    See, this is part of why I'm taking a 2-week break. I can't buy the DLC for 2 weeks, therefore won't have access to those armour plates I'll be needing. Right? Anyway even if I'm wrong about that I don't want to work for nothing. If I'm unable to earn arkforge, the point is moot. I'm pouting.
    you should really start reading more and posting less. The patch notes are very clear.
    For $10 you get access to the new damage-type centric perks, the Chimera Vendor/pursuits and a starter kit. Everything else is simply updates to the base game, for everyone. That includes arkforge.

    I love defiance.

    But it is quite simply the easiest, most relaxing game I have ever played.

    CvC is ok and enternaining, PvE is fun, and the social elements are well.....we're human beings, so it varies wildly. (lol)

    But make no mistake, coloring enemies to look like Disney mascots and adding a red font that reads "Threat Level" doesnt make a game hard.

    This isnt Dark Souls.
    Hell, this isnt even Ninja Gaiden.

    Its Defiance, a wonderful CASUAL gaming experience.

    Final thought: you CAN learn a thing or two about economics in this game, people's buying and selling habits are eerily comparable to non-fictional items in the real world, and that may be this game's master stroke, the handling of money.

    This is a business, you know.

    While I'm in agreement with the essence of your feelings on the matter, I defy you to to produce a statement wherein TRION promised to scale the rewards up with the challenge.

    Defiance is not a casual game. They tried to cater to casual players, but it is not a casual game. Shooters are generally not casual.

    I wouldn't have said it if it were otherwise:

    Not to be outdone, enemies will now be more difficult to match players’ new DPS potential. In addition to the difference between standard and elite enemies being more pronounced, new enemy difficulty tiers featuring enhanced abilities and updated designs will be introduced. Ark hunters aren’t the only ones who have been benefiting from arkfalls! (Did we mention they drop better loot too? Because they do.)
    And you never answered my question. Is this confirmed on the live servers or are you speaking out of turn?

    1. I stand CORRECT!!!!!!
    2. speaking in turn, and authoritatively!
    3. they do NOT drop better loot, in any sense! ie. Kill an ARK BLACKLUNG, get a white and 11 script, 12 ark salvage. I have too many example of top tier enemies killed dropping unimproved "loot" in every essence of the word.

    If anyone suggests that's "better loot" ****, and check yer head.
