Patch 1.0.2: Discuss here ~ How do you feel?

The new patch will be arriving shortly for us, and just in time! I am curious to see how the community feels about it, so I decided to make a major thread for C&C. Personally I, highly agree with this patch! I was happy with the last, and this one goes with it nicely. I'll now be very happy when receiving legendary engrams! Even blues now I guess. Only thing is, people have already found many new farming "caves". So next week, when this patch goes live, expect to see a lot of 29s when they start racking up the shards lol. In case you missed the patch notes, I'll paste it here for you in courtesy of Bungie! [quote]The 1.0.2 patch will go live next week, and includes several changes to the Cryptarch and Engram experience. These changes guarantee that Engrams will always decode into items at or above the quality of an engram. Only Engrams that drop after 1.0.2 are subject to this change. Cryptarch Changes  Cayde-6 took the Cryptarch aside and showed him a sack of doorknobs. He decoded that mystery pretty quickly. Legendary Engrams will always produce Legendary or better quality items, including Materials or Exotics Rare Engrams will always produce Rare or better quality items Rare engrams will have an increased chance to produce Legendary quality items Activity Changes Daily Heroics, Weekly Heroics, and Vanguard: Tiger Playlist activities will include Rare and Legendary Engrams in addition to their existing rewards Item Changes Ascendant materials have been promoted to Legendary to closer associate them with the gear they are used to upgrade Legendary Engram items that exist in your inventory will be demoted to Rare quality when the patch goes live, so decode them while you can. But let’s be honest--even if you don’t, we all know they were blues already...[/quote]

  • You know what I'm afraid of though.... Say before the patch it was: 4 hr playtime average 25 blue engrams and 4 legendary engrams (I KNOW THESE AREN'T THE ACCURATE NUMBERS!) and then only 1 would turn into an actual legendary so you would have: 4 hrs played = 28 blues and 1 legendary And now AFTER the patch it will be: 4 hr playtime average 28 blues and 1 legendary. Since it will now actually turn into a legendary, the odds will STILL be the same, meaning we will simply see a lot LESS legendary engrams, and have the exact same outcome as before.
