I guess what i'm asking is, has anyone seen a class items vendor around, or is that not something that exists?

The speaker will sell them as will the factions and such once TTK comes out proper.

If you are linking to a spoiler, it'd be nice if you could mark it as such.

If you're looking for a kiosk that stores a copy of all the ones you've had, I don't think it exists. As far as I'm aware, this is only available for:

- Emblems/Shaders
- Ships/Sparrows
- Exotic Weapons/Armor

Already posted in this very thread . Too bad thread is moving too fast.

 

[Kyoufu]

Teilhard War still looks the best to me.

Oh yeah, I'm talking about the stairs, I'm sure that gave glimmer for like a week then was nerfed into the ground. I'm probably dreaming though.

Ah gotcha. It's totally possible I didn't play the strike until a week or two after TDB launch and missed that. The strike was still deceptively incredible for glimmer because of the first area and final boss area (which was/is potentially unlimited if you kept the boss alive).

 

[BokehKing]

So to those already in, how's Rift?

Confusing because new maps, would have been easier to play on old maps, with that said.... These maps are great

 

[GhaleonEB]

Add this on top of it:



Guardian, you will now do less damage while still taking a ton of damage. Good times.

TTK armor that has burn resistances will compensate for this and encourage armor specialization. Nightfalls will be less punishing overall, after a while.

Changing my DNS settings to Google Public DNS (8.8.8.8/8.8.4.4) has made my download go about twice as fast.

Before switching it had stalled out at around 4.5 GB.

8 GB downloaded now and 30 minutes left.

Wait, it's gotten even better?? I thought it was pretty fantastic before.

 

[Mindlog]

Anyone know how the new faction work? If I join one and do vangaurd playlists do I get rep for both dead orbit AND vangaurd?

You have to pledge with a faction first for ~2.5k Glimmer. Then you gain rep with both faction and activity at the same time,

Guardian, you will now do less damage while still taking a ton of damage. Good times.

There are new perks that make you more resistant to elemental damage.

 

[Hawkian]

the Sidearm is a fucking savage now.

Which sidearm?

 

[Ophelion]

the Sidearm is a fucking savage now.

Really? Noice! I'm gunna have to try that out when I get home. I liked the sidearm, but it felt a bit peashootery to get a home in any of my loadouts.

 

[Resseh]

Any space for a level 30 for a nightfall?

That's a shame in regards to the class items, I guess i'll just have to earn them again! Thanks for your help guys.

[Daemul]

Thorn is still too good, you can still just spray people to the body, get 3 shots and they're dead.

 

[Akiyama_AE]

Sorry Nolanbot fans, I prefer Dinklebot his deeper voice is better IMO.

 

[KJRage]

the Sidearm is a fucking savage now.

Fantastic news. I already really liked it. Curious what other weapons are much better now.

 

[Seventy_X_Seven]

An I reading the advisor right? "Vanguard Nightfall. Strike playlist. Launches a random nightfall strike."

So no more unified nightfall for the week? And if I get a particularly hard strike and modifier combo what's to stop me from leaving and trying again?

 

[Vilam]

You mean that North is willing to be directed, and Dinklage just came in and read dry for about an hour?

...tales from my ass?

 

[kiguel182]

Since PSN is not collaborating and I'll only be able to play 2.0 tomorrow I have to ask: How is the update? Early impressions and stuff.

 

[Afrocious]

Finally done!

Oh new game icon...and new intro music whaa

loving how the character select screen now shows toons without their masks. my warlocks are on point.

 

[Arrrammis]

I heard somewhere a while ago that changing some settings for your internet can seriously increase download speed on PS4, anyone remember that?

edit: found one setting that took my speed from 24 to 35 Mbps, change the MTU setting to 1473

 

[The Mango Sentinel]

Alright so is there any new shit I can be doing that's not crucible related? Just making sure I'm not missing anything. I saw the new bounties and heard there's a new patrol mission or something.

 

[xVaalbarAx]

Which sidearm?

Vestian Dynasty.

That's what everyone did with the queens wrath story missions. Maybe if you do that too much you get locked out for the week...

You just broke my heart.against full armor?

 

[Hawkian]

...seriously are you guys talking about Vestian Dynasty or Dreg's Promise? lol

Vestian Dynasty.

Word. Always loved it in PvE but if it has a place in the Crucible now so much the grander.

 

[Namikaze1]

Just 6GB left. Download faster, dammit!

 

[Sylas]

Did the overhaul of the original Destiny story go live with this update? I'm tempted to level a warlock just to see if I like what they've done with the missions/quest system before I buy TTK, but I haven't seen any impressions on if the story is more cohesive or anything yet.

 

[def sim]

oh god

In the way that he sounds like a grown man doing an imitation of a young boy's voice. It's not as comedic; just odd.

You should turn off the system completely then turn it back on I just did that and went from 9 hours to an hour. Hopefully that works for you.

 

[X-Frame]

I'm sure this has been asked, but why is there a Nightfall still? Wasn't it supposed to go away?

 

[JTripper]

I hope the subclass quests are going to be immediately available when TKK drops. I just wanna get all 3 for my characters then play through the main questline.

 

[Afrocious]

Goddamn bungie.

They nailed the dreary atmosphere with the music and the new galaxy map.

 

[serenewarfare]

Vestian Dynasty was one of my favorite Y1 weapons. Nice to see it's now a great PvP option.

 

[BokehKing]

What's that word halo fans always say?

Verticality? There is a lot

 

[Mindlog]

There's a quest line for your subclass. I don't know where it's going yet.

You can access the new campaign without deleting a character.

Here's a link for back to back comparison of Nolanybot and Dinklebot:

http://www.polygon.com/2015/9/8/9279755/destiny-peter-dinklage-nolan-north-comparison



It's mostly the script. But I think we are all used to Dinklebot. Sucks that he got replaced. See link above for comparisons

Sounds bad, but probably because I'm so use to Dinklebot. We've Woken the Hive! and Guardian Down! will never sound the same

 

[illiniguy05]

I read that you can go to the Abandoned Quest (?) kiosk and launch it from there. I deleted my rifle, too, so I need to reacquire it, as well.

The AQK (lazy) is down near the advisors, where Xur sometimes lands.

Checked. The quest kiosk and the available quests are all the beginning ones. The final quest is not available. Do I need to roll through the "stranger's" quest line?
