FYI to anyone hoarding legendaries: it might still be worth it to hoard them. In the 1.02 patch they will be made into blues, but they are also increasing the chances of blues to drop legendary items. Hell, you'd probably have better luck after the patch.
 
Good bye RNGesus?

still exists, as vanguard playlist only has added the possibility you can get legendary engrams plus what they already have, not to mention crucible and the fact you can get armor from another class.

So RNGesus is weaker.

But I'm agnostic so that's good. I don't inherently deny the possibility of RNGesus, I just need proof.

no, people should start hording blue engrams
 
Yeah, I saw that. I don't really use pulse rifles but I already have a nice legendary hand cannon. Argh.

I went for juju because I have The Chance as my hand cannon

These changes guarantee that Engrams will always decode into items at or above the quality of an engram.

AHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHA.

well thanks for all the vocal complaints guys! I didn't need the assistance to get to 29, but now I will be an unstoppable juggernaut regardless.

Although I should say, First Solar System Problems, I know everyone will largely agree this is a completely positive change, but this might ruin progression a little bit for me. Essentially, all my characters (even the ones that don't really exist yet) are now level 26+ and have legendary weapons or better in every slot.

I don't think it'll make the game less enjoyable for me exactly. I certainly won't feel like I've accomplished anything at all until Hawkmoon is mine.

edit: Oh wait they're gonna turn blue? That's awesome!

I mean, you know what I mean.
 
Also

"Legendary Engram items that exist in your inventory will be demoted to Rare quality when the patch goes live, so decode them while you can. But let’s be honest--even if you don’t, we all know they were blues already..."

Well, fuck you too, Bungie.

*grabs the popcorn and waits until he finishes reading the patch notes*
 
I sense there's a true reveal at some point with the Cryptarch...

Complete LOL if this happens. Wouldn't be shocked, however.

That would be perhaps the greatest thing ever.

"And guess what, Guardian? YOOOOOUUUUUURE FIIIIIIIIIIIIRRRREEEDDDD"

now all we need is one of the Cabal generals to take off his helmet, reveal himself as Rikishi, and tell us that he's helping the Darkness "for Da Rock!"
 
I mean.. it give us a reason to play now. what were they thinking before?

Hawkian wont all those purples be blue if you don't spend them before the patch?

My issue with RNGesus was not how to get the Engram but the fact a Purple Engram give me a blue gear.

Purple giving Purple or Gold (even if gold if 1%) is fine.

Legendarys turn into blues post patch

All those engrams are turning blue.

Have fun!

Even so, I doubt that the new legendary drops from rare engrams could possibly be better than the current legendary drops from legendary engrams. Rares are probably going from 1% to 2% legendary chance, and current legendaries are probably 5% legendary chance. I'd think it's still in your favor to use up legendary engrams before they convert.

Did you miss the part where all pre-patch legendary engrams are getting demoted to blues?
 
Seriously though. Fill up your entire vault with blue engrams before the patch. Increased chance it's a legendary once the patch goes live. Also once the patych goes live and you decrypt all those blues, you'll probably level up the cryptarch a couple of times. And there's a decent chance you'll get legendary engrams from that which are actual guaranteed legendaries, acendant materials, or an exotic.

Hawkian, buddy, I got some bad news.


Those engrams there... Well, they are going to be blue once patch hits.

Obviously I did. I'm at work still.

I'm just going to go on as planned then, buy a Gifted Blessing and decode and record the rates, just out of curiosity.

So when's the patch? :)

Really happy with how they're handling this.

Reversal of fortune.
 
Is your friend the luckiest person alive?

Yes and him and his brother, who has also gotten it, are being utter fucking dicks are rubbing it all over my face. Like that hobo on the street did with me that one night.

Posted the image twice and couldn't read the whole thing eh?
 
LOL. Loot farming seems so silly now eh :P

I don't mind, I am decked out in legendaries or higher. I just appreciate the shards.

These would actually turn blue. So i'm just going to carry out my experiment. I can't read the notes in full yet guys, when's the patch?
Posted the image twice and couldn't read the whole thing eh?
i have read 0% of it, I just saw that line quoted in this thread and got excited. as you can see, I'm actually happier that it won't be working in the hilarious way I first thought :)

I have some bad news for you....
(end of the patch notes)

Edit: They didn't specify a date outside of next week by the looks of it.

Just Purple Item Engrams.

Purple Gears Engrams before got before patch will be random and the ones get after the patch will give only Purple or Gold.

Only Engrams that drop after 1.0.2 are subject to this change.
