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

Xur - near the speaker:

Immolation Fists
Celestial Nighthawk
Heart of the Praxic Fire
Helm Engram

Titan arms are pretty decent, tracking *and* death exploding hammers, already got em though, and shame they don't take shaders.
 
Lord Saladin will welcome competitors to back the Tower on October 13th.

Prepare to control the zones. Level up and choose your weapon. Power still matters, and we’re adjusting the damage curves to work with the new measurement systems. That’s not all that’s different about Iron Banner in Year Two. We have a tactical briefing from Crucible Designer, Jeremiah Pieschl to help you get ready for battle:

The tempered buff is now automatically applied and continues to grow in effectiveness each day of the event.

The alt catch-up buff and Iron Medallion mechanics are unchanged.

Potential match completion rewards now include both weapons and armor, matching the same items available from Lord Saladin during each event.

Drop rates have been increased and are intended to be the primary source of rewards from Iron Banner. If you don't get what you're hoping for, you have the option to visit Lord Saladin instead.

Gear purchased from Lord Saladin now requires Legendary Marks instead of Glimmer.

New emblems have been added to his inventory.

All new bounties including 9 Daily bounties (3 per day) and 3 new Weekly bounties which reward Legendary Marks.

Recommended minimum Light for Iron Banner: 230.

Only Level 40 Guardians can lead a Fireteam.

Brother Vance will welcome competitors back to the Reef on October 16.

Prepare to eliminate the enemy. Yet again, power still matters. Increase your Light and form your very finest Fireteam. Trials of Osiris is keeping the trend of evolution in Year Two. Senior Designer Derek Carroll is here to tell you what you need to know to reach the Lighthouse, or die well trying:

Trials gear will now drop exclusively as end-of-match rewards for winning teams.
The more you win, the better those drops will be!
There’s no need to return to Brother Vance, all rewards come directly to you.

Passage Coins still drop for the losing team. Trials is still about winning, but Coins can help make that easier.

Trials Passages now have a Details page containing your active buffs. You won’t be able to add buffs once you’ve started your Trial, so make sure you buy them first!

Players that go undefeated on their Passage will continue to be invited to The Lighthouse.

Players may continue to play in the Trials past 9 wins (but they won’t get any better gear).

Brother Vance now has Trials Bounties available each weekend to provide players with a way to get sweet Trials gear, even if they’re not reaching the Lighthouse.

Regular Crucible Bounties are also still valid in Trials.

We will attempt to match up teams with similar win counts.
If you have 1 win, we will try to match you with another team with only 1 win.
If you have 8 wins… yup.

If we can’t find a high-quality match, we will loosen the win requirements first (in other words, we will not prioritize “wins” over low-latency matches).

Overtime timer in Elimination will now show 0:00 instead of stopping at 0:01 when time expires.

Teammate and enemy Revives now have distinct audio cues.

Recommended minimum Light for Trials of Osiris: 290.

Only Guardians with at least 251 Light can lead a Fireteam.
 
Not really sure what to do with my coins this week, I have 90. Immolation Fists are a must but I'm up to 305 light now so I just feel like going nuts on the helmet engram looking for a 310 Saint-14, still need some more three of coins as well.

Need more monies =(
 
Seems fine. If you're playing IB week you're on several days so you can crank out the daily crucible as well, only takes a few minutes.

I'm not having a moan about getting marks, it's more that there is nothing to spend glimmer on other than gunsmith orders and upgrades to gear.
 
8 wins vs 8 wins is going to be interesting, I wonder how much harder it will make a flawless run... The adept weapons do look epic though!!
 
Wonder how it'll treat people with different stages. Ie if I'm 8 wins and team up with some that are 5 wins? I reckon it'll take the 8 win as the lead but will be interesting to test.

Forcing everyone to take the buffs at the start just means we'll waste more coins and have to grind regular pvp more, I'd imagine. That said I have a nice stack already (assuming crucible starts dropping them again...?)

It's that day again....

LEGACY RAGE DAY!

Those users on the Bungie forums are up in arms for the third Friday in a row. :D

There should be a community agreement that no one tells them that they are being retards. Just tell them to keep going because its obviously just bad luck.
 
I have no idea what most of the things posted on here are.. :o

But I do enjoy killing things, I think I might have to invest in TTK when I get paid. I am at rank 23 now so need to push on. I keep seeing people that join me with some fantastic mad weaponry in the Vanguard Strikes.
 
I just purchased it, I think initially I just want to go steady through the story mode which I understand I can play alone? Is there any kind of trading in the game, like can people send you stuff? I only ask because I don't want anyone to offer if it's possible as I don't like being 'boosted' really through these things.

No, thankfully there is no trading of any kind between players.
 
Get the Three of Coins consumable from Xur if you have spare Strange Coins. Use on before playing a strike or doing a mission that has an Ultra enemy (normally a boss, with a yellow health bar and a skull on the label) and you have more chance of dropping Exotic Engrams.
