What an insanely bad joke

[Unknown Traveller]

Just look at this:

Boons/curses are randomized. For rewards, there are 25 available - weekly expeditions released on 22nd May, with the first reward extended as we implemented them midweek. So they have now looped round again, which is intended.

edit- I was incorrect regarding boons/curses being randomized. I was informed today that they are also repeating. Apologies for the misinformation!

I've discussed this further with the team and confirmed that the boons/curses will repeat, along with the rewards.

This means that:

1. I have to wait over twenty weeks for the «Drakefire Pistols of Bitter Dreams» weapon illusion to become available again:
   
   
2. My future is already predetermined. There will be a guaranteed combination of the curses «Ranald's Sparkig Gift» and «(Critically) Unstable Breed» together!
   
   
3. «Khaine's Fury» boon, which takes away 50% of health, is guaranteed too.
   
   
4. And of course there will be an Expedition to the Citadel of Eternity again. The Chaos Wastes maps consist mainly of cliffs, rocks and chasms, and the Citadel of Eternity of small platforms and stairs.
   
   
5. Under the influence of Nurgle, of course, again.
   
   
6. Bots, of course, will not be fixed — and will remain as they are now, when they are simply not programmed to interact with these curses at all.

If there's the most BAD thing in Vermintide 2, this is it.

We're all doomed, doomed of course, I tell ya!

CW mode has been unfun/broken since FS released that cursed grudge update. Not sure why would anyone play or enjoy it.

Because its different from the main game's loop and brings something unique to the each run.

That wasn't an issue on release at all. Actually, it was really fun back then.
But FS did their usual thing and sucked all the enjoyment from the mode.
But I guess, if you love dozens of goatmen banners spawning on your head the same time, it's been made just for you.

At first CW was too unbalanced. Getting lightning for crits or dupe on ult with no CD was autowin.

It was fun to mess around, getting stupidly OP boons and snowballing like crazy.
Now it's a chore nobody asked for.
I do not try to find logic in FS actions, but I do know that FS hates fun with burning passion.

Just do it on veteran

Thank you Captain Obvious *sarcasm*.

In reality, the difficulty no matter; uncontrollable random explosions everywhere will almost certainly throw you into the abyss. It all ends like this:

Or like this.

I tried a lot, got nothing and only ruined my health, because the constant AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! of kamikaze rats and boom-boom-boom[/b] for many hours in a row is psychological mental torture.

I died to an explosion yesterday that launched me like 30 foot off the map rather than having me grab ledge like if anything else knocks you off. Immediately exited that mode, not worth playing

Will share my latest reply in that thread here too.

Does this mean I have to wait 20 weeks to get a chance at white Drakefire Pistols again and the curses are GUARANTEED to be Ranald's Sparkig Gift + Critically Unstable Breed?

Fathshark, you do realize that this is impossible, especially in the Citadel of Eternity, I spent many hours trying and seriously damaged my health, but I couldn't get anything!

Currently, yes. However, I've mentioned this to the team and I've been told that the plan is to do a balance pass on problematic boons/curses. Though we're also exploring the option of repeating rewards and shuffling boons/curses - though I can't make any guarantees just yet!

Why not make a unique currency for Chaos Wastes as well that is on a time-exclusive event that logs your hours?

For real though, everybody gets the skins on the lowest difficulties or comfort difficulties the skins anyways and tries to speedrun it, honestly proves nothing. Just add a shop that factors in remaining coins after an expedition up to a cap so players don't mass save & potentially ruin their and others runs. Possibly provide players if you play X character you get X skin related to them on a rotation for that week that way it's not all too saturated.

I was really surprised how difficult ranalds Gift+Bomberrats on citadel expedition even on Veteran can be :D.

Anyway guys, im glad that it cycles. No more new skins that i feel pressured to get like a donkey running after a carrot on a stick.

Thx. I added this to my endless "Hopes and Expectations" list, along with the promises about fixing bots and «Solo Mode» for Darktide.

ranalds Gift+Bomberrats was made by a human?
Satana is a big fan of this guy

[NeloDante]

We're doomed ineed. I hope we get some changes regarding that...
