ZeftheWicked.3076 Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 I did some Whisper of Jormag attempts y-day (failed) and some today (succeeded) and i must say it was fun! This is a fun, challenging content! That being said rewards are kinda generic - well nothing close to Price of the Boneskinner Skin that looks plain sick! So here's the idea: Why not make Strike mission specific set of cosmetics that are rewarded based on your performance? One skin for clearing the mission. Additional one (2nd part of set) for clearing it with silver grade Final one for clearing it with gold mark. If that's too harsh for not so hardcore players, you can have instead tokens drop after a mission, with higher graded completes dropping much more coins, but eventually letting every one get the full set, be it via perserverance, or focused effort on faster clears. I don't think many would take issue with amazing skins such as Price of the Boneskinner becoming permanent addition to Strike Missions and a motivation to replay them and improve.

The strikes now drop exclusive weapon skins. The number of rolls you get are dependant on how you perform, gold 3 rolls, silver 2 ect I dont know what more you are asking for.... but feel free to continue the armchair dev'ing.

Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 There are a couple of others, but the Episode is so new, the Wiki hasn't been updated that much. Also, it seems perfectly grammar-correct to say 'skins' when referring to multiple instances of play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That skin and the other boneskinner weapons is entirely Mystic Forge. Yet again, they release another strike mission with no actual unique rewards.

Really? How do you know that? Do you have the recipe? Did you acquire it that way? Did everyone that acquired one get it there? If so, why haven't you updated the Wiki?

Ayrilana.1396 Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 Someone also claimed to have gotten a scepter from the strike. There’s also apparently a focus according to their post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayrilana.1396 Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 That’s worth finding out as to whether they drop from the bouncy chests or the mastery chests. I assume the former to incentivize performing well in the strike mission. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the thing: updating the wiki is nobody's responsibility. It's totally filled with information players updated out of their own free will. If you don't want to update the wiki that's your (valid) choice, but it would still be nice to know on what information you base your statement that the missions have no unique rewards and the weapons come out of the mystic forge instead.

If you don't want to update the wiki that's your (valid) choice, but it would still be nice to know on what information you base your statement that the missions have no unique rewards and the weapons come out of the mystic forge instead. The fact that the staff has a mystic forge recipe and that the devs said they will be adding unique rewards to the strike missions. That is to say there are none now.
