Looking through the “Drill Into the Competition in Overwatch 2 – Season 10” article, I see a line that reads “or you can save them for new Mythic cosmetics that may appear in the shop in the future.”
Currently, you get everything in the battlepass and the mythic with one purchase. It’s not terrible value.
But they want to make some mythics separate from the BP, that you have to purchase separately and will probably cost just as much as the premium bp itself, which has everything in it and a mythic together.
Even if you bought every single premium bp so far, they’re going to make it so you’ll still need to buy extra prisms and spend extra money to get some mythics for some characters, and they will not be a “good” value, because they’ll just be one thing.
The one good value thing they had was the mythic skins, because you also get everything in the battlepass along with them.
That is just… wow this company is greedy.

You get 80 Mythic Prisms in the battle pass. It costs 80 Mythic Prisms to unlock all the customisations for a specific Mythic.
Or if you missed out on previous seasons you can buy Prisms to use for other Mythics
Yes, but if you want every mythic skin, you’ll have to buy more prisms to get the ones that will later appear in the shop only.
If someone has bought every premium bp, they’ll have every mythic so far, and they’ll also get the Mercy one. All they would need to spend would be 10$ every season to get the mythic every time.
Now they’ll need to spend 10$ and probably another 10$ I would guess to get extra mythics that they won’t put in the pass.
So eventually they’ll be spending 20$ some seasons instead of just 10$.

All the new and previous Mythic skins are going to be in the Mythic Shop from now on. If you fully complete the battle pass, you’ll get 80 Mythic Prisms which is enough to get a Mythic Skin with all its customisations. You’re not gonna have to spend extra money outside buying the battle pass

You don’t understand what I’m saying.
They’re going to put extra mythic skins in the shop, that need to bought with mythic prisms. If you use your mythic prisms to buy the skin in the battlepass, and you have every battlepass so far, you will need to buy more mythic prisms to also get the mythics in the shop, as they only give you enough for ONE mythic, the one in the battlepass.
In season 12 if they have a mythic in the bp and a mythic in the shop, you can only get one with the prisms from the bp, and then you have to buy more for the one in the shop, spending more than you normally would in a season.
It’s just more stuff you have to buy, and seeing how mythics are the best skins with lots of customization, sound effect changes and voice line changes, most people will want them.
That makes sense. They’re looking for ways to make more money. The game is doing well on the monetizion front. I hate it too.

I read that too. The italicized “may” made me concerned as well… but there were a couple of possible interpretations.
They didn’t want to commit to keeping all Mythics in the shop forever…
Or they’re going to have some Mythic items never in the shop…
Or they’re going to have , as you have said, items that are only in the shop.
We will have to see what they mean.

He is speculating that they will introduce shop exclusive mythic skins in the future, which is pretty reasonable tbh
Theyre all going to be mythic shop exclusive. Thats the point of the shop.
More money more money more money more mopney
You guys don’t have $20?!?
still only going to spend $10 on premium battlepass, apart from that, I won’t spend a single dime no matter how good anything else looks.
“or you can save them for new Mythic cosmetics that may appear in the shop in the future.”
I interpreted this as new parts for old skins, since some are lacking like Hanzo and Orisa, or just to spice up the really old ones. Multiple Mythics a season + not enough currency to unlock them for all of it just sounds like asking for outrage.
I do wish they gave us a little extra to work on older ones though, but I get that they don’t want people who play every season to just buy the mythic on Hour 1 of a season after a few seasons of this. I’m only missing Orisa’s and I wouldn’t use it even if I had it, but I’d like to have it just for the collection. But then I’ll always be half a skin behind.
Maybe temporary currency or vouchers for the shop for older skins/parts, earned from Events or Season challenges? While Current Season skin is Prism only.
Thought it was 20$, woops.
But still.
They oficially said (dont remember where(s)) that the shop wont have the last 2 current mythic season skins, for example: when S10 launches in some hours, you could get mythics from S1 to S7, but the S8 and S9 mythics, (Orisa and Moira) won’t be available during S10 in the mythic shop.
From what I understand, when S11 arrives, you would be able to get mythics till S8; in S12, till S9, etc.
Maybe it was bad wording.
Also, this is incorrect. If you got every single premium BP so far and got the mythics, theres no need to pay extra besides the usual BP, like always, thats the “benefit” of playing since the start of OW2 and bought the BP.

Found this in the Patch Notes for S10
have you completed every battle pass this (i almost said “expac”) LOL
I didn’t complete whatever season had mythic hanzo.
someone help me out here? that’s the only reason I might participate. but yes, i read it the same way as Lilrodes—if you have unlocked all the others, then tehre isn’t any reason to get butt hurt about this as you’re fine . A system to let people get them if they missed them is always welcome IMO and once again, doesn’t make them greedy.

Again, you guys are not understanding what I’m saying.
The reason you’d need to pay extra alongside the premium bp is because they are going to add mythics to the store that are separate from the bp. You only get 80 prisms in one season, enough to buy one mythic. If there is another mythic in the shop, and it also requires 80 prisms… you’d need to pay 10 more dollars to also get that mythic if you wanted both, because the 10 dollar premium bp only gives you enough for one.
I’m not explaining this again, I don’t understand why it’s so hard to get and I’m honestly getting frustrated.
Sweet naive doggo, there is no way enough prisms to fully unlock a mythic will cost the same as a BP.
There was a leak that suggested that it will cost $10 for 10 prisms and that fully getting a mythic will cost 80 prisms. With you needing at least 50 to unlock the first ‘level’ of the mythic then a further 10 for each ‘level’ after. Which means 1 variation of 1 mythic will cost $50 minimum if you buy them straight up.
They want more freedom of choice but not too much.
