Season of Dreams

  • Home is getting an icy makeover—this will persist for the duration of the Season
  • Two new areas in Valley of Triumph
  • Another 4 spirit season—reminder that structure will change from season to season to fit the story
  • Five new quests to complete which award regular hearts
    • Staggered release schedule
    • These quests can be repeated, but only give a Regular Heart reward the first time they are completed
      • No plans to make quest from old seasons repeatable at this time
    • New quests encourage different types of activities
    • Completing the quests, collecting the quest reward, and obtaining the Ultimate Gifts, from the Season Guide now count toward 100% season completion.

Tier 2 Heart Capes
  • Staggered release, more in future patches
    • Yellow
    • Red
    • Teal
  • New Wing Buffs obtainable from Spirits with the new capes
  • Collecting these capes does not count toward constellation completion progress
    • As a result of ensuring this new tier of items on the Spirits’ Friendship Trees do not count toward constellation completion, the requirements to complete the Daylight Prairie and Hidden Forest constellations have been reduced. The wave and cry spirits already had one extra tier than all other spirits (indicated by additional Wing Buffs) which no longer count toward constellation completion.
    • With this change the Ascended Candle costs for some Wing Buffs have been adjusted
Explanation for this change: Anything unlocked by the second Wing Buff (which largely consists of these new super expensive capes) will not make it harder to complete the constellation. As a result of this, we made the decision to "nerf" the requirements to get the prairie and forest ultimate gifts. While this may come as a disappointment for those who completed the constellation before this change, we felt it was in the best interest of the community as a whole to ensure that we did not block players from completing these constellations at the expense of these new capes. These capes are meant to be a long term goal. They are a symbol of being kind to others and building long term friendships.

After returning to Sanctuary, they shared these stories around the campfire and gazed at the stars, wondering
