Stupid question, but how do I complete this weeks nightfall now with this bug in it? I've killed the first wave 3 times now, all from different places in the map and it's not letting me continue 
So moan time - while the changes are nice, a lot of it is stuff that should have been in from the start - especially material conversion...
Very annoyed about the whole 300 > 365 upgrade path as deleted a load of pre-DB legendaries due to vault space issues that were better than their 331 upgrades/replacements. Vanquisher 8/TDYK springs to mind...
Like to know what use Ascendant/Radiant materials are to the new DLC or does Empheric just replace them? What about Exotic shards? I guess the old materials could just be converted to Motes of Light which seem to be more useful for rerolling.

You need to either be down in the area where they spawn in (being up on the gantry where the Hobgoblins spawn is fine) or snipe everything bar one enemy per wave and kill the last enemy in the area they spawn (as in actually run down and kill it and then run back up). If you are in a fireteam you only need one person to be in the area. I find the rock in front of where 3 Hobgoblins spawn is a good spot to run / hide.

It is going to be interesting to find out. Exotic shards specifically as note doubt a lot of use have more than a few lying around (I had 24 at the last count).
EDIT: I am now annoyed that I had sharded my old Shadow Price due to a lack of vault space ...

I haven't read a lot about it but how I understand it is, everything is the same, except this new empheric light is used to upgrade older weapons and armour to the new attack and light levels. You'll still need ascendant materials for upgrades and radians materials for the raid stuff and maybe whatever drops in the prison of elders? (Not really read anything about the prison yet)
Ah right, thanks! Will try that then.
Might just wait for some friends to come online actually, pain in the bum on your own!
Lookinat the huge thread on Reddit it would appear that Exotics (at least weapons) can be upgraded to the new attack cap using an exotic shard instead of Etheric Light:

If that is the case for all Exotics and armour then that is a good thing (assuming of course it doesn't reset all progress gained so far).
Out of the box I should be able to max about 70% of my exotic collection to the new light cap.

Well Ive got 25+ exotic shards and a fair few strange coins - so if theres no real need to XP unlock nodes Ill make all my exotics 365 day one (well whenever Witcher 3 lets me).
Such a shame you cant drop the old 300 versions of legendaries as some of those pre-DB guns were pretty much broken stats-wise. Bungie had to temper them when DB was released...
Surprised they didnt talk about the ToO exotic scout reward.

Looks like it is now going to be 42 light per armour so the + 12 for each level has been maintained. Level 33 will only require a single Etheric light applied to either raid gear (and assume vendor gear - although this may still have a limit of max level - 1 like we do now), one upgraded and maxed Exotic and two pieces of light 36 gear.
The more I read the more I am really liking what I am seeing! 365 Vex straight out of the box..... Hnnnnggg

I'm looking forward to the DLC/changes etc. I kept a lot of my old gear in the vault or on other characters (Shadow Price/TDYK etc) So I'm happy that they can be upgraded, and will probably be quite rare!
I also like that there will be much more diversity getting to 34, not everyone will be running around in the same armour sets.
Only gripe is the lack of bounty changes, seems like an easy thing to update?
Keen to see what ToO and PoE have to offer

My 2 x Vex and 2 x Gjallahorn are awaiting this eagerly!
It's been very rare, but I've actually had a couple of pre-DLC weapons drop for me since the DLC. I can't remember what they were, and it's possible they were existing faction weapons but with pre-DLC attack level, but they definitely maxed out at 300. I dismantled them though.
The only pre-DLC, non-raid or IB legendary that I have remaining is Shadow Price. I did have TDYK for a while but dismantled it to make space
Apparently details of what the commendations do now will be in the weekly update today. From the screenshots you can see they are not used for buying gear.
Loving the changes, I presuming Etheric light will be hard to come by otherwise everyone will be l34 within a week or two

Well, it's likely they will have balanced etheric light acquisition so that it will take a 3 character player with all exotics 3-4 months or so (close to Comet) to get everything upgraded to max level, if they are doing the activities most weeks.
One thing they have done with this update, is make one hell of a complicated resource economy to balance....I feel for the designers haha

Having read all the changes, really like what they done Weapon/Armour upgrade path is great, and it would be good to have new versions of the the old weapons, I know most ppls will scream out for fatebringer, but also looking forward to a 365 version of VoC, also found I still have my shadowprice so extra bonus.
