Other than the following things, what can console players expect from the next DLC/patch?
1. aggressive money-making tactics from the crown store. It appears that the race change (3,000) and name change (3,500) features cost more than the largest of DLCs. None of the hyped up new hairstyles in the PTS are available to purchase this month, but you can get all the boring old ones in a bundle for 1,000 crowns. See what they did there? Surely it's for a good cause.
2. A set that grants a godly amount of weapon damage (100k, to be exact).
3. A sort of all around DPS stealth nerf on certain builds that makes stat modifying sets give us bonuses in a multiplicative rather than additive way.
4. A quick way to farm the most sought after motifs: create a group of level 10 players and breeze through it over and over again.
5. A new semi-P2W exploit where you can buy enough race changes (with real money) in a way that allows you to keep all the previous passives so you have a magnanimous character with stacked racial passives.
6. Writs are now requiring more vet16 tier mats and are returning unequal rewards, making them a gold-sink to do.
7. No new area to explore in the DLC. Just two new dungeons. All you're really getting from the DLC is two new dungeons. Everything else comes from the base game changes.
8. There were some performance changes, but there still needs to be more work done.
Am I missing anything?

✭Can I add that the scales are still tipped over towards the stamina-based characters in terms of class balance?1 -

✭Do we get new personalities? The drunken one?I like sweetrolls and I cannot lie0 -
bunnytrix✭✭✭✭Don't forget it also brings a grouping system that is more broken than at any other time in the game' s existence.
You can't form groups, you can't join groups.
And if you really want to be frustrated and upset, join the dungeon finder and wait forever and still no group will form.
And all of this in a group oriented DLC.

✭✭It's a bit much to complain about the cost of race change and then complain it's P2W
