They are teasing 70 cap...
Here's what we know so far:
- If we go off of SEA's update schedule, we're supposed to be getting Altera Exploration before 70 cap. However, Exploration is basically an attendance event, and definitely not deserving of its own patch, especially when holding it at the very end of a cap is worthless other than a chance at free rare wings. Holding it at the start of a new level cap, however, gives everyone a head start on gearing, especially when 70 cap replaces the old spark/suffix system with Dragon Jades, assuming the reward list is updated. The SEA community was pretty mad about getting Exploration when they did.
- We don't know exactly when we're patching this month. There are no costume sales/events to indicate when our next patch is. It's either next week or the week after.
- Nexon says they hope to have the content gap between Korea and NA be shortened to 3 months or less by the end of 2015. The current gap is somewhere between 6-8 months, down from about a full year from last year.
Here's what I'm speculating:
- If we patch next week, it's most likely just Altera Exploration.
- If we get a maintenance next week, there's a possibility that we're getting 70 cap + Exploration the week after.
I believe the second is more likely to happen, as Nexon typically teases major content updates for DN NA two weeks in advance, and I really doubt they're stupid enough to be teasing something while releasing entirely different content the week after. The only exception to this pattern was 50 cap release which was teased about a month and a half in advance, and that was only because the community was ready to explode due to the long wait at the time. (About 3 months overdue, the community believed.)
