Changes to the game
The state of The Cycle will have several large changes in the near future along with the release of Season 3. Listed below are some of the major ones, what they mean and how it will impact the game moving forward.
The game will no longer have forced wipe after each season. The last global wipe will happen on March 29'th along the release of Season 3 and several things are being looked into to accomodate this change.
No forced wipes
No more global wipes does not mean that players themselves cannot initiate a wipe.
- Manual Wipe for players
- Players will be able to manually wipe (prestige) their progress, rather than have the forced wipe. This allows anyone to start fresh at any time, while not forcing anyone who does not wish to do so.
- Potential rewards will be handed out for players that prestige.

- Quest changes for more longevity.
- High-end Gear more expensive and harder to obtain.
