- The Endgame update change for Scrolls is here, and im gonna go over my thougths and what i think about it. "Opening Cases of Fortune will now have a chance to grant an additional Scroll of Fortune for ALL Specializations"
Taken from the Ascension Discord:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
End-Game Scroll of Fortune Update
This is the end-game update mentioned alongside the Prestige Scrolls of Fortune announcement. Unlocks the ability to progress multiple specializations at end-game simultaneously.
Scrolls are Fortune are now placed in the "Specs" tab in your Character Advancement, freeing up your inventory.
Opening Cases of Fortune will now have a chance to grant an additional Scroll of Fortune for ALL Specializations.
Earn a Scroll of Fortune for both specs you have unlocked and those you haven't, you get the scrolls for all of them.
Scrolls of Fortune are now placed in the Character Advancement tab. This ensures inventory space remains free while unlocking scrolls for every spec.
Current Scrolls of Fortune can be right-clicked from bags to be added to the currency tab to free up inventory space.
This allows progress to be earned towards all end-game builds, progressing multiple builds at the same time.
Existing Cases of Fortune do not have this bonus chance. Only newly acquired Cases of Fortune have a chance to grant scrolls for all specs, even ones not yet unlocked!
With Season 9, Scrolls of Fortune were placed throughout every form of content. With build progression so heavily weighted towards the end game, this allows Heroes to push a single build to the absolute limits and acquire incredible power.
This was frustrating, as heroes felt compelled to funnel their Scrolls of Fortune into one specialization. Because cases opened in a secondary spec meant less rerolls on their most powerful spec, this limited their options to try other builds.
This update means no longer having to choose between pushing the limits of a powerful spec versus discovering entirely new fun & powerful ways to play. Every Case of Fortune now has a chance to earn progress for all specs, allowing secondary specs to grow in power while not feeling like it is at the expense of your primary spec.

"im gonna put on my positive glasses for this video" loool where were they bro
this update is not even aimed at endgame .... it does literally nothing don't know what Grey Dutch and co are currently smoking but they miss the mark when it comes to S9 quite a lot
It really is not that bad lol
Regardless of what anyone thinks of the update(s) recently, it's great that the Ascension Team is releasing content and updates faster than before. Great stuff.
I think adding something like being able to upgrade a random talent for scrolls would be cool. Since if you play it smart, you'll only have talents you like that can be upgraded, then you spend a few scrolls to upgrade a random one. Would be in line with this seasons' theme and allow for a much easier time making builds. Sometimes I don't get a single talent upgrade during leveling and like 350 rerolls at max level which sucks.
i really wanted this to be a talent rank update, either removed capstones or or increase chance to rank up. talents should have darkmoon cards you can buy for them just like spells. im not liking how this season is feeling like a Flex Seal tape commercial.... it feels like there are 4-5 devs that each do what they want and dont discuss changes, i mean we are even getting phantom changes with no changelog or changes only being posted in Discord....
I came up with something, maybe this could solve "the Endgame" for long time invested players.
Option 1) You can receive a new kind of scroll in Mythic or high difficulty content, which adds +1 rank to a specific talent of yours.
Option 2) In high endgame content you receive an Item, that lets you add +1 rank to a specific talent of yours by spending a certain amount of your scrolls. I.e.: for 10...20 Scrolls you can add your final rank to receive a capstone.
This way your build doesn't fall off. I personally believe that you should have that consistency at some point in the game. Just having more scrolls with your high tier build will not guarantee you anything.
You make a solid point about Capstones. It's a common problem with Ascension though.
Game gets overhauled and redesigned but there's always relics of a previous time left behind. Causes friction, but shouldn't be too hard to fix.
one of the comments to this video, had a very easy fix. And dunno how i feel about it still, but would be to OP properly.. But to just remove all 1/3 and 2/3 talents
so you just allways gained the full talent
@@Heytrix I actually enjoy the feeling of upgrading my talents. I wouldn't enjoy seeing them just removing partial talents...but that being said they do need to address the insane power weight that some capstones have. Check out Shamanistic Focus that's a 12% dmg buff to all Shocks lol
Great video.. ya capstones can completely make a build feel failed because of the final bonus being needed for most builds.
i feel your complaints about getting scrolls for other specs creates a certain amount of FOMO, but as a whole I see it as a one-way incentive or enticement. to put it simply, i'd rather have them and not need them than need them and not have them.
