I hope Strength becomes a more worthwhile stat in TTK. right now it's a useless stat
Also think about being a sitting duck in the air as you're sniped almost immediately.
I don't think so. A lot of situations where it saves you from dying mid-super animation in pvp. Yes Eternal Warrior is crap tier, but less so than this IMO.
Going to guess this is an exotic shotgun based on the reload animation alone.
I know we've seen it a handful of times already, and there has been talk about it being an exotic, but we didn't know for sure. To me, this seals the deal.
Yep, and in one of those Game Informer gameplay vids for the new PVP maps they were using it and it had a Tex Mechanica logo on it + plus it seems to shoot slugs instead of pellets. Should be a fun gun to use.

Sweet never realised it was iron banner left my character in orbit whilst making dinner, came back and bought everything
Yeah, trying to think of situations where this would be useful and I can't seem to find one. Why would you want to be a huge sitting duck floating in the air? Definitely worthless for PvP. Seems like a garbage exotic to me.

Looks like it might be the remixed year 2 Fourth Horseman.

so basically you are a floating target
FUUUUUUUU K
Iron Banana caught me by surprisemissed reset rep glitch.
Thanks for the PoE Ambutious. Finally got that Gulrot Grimoire
Sure. I'm gonna do it two more times, if you want to join.
But now you can be a Titan floating target, and not a filthy casual Warlock.
When someone pops angel of light in PvP literally everyone stops what they're doing and unloads a clip into them - on both teams.

Hunter and Warlock gloves for ToO both have the Hand Cannon and Heavy Weapon increased reload speed perks. This is the combo I've been waiting for...just don't know if I have it in me to do more ToO this week.

the helmet is underwhelming. but it is universal and not tied to any subclass. I wouldn't expect another saint-14. that just so happens to be the best exotic for the best subclass in Destiny. hard to match or surpass that. I would like more exotics that aren't tied to specific perks or subclasses. I like stuff like kepris sting (even though I never used it) because it allows for more builds.
it also looks cool and will look good with any armor or shader
-2 cents

Just think how useful it''ll be against Urrox! Those weapon cores and Etheric light will be ours every 4 weeks!

This wouldn't sting so much if Exotics were upgradable. Eternal Warrior is bad, but so what? I have Helm of Saint-14. But I doubt S14 is coming to Year 2. So let's hope the others are good. This may be Year 2's equivalent to Vanilla's Insurmountable Skullfort and we'll hope for a new good helms like S14.

Closer to what the 4th horsemen was before it launched.
Originally the 4th horseman was supposed to fire all 4 barrels simultaneously. However, Bungie realize how absolutely crazy that would be in PvE so they arranged to fire 5 bullets rapid fire... Despite it having 4 barrels.

Middle row perks of that Felwinters are mediocre/poor, has injection mold which is absolutely awful on shotguns. At least you won't get sniped by people who use this one without rerolling it.
Edit: in the same tower as my name is byf, there's a group of people just dancing around him.

So we shouldn't want useful exotics that compliment a certain style or encounter? I'm confused.
lol
Well the text says "fly like the shadows" I wonder if you get cloaked while using that? Doubt it though.

That titan helmet is gorgeous. Destiny has some wonderful design. The perks on the other hand...is this going to be the future? Just kind of "meh" stuff on Exotics? Bungie really wants us not just roll over content...it's such an odd mentality to me.

seems sort of useful in PVE. get that height and stay out of danger for a bit. never used angel of light in PVP so I have no idea how good it is. cant imagine its very good thuogh
I think I saw somewhere that we will be getting a Y2 Saint-14, but don't quote me on that.

Where is the PSN link for the Destiny: The Taken King Legendary Edition? The only one I am seeing is the Digital collectors edition which is 20 more dollars than the retail. Which I don't want.
I would just get the retail but I have some credit I would like to use on PSN.

Xur better tease some Hunter exotics today.
It's not up yet.... will be up close to the launch date.
That's the way I see it. I don't think we will ever see anything on the level of Saint -14 / Ram in terms of dominance.
I bet you can't wait to use your shank burn guns on the new Fallen strike boss.
There is currently no digital version of the Legendary Edition. It might exist once the expansion launches but otherwise I don't think they want people to be able to buy everything for $60 and start playing now. They want you to pay more until 9/15.

Interesting. Though looking at it again, the red light makes it look like Invective as well and we know for sure that there's a year 2 version of it. It'd be a pretty bad ass weapon if they combined their perks!

That new mission looks like it will have a ton of airborne bits....
The US$60 tier with everything is confirmed to be available digitally after launch.

no, I didnt say that. im just trying to keep an open mind in what they will present in TTK. just interested in trying new things and new builds. I havnt gone into a PVE encounter without saint 14 in I dont know how long. I wanna try new things. and even though this helmet is kind of useless. I like where there going with new exotics.
This looks good with any armor or shader?
Please tell me this is a joke post.

I meant the new titan helm. not the stings. those are ugly as sin. and not the fun sins

Cool, I did not know this.
I figured you would be able to get everything digitally for $60 on 9/15 one way or the other to match the physical version.

Almost every Titan exotic armor follows a pattern.
See, while Hunters and Warlock get crazy unique stuff, almost every Titan exotic is: Here, take this subclass talent you already had access to.
Notable offenders:
Innermost Light
Armamentarium (warlock talent)
Eternal Warrior
No Backup Plans
SkullFort (warlock talent)
Glasshouse
etc...
The most unique Titan exotic is Saint-14, and that's because it is entirely unique. There is nothing really like it unless you count blinding grenades.

Being up off the ground is by it's nature situational. And unless we're no longer playing an FPS, being airborne makes it harder to accurately fire your gun and makes you an easy fully exposed target. Those aren't going to change.
So yeah, there's some conjecture about cool ways to use it, like throwing hammers while floating above looking down on everyone with disdain. Or maybe some raid mechanic. But basic FPS gameplay says it's usually not a great idea to be in the air, motionless for extended periods.
