Can anyone explain TTK pre-order bonuses?

So I was planning on pre-ordering TTK to make sure I snag all of the bonus content, which I assumed was the Suros Weapon Pack, and the VIP Rewards (shader, sparrow, emblem), but now after looking at the pre-order FAQ, I am completely confused. 1. It seems that since I never bought Dark Below, I simply CAN'T pre-order the Taken King?? That seems odd... Why would you lock potential customers out of a pre-order because they didn't buy a completely different product from you? From the FAQ: " What if I only own one of the two previous DLCs? You need both The Dark Below and House of Wolves to qualify for Destiny: The Taken King – Digital Edition " 2. Regarding bonuses, it seems like there is no actual bonus for pre-ordering?? According to the FAQ, everything you receive with the pre-order would be awarded to anyone who simply purchased the stand-alone expansion on Day 1: " Does this affect my ability to qualify for the weapon pack offers? All Day 1 Taken King players will automatically qualify for additional weapon pack offers. How do I qualify for VIP Rewards? Destiny players who have reached light level 30 or who previously purchased Expansion I and Expansion II by August 31, 2015, will receive an exclusive commemorative Founder's Fortune year 1 Emblem, Sparrow, Armor shader and more at launch with your purchase of The Taken King. *To be eligible to receive the VIP rewards, players will need to have at least one light level 30 character or own both expansion I and expansion II on or before 08/31/15 and purchase and play The Taken King on or before 02/01/16. VIP rewards applicable only for eligible purchase of Destiny: The Taken King, Destiny: The Taken King - Legendary Edition, and Destiny: The Taken King - Collector's Edition (Digital or Physical). " Am I reading this wrong, or is there no actual bonus or benefit to pre-ordering, other than, I don't know, pre-loading? What am I missing here? So if I just go to the PS store on TTK launch day and download it, I get everything?

  • Hi JeetKuneLo, 1.- All content up to this point is required to play The Taken King. https://www.bungie.net/7_Destiny-The-Taken-King-pre-order-FAQ/en/Help/Article/13072 It would be weird for Oryx coming to kill you for doing nothing right? 2.- You can get the Suros Arsenal Pack and if you purchase the $40 standalone digital version of The Taken you will also be able to buy the digital Collectors Edition items (3 Exotic Class, 3 Shaders and 3 Emotes) for an extra $20. Note that this bundle will be available for purchase on September 15. 3.- Not everyone will have access to the VIP rewards, you still need to meet the requirements to get them in which one of the requirements states a deadline on 08/31/15.
