[h2]New Features
[/h2]

A new way to earn more rewards during a season and gain exclusive content, including new Guardian Skins, Runes, Emotes, and more! This will be replacing the Arcane Cauldron and will appear once the September season starts.

We’ve changed Bounties into a new Quest system! Alongside daily quests for a choice of rewards, Mages can complete questlines for additional rewards that accompany each season. Mages won’t need to complete every quest to earn the final reward! This will appear once the September season starts.
