A change was added to the Catch the Wind event affecting some Battle-Pass related Microtransactions. This allows players who have purchased Gnostic Hymn to get Gnostic Chorus at a lower price. Whereas before you might have needed to spend 30 dollars, you'll now only have to spend 20 in total to get both special packs.

Which Weapon Should You Pick?
Given that you can only choose one of the above 5 weapons, you're going to have to make a somewhat difficult decision. What you choose will ultimately come down to what characters and weapons you already own, but if you need more guidance we've put together a guide to help you decide which weapon to pick!

The Elemental Crucible event also brought with it 3 new Battle Pass missions. These missions expire along with the Catch the Wind event, so you'll have until November 10th to complete them. These 3 missions alone can give you almost 5000 BEP, so we recommend prioritizing this to try to get to level 30 as fast as possible!
