime pool. or Every week a Prime Incursion Pool get released. We'll see which schedule will be used when the patch notes hits. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jaws_420 1,016 Posted August 28, 2019 (edited) I really hope that the new incursions do not require like 50 resets in order to be strong enough to play them. I'm about as strong as you can get without resets, so that will be a good test. I just don't have it in me to do resets. I'm super excited for any new content. Been quite a drought and i am so DD2 bored... Edited August 28, 2019 by Jaws_420 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hopefully in the subsequent patch. It definitely would be nice if they get resolved! On 8/28/2019 at 12:05 AM, Little Magic Hat said: I bought that new initiate costume a while back.

Yeah, I just checked her, looks like the initiate costume prior to this patch was unfinished. Her costume now looks way better (and finished) now!

Paloverde zfogshooterz 706 Posted August 29, 2019 And....just in case anyone is curious, I found an image showing the old version so here's a comparison between pre-update and post-update Ascended Initiate - (Pre-version is on the left while Post-version is right.) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
