Very excited to try the new map coming to #ARCRaiders and by recent scout reports it looks to be a banger of a map! Once they are done with the new map, I&#39;m hoping for an ambitious update to loot and gear. It needs to feel more &quot;special&quot; to loot, to find cool and unique gear. Why not &quot;sets&quot; granting special abilities? Or rad attachments? Basically we need moaaaar of everything, kinda... https://arcraiders.com/news/riven-tides-map-scout-report

@nopatience@swecyb.com 💯 Maps and skins and new enemies and new weapons are cool, but we need more "balance" changes. Survivor and Looting mkII are the only augments I ever use. Heavy shield is never used except by noobs experimenting. This could easily come in the form of Tier V weapons/Tier IV augments if they don't want to make breaking changes. I don't anticpate any radical system changes like a talent for "use two augments at the same time" or anything drastic like that. But speaking Talents, the whole tree kind of needs to be rebalanced, no? There are a whole bunch of critical ones, a lot of decent ones, and the whole thing is locked behind a bunch of "okay whatever" or downright garbage ones. BRB going to post this thesis in the Reddit megathread 😂
