I wouldnt hoard bounties this time. I do it as well but time I have a feeling it will be useless. Considering the soft cap is gonna get raised a lot and you have a big chance of bounties being wiped.

  • I mean I'm not really grinding the bounties for the power cap, but more for the seasonal pass since I got deluxe, I wouldn't really want to miss rewards, and I just like finishing the entire season pass like two/three weeks into its launch.

  • At the very least one should consider cashing in weekly bounties prior to Nov 10th, based on the following from the TWAB dated 4/30/2020: [quote]SHIFTING AWAY FROM WEEKLY FOMO XP and Season Rank gains are currently balanced around large contributions from Weekly Bounties. The intent here was to provide a large amount of progress for a small amount of focused play every week, but Weeklies fall down here because you lose out on big chunks of progress if you miss a week, and they are strained between too little progress for single-character players and too much repetitive work for triple-character players. While the specifics are still under development, as early as Season 12 we want to make this better by replacing Weekly Bounties with a mechanism that provides players with a set of non-expiring and account-scoped objectives each week that grant lots of Season Rank progress (more than the Weeklies they replace). That way the return on effort is better, more consistent between players. OPTIONAL XP OPTIMIZATION, NOT CRITICAL PATH Bounties have found their way into the critical path of some Seasonal pursuits, becoming primary sources for Seasonal progress. Starting in Season 12, we plan to steer away from this model in general. Bounties should focus on being an optional way to optimize for more or faster core progressions, like XP or Powerful gear by way of Challenges. When it comes to optimization, we recognize that there is a very blurry line between "optional" and "mandatory", and there's no perfect balance that works for everyone. But we think the balance is tilted too far towards feeling like you need to do bounties to unlock Seasonal content, so we're going to take this step to tilting back.[/quote] With the changes to weekly bounties that [i]may[/i] be coming with the start of Season 12, it’s [i]possible[/i] that weekly bounties from Season 11 that are being held onto will be wiped.
