I really doubt that will be true, and the non-RNG time from a fresh player to Level 28 with weaponry capable of doing the raid has probably just gone up by at least a third.

I hope he's there too, but I'm pretty sure you're reading what you want to read into that. Xur still has the same weekly schedule.

Running strikes in a few minutes to get one more Cryptarch package in the mail.

Ok cool.
Got my 3rd Titan to 20 today, just need to play a few crucible matches for rep and then getting some rest so I can jump on when the switch flips and unlocks the Dark Below content. Got the timer on my coffee machine set and just picked up some donuts. Ready to do this shit.
Also I should have about 3-4 commendations once it goes live, but I think I'm going to hold off on weapons until I see some impressions for now. For armor I'm going to probably wait till the end of the week after hopefully getting in some Crota's End clears and see what I get from that.

Tropical Freeze: Challenging but fair and fantastic 2D platformer with beautiful music + visuals.
Cat Mario: Cats. And Mario. What else needs to be said?
I would pick either of those unless your buddy is available for local multiplayer Smash.

I also put my hand up, many pages ago as a backup if needed.

No more engrams.

You will be able to purchase level 31 gear from vendors instead of 29. You get to skip 2 whole upgrade cycles. 29 gear -》 30 raid gear is completely bypassed for new players. The time to acquire may have slowed down with Commendations, but surely still faster than upgrading 2 sets and hoping rng blesses you in the raid.
He's coming over in an over aw yiss. Will check out Tropical Freeze until then!
I have about 60 hours of no responsibility in the middle of the week and a billion games to play, I feel like I just de-aged ten years
There'll still be engrams, DeeJ said on twitter that they'll be in Xur's inventory "sporadically" rather than always there
You know you done fucked up right?
I don't even know why i'm still trying to get praxic fire. Why does Bungie refuse to let me have it? Ive hyped it up to be far better than it really is by now.
Re: engrams
@DeeJ_BNG "Here's what I can confirm about Xur right now: -Exotic Engrams will still sporadically appear in his inventory -His inventory will be more powerful next week"
Re: what about Exotic shards, will exotic engrams replace them?
@DeeJ_BNG "The plan, as I understand it, is for shards to be available all the time. Engrams will appear from time to time."
Re: upgrading items tomorrow
Xur won't be there tomorrow and I'm thankful for that. give a few days for people to actually try their weaponry rather than impulse upgrade "cause it's there." Of course, if he has Ice Breaker on Friday you all know what to do.

This is the million dollar question that we 4am raiders want an answer to
You're assuming people want to play that far.
Wanting to get through the raid so you see all the content you've paid for is a legitimate end goal. That means 27 - 28. After that people may well have no interest in the game.
Which Gaf member is rNilla again? I know I remember they are a member but forget who it was lol There are too many people in DestinyGAF
Anyway, randomly got matched up against them in a crucible match.
Believe that is rodiard.

Well, that may be true. It may still be a similar time. Purchase an exotic from Xur and only 1 or 2 Legendaries from vendors and the increased base light level of nee gear will get you to 27 or 28. Time overall will not be that much different.

Looking at my stats, I have completed Vault of Glass more times than I thought. So far, I have 82 completions and I still enjoy playing this raid.
I'm really curious to see if in the long run Crota's End will be as fun as VoG.

That's enough gaming for the night. I need to get some rest before Crota's End goes live.
Thanks.
If can see Xur finally selling Praxic Fire only if he's selling new exotics for the other classes.

I see Xur offering Praxic Fire upgrade this week to troll everyone lusting after it.

The increased base light of two legendaries doesn't even get you to 26.
And realistically you need to be significantly above that to actually compete in the Raid, unless you want people wandering around with uncommon weapons.
if you're still looking I'm a newly 30 warlock looking to get gatekeepers/atheon in tonight. psn is lazybum.
