Event: Iron Banner • Added larger maps into the rotation. Event: Trials of Osiris • Trials of Osiris will now be available all days of the week. Activities Strikes • Weekly Nightfall Strikes now supports matchmaking. Prison of Elders • Added optional matchmaking for levels 32 and 34. Raids • Fixed many bugs and exploits. • An optional version of raids without these changes and fixes will be available to those guardians who wish to continue playing them in their current state. However, they will not provide rewards. • All encounters at the Templar boss location in the Vault of Glass can no longer be completed with guardians standing on the opposing ledges. All guardians will be teleported to the encounter location. • During the Atheon encounter in the Vault of Glass if he is unable to send a guardian through time he will become invulnerable to damage until his next attempt. • Atheon has improved his balance and should be no longer fall off his domain. However, just in case he does, he has implemented safety measures to ensure he will be teleported back to his original location after falling. • During The Abyss encounter in Crota's End it now requires three guardians to stand on the plate to start forming the bridge. This is to prevent a raid group from having only one guardian complete the encounter for everyone. • The Bridge encounter in Crota's End will now function slightly different. If a guardian attempts to cross the gap without a fully formed bridge said guardian will meet an untimely demise. • During The Bridge encounter in Crota's End it will now be required to have all living guardians across the bridge before the second phase of the encounter begins. Once the second phase begins any living guardians who have not yet crossed the bridge or revived without crossing will be annihilated by the Annihilation Totems. For every guardian killed by an Annihilation Totem another will die on the opposing side of the bridge. • For the Crota encounter, hive enemies will be more aggressive. User Interface Inventory • Just in time for The Taken King expansion we are very pleased to announce we have completely overhauled the inventory system for Destiny. No longer will you need to use external measures such as the Destiny app or the Destiny Inventory Manager extension in order to manage your inventory. You will now have nearly unlimited inventory space and it will be shared between all of your characters. The vault will still be available to keep your inventory from being too cluttered. We will have more to show about this in the coming weeks! • Gear loadouts. You will now be able to set loadouts for your armor and weapons. With the press of a couple buttons you may switch to a preset gear loadout. These can be used at any time but will not activate until your next respawn. • We have revamped out the directional buttons function. Each directional button will prompt a radial menu. Pressing the right directional prompts a menu for different emotes to choose from. Down will prompt a menu for consumable items such as ammo synths. Left will bring up your gear loadout menu. Weapon Reforging To continue our efforts with keeping a well forged weapon balance within Destiny we have removed some of the weapon perks you were once able to obtain. In order to keep it a fun and fair experience for all we will be removing those perks from weapons that still have them. They will be replaced with their similar counterparts. For example, hammer forged on a shotgun may be replaced with rifled barrel. Items Currency • Glimmer cap has been raised to 50,000. • Judgement's chance can now be purchased with two of any cores. (One of each, or two of the same.) • Tokens of Flight, Identity and Judgement can be used for any reputation gains.[/quote] This is a requote

  • Your nerfings/buffing are too harsh. Just ease up a little. Range makes all the difference.

    • I know it's fake but this is just how "you" want to see it. I will point out that your veiw is mainly flawed and biased Example you want blink to only be used once before its cool down, that is probably because you have been countered several times by someone using blink. But by cutting it in half you are limiting the people who use it for getting around a map. Yes on the odd occasion a player will use it as an escape/counter and sometimes they will win but suck it up. Having an unlimited inventory space will demand a lot from the game unfortunately the inventory space can only be equal to that of the platforms performance capabilities. Shot guns are supposed to be powerful that being said yes on some the range for them is broken Your damage increase/decrease are completely off and will furthermore add to the already unbalanced way of pvp So I conclude while on some I completely agree, but honestly you are just a butthurt cry baby, that may or may not be good, but try to understand code and the fact that tempering with a section can just as easily screw a different section so it is always a battle

          • If these changes happened I would quit. There were a few okay ones but most were horrible or unnecessary ideas.
