Yay!!! I just bought suicides recently and was starting to see the pain of having to take them off for certain content. Looks like my pain will be cut short

Launching right after my last season participating in AW!

Had to double check if what I was reading was real

Arrives on April 1st huh. This isn’t some cruel joke, right?? ☹️

Now we live in Arena with recoils to max 😎
(Effortlessly)

Costs 35 units each time you switch 💀

Seeing as this releases April 1st, can you confirm whether this is an April Fools Joke or not 👀

Josh2507

So there’s a 35 unit cost to switch each time. Not ideal, but whatever.

Do we need to pay to unlock each slot like in battlegrounds?

If it is an April fools joke, there would be an uproar

Half of it would be from me

my playstyle doesn't care about this .. i run one loadout. i use to remove dex in war back in the day when it was necessary on a node or two but i don't even do that now with the new champs out lol

good for the suiciders though.

So new masteries are still not coming? Just the loadouts this time right?

Rayven5220

This is freaking awesome!

35 units costs is garbage i would prefer choice between 35 units and gold cost of around 100k each time you want to change loadout that would have been a better idea

It's way cheaper than changing them 1 by 1

35 units is cheaper than it is right now to reset masteries (unless you have a bad mastery setup). This is objectively a win.

I mean you could always not use them and pay over 100 units every time?

Seriously...

Nope. There is no cost to the loadouts. You get three right away and can choose one as your AW Defense Mastery loadout.

Nope. There is no cost to the loadouts. You get three right away and can choose one as your AW Defense Mastery loadout.

And will the masteries from that AW loadout apply to our defense when matchmaking starts, or will it apply the loadout we currently have, say Arena masteries?

Finally.

_Pez_

I get the cost for excessive changing of masteries, but still would have liked a system like the initial relic swapping plan where you get 3 changes a month for free or something and then a cost afterwards.

Maybe an idea could be to give sigil holders reduced cost? (I appreciate the cost is cheaper than the current cost)

ShashankGupta

@Kabam Miike pls clarify this like for example In my loadout 3 I run 2 points in deep wounds and just after sometime I want to add 3 more points in the deep wounds mastery will the units cost of 8 and 10 or whatever will it still be there or it is free?

I am asking about this

IKON

I can run suicides for arena and not compromise my AW defense?

What a great freakin day!

Crys23

I would've liked a dedicated Arena loadout, like for AW defense. Think we could get that in the future?

You'll have 3 loadouts, use 1 for arena grinding

That's what I'm saying! My current AW defenders aren't Mystic, so I can ditch 4/5 in that and max Limber, then go full on suicides for arena, keep my MD/Inequity build for BGs, then do a little hodge podge for my everyday questing/AQ/AW attack.

If implemented well, this is great.

Okay, so let’s say I have these as my three loadouts:

Loadout 1: Standard, day to day questing
Loadout 2: AW Defense
Loadout 3: Recoil loadout

If I come up against a matchup that requires me to turn off dexterity or crank up collar tech or something, will I be able to manually do that without overwriting one of my existing loadouts? Like, would I just use the currently existing system and costs for that and when I’m done be able to spend the 35 units to jump right back to one of my saved three?

Amazing question. I was just thinking this but didn't know how to phrase it lol
