A new blogpost about upcoming features has been published.
- There will be a reworked version of SU called Divergent Universe with new blessings and curios. This version will allow you to save your blessings at the end of a run and then re-challenge only the bosses for the rest of the week, allowing for fast planar set farming. This new mode will NOT replace the old SU.
- There will be a third endgame mode which, from the sound of it, will cater to Hunt characters similar to how PF did to Erudition. So each patch we will have one of each modes two weeks apart.
- There will also be some Qo L features for the Team Setup interface and a way to check which teams your friends used to beat the endgame modes.

Huh. Regular simulated universe will still be around, but I'm not sure why, since it sounds like DU will include all of it's rewards while being more user-friendly
Not entirely sure what to make of Apocalyptic Shadow yet. It says the mode will focus on bosses, but, like, we have three different tiers of enemies the game refers to as bosses. Being built for ST damage makes the most sense, but if we're up against Aventurine or the True Sting...
2.3's first 5-star will be Sam.
"They played us like a DAMN FIDDLE!" — Kazuhira Miller, Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom PainGuess it’s time to update Sam’s page. Again.
Instead of focusing on relatives that divide us, maybe we should try to find the absolutes that tie us.So is SAM an acronym now?
Can't wait for the 2.2 reveal stream to be over to bombard everyone with Robin and Boothill memes.
All that's left is to see who is going to be the other character for 2.3.
I wonder if Sunday is going to be the one or not because that can have implications for the story in 2.2.

There wont be a new 4* in 2.2 we will get the new Trailblazer instead.
As for 2.3, maybe we will get another drip in 40 min.
When trying to pull for Jingliu, I lost the 50/50 to Himeko. Should I try again, or wait for Firefly? The only Ice units that I have are March 7th, Misha, Pela (max eidolons), Herta (missing 1 eidolon), and Gepard. The latter is the only one that I've extensively built. For fire, I have Asta, Guinaifen, Gallagher, Himeko (of course), and TB (max eidolons).
The banner goes down in roughly 2 weeks.

Everyone look at my sandboxThe other 2.3 5-star beside Sam will be Jade.
Surrender your bank account to the IPC, if you haven't done so with Topaz and Aventurine already.
"They played us like a DAMN FIDDLE!" — Kazuhira Miller, Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom PainAnd the second 5* of 2.3 is Jade.
A snake on a tree holding a bleeding apple in it's fangs. That's some symbolism right there, clearly indicating that Jade is a trustworthy, upstanding, and benevolent citizen.

Another Quantum female character. How original.
All jokes aside, I think I'll save up since the only Quantum units that I have are QQ and Xueyi.

Everyone look at my sandboxHuh, I was expecting Jade to be playable eventually, but the lack of a model in the 2.1 cutscenes made me think she'd be a way off. I don't really need another quantum unit, but she probably has good synergy with the other IPC characters, who I do use, so I may end up rolling for her anyway
Jade probably is related to Boothill. His drip marketing mentions that he is planning to get revenge on the IPC and Jade is an unscrupulous Loan Shark. So my : Jade somehow tricked him and now he owes the IPC money for his cyborgization, which may or may not have been unwilling.
His Synesthesia Beacon was also tampered with so that his foul words get translated to something more family-friendly, so maybe they also sabotaged it as penalty for failing to pay up
Just an eagle. (Feel free to PM me if you want to talk to me).Well at least it doesn't play ads
He can swear as recently as the last story quest and the IPC have their hands full of their own shit. If he got censored it would be by the family, not the IPC.
I absolutely cannot help but adore handsome 2D boys"Heck" still counts as swearing?

Ok I'm at a loss for how to beat Swarm King. I've tried Aventurine (lv 70), Archon (66), Pela (60) and Lynx (60) but couldn't even manage to get his first bar. I had decent success with team of Ratio (60), Lynx, Aventurine and Ruan Mei (70) but could not mitigate the damage in phase 2. The videos I've watched had units that I haven't leveled. Am I forever gated by this stupid boss? Why do trace mats need to be gated like this?
I would suggest swapping Ruan Mei for March 7th if you are having problems with damage mitigation, it will make the fight longer but you won't worry as much about keeping your team alive.
On another note, Jade is confirmed to be voiced by Kotono Mitsuishi, who voices/voiced Misato Katsuragi, Boa Hancock and Usagi Tsukino.
And now I want to note the irony that she's voicing a potentially evil Magical Girl whose codename is also related to the first villain her iconic role had to defeat.
Instead of focusing on relatives that divide us, maybe we should try to find the absolutes that tie us.
