*sees Luke smiths* Twitter *throws money at screen
-
But wait, weasel codes will end the streak yay
-
I mentioned a stacking like buff that increased the more strikes you did a long time ago. I'm happy something like this is being implemented as it might make the grind for that one thing you want (cough hopscotch) less stressful.
-
All sounds awesome. Did they get a new guy who gets good ideas ?

I'm at work so I lightly dropped a quarter on my phone screen...
-
Biggest news in Luke Smith's twitter: Helm of Saint-14 returns for year 2. Titans rejoice!
-
In a related note: KTO events still happening.
-
Just read tweets.... St 14!!!
-
If accurate, these are all pieces of great news... especially the first two bullets.
-
Handcannons can now roll firefly!
-
I like the Strike Streak concept... very interesting....
-
Destiny servers cannot support a "streak" of any kind.

Edited by xvRavage: 9/2/2015 3:10:40 AMAlso Xur will have new items. 1. Legacy engrams: decode into random year 1 exotic (not sure if it includes every single exotic, even raid exclusives) 2. Three of Coins: a consumable that increases exotic drop chance from your next boss kill.

Oh come on forum folk, look at what's happening to the game already. Everything, and I mean everything, I have read about the new game mechanics is designed to keep us playing for longer. It's not sustainable, I can see many people not keeping up and leaving. Don't get me wrong, I'm looking forward to the ttk but I'm not being taken in by slick marketing about ' improvements' bungee have just altered the shape and size of the hook!
-
Do you know that the dust palace will give you the hunter cloak?
-
I read this as steaks. now I'm hungry
-

Austin approves of this message
-
Helm of Saint 14 will actually have a year two version.
-
Check other posts by Luke and Mark. They're explaining how Legendaries and Legendary marks work, some info about Xur, etc. Mote of Light used to level up equip. Good thing I've got hundreds of them stored! Love the changes, I think I'm just going to freeze myself for next 2 weeks.
-
The strike streak has already been around tho. If you just keep playing without exiting orbit, after a certain number of strikes, legendary engrams and rewards are more likely to drop.
-
Blacksmith on Celestial Nighthawk and Praxic Fire??! <3
-
We'll see how RNG us affected. I play strikes in a row anyway.
-
Sweet. I've really been enjoying "grinding" strikes lately. Turn off game volume, crank up some Parkway Drive, equip Invective and run around blasting everything in the face for a couple hours.
-
Read the topic as "strike steak" I'm like wtf is that what they're real going to call the new strike play list? Needless to say I was confused and now a little hungry.
