A Big Thank You for our Closed Beta Players[]
- All players who participated in the closed beta will receive a thank you gift, primarily in the form of packs.
- Everyone will receive a percentage of earned gold and packs in the form of packs, with a minimum of three packs.
- Everyone will also receive 1 Forge ticket and 1 Draft ticket.
Steam Integration[]

Features[]

Multiple Clarity Improvements[]

- Theme deck quests are now more clear with improved messaging.
- Packs now indicate how many Shiftstones you received when opening them.

Quest Updates[]
- 13 new quests were added to the daily quest rotation.
- Some existing quests have been updated with different requirements.
Economy Changes[]
The changes to the economy in this build are focused on three primary goals: 1) Make sure Eternal continues to be generously free to play. 2) Improvements for the new user experience 3) Shift gold rewards toward Silver and Gold chests to reduce the pain of poor runs in Forge/Draft and to boost the value of quests, easing the need to grind to earn gold.
- The free copies of each Scion given during the Campaign can no longer be destroyed.
- Multiple adjustments to Shiftstone rewards and values.
- Gold adjustments to chests:
- Gold received from Bronze chests has been slightly reduced.
- Gold received from Silver and Gold chests has been slightly increased.
- Ranked no longer rewards an extra Bronze chest after the third win.
- End of season rewards have been redesigned. Rewards now come in the form of a pack + premium cards, depending on the rank achieved.
Deckbuilder[]

- Creating a side deck in deckbuilder has been disabled for the time being.
