I don't know about you guys, but I'm hyped for Tuesday! Got around 46k steel saved up and 11 crates! Centurion and Shinobi are going to be geared up!

A question:

1.- For the new gear cap, at what prestige level do you start getting the new gear? Is it 5? 6? 10?

I believe in the diagram on the livestream it was 5.

I have a baad feeling about this new season ...when the patch hits like last time we are gonna have 7h outage. mark my words this will happen

Ah, interesting, so to maximise crates (as in all gold pieces) for my peacekeeper I need a rep and a few levels lol, though by that time I might have the gear I need anyhow and just be looking for guaranteed gold just for mixup options and salvage. New gear leads to a question for me, I am definitely levelling my epic gear and with the balance, it makes more sense to level grey gear, but is there any point for the two in between?

All good, it releases at like 10pm or some bs my time so they can take it down for 13 -14 hours if they like (I don't do mornings).

I'm glad my PK is in the Gold only zone, should make the change to the new system relatively quick and painless. Trying to get both my Nobushi and Warden to 5, but they are both just short of 4 at the moment so quite a way to go there.

As for the levelling gear part, I never once levelled anything until purple, I preferred instead to level the character and get progressively better items from crates and drops. That might explain why I have over 60,000 salvage for the Knights alone, lol. I think with the new system, I will only level Gold.

I had intended to leave my pk at 5 and get my zerker to 3 but with the gear changes I have been collecting purples and next thing I know she is nearly 6 lol. I will be seeing how interesting shinobi is to me, he and the zerker will get to 5 eventually, though it is the peacekeeper I will keep levelling for whatever comes after gold if something does next season lol. The first week I am going to play almost exclusively shinobi while only season pass holders have him so I can learn the move set.

Gray already gave you the answer, but if you're looking for more details you can read the full writeup here. (it has everything from Damien's slidedeck on the stream but without the fun :>)
