I posted some more info here: Loot in memoriam
In short it should be more than made up for through the year, and we’ll think on how to keep redistributing them. (Like how early adopters bonus unlocked a bunch from them, or the Oz color themes just unlocked for default now.)
Honestly a better place for them might actually be more for people who have unlocked most rewards already, since they could be both more useful then to keep some surprises and unlocks coming, and also less confusing for veterans. I don’t know! But I would like to think on this some more and figure out a better solution.
