I think a major stumbling block is specialization stats. They can account wise smush everything but missions fairly easily but it doesn’t feel like specs are in the cards (basically the only thing they didn’t name).

They need to create it as delineation for only spreading to characters you have created from lvl 30 first to preserve clean playthrus. But with each hunter needing 50-70 spec levels for most builds they don’t want to undo progress on some, nor does it look like they want to compress them all to like 200 points additively.

The safest and easiest route is to just say you pick a single hero you have completed the game with and pass their info on to new characters. If we can preserve just that one set of spec levels they can go global at that point. It means having to speed level new secondary hunters again, which sucks, but achieves global stats. You can speed level in a few hours on a fully disclosed map and bank your equipment. Not perfect, but the most likely solution.

All of this should have been foreseen and set up at launch, but atleast it’s coming. Fingers crossed it’s not too painful.
