Happy new year!Now that that’s out of the way, it’s finally time for me to turn my attention to going over as much of what came with 5.10 as possible.

Of course, as is the way of things, this ‘safety protocol’ was rendered somewhat nullified as BioWare promptly began churning out full spoilers for the appearance of a certain character on their website and social media channels. I can’t say I blame them, as this move will undoubtedly attract several long-gone veterans just for this update alone.Anyway, on with the stuff. ~~~The GoodOssus: The Characters I’ve already touched on the returning companions in this post, so I won’t touch on them again here.
