Dauntless Is Changing How Cosmetics Will Rotate By Introducing Reward Cache And Slayers Club.
MMOBEEP has found out that Dauntless is improving how they give items via seasonal passes to players. Rather than the traditional “vault” format, whereby players would pick from a small range of decorative objects in a rotating system, the new reward cache won’t be rotated at all. The Vault itself is being removed.
“The Reward Cache holds all kinds of cool rewards – past season items like the Vault has held, new items you’ve never seen before, transmogs, emotes, dyes, consumables, keys, tokens – all the stuff you want. New items will be added to the Cache throughout each Season. They won’t rotate out like in the Vault right now. Instead, the items will build up over a few months before rotating out to start a new Season. (You can think of a Season as about 2 Hunt Passes long. Each Escalation cycle was a “Season”).”
There are a few signs here. First, Phoenix Labs states that players won’t immediately grind out the brand new rewards; it’ll take longer than before. If you want it to go faster, the company recommends joining the paid Slayers Club, which is primarily a temporary subscription that gives multiple buffs, consisting of double currency.
The changeover will happen in April, at which point seasonal vault coins will be “converted into the seasonal currency usable in the next season’s Reward Cache” – and you’ll want to use those before July.
“Joining the Slayers Club is not required to access any part of the game, reach any milestone, or overcome any content,” the studio says. “It’s just a way to get where you’re going a little faster.” Hunt passes, and elite hunt passes will also continue to exist.
