Thanks for the info.
Questions remaining for me:
So much to learn!
- Do target and sacrifice have to be the same type? Helm/helm and sniper/sniper? Or just armor/armor and weapon/weapon? Or can you in fact infuse an armor piece into a weapon?
- Class restrictions- sacrifice Hunter armor to Warlock armor? Class items?
- If the item you're sacrificing to infuse always has to be higher light, doesn't this (via Xeno's paradox) imply that you can NEVER reach max light by infusion?
Bold- this is how Light level actually worked from something like 20-24 at launch to 20-28 as of HoW. The higher your light level, the higher the average light of your rare drops. It was subtle, and no one really cared because basically buying your first legendary boosted you past a threshold by which you could control Light progression all the way to at least the "gel cap," a level or two under requiring raid-tier gear to hit max, which was obviously limited to a single source.
It would definitely make sense to me if it were the case that the higher your light level rose, the better stuff that dropped for you over time.
1. Yes, Same Type and rarity. The difference being that the gun you are infusing has to be the same or weaker than its sacrifice
2. Doesnt look like it. Needs to be in the same SLOT
3. Yes exactly. Infusion is meant to promote BUILD variety. Bringing lower light gear UP to Max light. Its not meant to REACH max light.
Year One's cost 150 marks? I thought they just cost glimmer.

And now the grind for marks begins. How are people wearing full legendary gear already? I am wearing all blue gear minus one level 40 sidearm, 209 light.
No, your old stuff is useless. Just forget about it. Equip blues/legendary from TTK.
Don't waste your time.

The infusion description is,
In the video he sacrifices an auto rifle to boost a scout rifle.

I'm curious about this also. Along with the weeklies as well.

Drops and faction packages..quests etc
Instead of worrying about marks i would encourage people to work through all the content in front of them
The new loot system will slowly catch you up to bigger and better things naturally. Spend marks as you get them every week
You get upgraded just fine

How do you get the sword? And also how do you get the petra quest done? With the Taken Champions amd curious object?

Bumping for interest...

Hah, math got "bro'd"
I just watched on stream that you CAN infuse different weapons. i.e. sidearm to assault rifle... but I asked and they confirmed you can only infuse the same armor types.
Also you can infuse a blue item that has a higher def with a legendary, so quality doesn't matter only def amount
Yeah. My confusion was always about the "higher level" portion. I wanted to specifically know if that meant item level (ie. Level 38 item) or stats (higher attack).

How are you ever going to get gear without Legendary marks though?
goddamnit that's coolSword bros!
Fascinating. Sacrificing legendaries to make stronger rares. Mass hysteria!

Hell yeah. New best special weapon aside from snipers.

Weapons do level up, and their damage with them, is that what you're asking?
I just got to 235 from two blues that dropped from the Shield Brothers.
I think so, also you can probably infuse another weapon onto it to push up the Damage Stat ...

Whoa a purple dropped from a strike boss. Is this what Destiny is now?
Sorry Year2 Exotics. I thought Year1 cost exotic shards, sorry don't remember and at work.

What I've learned about Rift is there are some people that know what the hell is going on and there are some that have no clue. Oh yeah plus spawn trapping. Good try though Bungie.
Yes that is exactly what I am wondering.
Is 280 the top end damage?
I also got a chest piece from Dead Orbit that started with 240 defense where as the one they are selling is 280.

Naw
310 is the highest right now but it may even be higher than that
Also Legendary marks are a new currency and are far more valuable so yeah. The gear that is bought with them is higher but you wont be able to suit up completely on marks alone.
It will be far more efficient to play the game and complete the content.

It looks to be both level and stat, but those should be linked. Since it has to be the same rarity level, I don't think you will end up with a level 36 auto rifle with higher attack than a level 40 auto rifle. So your higher stat item should always be equal to or higher level than the target of the infusion. Once everything is level 40, it shouldn't matter and then it is just a matter of having a higher stat to sacrifice to a lower one, eg. lvl 40 290 attack for a lvl 40 280 attack weapon.

I'm so jealous right now. I went on my friends list and saw probably more than I wanted to on there alone so I said eff it. Everything can't get spoiled and went to this last page. I'm dying!
Gamestop still has it here.. Maybe get it tonight but it'd be the worst night since I have an 11 hour trip tomorrow that involves a 4.5 mile hike.

I think all of those guys have been playing since 5 AM so probably just farming chests on the Dreadnaught. That's just my assumption though.

Doesn't look like "the same" attack/defense will work, and same slot but NOT the same type. Primary, Secondary, and Heavy for weapons, each armor slot, ghost, artifact, class item.
That's confusing and possibly contradictory, lol. I'm asking- how do you bring an item to max light if you must always use an item with higher light to infuse it, but it doesn't actually reach the higher light level as a result (i.e. 200+210=208)? Maybe if you get within a certain range of a few light points it does max it out...
I imagine we won't know for a bit.
goddamnit goddamn you
