While details are sparse concerning the final chapter, players can expect the upcoming events to offer bonus progression and temporary repeatable quests.

Each of these events will be linked to a character in Ramsgate. One such event is "Bosun's Bounty," rewarding players with a bounty token whenever completing a bounty and also debuts a repeatable Escalation quest to earn more of them. The devs plan to start with five bonus events that will get slotted into a regular rotation till the end of 2022.

Other areas in the patch notes reveal that the "Founder" and "Slayer of the Queen" titles are now legendary. Furthermore, the Umbral Nayzaga Normal Trial features a "Deadly" modifier as the Dauntless version gets the same treatment but also has a "Fury" modifier.
