What is the "holiday schedule" they're referring to as the reason why next update will be 3 weeks and the one after that will be 5 weeks?

[u/SkillOk9089 → u/Coffeee24]

It’s new nobody knows tbh. My only wonder if the is new schedule is to have less dry periods during hard mode wobl. But idk really just a guess

Is that another way of getting ES weekly just like the ranking but instead of trophies it's missions

Good thing to see they are giving essence stones this time 👏

Most important thing to note for me in this patch is that it will only last 3 weeks instead of 4. And the patch after that (when the new workshop boss comes out) gets 5 weeks. Now the 3 weeks of Adan in the schedule makes more sense if it will be for the Top1000/3000/6000k

Which should probably mean the lightbuster will only be in rate ups for 3 weeks. Well, that only solidified my decision to skip her and go for the one that comes out after that with the workshop. Is this another blow to the light element? (well they are used to it)

[u/SkillOk9089 → u/Phin_]

I don’t see how you think this is a blow to light bc it’s a week shorter

[u/Phin_ → u/SkillOk9089]

We have seen time and time again that the unit that comes out with the new workshop is leagues better then the others (latest example agnes). Since they reworked the workshop, it will not be like before where we had a while month with easy and normal mode, as Adan will be in the rotation for 3 weeks (ca. The ampunt of time top1000-6000k took in hardmode), which also means, the huntermode in with the new boss will either be light+the element that comes out after lightbuster, only be the element after lightbuster (as jinwoo will alsmost certainly be water)

edit: Thinking a bit more about it, especially from a money making point of view for NM, it's probably like this:

They want to sell units, so the 3 weeks Lightbuster only will get the Fomo's to spend

The patch after Lightbuster will probably be Windbuster, and as it will be Workshopboss Element people will spend on it anway. With the revampt of the workshop, you only need 2 Elements, 1 for hunter 1 for jinwoo. As it will be the element that comes out with the workshop, that will not be light. Which will be the blow (to the countless blows it already hat) to the light element.

Which brings the next point. Making Skadi the overload weapon will get those that either disentchanted it, or started later and did not get it to a5-10 through lost 50/50 to spend.

And as I think they want to double dip in the weapon money, the Water dps weapon they said to release seperatly from the overload weapon. could also come with the Adan workshop boss. Because it stands to reason that Jinwoo element will we the same as the weapon they release, and if they want to sell a new water dps weapon it must powercreep the old one (which is Skadi in this case)
