A Mysterious Merchant is Coming to Albion in The First Descendant

Some pretty cool stuff is inbound for TFD on October 10. We’ll get Ultimate Freyna, a new Ultimate Weapon, an awesome-looking Colossus named Death Stalker, and more. And, next to all of that, a special type of vendor is coming to Albion to help out the players with the grind in a peculiar (and much-requested) way.

We, as players, have wondered what’s the point of Invasions, after you manage to unlock Hailey. Sure, they are a neat dungeon, but nothing really motivates you to visit them as often as before. On the other hand, players also wondered what to do with all the excess Blueprints that they had. It is not impossible to end up with more Blueprints that you need (or want) during your adventures, and players would love to use them in some way, either by selling them or something similar. Thankfully, all of these issues will be solved pretty soon.

ETA-0 to the Rescue

In their latest Dev Notes, Nexon announced that a mysterious vendor named ETA-0 will be coming to Albion. They will only be available from Fridays to Sundays, ie, every weekend.

“ETA-0 offers a different list of goods each week, consisting of Descendant blueprints, weapon blueprints, materials, inventory expansions, paints etc., which require Standard ETA Vouchers or Premium ETA Vouchers to trade. These vouchers can be obtained by playing the 400% Infiltration Operation and exchanging surplus weapon blueprints.

In addition to the rotating shop, ETA-0 also offers the feature to exchange surplus weapon blueprints for ETA vouchers. However, due to the limited amount of goods that ETA-0 brings in, the amount of blueprints that can be exchanged each week is also limited.”

They finish by saying that the merchant, ETA-0, is only the first feature where you can exchange your excess Blueprints and that more similar ones are planned. Nexon really does try to make the grinding easier, first with Freyna’s Encrypted Vault Store, where you can get weapon Blueprints of your choice, and now with ETA-0 announced for the next month.
