Psa: do not boost to 100

All your gear (ubers, masterworks etc) will be GONE if you boost to 100 and replaced with generic gear.

How do we play test if all our gear disappears if we boost to 100?

This is regarding PTR, not LIVE. I am aware my LIVE gear is not affected as I saw a Blue post reply to.

The copy of your character on PTR is for PTR only, and is a separate instance from the live game. It will not effect your character or gear on the live game.

Boosting is a function for players who make a new character on PTR and need immediate gear and other items.

Boosting an existing character on PTR can replace many of those with the boosted components. It essentially replaces your character, items, etc with what we would give to a boost.

This is our first season with PTR character copy so we will look to make improvements to the flow in the future.

It is something I will bring back to the team for future PTR seasons.
