Season 3 - The Iron River Syndicate

Battle Pass S3 launches at 00:00 as S2 comes to an end.

An introduction to the first faction with the relevant themed Crest, Frame, Pet & Gear. Remember, we're launching The Menagerie & Vigilante rework along side it, these are part of the Phase 1 releases we had planned with much more of Phase 1 and the Faction system coming later during this Battle Pass season - we're still working hard on it and we're getting close to the P1 finishing line.

Vigilante Progress - is preserved. In-fact, your current Vigilantes move over with slightly increased stat budgets too.
Fragment Overflow - is now viewable in the current Vigilante panel for transparency, the same number of fragments will be convertible as Shards. (Fragments renamed to Shards). You pick where you want to assign them with the new system. Free reign. This relates to those users with 5 Star Vigilantes with overflowing fragments. If you're 3 star with progress to 4, that progress remains carried over directly on that Vigilante.
Vigilante Roster - is now extended to 95 Vigilantes between Common through to Legendary. You can only equip 5 Vigilantes at once - you can equip any 5. That can be mixed across multiple Factions or equipping the same Faction for all 5 slots - your roster; your call.
Vigilante Store - will also be updated, you'll be able to purchase Shards with Mafia Gold & Platinum as before - you'll be able to purchase random Shards that assign to any faction at random or you can invest a little extra to get dedicated Shards for the Faction of your choice.

Battle Pass - New Items

We're introducing the below items:

• Gunsmith's Tool Belt (Epic)
• Gunsmith's Welding Mask (Epic)
• Firecracker Vine Chain (Epic)
• Iron River's Crash (Legendary)

The stats on these given items are slightly improved compared to the current Epic/Legendary pool - in line with an item rework update coming soon - where we'll be adjusting stat budgets across the item pool and introducing new rarities, this will give you clear vision for longevity and re-instates grind towards gaining new gear. Some items may sit higher in a single stat compared to another if they're faction assigned - this is where build customisation is going to start to come into play, we have many more elements landing along with this to support. Near enough all adjustments are increases to stat budgets - you'll likely gain a little more & you can start to plan your path towards becoming stronger with a ton of exclusives also arriving within the new Career system. More to come on that front later though.

We'll also be including Bombardier Beetle Larva in the new battle pass - a Legendary Pet for the new Menagerie system. Previously tested consumable Pre-Workout also makes a return.
You can choose to showcase 1 pet via your profile upon release so long as you obtain it first - that's the new feature for the slot that shows locked currently.

Reminder that as planned, the Arena lands back at your disposal also at 00:00.

We have also took some additional steps today to try and improve GPU usage across the game and we're continuing to monitor where improvements are necessary as reports land - keep them coming if your game is struggling in any aspect with a detailed Support ticket.
