Paragon- Loot Crate Update, Ansel/HDR Support and Hero Bug Fixes

Loot Crate Update
Today is your last chance to try your luck at grabbing the Gilded/Onyx Scarab Grux skins from the Loot Crates before they disappear into the vault.

Additionally in this update, you will now be able to acquire Loot Crate Keys by simply playing as well as a potential drop from the Loot Crates themselves. Who said the key came before the crate?

You can find a full list of the skins/emotes/keys etc. being added into Loot Crates below.

Ansel and HDR!
Epic have been working with Nvidia to bring Ansel and HDR support to Paragon. With this update, users with supported Nvidia graphics cards and the latest drivers can use Nvidia Ansel tech to take 360°, super resolution, and more in-game screenshots.

Also, if you have an HDR capable monitor, you are in luck! You’ll be able to enable HDR and see Paragon like never before.

Coming Soon … Banners
Epic have some kinks to work out until Banners are fully ready. They had them scheduled for this update, but needed to squash those pesky bugs. Don’t worry, you’ll be able to peacock and show them off with tower takedowns and player kills in the very near future.
