So was anyone saving up their mailbox to see if those would trip legendaries? I know the purple engrams were going to turn blue, but I wasn't sure how my mailbox stuff would turn out.

Will check when I get home. I had 4 levels from the cryptarch just waiting in my mailbox.

No, but I saved up about 30 blue engrams to level the Cryptard in order to possibly get that purple once the patch drops.

I have a feeling this. I hope they dont screw with my mail.
 

Ouch man! Glad I didn't open that on my ps4 browser or that would have given my gf a seizure. On topic, I have a few guardians sitting on the cryptarch level tick over so I guess I should log in and push then into some legendary gear.

Is this the patch that also makes tiger strikes worth doing?
 
Those of you that kept all your blue engrams like me... Keep track ofeverything good you got from those blues and any goods from leveling up the cryptarch :) interested to see what everyone gets.
Yeah I initially was hoarding them so I can get the level up reward post patch but then I realized I also have greatly increased my chances of a blue turning to a purple as well :D

I'm doing this too, yes. I'm very curious to find out if it'll work, could you please quote me with the answer since I'm about to attend a meeting and your response will otherwise be buried by the time I get back ;P Thanks!
 
Someone said doing the bounties with "heroic modifier" at 28 was giving drops when handing in (can't find post now, sorry). Tried it with Sword of Krota bounty, received "Karuna, Falling" ship blueprint. Hardly a great prize, but any incentive other than "just because" to do those on 28 I'm up for, had been skipping them completely more recently.

EDIT: Also picked up a Legendary Engram that Cryptarch kindly turned into a level 18 sniper, at least that's the last time you can do that to me, Rahool!

I will have to try this, will report back on results.

You and me both. Going to be level 28. Does anyone know if you get 3 items at the post office once leveling him to 30?


Also, who would win in a fight - The Speaker or The Cryptarch?
 
I want to buy this from FWC. How is it? I only need 30 more Crucible Marks.
It's good man Iv only had a little mess in old Russia but it handels nice I was taking people down in 3 chest shots in cruicible as well. And yes I do ALLWAYS play in the same position lol.

You think maybe it's any Story mission at level 28 or just ones for the Bounty?
 
Hence why it's even more important for Destiny to have better itemization. I've got 6 chances per week right now. 1 from nightfall. 1 from Xur (even though once you have one exotic for pve that's all you need) and then 4 from the raid: 2 Templar, 2 Atheon. The chests should be the only place to get energy/shards. if I get the wrong item for my class then I'll get more shards that week.

Ah so the mistake was in giving the raid bosses the chance of completely shit drops instead of keeping those things exclusive to the chests.

So...who's going dressed as Rahool on Halloween? Last night I told my team, "If I see someone dressed as the cryptarch on Halloween, I'm gonna punch him in the face." Just joking, but that's gotta be a popular cosplay choice this year. PEACE.

Summary:
With this patch, we address some widely-discussed concerns with how Engrams are earned and claimed. Strikes have become more rewarding, and the rewards gained from them are more predictable. Also affected is the rotation of maps that appear in the Crucible.

Cryptarch
Legendary (purple) engrams will always produce a Legendary quality item or higher
Note: Legendary engrams that exist in your inventory will change to Rare quality items when the patch is applied. However, decoding these engrams will still produce the same results as before
Rare (blue) engrams will always produce a Rare quality item or higher
Chance for Legendary gear increased
Materials: Ascendant Shards and Ascendant Energy promoted to Legendary quality (from Rare quality)

Rewards
Rare (Blue) and Legendary (Purple) Engram drops added to the potential rewards for:
Vanguard: Tiger Strike Playlist
Daily Heroic Missions (first time per day)
Weekly Heroic Missions (first time per week)
Known issues
When selecting a higher difficulty for daily missions, XP Bonus not show in the reward display
You will still get the XP bonus, you just won't see it in the UI

Crucible
Reduced time limit on Bastion and First Light in Control and Clash from 15 to 12 minutes, bringing them in line with non-vehicle maps in those playlists
Lowered weighting on Bastion and First Light in Control and Clash so they appear less often in those playlists
