PATCH NOTES

CHANGES AND UPDATES

Trade In Update

Trade Ins are now managed in their own section in the Garage
All Trade In-eligible items fall into three categories:
- Core Series Items
- Tournament Items
- Blueprints

The Trade In menu displays how many eligible Trade Ins you have, sorted by category and rarity
Trade Ins still operate the same way as before:
- 5 Uncommon = 1 Rare
- 5 Rare Items = 1 Very Rare
- 5 Very Rare = 1 Import
- 5 Imports = 1 Exotic
- 5 Exotics = 1 Black Market

Tournament Items and (revealed) Blueprints can now be traded in regardless of series. The Tournament Item or Blueprint you receive from a Trade In is directly tied to the series of the items you traded in.
- For example, if you trade in three Ignition Series Blueprints and two Ferocity Series Blueprints, you'll have a 60% chance to receive an Ignition Series Blueprint and a 40% chance to receive an Ferocity Series Blueprint.
