I'm glad No Backup Plans isn't going to be that good. It sounded broken as described.

Meh, undying mind with lightswitch, angry and no burns would be worse. That stairway to hell.
XB1 users will get this strike in September right?

Yeah all the year 1 exclusive content will come to Xbox this September and the cycle will begin again with Jade Rabbit and that one strike.

Yeah they'll have the Taken in the strikes. Dust Palace and Undying Mind are getting a Cabal/Taken element remake
What the shit .. this is crazy.

Dust Palace isn't bad since you can melt the psions with shotties now, but undying mind is terrible. Too many waves of majors that don't even give glimmer and an annoying boss.
I just saw the VIP rewards trailer, looks good but I forgot if the completion of Year 1 triumphs gives anything. Anyone remembers?
Also, when will it be the day in which crucible and vanguard marks are going to be replaced, sept 1st or 15th? I want to know to spend whatever marks I have that won't convert to commendations.

That's because of community fragmentation, nothing to do with levels. Dragon playlist requires HoW, but not TDB so they can't include TDB Strikes.
There will be no fragmentation among TTK owners since they'll necessarily own TDB+HoW as well. Nothing stops them in this case from a high level playlist with all the Strikes.
I'm going to imagine that the Taken version will be a bigger pain in the ass then it already is.

Adding in taken enemies doesn't qualify as a redesign in my opinion of that's all they do. If they take away the annoying bounce shields forcing you to fight waves of enemies for ten minutes then they can call it a redesign and I'll be pleased. We'll see in September though along with the dust palace redesign.

Giant enemy shank!
I like Dust Palace.
Undying Mind is the only strike I don't like because it feels really lazy. It's structured like the other strikes but at least those pretend you are doing something instead of just constructing a giant visible wall.
"Fuck you! Fight all these yellow bars!"
"Now here's a boss that's pretty much that other boss!"

Ah good point. I'm glad they are unfragmenting because some of this stuff is confusing as a result and makes for a worse experience for those with and without the Dlc.
They're not adding taken enemies. They actually say they're redesigning Undying Mind and two more for Taken King. I believe Dust Palace is one of them.
I hope not. Not looking forward to the Nightfall version if they ever do a nightfall version.
You can actually skip that if you have communication with your fireteam.
Snipe the big goober in the face far from where the first wall spawns.
Once he's dead, run like hell before the wall comes up.
Still a pain to have to get the timing right.

I can't wait to see taken goobers.

Okay, you're right. I looked it up and they are not just updating the Strikes but remixing them while keeping the old ones. The new versions are being tookenfied though.

It's pretty awesome to finish a crucible game and then immediacy be put in a game where my team is losing by 4,000 points. Then when I back out the next game I join the team is losing by 5,000 points. Silky smooth matchmaking.

lol why exactly?
I don't really have a problem with this. I just stick it out. I appreciate that when people on my team leave, they get replaced. Sometimes you gotta be on the other side of the coin.
Welcome! New DGAF Guardian hype!
For real, I felt like the rug was pulled out from under me. Damn they can't tease things like that and then take it back. Titans are sensitive as it is, haha.
I guess we'll just have to wait 3 weeks to find out now.
Yeah, 1 of the 4 new strikes will be PS exclusive. The rotation will get a huge boost, with 3 new strikes + 2 previously PS exclusive ones joining. That means we'll have gone from 5 at launch to 12. Assuming no repeats (lol there will be repeats for sure though) that'd mean months of different Strikes every week.
Currently
Launch (5):
Devil's Lair
The Summoning Pits
Winter's Run
The Nexus
Cerberus Vae III
The Dark Below (1):
Will of Crota
House of Wolves (1):
The Shadow Thief
Joining the rotation:
Former PlayStation Exclusives (2)
Dust Palace
The Undying Mind
The Taken King (3)
Fallen Saber
Shield Brothers
Sunless Cell
I can only imagine what the rotation pie will look like
For newbies, this is what the old rotation was back when it all began

The No Backup Plans sounded so good. Titan Defenders need a good exotic like that to really make them have a PvP presence. It also gave a really good reason (finally) to spec strength.
Now its just 'oh that one perk, yeah its like 7 seconds longer or something...'
Lame.

I think you might be able to double the Taken KIng remixes to that pool, as I think there will be original and taken versions
Lol
I wonder what happened there. Some of the stuff that ends up in the weekly updates have been endlessly confusing to me, from the very beginning.
yaaay.

Undying Mind is great with a good group that understands orb generation, and you can skip almost all of the enemies that don't give glimmer. The boss fight is potentially the best glimmer farming in the game including Gatekeepers.

But your hype is at an all time low?
One exotic modification erases, off the top of my head
double vault space
better faction rewarding
quests for days
bounty for days
pvp nightfall
some story mission in the trailers where you're literally platforming up one of those fuckin towers in cosmodrome
i mean...cahmahn
Great attitude. +1

My problem is I play strikes almost entirely with randoms so instead of being orb city the randoms usually just get wrecked by the hobbies and minotaurs ;p

really annoyed that the majority of exotics are getting left behind. Im completely sick of MMOs constantly invalidating everything, and now my "MMO" is doing it as well
