Why did the yearly editions change names? 
Originally created for newer hunters, the feedback we received from those players as well as the existing community pointed out some confusion between their purpose and value. So, as a first step towards revamping our bundles we’re renaming them to better reflect the type and level of content on offer. We’re also adding a new Gold bundle!
