Had great story missions and FINALLY brought to life the Vanguard leaders and even a little to the Amanda Holiday. Made the year 2 strikes no longer a wait 3 waves and then continue. Plus switches up what enemies u face. Can gain reputation faster for NM, FWC, and DO. AND YES THIS IS TRUE! Farm strange coins and turn them into xur for heavy snyths and turn those in for rep. Gained 5 levels with 113 coins. Year 1 i was at rank 71 with dead orbit 9 with FWC and 3 with New Monarchy. Now 74 DO, 9 with FWC, and 61 with NM. and its only been 6 months. New Destination with mysteries and interesting lore about the Hive. Plus heavy swords which are bad ass! The raid was a huge improvement over CE and PoE. Not drops just how the raid mechanics. Will get to drops later. New subclasses are amazing love being a sith lord. Strike specific gear was a great addition. 3oC's was a great addition. Drop rates for me are usually one out of 10. Huge fan of the Omolon weapons Lastly thanks to No time to explain year 2 players got to experience VoG, the best raid still, if they choose to complete the quest that is. Now negatives.....ugh New Light level system is garbage! Did nothing but increase the grind and cause more frustration then EVER! Raid drops are garbage except the LMG. Plus u turned raiding from hope i get said weapon to hope i get this light level. Raid weapons suck Still only 1 exotic gear piece for new subclasses. Exotics are not as memorable. Rng is worse then ever Nightfall rep nerf drop nerf no longer glowing heads No ascend weapons to year 2. Which btw this is a bullshit thing! Deej said who wants to use a weapon for 10 years? Well if that was the case then Year 2 Red Death, TLW, MIDA, Truth, and the other year 1 exotics that came to TTK wouldnt exist. So -blam!- that bull shit reason! Primaries with elements was taken out was stupid! No new content for PVE PVP is in the worst state since launch. The timing of Refer a Friend Removal of re-rolling weapons Nerfing of Sunbreakers was beyond ridiculous. I main a warlock and use lock only for pvp and I think it was way too much. Trials is not as rewarding as it was year 1. After 6 months there is truly nothing to do. Ive ran raid over 40 times between 2 locks and was only able to get a 320 ghost because of crimson days. Again -blam!- the new light system.
