I think Sanctum would work well as a master mission, could keep pretty much everything the same and have each mission give 2-3 rooms. It would also make relics more available than being locked behind a league mechanic. Just an idea. Also, I don't think it's any more rewarding than heist or expedition, I think the loot explosion makes people overrate how rewarding it is.

Yeah the reward is like okay but not something insane busted. Like you finish floor 4 and get 3 divines for example. Well you had to do 38 maps and then 38 rooms to get that loot. But if you die and only do 37 rooms well then you get 1 divine maybe.
I wish I could auto save them. Like just auto save and kick me out until I'm at 8. And then let me run a full floor at a time.
Yes, please make divinia a core character!
If it’s a random spawn master mission that has no scarab or mission you can click on you should be able to do an entire floor given you don’t fail out.
very good idea, this could make one map have 3 sanctums. or gilded sanctum scarabs = each room you save is worth 3 rooms
I really hope Sanctum goes to the core game, it would be a shame to lose it, it's fun.
I understand it's not for everyone, maybe loot needs to be adjusted to make people with less competent builds able to perform a little better, but overall i think it works fine.
I would have loved some more room variety (mechanically), but it's still good as it is.
With how much work (assets, new monsters, completely new gameplay type, dozens of UI elements, pretty advanced questline for league mechanic standards) went into Sanctum there's pretty much no way it doesn't go core. It's Heist all over again.
The only way it would be scrapped is if it failed miserably and literally everyone hated it, like Lake of Kalandra. But it didn't. A lot of people love it.
Scourge had all of that too, yet here we are.
Yeah and scourge went core
Tainted currency went core, and scourge assets were reused for beyond.
The UI, storyline, quest NPC, and metaprogression weren't.
I think Sanctum and Expedition should be master missions. They’re like the other current master missions in feeling like little side quests you do while mapping. Maybe have a pool of master missions for each league.
Yeah the master choice is completely arbitrary at this point. Alva and Jun are masters because you work towards something (sanctum would make sense here as well), Niko and Einhar are pretty much Heist and Harvest which are not master missions.
I frankly don't care if Divinia is a master, but at least give us a Sanctum scarab when it goes core, 2/4/6/8 rooms.
Sorry to break it to you, but I they said it's not going core soon and they have no plans for it. Could happen later down the line or they could change their mind, but I wouldn't keep my hopes up
Edit: I'm an idiot, it is only certain that sanctified relics are not going core
No, they didn't. They said sanctum relics won't go core. They specifically did NOT say anything about Sanctum.
Why would they go out of their way to say relics aren't going core if they had no intention of bringing the entire mechanic to core? They could just say nothing will go core.
Ah, you're right! What does sanctum offer besides the gameplay loop though and sanctified relics?
Like heist has heist items, Alva has temples with double corruption and stuff, etc, so that's why I'm not keeping my expectations high
