*** The Official Destiny Thread (now includes 2.0 and TTK) ***

That Crucible part of the bounty ain't too bad. I'm rubbish at it but the points soon mount up, plus on the Bad Juju bounty there's no deduction for deaths (luckily for me!)
 
Pretty sure bounties have always refreshed at 10AM and 10PM... Have they changed this to 9AM only?

I have always gone on in a morning and night time to collect the refreshed bounties...

They've only ever refreshed at 9am for me.
 
It apparently won't be in the rotation...

"All existing strikes and maps are still accessible. Specific activities like nightfall will periodically feature expansion 1 content on the week the newest content is live. New public events, updated weapons and gear, new bounties, and of course the steady stream of updates are all available without additional cost to all players."

I know this is contraversial, but I really hope they reverse this decision at some point.

I do understand the argument from those who have not purchased the DLC that being locked out of activities for period of time is unfair

However from the other side based on this statement, we can guess that:-

1) Additional DLC story missions added won't be in the daily heroic
2) 3 out of 8 strikes (DLC + 2 PS4 Exclusives) won't be in weekly / nightfall
3) Additional Crucible maps won't be in Iron Banner

This means that a lot of the additional content we've paid for will be a one time deal which we won't see again as it's not included in the activities which we are most frequently played (daily/weekly/nightfall/crucible). No one goes and plays the ps4 exclusive flayer strike as there are no rewards attached to it and it feels completely wasted. I don't want all additional content to be wasted in such a way

If they had implemented separate playlists that would have been something. If you haven't bought the dlc yet you basically have hardly any endgame content to play now.
 
nice, finished off the evening with a legendary engram turning into DLC Machine Gun "Against All Odds" with perfect perks: Aiming weapon increases range + Bonus dmg after kills for a short time. (272/331 atk, solar)..!

actually really enjoying the expansion so far, more than I thought I would O.o

probably won't take long to get bored of the grinding again though :p


edit: just checked out the "sunsetting" shader from DLC vendor, WOW it looks amazing, need rank 4 with her tho

No the exotics should definitely drop as higher damage from now. But I just find it a bit **** that my favourite weapon, Fatebringer, isn't going to be viable in the long run.

Just to confirm this is NOT strictly true.

We did VOG on normal today, I had the exotic AR drop, and it's the old 300 atk version.

Exotic bounties, on the other hand, will create new 331 atk (or whatever attack it is) versions of the weapon. This applies even if you started those bounties prior to the dlc.

As for weapon drops on the new raid, well I can only assume that they will also be the new higher attack versions, but I cannot confirm this as I haven't had one drop yet.
 
I am liking the new content so far. The three story missions start off relatively easy and quickly throw you in the deep end (selecting level 30 instead of the normal difficulty). I have done them on both my Warlocks but still need to do them on my hunter. Quick word of advice, on the third mission don't hang back in the doorway at the end for too long. Two apparantly invunerable shielded knights will spawn and drop you very quickly. I hit them with a 300 Attack Arc swarm and their shield bars didn't even budge.

I absolutely love the Murmur fusion rifle. It is beastly for the kill 2+ bounty and feels much better than any other fusion rifle I have tried.
 
What new content? :p we're just flying around the same places. The only things that are remotely new are the few rooms that we didn't have access to previously as they were locked.

INB4 Murmur nerfed.
