Got in one last Dark Below story mission to hear Dinklebot wake the hive, and that seems as good a swansong for year one as I could have. I think the first thing I'll do post patch is wake the hive with Nolandroid.

If it's just a cosmetic item, then sure, why not?
I would love an emblem for having a maxed out Grimoire. I would love to see emblems for Flawless Raiders or Platinum (1000/1000 gamerscore) trophies.
All of these specialties are very much high end player stuff that I think should be recognized and rewarded.
Sometimes you wanna show off a little and stand in the tower sporting your new fancy item.
When Trials first came out, and you played a round of Control against 6 perfection emblems, you knew you were in for some shit.
Now, if the same scenario happened, you wouldn't think as much of it.
I am 100% in favor of rewarding players who go to certain extremes, as long as the rewards are mostly cosmetic.
Hah, you beat me: I'll only be getting one + Thorn.
Had that Thorn bounty at the PVP stage like ever since November... I'm really good at procrastinating.

I can get behind this but how do you reward it? Number of completions? Then you'll create the farming mindset people don't like. VIP in the fireteam? Then you get people fighting over kill stealing and such (I personally hate the co-op games that do this, if a game is co-op I don't want to feel like I'm competing against my teammate).
Just got to figure out a good way to recognize those players.
In PvE it allows you to self-revive even in shitty situations when swarmed by enemies and not get meleed to low health or death during resurrection animation, which is nice.
Probably gonna be like a 1mb patch or something and then BAM Taken King.

another negative is that Shaders don't change its color and it is just plain white.
Only Voidfang Vestiments allows it to change colors with the shaders.
No way a 1mb patch is going live at 2am pst (bungie time).

So I want to see if I'm understanding this correctly. After the 2.0 hits, the new leveling system will be in play.
That would mean that we would have to actually grind XP to get our level up past 20, right?
For those of us that are resetting or have gear sitting in the vault for a specific class, they no longer have the luxury of insta-max level by equipping a few pieces of gear?

Oh, I also have like 5 other Exotic bounties that'll get completed as well XDHah, you beat me: I'll only be getting one + Thorn.

I just want to complete my year one collection. All that's left are purifier robes and radiant dance machines.
Correct. Level cap will be 34 until 9/15 but you need to grind EXP all the way to level 34 after 2.0 patch hits. No more insta leveling from 20-34.
That is just general issue with many Warlock exotics. Shaders either don't affect them or when they affect them they turn into ugly single color messes, especially with those huge long coats.
Correct. Why are you rerolling your character though?

sure, but then the activity can't be something like Skolas because people need that for etheric light and cores (at first) and Ciphers. Can't be something like Trials because people need that for good elemental primaries (why are elemental primaries a PVP reward? Discussion for another day).
Grimoire/trophy related cosmetics sounds solid.
Zoba are you still looking for 2.0 titles?

50 Skolas clears where 1 or more members of the Fireteam are doing it for the first time. If it incites farming it'll be "PLZ MORE NEWBIES COME WITH ME" which isn't a bad thing
50 Mercury flawless passages where 1 or more members of the Fireteam have never been there.
VoG HM / CE HM flawless (separate emblems)
That kind of thing. A designer could come up with better stuff. Just saying there should be tokens of merit for those who are extra skilled, dedicated or helpful.

Absolutely correct. If you do not want to fully reset your progress to base and level from 1-40, do not "reset".
The level requirements for existing Year One gear, even without the Light-level factor, is currently a mystery to me. They may require level 20 to equip, be equippable from the very beginning, require level 30 to equip, level 34, or something even weirder.

Bungie should really put a Sex-Race-Face change machine in the tower... make it expensive but still they should do it.
I'm guessing they will only change what needs to be changed. So the requirements will still be level 20 to wear it but now it only boosts your new light stat by a marginal amount.

After the 2.0 patch hits it will be gone.

I dont understand why we can't even rotate our characters when creating them. You'd think that's pretty basic stuff you'd want in the game. Maybe memory limitations? Who knows...
Not after the 2.0 is live.

Hell, rule of thumb is that if you see a flawless emblem in Trials now, they were carried or are not very good. I'd say it holds up in 3/4 of the times you see it.
Shouldn't be when considering we can freely spin our gear around in preview now.

My favorite idea I ever saw on Reddit was to turn all the Medals (or at least the harder to get ones) you can get from Crucible into emblems, then people can sport their proudest medal they ever acheived as their emblem if they so wanted.
Then you might see people with 7th column, Unbreakable, We ran out of Medals, and Sum of all Tears as Emblem. That would be awesome.
Exactly. Usually if I see a full team sporting the same emblem/shader I assume they aren't actually that great, and are hoping to just psych out the other team in hopes they will quit/leave and they'll get a free pass.

My final year one Nightfall. This reward screen is borderline poetic.
I was remote playing from work and kept on dropping connection, so that's my excuse for the terrible performance. Gjallarhorn literally joined after Phogoth was already dead.
Beautiful
Having PVE rewards in trials was a genius idea by Bungie, it really brought trials to the forefront.

PSA: Petra currently has the Skoriks bounty for those who are missing that grimoire.
It may be gone after the patch and who knows if/when bungie will get around to adding the mission to the director.

Apparently people who don't have JOBS luck out and get to claim all of my Celestial Nighthawks while I'm stuck here like some kind of chump :'( :'( :'(

This one is amazing.
But it also excludes an even larger portion of the player base from getting those items.

Yup. Looking forward to all of that shit being fixed somehow.
Hopefully they looked at the numbers and realized how few people get that far in trials.

I agree. They added that in on the last update, iirc. Maybe they just haven't gotten around to it...or
nobody cares ;__;
