In Community TWID #1, we announced we would soon be releasing Challenge Packs. These are free sets of challenges which can be completed to earn cosmetics and community triumph score for your D2 Community Hub profiles.
We have announced the following challenge packs for the first wave:
Over the course of the week, we will preview each of these challenge packs, including the objectives and rewards for each. On the seventh day we will announce a seventh challenge pack we didn't announce in the TWID.
So far, we have previewed Rhulk's Test, which you can read all about below.
Today, we will be previewing our Crucible centric challenge pack: Shaxx's Challenge.
Shaxx's Challenge is designed to be a long term PvP challenge pack, mainly focused around getting wins and kills across all Crucible modes. This does mean that wins and kills scored in Iron Banner & Trials won't just count for their challenge packs, but also this one.
Please note, the challenges and rewards below are subject to change and may not reflect the final iteration of the Shaxx's Challenge challenge pack. Some objectives are currently still being discussed and we will update you on exact objectives soon.
Our first set of emblems are earned through getting a specific number of wins. We are still discussing where to set the bar, but we can reveal the order you will unlock these rewards in.
The first win-based emblem for your Community Hub profile is Battle Tested.
The second win-based emblem for your Community Hub profile is The Helmet Stayed On.
The final win-based emblem for your Community Hub profile is Throw More Grenades.
For getting 100 kills in the Crucible, you will earn the Centurion emblem for your Community Hub profile.
