That I really hope gets answered before October 16th...
Are new items, such as weapons and armors, going to be locked as rewards for Arcade mode? There's been slight hints as to such, and it will make or break purchasing Marching Fire for me. Therefore, I'd like to know ahead of time so that I have time to pre-order since I might purchase it anyway.
So far I've only heard mention of an exclusive ornament and an effect being locked behind Arcade. It would be a strange decision by Ubi to lock weapon and armour cosmetics behind a payed DLC as they've never done that before. And considering how much the community has been wanting new armours it would go down pretty badly if new armours were locked behind a pay wall.
They have confirmed this over the last couple of warriors dens, there will be exclusive rewards weapons and armor you can only get from arcade mode. If i remember correctly the devs said this in the den where they are talking about the tier difficulties for arcade mode. I think it will be worth it, as long as those weapons and armor from arcade look sick.
