The implication would be that new raids would replace the old one. That being said, Krayt will probably be cycled back at some point in the future, so those teams would be useful again.

Is this official information from the Devs, or just your personal opinion? This isn't intended to be snarky, I was just wondering if you have inside info as a moderator.

It was the way I read the original post about it, but based on what people are saying, it's possible that was just an assumption I was reading into the text. It could be they leave Krayt as a legacy raid, I guess, with the mark III moved to Endor raid...but to me that also seems weird because if we add a new one every 8 months, the raid list would just get really long. I also can't see them spending development time on something that will never see the light of day again after a few months. We've seen datacron abilities recycle...I guess I always just assumed the new raids would too.

Krayt hardly feels like a Legacy anything. I'm really hoping they let you alternate between the two, otherwise this new Raid setup is dumb AF.

You can do whatever raid you want, just like today. But Mk3 tokens will only be in the Featured Raid. Currently that raid is Krayt, but once the bike one comes out that will be the Featured Raid.

I think this is the most likely scenario, but we don't actually know for sure yet.

They did actually tell us this, so not sure why people keep saying we don't know. Sure, CG could always change their minds, but they literally said this.

Because they said "raid currency" will be removed while simultaneously adding 3 raid currencies to the game - so it's ambiguous. Everyone is assuming they're talking about Mk3 since there's no Mk3 in HSTR - but they haven't been explicit, and many-a-player has been bit in the behind by making assumptions when CG was ambiguous.

One of the changes I was referring to (from the Feb RA):

Rewards also include new Raid Currency that can be used to purchase items from Shipments
This special Raid Currency can only be earned from the Featured Raid (the latest Raid released)

The rewards were apparently going to be some gear/mats/whatever, plus this new currency that was only in Krayt. But they changed it to all raid currency, with three different types.

We don't know what happens to the currencies with the new raid yet. My guess is they move mk3 to Endor (and maybe increase some mk1/mk2 to compensate) but no one really knows yet.
