Warhammer 40K: Darktide's latest update brings big changes to how players earn gear and modify gear, and looks to be a step in the right direction for a title that has been heavily criticized by fans for feeling incomplete.

Patch #4, Blessings of the Omnissiah, revamps numerous aspects of Darktide's progression. For starters, players will always receive a new weapon or piece of gear upon completing a mission, something that curiously wasn't the case until now. Completing missions on higher difficulties will increase the chances of receiving a higher-rarity item.

Players have complained since launch about being unable to obtain the gear they want, as doing so largely revolved around sitting at a vendor that stocked random weapons and waiting for the vendor to refresh its inventory. Developer Fatshark has largely addressed that issue with the update, as players can simply buy a base version of any weapon type they've unlocked at any time at the Armory Exchange.
