They're either buffing strike rewards or nerfing public event rewards...which one would Bungie do?
Hmm...

it is good but you still need that light buff for the tougher encounters so you are forced to use that stuff in the nightfall anyways.
It was really easy actually.
Why would the nerf public events??? Please make sense.

y'all weren't kidding about the Nameless Midnight....that gun puts in work!

Wouldn't that not work with the Vault since it's multi character based?
I thought it just looked at the best possible combo that your character has in inventory (able to be equipped on that specific character).
Oh really?! I didn't know that. Goodbye sweet lion!

I never get anything good anyway. If anything, have less public events so when there is one, more people will show up. They dont feel exciting anymore because theres too many of them. So people dont get pumped about it and just end up ignoring them since there will be a ton more relatively soon.
Public events need to feel exclusive and exiting and theyre not right now.
There's an area outside of the church in the EDZ where the flying dudes spawn endlessly, like 4-5 at a time. I just sat outside the door and completed it in minutes lol.

True, but at the very least you can cruise around with the gear you like doing the other stuff. Or worrying about having everything equipped correctly.
It works account-wide across all characters. So gearing up a 2nd and 3rd character actually goes a lot quicker.
I've seen a few people claim you actually have to have equipped it once for this to work.

Yes and no. A couple of levels aren't going to make a massive difference. It's much more important to be using weapons you feel comfortable with, along with your highest level armour than to be a few points higher.

Speaking of snipers I miss my old one from D1 that regenerated ammo.
That's a slippery slope... like most things.
Having them appear on the map with count-downs was a big change in itself... perhaps having less of them would indeed make them more "exciting"... but you will upset a lot of people if you cut back the frequency of activities... people want more things to do, not less.

What the hell happened to exotic armors? They look like cheap knock-offs of the originals.
Marvel
could never
Ah the D1 option select.
... what would happen if you delete EVERYTHING? What kinds of drops would you get then?
Just curious...
They are reusing D1 exotics??
Thats because theyre pretty much just used to get you up to 265 and for the occasional purp and exotic.
Wait, you don't even need to put stuff in the vault? Awesome change.
Also anyone know the adventures cap, is it 265?
Nah, I think they look better. Also, you can change the shaders for them.
Nighthawk ONLY for PVE, never PVP. You want multiple shots on your golden gun on PVP. Nightsalker is obviously great for PVE as well. PVP run pole dancer, for skip Nades and better special, I say.
You have to be wearing 280 gear every time you do it.

The top one is the new one? Top one looks way better.
Nah, that's false. It's taken into account whether you've equipped it or not.
This should probably be in the OP (maybe it is, haven't read it...) from Bungie:

I disagree. Nightstalker has a much better melee option than both other specs (the slow and disorient option), also stealth is fantastic, especially when combined with Stompies to completely vanish from combat. Sure you won't get a crazy multi kill two thirds of the way through the match, but I prefer having presence throughout the entire game.
Shame, though not a problem.
Their implementation of physically based rendering seems to clash quite a bit with the game's art style. Most shiny gear I've seen looked like it's covered in aluminium foil.
Better than Call to Serve?
For PVE Nighstalker with Way of the Trapper and Orpheus Rig exotic is awesome right now. In certain situations (like in some public events or strikes when you have a lot of enemies grouped together) you can pretty much spam Shadowshot one after another. I think catching around 8 to 10 enemies recharges your Super immediately, which is not that hard because Shadowshot with Way of the Trapper has a pretty great range and stays in place, so it can also catch enemies spawning in. Way of the Pathfinder generates an obscene number of orbs too, in situations where you can't catch a lot of enemies with a single Shadowshot it's probably better.

Yeah I thought the same thing.
The top one looks like Rise of Iron gear and the bottom one is horrible. However, there are tons that are better.

Two quick Qs:
1. What the best activity to grind for light levels when the story is done, just strikes like before?
2. Should I be hoarding Tokens to turn in at higher light levels or no?

Wait... this means when we level alts we no longer have to transfer gear around to level up faster, right? Although transferring weapons and armor for preference would still be a thing, of course.
Oh, don't say what it is then, I'm sure everyone knows.
Dawnblade with Attunement of Sky made it pretty simple. Took less than 10 minutes.

Finish all your adventures, max out your skill tree by playing the ones that give you upgrade points, then everything that awards blue gear, this will get you to power 250. Save everything you get during the process, tokens, milestones, don't turn them in.
After you reach ~250, start turning in all the zone tokens, gunsmith materials, planet materials, these faction awards will boost you to 265, which is blue gear's cap.
Then finish all the milestones, especially things that give "Powerful Gear", as these are the only ones that can go above 265.

I can see a "This is not how we envisioned our game being played" response coming up. I bet the fact that most people leveling to 20 from public events will be addressed.
Not saying I agree, but would be fairly Bungie-like.
It means you no longer have to transfer gear around to level up faster. Period. All Stop.
Again, D2 takes all items from inventory and vault space across your entire account into consideration when determining the power level of drops.
The chest respawn? That shit is mindnumbing didn't even try it.

Thanks, I should have listened to my instinct and hung on to the tokens. Lesson learned.
Hope this means I get Orpheus Rig soon.
