It would be great to hear everyone’s opinions on the new features in the patch!

Let’s try to categorize them, like #Ranger and #Gauntlet.

I’ll start.

#RangerWeapons

This is a cool new feature—awesome to see it implemented so quickly in an alpha state for us to test! I'm super excited to try out all the different composite synergies we can build.

I think it would be beneficial to have Ranger Weapons appear as Stage 2 in the shop (with 1 composite synergy), and then, when you find three copies, they evolve into Stage 3 (with 2 composite synergies).

Currently, finding 9 copies of weapons feels a bit too much and feels maybe too far from the familiar gameplay style in TFT, in my opinion.
It also lowers the usefulness of Tier 0 weapons, which only have 2 basic synergies, as all other Stage 1 items also have 2 basic synergies.

Rolling for Weapons/Suits is a great new feature, but it might be a bit much to use the 9x Illuvial Stage 3 mechanics.

#GauntletSynergies

The requirement for activating synergies at 3/3 again feels a bit off. It seems like things don’t fit together as well, and it takes away some of the dopamine hit you get from reaching synergy thresholds.

#Ascendant

I was surprised to log into Arena and see the new UI without Ascendant, but I have to admit, it looks much cleaner with fewer options to choose from.

Testnet is still running on patch B so we should only focus the feedback towards the ranger integration
