Y2 Confused

I put in 10 hours yesterday and played everything I could get access to, did the Titan quests, tested prototype weapons (but really, who wants to get their arses kicked in Crucible "testing" lower impact weapons)... yada yada yada... I'll add that I hope there is more for year one players than an emblem and otherwise lame swag of no real use - all year one players with over 500 hours should be gifted something [b]extremely [/b]awesome in Year 2. Anyway, my light did not budge one iota, I hunger for lvl 40... so I'm a bit confused, is this just a rubber match week? Like we get to see a few new weapons, the new menu system, the new vault, 6 pve bounties (oh and those stupid in pve cryptograms) - but nothing counts? The Queens bounties gone? No wolf patrols? No way to ascend your level? I'm a bit confused or stupid or both - can someone splain (or bash me into) to me wtf is going on? Like should I even bother playing at all this week?

    Yes there is hardly anything to do this week but the foundation has been placed for TTK. Once it arrives (if you bought it) there will be plenty to do. Arms day will deliver weapons that you tested, new quests and bounties which will give xp and legendary marks, all existing crucible and vanguard marks will be converted into commendations for faction rep. Pre order bonuses such as Suros arsenal early access, shaders etc will be available. It looks as though there will be varying difficulties for patrols on existing planets too. I am quite looking forward to it despite being on holiday from 12-19th. Forgot to mention, year 1 players (myself included) could not reasonably be given something awesome as that would give them an edge over new players which, as a company wanting profit, is exactly what Bungie/Activision need to attract. Again forgot to mention, the level cap is still 34 until 9/15 when TTK arrives. Until then xp gain probably only counts towards a mote of light as before. The cryptarch sells nothing yet as he would be selling year 2 weapons a week early. The same goes for faction packages and any quest which rewards year 2 gear. You most likely will not receive the reward (or you will and it will be locked out) until 9/15. Faction packages cannot reward much this week as again they should be rewarding year 2 gear including a guaranteed legendary item. Hope this helped a little and feel free to ask anything more specific.

    • short answer to your final question - not really. do some class quests.. stack up 16 completed bounties to turn in AFTER TTK drops.. but aside from that and just clowning around w/ your friends.. yeah.. not much else to do. they pulled the wolves, crippled eris, and jacked w/ the raids.. so yeah.. it's mostly a "look at how much better we made PVP" week for them to show their asses and prove once again that they don't give 2 -blam!-s about PVE. ofcourse you could always run skolas or whatever.. but with the changes they made (crota normal now feels a bit more like hard mode) .. i doubt it would be much fun.

      • Looks like no. If you're getting TTK just wait, otherwise definitely watch carefully to see how the wind blows on destiny.
