Season of the Herbalist - Roadmap Fall 2026

I like the idea of a 47 taking on a cult, besides, there is already some groundworks lore-wise with the church of ascendants or however it’s called. The tricky part would be to differenciate it from the Ark Society.

Always felt that New York could be a pair of detectives or bank robbers as the targets, with them scouring different levels of the bank for access points to either build up an investigation or to plan a heist

NY could just feature any criminal kingpin looking to get some funding from whoevever succeeded to Savalas (and that person could be anywhere on the line from criminal bankster to somewhat honest, at least as far as bankers are concerned). Or get a redone vault for some kind of heist-like mission with extra objectives. Anyone could be a target in a NY bank really, there’s a bigger variety of people visiting those than there are in most places in WOA.

The cult thing was done before with Patient Zero and got revisited for Jovovich’s ET so that would probably feel a bit too much.

Obviously wasn’t going to happen, I was responding in a joking way, hence the laughter emoji, as I know we have the leaks thread for that! :+1:t2:

I think we have enough Cult missions in the game, especially recently.

That’s a fair question. Someone from The Sting perhaps? Hell, Tom Cruise is out of his Mission Impossible series now, so maybe he could be cheap enough to get as a new target.

This kinda feels a bit too “James-Bond-ey”. Also, wasn’t this already done with Holiday Hoarders’ Harry and Marv?

Let me answer that question with another question:

Did people need to take my words out of context to create cheap potshots, then harass myself, and other online, all for, and I cannot stress this enough, wanting to discuss game balance on a newly released item, in spaces where the general discourse of that video game is held by players?

If anyone’s conclusion to that question is “yes”, then please, perhaps reconsider that position, and how it affects the other people around you.

We are all better than that, not just the people on here, but everyone in the userbase as well. Treat others how you expect, or want to be treated. I am not immune to the above-mentioned behaviour either, but i’m at least willing to learn from it to become a better, more tolerant, and more well-rounded person.

Did you stop reading at the word “cult”, or are you unfamiliar with the term cult of personality, or do you just feel like :poop:ing on everything?

Anyway, the point was that there are definitely things they could do with New York besides “kill a banker”. I’m not a writer, so it’s not too surprising if my vague ideas would need work.

When will the next roadmap be announced?

Probably sometime next week. My biggest piece of evidence is that every year they’ve added some new challenge related to Halloween, and if they take a gap week and have the new roadmap start in November it’ll be too late

Yeah, the Mills Reverie, or whatever it’s called, is the only Halloween content they really have so they do like to replay it every year at this time. You could kind of all The Author a Halloween-adjacent map though.

Just a plain ol’ misreading of the text. That’s on me, sorry for that. A political rally or something like that wouldn’t be a bad idea. We have surprisingly few political assassinations in the World of Assassination (especially for a series that dealt with heads in powerful positions).

I am convinced six people liked this comment for this takedown alone that i’m not even sure is warranted? There was no dismissing of anyone’s ideas at all?!

I mentioned that Tom Cruise would make a good target to @THAT , and I brought up that certain mission themes had already been done (or might be a bit unsuitable for the game) to @chuckmcgillgaming, which is more a warning about it may come off as being a bit repetitive themes-wise, and isn’t dismissal of that idea at all?!

It’s nice to know that evidently, nobody took in the advice I gave earlier of being a nicer community and not throwing unneccesary barbs at people for ultimately trivial reasons, and treating others how you would want to be treated.

Willing to bet in the next fortnight. Possibly November-time, but they probably wouldn’t want to miss Great Pumpkin Halloween season. My bet is on October 25th or 28th.

New York ET Idea: The Successor, starring Brian Cox. Eliminate not just the new head of the bank, but his entire bloodline

No new contents this week T^T

Next week is the assumption I believe. It’s normally once the last elusive targets time runs out if not a few days after.

4 extra days of the Undying

So, the update will probably drop on 29th of October. I doubt they’d have us wait another week for new ET and Roadmap.

I hope not I hate when we get blue balled like this

Actually, it would make sense for the 28-29th because that recent puzzle they posted mentioned then that the next update would be 7 days later, which now is at 4 days to go.
