I have no idea, too many things in the air that are completely unclear

90s R&B Tax - Montell Jordan - Get It On Tonite
I've had no problem using shotguns in most PvE encounters so far, but their light level was comparable to my own.
Very pleased that most activities aren't giving faction rep. Doing so has made holding a faction edge much easier.
Going to buy 300 heavy ammo packs to roll over a faction 5 times with each character.
Nice compromise after resetting marks. Another classy move Bungie.
Very pleased with the design of subclass quests. Really hope it pays off in the long run.
Top 3 places to complete subclass quests.
Need to generate orbs or kills with abilities? Venus monster closet
Need kills with super in a Strike? Will of Crota
Need to generate orbs or kill majors with a super in a Strike? Undying Mind - Note that majors throughout the beginning of the Strike will not count. However, the majors that spawn during the boss encounter do count for the bounty. They spawn twice in two groups of 8 so everyone can easily complete their quest in one attempt. This is also a great place for Glimmer.

Interesting about the PoE cloak, my existing Kellhunters's Hood from POE is only 3 defense. Same for my Warlock and Titan class items.
I've got the lvl 34 Ghost from the speaker already thanks. Class items from vendors in the tower are only 140 Defense for me.
I've seen a bunch of those 180 warlock bonds but I didn't get one from Ikora when speaking with her on my Warlock. I got a much lower defense bond. I'm working through the class quest on my Hunter now and I was given a Furious Cloak at 160 defense and that is the highest I've found so far.

You have to factor in how much easier/organic these bounties are though. 3 precision kills with any weapon for 3K is much better than 15 sniper headshot kills for 5K. It doesn't force me into a play style I'm not comfortable with and I can still complete my bounties without spending match after match struggling on those old long-winded ones.
I think I was hammered and fell asleep like Kyoufu said.
but like year one we haven't completed main quest to get the 5k bounties!

I mean not literally and I'm not making a big deal about it. I jumped on last night and was like cool quests so I did that one. I didn't realize it would give XP.

Yep. Stage 3 of a subclass quest gives a class item for light.
Titans - 160 light
Hunter - 160 light
Warlocks - 180 light
Bungie just loves Warlocks.
(Shotgun nerf turning the meta into shotgun-melee is a stealth buff to Warlocks, too)

Alright looked more into the database, this time looked for armor.
So Iron Banner armor has changed, while the Trials armor is the same. Both armors have the same special perks available, be it Arc,Solar, and Void recovery. And they also have The Arc,Void, and Solar armor
Huh?

It was probably for that tweet Luke smith made saying he would have his last two weapons using motes of light, now we know he was just using them for XP
Is the last bounty step for the subclasses always kill in heroic? If so I'll just leave that step till reset, kill two birds

if you are talking about Faction Rep, it's still there but hidden until you Pledge Alligience to a Faction and that particular Faction Rep shows up again for that Faction but the other two remain hidden until you switch

So I take it all of the class armor materials are obsolete when TTK hits. So should I wait to turn them in once TTK hits, or just do it now and get a ton of DO rep. Can you exchange them the new armor material?
I think it'll even out. People who don't even play PVP are trying it out for the novelty, and there are tire-kickers playing who haven't played since September of last year.
Once the fairweathers fade out, and non-tryhards get used to the mode, it'll be more competitive, I think.
Also, it helps to not care if you lose. =) Still get the marks and loot rolls.
I have the Digital Legendary version of Destiny (That came with the expansion pass and pre-orders) and now the Digital $40 TTK expansion. I can see the Weapons Pack and SUROS Arsenal Pack in my PS4 library as installed but it has a countdown to the release of TTK and I have not gotten the items from the postmaster like everyone else. *The Shader and emblem from SUROS. I have tried "Clearing my PS4 cache", restoring licenses and making sure I've downloaded all "Free" items related to Destiny. Guess I'm stuck waiting till the 15th.
Do NOT do that. On 9/15 all class armor mat will be exchangeable for the general armor mat
Always Luke Smith that bastard
Having a ton of my neglected guns fully ranked though was a lovely victory last night mind.
The patch notes states that you can exchange current materials for new ones when TTK goes live. I would save them and keep them for upgrading and use other items like Heavy Ammo synths for rep instead.

I am also not getting the suros weapon pack! I have preordered the taken king game and it said i get the suros weapon pack as a bonus
Since they'd said we couldn't get TTK weapons this week, i purposely didn't open the suros package at the postmaster because I figured it wouldn't give me the weapons. I was pleasantly surprised to see the emblem & shader in my collection though.
For the people that opened the package, I'm sure they'll fix it next week either way.

same here. I find it odd that some people get early access while others don't
I thought that the PSN preorder was part of the early access, meh gotta wait till Tuesday
It certainly does atm.
Thanks for the info!

That's what i was guessing. I must have missed that when I read the patch notes. I didn't do any of that yet because I figured something like that will be available.
Mine was unchanged, so I don't know what's going on with yours.
I only lost some Cryptarch rep.

So I am working on the Voidwalker sub-class quest, but is there also one for Sunsinger?
When does that unlock?

Awww Yissss. My mange.
I'm in the same boat though I haven't tried to do anything about it. Just noticed the countdown and that I didn't have anything in the Postmaster last night. Only checked one character though.
Go to tower with sunsinger equipped

I can't believe they built a whole PvP mode around shotguns and the new maps are all blind corners and alcoves for camping. So many dead ends too. Maybe a round with gaffers will help, but right now I'm done with rift.
Great post.

Would have post this before update 2.0 but I just found it.
For all the the new people coming to destiny this video depicted the pain and the glory the Veterans went though and how we got where we are today. And for the Vets that watch this video, you would be lying if this video didnt make you take a trip down memory lane through out each section on the video lool.

Enjoy

Welcome back! Perfect timing haha
Saw you play some Rift on Zoba stream. I was not jealous at all! Looked like a good time regardless of mercy haha
I love pretty much all the changes in 2.0.
The systems really seem way more straightforward and easy to understand. You still have light guiding you but know in a more subtle and less demanding way.
Also, the quest system seems like a way better way to contextualize your missions and present a clear path forward.
I only played a couple matches of Rift but liked what I played too. I did pretty badly in those matches since I barely know the layout of the new maps but it was fun. It's also great to have another objective based game.
I still have to start my first alt but, so far, really like the changes. Now all that's left it's all the new content.

Now I need to know the changes and why it changed.
I need a detail post-mortem on this thing badly. Like a full on documentary at this point.

Man hunter orb generation is pathetic. You get 2 orbs bladedancing where other classes would get 4. Smh.

Bounties and Crucible give you faction
Quests are giving you XP you're wasting if you're at 34. I'd personally rather edge another level, especially considering I got 400 rep in 30 minutes of playing.
