Hi Destiny-GAF!
I've been away since vanilla and tried to get back in just yesterday with the complete TTK package. And I'm a little confused. I knew about the light level change etc, but most of the other stuff is new to me, while I also forgot a lot from vanilla. Also note that I actually am one of those who played like 75% versus MP and 25% all the rest.
I'm not playing the english version of the game so bare with me when I use different terms, I'll try to make myself clear.
1. Sooo. Where are the dailies again? Those on the bottom-left? Because I have one "Search" active which requires to do a Crucible (?, versus MP) daily and I did a few games from the bottom-left playlist and I got no further with that Search. Can't find anything else. I win those legendary marks through the dailies only, right?
We have daily crucible and daily story. For both you get awarded legendary marks for the first completion every day per account. Then you have Weekly crucible and weekly heroic strikes. Both give you legendary marks x3 every week per account. Though I think weekly crucible requires wins, while daily only requires participation. The weekly heroic strikes also give you a guaranteed legendary engram per character per week. The nightfall gives rewards (not legendary marks) for every character for the first completion.
From memory, I think the order is Weekly Crucible/Daily Crucible/Daily story/Weekly Heroic/Nightfall
2. Also, in what order should I be doing all those DLC missions? Are they easily found through the galaxy map? I think there was one DLC mission on some planet which wasn't highlighted at all, looked as if I had done it already, which I haven't. Can I do most of them alone (except strikes etc which pair me up with others automatically) at Level 30 / Light ~145?
You will get to most missions when you follow the questlines. You can do all story missions solo. They're all pretty easy, except for Fear's embrace. Just look at the required level, that is pretty much the right order. You will probably hit level 40 by the time you have completed all the story missions.
3. My year 1 gear seems to be worthless now, is it so? What shall I do with that stuff? I think I saw some exotic weapon at a vendor which had like double the damage my weapon (fully upgraded) of the same kind had... I don't get it. I loved my Ice Breaker, should I go and scrap it for parts if I get the chance to get the year 2 Ice Breaker for example?
You can keep some of your Y1 stuff. Ice breaker, for example, is great for trials with the special ammo change. Ghorn is still great for year 1 content. For year 2 content you want to use year 2 stuff (indicated by the taken king symbol on the item icon). If you have year 1 exotics that have a Y2 version, you can buy the Y2 version at the blueprint kiosk for legendary marks.
4. There also seem to be a lot new resource items I won't list now.. What are the most important ones, what has changed?
Uuuuh, didn't play Y1 destiny, so I don't know what has changed. All I know is you can exchange the Y1 raid materials at the speaker for glimmer/motes.
5. The Addon would added new subclasses, yeah? When and how will I get access to them?
You get the subclasses while doing the taken king story line. It's a mission you pick from the "worldmap". You get a quest for it, it's unmissable.
6. Any tips on what weapons to buy / save for? I don't know which ones are popular at the moment. Especially for versus, but also for strikes and missions (I don't do raids).
The Hung Jury SR4, which can be bought from the dead orbit guy at rank 3 for legendary marks is a great (pve) weapon. You get a great sniper (pve & pvp) from the quest "Taken War: Earth" (1000 yard stare) and you get a great shotgun from some other quest (conspiracy theory D). Black spindle is great for the raid. Doctrine of Passing is great for pvp. KF Raid HMG is a great HMG.
For story missions/strikes you can pretty much use anything you want. I enjoy using hard light, red death, etc. For pvp, you can use last word, mida, doctrine, gunsmith weapons, etc.
7. I'm sure I forgot something, so feel free to tell me what else I should know.
Thanks in advance to anyone willing to answer =)
