Seriously Bungie, bring back Etheric Light.

-
Bump again. :)

Still waiting for an answer.

It was the only way to guarantee increasing your guardian stats weekly. I would start playing again, I'm really tired of not get anything good when I do play.

Agreed, change the system back with some real important tweaks Read my post here: [url]https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/190877384/0/0[/url]

I've been saying this since the ttk released. Etheric light was a better system. This new infusion makes the grind worse than anything in year 1. I suggest they remove all light values from gear, ghosts, and artifacts. Leave attack value on weapons. Gear should be distinguished from perks not from its light level

4 RepliesIt's unbelievable how long they have let this game bleed out. It's almost impressive how much fun they have taken [b]out[/b] of the game. This game reeks, and and they have let it linger for months. Honestly, nothing in D2 will be good enough to make up for this. They have to start giving the remaining hopefuls [u]something[/u] to hold on to. A simple [i]hey, we know you guys hated _____ and we are working as fast as we can to get rid of it,[/i] would mean a lot.

4 RepliesEtheric Light made all content relevant and respected the player's prior time and effort. The current Infusion system makes only a small handful of content relevant, makes loot a dual-RNG grindfest over the course of months, and it completely invalidates time spent in Year 1. It doesn't take a genius to figure out which system worked better, Bungie.

It's time you fixed your monumental -blam!- up Bungie.
-
You know what? I take it back. Destiny is dead. I hope other games that gave us a serious lack of content in the last two years die with it. This "They will throw money at the screen." bullshit needs to end. The industry needs to see that selling us an incomplete game only to sell us the portions you ripped out of it later is not only a bad idea but potentially dangerous to the longevity of your company. I bought Destiny to "Become Legend" only to "Become pissed off" when Bungie and Activision tried to nickel and dime me to death. This game is dead. Leave it where it lay so it can grow rank and putrid as an example of how you shouldn't approach game development.

8 RepliesHey, Cozmo. Why was Etheric Light removed from the weekly Rank 3 packages from Variks? Is this a bug that will go unresolved for months before it finally gets acknowledged?

1 ReplyPepperidge farms remembers the etheric light system (bump)

I preferred the etheric light method much more than the current method.

2 RepliesA "holdup" is the exact reason they're not - as in "holdup the player by increasing grind for the sake of grind". You still had to work for Etheric Light - but it was a true reward in and of itself that served a definite and measurable purpose (though as a PVE-only player I would have loved there to be one or two more avenues to acquire it in the run of a week, but I digress). Going to post the link to a new Forbes article here too (already did it in another thread) as it pertains directly to this topic: http://www.forbes.com/sites/insertcoin/2016/02/08/why-destinys-economy-shouldnt-remain-rooted-in-infusion/#e92a6e270655 Two relatively well-written articles via Forbes in one week? I know ... it's a bit unsettling.

This post I made a while back is a list of things that need to happen with explanation and it's directed at new CEO Mr. Parsons. With the state of the community, this list stays relevant right now so I'm not trying to spam it, we just need to keep it trending with the goal of it making a difference (pie in the sky I'm sure). Etheric Light is one of my main focus points. https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/188868653/0/0/1

So you still feel the way you did say 4-5 mo this ago? Fun y to see you still here. This fame is a lost cause. Let it go already.

1 ReplyI completely agree. You could actually CUSTOMIZE and create your guardian with all types of weapons and gear from ANY event in the game. It gave reasons to grind and that was the reward. Now it sucks. People don't seem to understand that based on the replies which is some bullshit!

4 RepliesNOOOOO DONT i hated it. just farming PoE for that crap. hell no
-
10 RepliesEthric light made old stuff relevant and i think thats what we all truly want here
-
4 RepliesBungie also appears to have removed Etheric Light from the PoE rank 3 weekly packages from Variks. Two weeks in a row and my weekly package had no Etheric Light in it. Always had one before, but not now.

If only they could just make a tiered ascension... would solve any problem of going from "just hit 40" to "now im hard mode ready". Past year 1, 5 tiers is all they'd need. 170 (+50) 220 (+40) 260 (+30) 290 (+20) 310 (+10) 320. Seems like much less of a grind than infusion makes it, but still enough of a grind so you aren't max light first week like HoW was for some people. We all know they looooove multiple upgrade materials, so fun times making those.

1 ReplyEdited by TautSkydiver0: 2/10/2016 4:55:40 AM2 reasons: A) Bring back etheric light makes the game a little more FUN B) Bungie doesn't want to bring etheric light back because that is not the way THEY want us to play Destiny. What I just can't understand is Bungie's fetish over "diversity" and "people using different guns", yet they do not implement etheric light. This would make the game much more diverse and every guardian unique.
