Summary:

• Tier 2 Side/Upgrade Cost Reductions
  

As always, everything below is subject to change prior to hitting Live and some things included below may never make it to Live release.

Tier 2 Side/Upgrade Cost Reductions

The PTS update was quite small in file size, mainly to make adjustments to Tier 2 side/upgrade costs. There’s no other visible change besides perhaps some further Hammerknell Instant Adventure adjustments.

Tier 2 Store

Tier 2 Store-bought gear has had its epic side-grade costs reduced to only require a single amender. This amender is no longer the relic (highest-tier) version, but has been lowered to the second-highest-tier (Tormenting).

Tier 2 Store Gear Upgrade Cost Reduction

Tier 2 HK-drops

Return to Hammerknell-dropped gear has also had a cost reduction to its upgrade paths.

Tier 2 HK Drop First Upgrade Cost Reduction

Again, only one amender required now and it is no longer the relic amender.

Note that Relic upgrades/sidegrades remain unchanged.

Very brief update this time round. We’ll probably see some of the new dimension items/keys that Morticus has been working on for 3.3 on the PTS in the coming weeks though as well as Tarken Glacier IAs also slated for 3.3.