Thats a very good statement!
As you also say "its better then nothing" :')
i tried the resolute strat and it worked really good. I know its not for everyone but its a good option. You get like 5-6 Scrolls in BG per Win and i think nothing if u lose lol
ngl, that sounds kinda smart because BG's is (i think) the only leveling activity that also got an "endgame scroll" rework
so i might be better then questing!
Fuck me, im i gonna try pvp now.. -.-
You cant queue for bgs while resolute right?
@@Zeralop think that is true, hm
I mean, you refer to capstones but you can at least get the ticket turn ins to grab those. Find me fel infused or overheated strikes in over 4500 card packs. :/
Overheated strike was 1 out off 13 talents left for me, so can relate
Was a to big grind on alts for the packs
Imo incomplete talents should function like lucky cards, increased % to roll more or complete version.
that is also a good suggestion
This shit really missed the mark for me, I play one spec and try to optimize it to the max and this wont make it any easier to progress it at all imo, especially since I wont ever prestige it, big sadge
Hey, nice vid, first thing I wanted to ask is where to get that greedy demon aura :D, I wanted to track the distance of them but I'm a zug zug at doing auras. Second of all is that the chances of getting talents and skills for other specs is completely random. Opened around 15 packs of talents after the update and I got 2 talents for all my specs and 0 from 7 abilities packs, so ye is completely random.
weak aura link is now in the discription!
and thanks alot for the info and data! That also just shows that there something off, and i really hope they will atleast make it more consistent. Even if it means 1/7 or something!
Tyvm for the aura, and i hope the same lol, im still thinking that this is a prank and we're about to get the huge endgame update in the nexts few days or weeks and all of this was just to try our nerves and patience :D
Nice vids you're making btw ^^@@Heytrix
yeah, in before they change this to "endgame changes pt 1" ^^
What is the 1-50 manadtorm challange you talked about?
Cant remember when i said that..^^
They could just turn the capstones into talents but i'm not a dev so i unno
Yeah, but sadly very hard to do mid season
Else it could work
On one hand, this really isnt the end game update at all. On the other hand, this update alongside the previous one really favors the people who are trying to prestige and try out multiple builds.
I am one of the people who enjoy trying out new things so idk, this way I wont feel like Im missing out as much not pushing my main build. They probably still should drastically increase scroll gains at max level, via m+ or something and potentially remove talent levels.
i also feel like this is more a horizontal spec progression update, rather then a fix for endgame
removing talent levels sounds so crazy, when i read it. And its the first time i see the suggestion. But it fixes the capstone issue, and the way that ppl wanna upgrade talents as ive seen suggestions off already
It will be VERY strong for powerlevel, but it will fix many issues
@@Heytrix one big thing i dont see people talking about is that you actually need specs that have a good baseline to even utilize these scrolls. If you're gonna just prestige that spec again you're gonna have to destroy those saved up rerolls.
That leads me to currently trying to establish several "acceptable" baseline builds on several specs just to properly benefit from this update. At least I'm utilizing the bonus prestige rerolls to have an easier time setting them all up I guess.
very good point, and also thought about it after abit!
But the issue here is that the baseline spec have to be better then whatever you get from the next prestige. And most current random specs we have before the prestige update, are prop meh. Since we did't get the ton of free reroll from the prestiege update for them
so prop a good idea now to make some good baseline spec, yeah
@@Heytrix yeah theres a video idea in there for you as well, milk that haha
Baseline spec prioritization to properly benefit from the update, followed up by breaking down cores of spec to lay a good foundation, then 2-3 core/strong talents to roll into for it to become worthy of keeping and accumulating scrolls for
could do the milking for this for sure!
But think im gonna w8, and see if there is more changes comming before
don't wanna "waste time" if there is a chance for stuff to be changed soon :D
this update is just meh....
