CBT3 additions

The third closed beta expanded the launch-era systems with the Hammer, the Bounty Contest mode, Apex weapons and the Crimson Authority recruitment event. The event featured Freya, a Great Sword Adventurer with a Fire Disruptor identity.

The Hammer brought mobile charging and a rhythm-based Big Bang finisher. The Bounty Contest added a roguelike sequence of harder hunts with reinforcement choices between rounds.

You can read our Freya page, the Hammer guide and the monster database for the systems that carried into launch planning.
