For Super Squirt Day (EU), if you have tdBattlePetScript/tdBattlePetScript Rematch, the script for squirt is:
ability(Sweep:457) [ round=1 ]
change(next) [ !self(#3).active & !self(#3).played ]
ability(Wind-Up:459) [ enemy(#3).active ]
ability(#1)
ability(#2)
ability(#3)
change(#1)
So let me get this straight. The shitty conduit which I don't care about and not upgrade it because of that will be upgraded by item which I have to buy for something I have to farm? Well, out of season April fools joke I guess. I think Blizzard should disallow weed smoking on home office because this is just bullshit.
So we are punished for farming stygia? xD
Nobody farms resource to upgrade least necessary item...
When conduits ranks were announced it was said that you get higher ranks for beating higher difficulty content. This here is most likely just an alternative path of getting high rank conduits that is easy to do but takes longer.
The reason why this is the only way to upgrade them right now is because higher rank conduits are simply not yet implemented in the beta. And that is a bit worrisome considering that the game comes out in a month...
this is basically echoes, you get your bulk of stygia from torghast, which will be weekly capped i think, and you can grind more in the maw, but i imagine the maw will be so tedious that of courrse everyone in method and limit is gonna have a 5 man team there grinding it til they max out their jailer eye lol, but i think for 90% of people willl just do torghast weekly can be done and get power upgrades over time as a soft nerf
This is not the only means by which you increase conduit rank. Conduit rank scales with the conduit's item level.
The way it works is that Conduit rank depends on the difficulty of the content you do. When you get a conduit it doesnt start at lvl 1 necessarily unless you got it from a heroic dungeon or w.e is the lowest source you can get it from. If you get a conduit from a mythic raid or max lvl pvp or +15 M+ it ll be max rank and you dont need to upgrade it through stygia. This is just added as a stygia dump when you dont know what to do with your stygia kinda like how there are mounts for memento dump. It just helps you collect and level all your conduits if you dont want to do the related activity to upgrade them. For example I know I ll never get 2k+ in arena cause I dont pvp that much. With this, after I have my BiS and sockets, I can dump my stygia in upgrading and getting the conduits that are related to pvp. I l get em slower than a pvper but I ll get em eventually. Its a great system.
The assured socket to items + random leveling to conduits over time (+ whatever other method) is a welcome addition. I do hope they add something similar to gear and upgrading its ilvl like we used to have in past expansions. But the assured socket gains is a major plus.
The beta is feature complete. Features in regard to that development step refer to systems and mechanics. The programmers have long started working on 9.1 and 10.0, only content devs work on 9.0 outside of bugfixing. This just uses existing systems, so it isn't technically a feature.
A feature was implementing the tech behind the soulbinds and conduits. Actually putting them into the drop tables is not.
