Incomplete exotic bounties, including Elder Cipher, will be auto completed.
Also if anyone doesn't want to miss out on the Eris shaders you might want to pick them up before the patch. From what I've seen her new inventory doesn't have them, so I'm not sure if they will be obtainable or not.
Here is my favorite personal story from DGAF Year 1:
It was December 7th, and I couldn't get enough of the Vault of Glass. The grind of a thousand public events for Vanguard marks could not stop me. I finally hit a light level high enough to fully contribute to a normal raid, but my real life buddies were not keeping up. And so when Ghaleon asked way back in OT11 if anyone was up for a raid, I jumped at the opportunity. He already had Dax and "another" lined up so he needed three.
He seemed pretty cool in his interactions on GAF and so I joined. Little did I know that "another" ended up being not one, but two Bungie employees!

It was such an honor to play with some of the designers. When you come across something in the world and they can say, "I put that there," I don't know, it just makes the game more than just a game. The art of it all comes forward. Someone somewhere worked hard to make a world that is believable enough to make sense so that you don't question it, but experience it. That raid with the designers has to be one of my favorite gaming experiences of all time.
I love this game so much, but this community even more. I can't devote as much time to this game as others. I'm a dad of two preschoolers so I have an hour or two in the evenings at most and I have to be super quiet on the mic. But I would never had such an awesome opportunity if it weren't for this group. Thank you all and see you in year 2!

Exotic bounties will auto-complete, including Elder Ciphers.

Thanks Rubenov and Wicked for the grade A carry! I got to experience the lighthouse after they pulled me to a 9-0 trial. Super inside considering I only had 3 or 4 kills total and was quite under leveled at 31.
I got the Last Word just in time for it to be nerfed.

Ghaleon, just wanted to say thanks for all you've done to keep this place as respectful and positive an environment as it was in your power to do. I know it wouldn't have been nearly as successful without your regular presence here and everyone appreciates it, whether they realize it or not.
I remember this run - one of, if not my actual first - and it was a ton of fun. Glad you could join. Dan and Lars are good people - great developers, nice folks, fun to play with.
Thanks, Hawkian. I've tried to nudge things here and there, but it's been surprisingly low maintenance. DestinyGAF self-moderates 99% of the time, so my job is super easy.

I can help out tomorrow evening or another day this week. I'm usually on from 8PM-1AM EST. We'll get you that triumph; plenty of people around here willing to help.
Does anyone know if this counts for husk of the pit?

I've got 3 ready to go. Thorn, Invective and Lord of Wolves. I think I read on here a few days ago someone has 6 or so exotic bounties waiting for the patch.
I don't believe so, Husk isn't really a bounty. I would go ahead and buy an Embalming Orb though if you don't have one, as I'm not sure Eris will carry them anymore and you need it to upgrade Husk to Eidolon Ally.
Going to assume no.

Ugh due to a power outage I missed a lot of the last Trials night, sad face.
At least there will be Rift to try out soon

That would be absolutely amazing if you could, its all i nede and im starting to stress over the fact that i might not get it. Like i said, i dont have many friends who play Destiny and its all I have left.
But those times work perfect for me beccause thats 5-10 my time, Send me a friend request on PSN (AtticusPersona) and just let me know and ill be on as quick as i can.

If by abused you mean not having to run prison over and over on your alts. I ran a 35 today to pick up my third cipher, Dregs Promise will beer mine. Had to run it titan fit the guaranteed drop. Respect to people who main titan, beaten Skolas a good number of times (don't know why because his drop rate is terrible) but this last one was painful. Though maybe it was just because this was my first completion without anyone using fireborn that made it painful.

