So the Havoc "season" is over... with no rewards to show for reaching Rank 40... just a Derank to look forward to?

I mean, it’s not like Havoc is proper seasonal content - so why is the forced Deranking us by 10 levels every ~4 months a thing?

There are no titles/frames/insignias/aquilas/cosmetics as “seasonal” rewards

Modifiers rotate slowly every few weeks but Havoc resets are not introducing anything new… like next week we aren’t going to have some new modifiers or maps…

I really wouldn’t mind climbing rank 30->40 IF the game gave some proper rewards for it, was more stable, and deranking was gone.

Sometimes the climb is brutal. A couple months ago I pushed 32->38 then deranked to 29 LOL… it was so demoralizing.

Darktide is genuinely not even stable enough to warrant Havoc demotions lol, disconnects/crashes affect way too many players & games…

last note I have for Havoc is I think Emperors Fading Light should be a rotating modifier not a guarantee, enemies and their spawns are buffed plenty in high Havocs, the player hardcore health/toughness nerf isnt needed every game

Resets were supposed to happen since Fatshark said they would do balance changes more often alongside Havoc changes

But they failed to deliver this since going from Season 2 to Season 3, nothing changed (arbites was added)

Season 4 introduced Rotten Armour and Contaminated Stimms so it kinda made sense to Reset

Then… Season 5 (this one) came with a new class and rebalance of mutators so… that’s really it, it didn’t made sense to reset once again

And now Season 6, we’ll see if anything changes or not (well I suppose pickpocket, shout and bubble getting nerfed will make a somewhat impact, barely tho)

A frame would be nice.

They went from doing zero to two, so I guess they made true on that promise?
