Pre-Order pack stepping stones

Member, Warrior of Old
Greetings adventurer!
Have you seen my brother, Olfred? He was hunting rats near the old--
Ehem.
I would like to humbly request that a few more levels of pre-order packs be added between Warrior of Old and Braver of Worlds.
Not to parry with words, but I like to sneak up things, you see. My mother didn't give me terribly long legs, I suppose. I'm quite appreciative of the woodwrights around these parts. They make the most useful -and some quite fetching!- barrels and crates of all manner and size. Why just the other fortnight, out past the east mill, just over the ridge there sat this comely crate under the storehouse window. An invitation to be sure! A rude man I shall never be, so I humbly accept the offer and nipped in.
The hospitality was pert near royal! My heart warmed as my belly filled.
I've been, of late, upgrading my pack each month, funds allowing. Some months I have naught but lint in my pockets, supposing the missus stays out of the wine barrel, and the kids fetch enough clams by the shore.
I admit some times the error is mine. Whats a man to do? That blacksmith is a scandalous skulk if there ever was one! It falls to me to ply him with ale to forestall anything terribly uncouth, and it would be quite rude if I didn't share in a few with him, we are friends after all!
After much toil and perseverance (usually hiding the wine skin from that lush I'm married to), I've attained the rank of Warrior of Old. The next royal patronage is the Braver of Worlds, at 300 shinies! Just the effort to imagine counting that high has me dunking my head in the river!
My Pa always said 'small bites', the tidesnapper never minded him none, that's why he only had 3 fingers on his left hand, but I took it to heart!

They continually update their new ashes shop with monthly cosmetics. So the thought of having to create a new static tier on Kickstarter which again was used back in 2017 is really not viable for any reason. If you like certain items from their current monthly shops, just buy those items directly. The one final perk you are privy to that others wouldn't be is if you save up money for the Braver of Worlds pack so you don't have a monthly sub in the future. Even if they made new tiers they would not change the level at which you would receive that perk which again in my opinion would just lead to more wasted time, where they could be focusing on the actual game.
Ehh?
You can still buy into higher tiers of pledge from the AoC shop. Kickstarter has nothing to do with this.
So again, eh?

I can understand the frustration of trying to save up a lot of money in one go to upgrade but I don't believe Intrepid have any intention of offering anything in between the 2 packs since the majority of people can't even get them anymore.
Good luck with your saving.
After seeing your post I inquired to the help desk, as I've recently purchased the Braver pack.
Greetings
When you upgraded to the Braver of Worlds package from your Explorer package, you got everything that came with the Kickstarter Braver of Worlds package. I know that it doesn't show in your inventory, but the lifetime subscription is part of the Braver of Worlds package. So you are good.

Cool beans, thanks.
Since you brought it up, I looked into it more. The summer crowdfunding also has a lifetime sub as a summer exclusive.

So, there it is. Exclusive may not mean exclusive and anything marked as exclusive may become available again. We have no way to know. Although, I do see that it actually costs 10% more for the summer version than the Kickstarter. So, exclusive for any given thing may just mean exclusive at that particular price.
I don’t see a problem letting a KS backer receive it through upgrading. Remember they said it was exclusive to Kickstarter. By restricting it to existing backers who upgrade, they aren’t being fraudulent, because that still preserves the exclusivity that they advertised.
