Battlegrounds Blade Piece Solution
With how much strife the decision to lock the final SF Blade piece behind significant BG progression is causing, I wanted to offer a solution, or better understand why this solution wasn’t the original design.
Similar to the tasks that rotate every 48 hours that reward small chunks of essentia for winning BG matches, why not launch a timegated one to win 10 or whatever matches rewarding the Blade piece as a second route to acquisition to calm the storm?
That way there is progress every player can make towards it, still tied to BG engagement, but without the backsliding or frustration that comes with climbing the tiers.
I feel like this might have already been discussed, as the ideal place to me for this blade piece to have lived was in the “Battleground Beat Down” event - it rewards participation (which even could have reduced to justify the piece grind) and rewards winning more.
Not aware if there has been any commentary on why they didn’t put it here.
