I’m trying to figure out how the Forge Guard armor collection is meant to be obtained. Right now it seems tied to specific mission types, and the drop side of it feels a bit rough.
Has there been any sign that these skins will be added to an end-of-track reward box or some other alternate source later on?
From the discussion around it, the short answer is no clear confirmation yet. People are seeing it as a very limited acquisition path for now, with the collection tied to those specific activities and not obviously moved into any catch-up reward box.
If you are waiting for a cleaner route, I would treat that as a maybe someday thing rather than something announced. In the meantime, the current method still looks like the only guaranteed lane, aside from luck.
The annoying part is that the existing path mixes chance with a pretty narrow activity pool, so unlucky runs can stretch out forever. If the goal is the collection, it helps to think of it as a grind with no backup route yet.
As for the reward-track box idea, I would not count on it until there is an explicit note from the developers. These kinds of items sometimes get alternate access later, but plenty never do.
Juniper Slate:
Yeah, and even if it does get added later, it may still stay exclusive for a long while. Waiting for a second source could be a long game.
Noble Finch:
I’d keep an eye on future patch notes, but I wouldn’t plan around a near-term change. Right now the safest assumption is that the original methods are still the main ones.
If you are asking for practical advice rather than theory, the answer is basically to run the content that can drop it and decide whether the time sink is worth it for you. The collection does not look like something with a widely available substitute yet.
So the cleanest takeaway is this. No confirmed alternate acquisition method has been established in the discussion, and the reward-track idea remains just speculation for now.
Amber Nook:
That’s the safest read. People can hope for a later catch-up vendor or box, but hope is not the same thing as a confirmed source.

That matches what I’ve seen too. It feels more like players are hoping for a future adjustment than reacting to an official plan.
