Retirement

• Retiring Hunters now grants 10,000 Bloodline XP

Developer’s note: In Update 1.16, we reduced the Bloodline XP rewards for Hunter retirement significantly—we acknowledge your frustrations with this change. With more available data and a better understanding of the implications to the Live Environment, we’ve decided to increase the XP reward to be more in line with the updated threshold for retirement. Retiring Hunters is still more difficult, but should be worthwhile pursuing again.
