HoW Stream Recap (4/22)

Here are some of the main points I took away. Please add in the comments what I forgot and I'll add it! - You can [b]upgrade ANY legendary weapon to 365 attack[/b] damage but it will require Etheric Light (obtainable in Prison of Elders, Trials of Osiris, Iron Banner, and Nightfall) and it does NOT reset your current upgrades [url]http://i.imgur.com/HQ9wMss.png[/url] - You can [b]upgrade ANY legendary armor to 42 light (level 34 with all pieces max) [/b]but it will require Etheric Light (obtainable in Prison of Elders, Trials of Osiris, Iron Banner, and Nightfall) and it does NOT reset your current upgrades. [b]CONFIRMED: Stated at 42:05 in the video linked below Chris says "Every legendary piece weapon and piece of armor in the game can now be upgraded from any release" [/b][url]http://i.imgur.com/8jeE81Z.png[/url] - You can [b]upgrade exotics (including the Vex Mythoclast) and it only requires an exotic shard, weapon parts, and glimmer anytime no Xur needed[/b] [url]http://i.imgur.com/1ukWk0J.png[/url] - You can now [b]reforge/reroll weapons obtained from the HoW DLC[/b] at the Gunsmith (old weapons are not capable) This WILL reset progress [url]http://i.imgur.com/NDiWlau.png[/url] - Trials of Osiris will be a Friday - Reset ONLY activity - Prison of Elders will have a weekly reset but will be dynamic and events will differ weekly (not much info here yet) - [b]Variks (House of Judgement) will bring "Prison of Elders" rewards and rank items[/b] (ships, shaders, class items) and will have a predictable weekly inventory (possibly a mix of drops and rewards like Iron Banner)[url]http://i.imgur.com/FCEOGzI.png[/url]k - You can now [b]trade any currency with the Speaker[/b] (shards for energy, glimmer for motes, etc.) [url]http://i.imgur.com/XbZuXUM.png[/url] - There will be new weapon perks introduced. One example I saw: "Temporary increase to sprint speed after a melee kill" - They said they gear will drop during different stages of Prison of Elders - Petra will be the NPC that drives the HoW story - [b]You will be REQUIRED to complete Petras story mission[/b] in order to unlock Trials of Osiris and Prison of Elders - The Reef will contain a cryptarch, vault, bounty tracker, post master just like the tower. [b]All space and rank are same as the tower [/b] - Gunsmith will now sell telemetries - More UNIQUE weapons not just a reskin of an older weapon [url]http://i.imgur.com/aaDxupM.png[/url] - About commendations Gothalion said on Twitter "@Gothalion: Deej forgot to talk about commendations. I'm making him put it in the weekly update. It's really big. You'll love it." - Vendor weapons and armor from HoW do not have upgrade nodes for damage. Weapons start at 331 and armor starts at 36 light and then appear to need to be ascended with Etheric Light to hit max level - [b]Prison of Elders (and probably Trials of Osiris) gear will start at 42 light[/b]. No Etheric Light upgrade needed - Commendations are gone and can be cashed in for 250 rank points Please let me know what I'm missing! Edit: Thanks Monzter from planetdestiny.com forums for the screens linked above Thanks ImmortalAbyss!

  • The only thing that I'm sad about is that we still can't buy class materials and weapon parts. Everything else is becoming more readily available, however I don't have the time personally to run like 20 strikes or just farm glimmer to buy armor and dismantle it to get 200 mats that are used pretty much straight up. Planet based mats aren't a problem because they are so easily purchased, but they should go hand in hand with class mats... Just my 2 cents as I'm sure I'm not alone on this.

    • Does anybody know if u can ascend a weapon that isn't fully upgraded? Say just the final 3 damage upgrade nodes. in the stream he only ascended fully upgraded ones but he hovered over other ones that weren't upgraded and the ascend node was still there with all requirements met...

                    • Please Bungie, [b][u]add Etheric light rewards to Weekly Heroic[/u][/b]. Many of us logistically cant do the night fall much or at all (like me, never completed a nightfall) and if Prison of Elders is as difficult to organise as the Raids, then people like me will have a long time to collect even small amounts of Etheric Light. I would also love to be able to buy Ascendant material with Glimmer, even if they are like 1000G each.I have plenty of weapons & armor that have open upgrade slots still. I grind a lot, because I can't do Nightfall or Raids - it is slow! Reef looks tops though, love how the vault is linked to original!

                          • Things of note - 1st, they say (admit) all the content (DLCs) was created before launch, and they chose to "reserve" some content for later (DLCs) timed releases (more $$$). 2nd, they do have a end game event, although it could have been called a raid, they are calling it something different, but it is a raid level event at the end of the day. (so shut up Meg about "no raid.") 3rd, they said they had to completely remake this "DLC" storyline to fit the Destiny end game. (i.e. the original story was changed prior to launch, so they are playing catch up to redirect the story....) Otherwise, it sounds like HOW might be good. I hope they can truly deliver what they promised (or said, or hinted at, or showed. I know many loyal Desticles get upset at word choice.), unlike the original launch.

                          • Let's hope "Destiny" reached peak grind during the first expansion. I love seeing the HoW weapons already at max damage, only the perks need unlocking. This solves the problem of the new weapons being weaker and less fun to use than old weapons. Bungie has not yet solved the currency issue, and now we have even more currencies: Etheric light, cores needed to buy/upgrade gear from the House of Judgment, coins for entering the Trials of Osiris, etc. Exchanging old shards and energy for motes and glimmer is a nice way to get rid of them, but shards and energies will keep dropping from the old activities. (I'll keep playing VoG and CE until RNG blesses me with a Fatebringer and a Sword Breaker.) I hope Bungie gives us more space for currencies in our inventory. They can take the space from the mission items section. Weekly changes to the dynamics and reward drops from the Prison of Elders activity is brilliant. The only downer is the 3 Guardian limit. Finding 6 Guardians for the raid has always been a pain, but why not a fire team of 4? Has Bungie never heard of the "third wheel"? The Queen's Wrath ships are the best looking yet. There goes 17,500 glimmer!

                          • So what did I pay $30 for exactly? A new game mode BS! Why does some lazy broke person still get 80% of the content? Its dumb. if you want it to be fair to those who bought their season pass then the reef social area+story missions+PoE+Crucible maps should be locked. The other upgrading+rerolling as well as the ethentric light can be for non dlc players cause those should have been incorporated in the first place
