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

So...Mine only just patched this morning, Checked my add on and it says DLC is installed, Was that done in the big 17gb patch? The mrs did put all my codes in for me yesterday?

Im just wanting to know will i actually be able to play the DLC tonight or when i attempt a DLC mission will it download even more stuff :/

should all be done with the 17gb patch as that included all the TTK content, there might me a little 1-5mb hotfix that came out yesterday but you should be good to go
 
I'll be around from 1130 ish if anyone wants a hand with the daily heroic/crucible for dem marks. If you're up to around 240 light I can help you through some heroic strikes too.
 
Strike thoughts....

Updated Cerberus Vae is quite fun, middle section is very different (no tank).
The Undying Mind is a sloooooog. Not fun.
Taniks is pretty straightforward til taniks himself then you have to play a long game like skolas and manage adds.
Shanktastic one on earth is cool, I like the little electric hallway part.

Faction package/engram drop light levels is definitely linked to your light...so you'll slowly accumulate higher light as long as you're doing content with drops. Already the gear I'm getting from factions/engrams is higher light than vendor gear, got a 294 light New Monarchy sidewarm from a package.
 
Yeah I did the Heroic Undying Mind strike last night, what a bore! I'd imagine when you're at 280+ light it's a breeze, but I was at 261 light and it was just painful with two others at similar levels

What level are the strikes? I forgot to check last night. I am only 230 at the moment which I'm sure is too low but want to get them started as soon as I can.

If that is true that higher level stuff will drop then that is good. Though so far I have from packages I have had 4 class items and 5 primary weapons so it would be nice to get some other armour in a drop.
 
Heroic playlists are 260, but otherwise it's just level 36 (no light recommendation)

You get at least one guaranteed legendary engram/drop at the end of a heroic strike, so it's well worth doing

Is that guarantee for the first one per day or every strike? If every strike then once people hit 260 light we should be swimming in engrams.
 
Thin on content? I did an 11 hour stint yesterday and still have loads of stuff to do for the first time.

As regards being 'stuck' with certain gear...that's what infusion is for. Once you've been playing longer you'll be able to start infusing gear to get the load out you want not just whatever has the highest light.

I have yet to see a single hunter class item that can be infused...

Was a bit of a shock to discover that patrol missions have been adjusted, sent to kill a high ranking target that turned out to be a level 40 hive knight major, I failed :-)
 
Waste of money? I got them free as part of my pre-order, not sure where you got ripped off from :p

Exactly. It was a free pre order bonus designed for new players. Would have been cool if they were legendaries, but its free so who cares.

I'd watch yourself I said it was a joke they are charging £40 for a small expansion when the main game was £40 and this only has like a quarter of the content and white knights appeared :eek:

what do you expect when you're not being fair. They are not charging "40 for a small expansion" Its definitely an expansion, but its not a small one. There's loads to do. We've only just scratched the surface of the new content.

Its not like the previous DLCs where you ran 5 story missions and a strike and that was the new content over until the raid unlocked.

Could the price do with being lower ? Absolutely. There isn't a whole new game in here ( when compared with the content in ... say .. MGS V) but you get so much more over previous DLCs that were £20 each, that £40 in comparison to the standard £20 activision / EA expansions seems about right.

Rather amusing - the level system and light is still pointless. Everyone will be maxed out within a week


You've mis understood the purpose. The whole idea about making the change was never to stop people getting good gear quickly. It was to make the system easier so that new players didn't just give up at 20 when they couldn't understand how to level up.

Not well... not well

This, all clans do is get OcUk under your name in the loading screen. That's it.

You only get 10 legendary marks for the first three heroic per week! Still get drops though I think.

As regards factions....it's no longer the case that each faction has different stat bonuses. New Monarchy vendor has INT/DIS boots and mark, FWC has DIS/STR boots.....so just pick whichever faction you want, there is no *right* choice anymore.

Heroics are 260, although there were a couple people at 240-245 in my fireteam and we managed, although it's a bit of a slog.
