About Rift Pass 85-200

Hello friends, I'm sure you all loved the Rift content in the 21st book. I also loved this pass content.

However, there’s a catch. As you know, the Rift Pass content ends at level 85. Levels 85 to 200 consist solely of 5,000 Bloodpoints. I believe that instead of Bloodpoints, there should be Shards that players can use to purchase characters, save up for costumes, or use in the Shrine of Secrets. My reasoning for this is that there’s a lack of rewarding content between levels 85 and 200. I know Behaviour has been quite generous, but I truly think they need to fill this level range with more meaningful rewards.

I think there should be 75 or 100 Shards instead of 5,000 Bloodpoints in the level range of 85 to 200.

What do you all think?"

    I would gladly swap the 5k bloodpoints for Iri Shards, even if it was a small number like 50, though I would prefer 100. BHVR is far too stingy with Iri Shards, even when they do giveaways it's usually piddly numbers like 200 to 500.

    Most of us would love iri shards. I know I would.

    But the extra Rift levels with Bloodpoints aren't meant to be meaningful. Players were complaining because BHVR would give out free Rift fragments and the dedicated players were already done with the Rift and so they received literally nothing. The extra levels were added so that dedicated players receive something. 5k Bloodpoints is practically nothing, but it's not literally nothing.

    The devs probably chose to end at 200 levels because it's high enough that very few reach it. Players aren't supposed to reach the end. If something meaningful is added to levels 85-200, then players are going to want to earn those things, they're going to want to finish the entire Rift. Which will lead to complaints that it's too hard to earn Rift Fragments, BHVR needs to give out more Rift fragments, and then if people starting reaching the end of the Rift we're back to the original complaint that they receive literally nothing after they reach the end…

    I'd love iri shards, but I understand why the reward is 5k Bloodpoints.

    I personally don't find 5K BP to be any kind of incentive at all. It's so little it may not even exist.

    However, if every 4th or 5th node was something like 200 Iri shards, well that's a medium-term goal to aim for, but it's not FOMO because you earn the same just from playing and leveling up anyway.

    Hell they could probably still get away with making every 10th or 15th node another 25 auric cells. That's still not going to add up to a single cosmetic peice, but it would be a great incentive.

    I don't particularly have any issue with that, at least I am passively getting 5k BP when I will be playing anyway. I am a sucker for the cosmetics for 'free' so I only really care up to the last actual tier anyway. The rest is just whatever to me