Heh, that's so awesome. Lars was definitely a great guy when I met him at gamescomm.
Speaking of Lars, here is my signed poster from him :

what surprise are you guys talking about?
Just to fully round out the spectrum of Year 1 memories, my #1 best memory was my first HM Crota kill which was also my first HM kill as swordbearer. It was so, so goddamn satisfying after multiple days of trying and playing with a severe handicap for 80% of the experience- I had no Infusion helm and hunters are quite limited for recovery, but then someone in this thread mentioned Mask of the Third man which I'd totally ignored in favor of my prize Knucklehead up til that point. Turned in a cascade of bounties to unlock the perk on the helm- though not max it, so I still had to switch to it and back to be 32 whenever I wanted to heal from an orb- basically 15 minutes before the killing run. My hands were shaking for hours after the kill and I couldn't wait to put the blade to him again and again afterward (as any Sword School attendees out there heard from me many times ). As reviled as Crota's End seems to be by consensus, I still consider it to be extraordinarily fun content, and running the sword to be one of the most rewarding activities you can do in the game.
My first ever Normal VoG clear with my wonderful old raid group is a close second though, and it's razor thin. Even though I had long found all the systems in the game fascinating (as well as the resulting frustration that they caused in the playerbase) and was already well into working on guides for newbies at that point, that was the moment that really cemented for me that I'd be in it for the long haul. I'd absolutely-unquestionably-without-a-doubt never experienced anything like it in a videogame before and the extended success the game- already the best-selling new IP of all time by this point- would enjoy became obvious to me, despite the many, many problems which still plagued it at that moment. Many of those have since been corrected or at least addressed laterally, and the future potential is still off the charts crazy ridiculous.
Since then my friends list on PSN has ballooned to such silly-ass numbers it basically doesn't even function anymore, and it's shocking to me how many of the hundreds I see online I actually have individual, treasured memories of playing alongside. It has been a real honor to be a part of such a massive and active community as we watched this thing rocket awkwardly out of the gate and slowly grow more refined and polished over time. There have been missteps here and there, and disappointments, certainly, but the highs have been higher than most anything I've played in my quarter-century as a gamer.

Elder Ciphers...
...of course apparently all four of my Elder Ciphers will autocomplete tomorrow so, uh, neat.
And yes I did kill Skolas with an unmaxed Oversoul Edict, come at me.

Hell yeah. Can't argue with a no-wipe Skolas with a first-timer in the party. Thanks again for them clutch orbs.
Elder Ciphers...
Not that it matters for long, you know, at all, but just in case anyone was curious, if you have two Elder Ciphers in your bounties and get a Queen's Cipher from the chest it does apply to both simultaneously. Now I can basically work toward two weapons at once! lol

It's quite late for me now with work tomorrow, but I'm happy to help tomorrow night if that's best for you, or next weekend if you're around.
Ha, same. At work til 6:30 eastern.

Thanks guys for the one run at least. Time to sleep. 😴
Bummer.
Guess I'll be sitting on the copy of the game I have.
Wait, can I play the stuff that's already out (thats on the disc too, isn't it?)? Or do I need to wait until the 15th?

This past year has just been fantastic. I don't think I would have played nearly as much if it weren't for you guys. Fantastic memories, and I can't wait to make some more.

I have probably watched this 15+ times. I REALLY hope they either release another OST or update the original with the new music.

Idk, but what I do know is that they're hell of a lot more awesome.
I wanna know when the live action trailer will be released. Loved all of the ones by Bungie so far.
Well we're on the eve of 2.0 and my character is about as prepared as he could possibly be. Full 5k bounties, full public event packages, nearly all applicable reps edged, all my triumphs earned and I hit 34 along the way.
Most of that stuff I got with the help of people here after I returned to the game. So a big thanks to everyone I ran with. Looking forward to 2.0 this week and TTK next week.

Tomorrow is not a problem for me at all, just hit me up whenever! PSN AtticusPesrsona.
I wasn't with DGAF when Year One first began but I look forward to playing with you all in the beginning of Year Two and beyond.
Just to clarify here...
Why are people talking about being prepped so much for tomorrow? We aren't able to move past level 34 until the 15th.... Correct?
I understand we still have a week to fill up rep, public event packages and pick up 5k bounties.
Tomorrow is all the new guts of how the game will work/play from now on. But content wise we aren't seeing anything new.
Yes?

I think it was appropriate to kill Crota one more time right before Year 2. Feels right.
Well that's a shame but whatever. I have 1 on my Hunter, 1 on my Titan, and 2-ish-1 on my Warlock, none of which are complete, so... I guess worst case scenario I'm missing out on a free exotic shard? XD

All new crucible maps and modes are playable for everyone tomorrow. Other than that you are right, there's no point in being prepared in bounties and rep unless you don't plan on playing for a week.
