I originally made this post to let Bungie know some of care about our Vanilla Exclusive content, and to help get it made infusable...
Now there is an issue for any guardians that care enough about the game to Upgrade to the current consoles to continue our path to legend...
It's a simple issue, that needs a simple fix, I only want to make Bungie aware...
So please help me and any other Original guardian get this resolved, and sign, or post anything to keep eyes on this, even if its to make fun of us...
Original post below
The Frontier shell has now been made infusable, thanks for all the support, we did it...
[spoiler][b]At this point, I don't see what it would hurt to make it infusable with year 2 ghost shell, I really wish we could get bungies attention on this, its such a small task that would make some of their most loyal $$$ customers happy (shut up) what's the problem?[/b]

Well it is official, the special order shop has reopened, we are now able to reaquire our useless Frontier Shell from the Speaker, but it is still the same useless 3 def with infuse, and no way to infuse it, so it seems we are going to have to accept this, maybe expecting to be able to take it with us though out our journey was naive or childish, but this idea was how they sold it to me in the first place, anyways thanks for the replies and support, hopefully Bungie will learn, eventually![\spoiler]
[b]Below is the original post with nothing edited out:[/b]
[spoiler]After TTK released, we now know that it cannot be reforged, has no stats perks, and can only be infused with items from the same year...which is impossible...
I also noticed the Brave ghost is a reskin, if you have it equipped when doing beggining missions it appears as the Frontier Shell...
I am extremely dissapointed at these findings...bungie, what are you thinking!!
After new discoverys edit:
[b][u]The frontier shell can now be infused, and is also reforgable, so bungie is letting us take it with us into year 2...I'm excited to see what perks we can roll on it...[/u][/b]
Thanks for all the support, and replies...
Before anything was known:
Thanks to a sensible guardians reply, the best explanation is this:
[b]As of now, (if you have it now) you can buy the Frontier shell from the special delivery for a small amount of glimmer, assuming we can infuse them, maybe bungie saw a potential problem and A-are trying to fix it (placeholder theory) or B-made 3 the value to discourage exploits...[/b]
Original post follows:
I was just going over the tower reveal again, looking for details I missed...
I found something that pissed me off to no end...
The rare ghost shell the speaker will be selling has 160 defense...who cares right!
The Frontier ghost shell, one of the items you got if you purchased the Ghost edition copy of Destiny...has 3 defense...
[b][i][u]3 DEFENSE[/u][/i][/b]
Wtf is up with that...
I know not very many will care, because it doesn't affect them, but this is complete bullshit...
Edit: thanks for the replies, I'm a lot calmer then I was an hour ago...and just to clear up my point...
It bothers me to see a rare ghost shell, that you can buy for 3 marks, a mote of light, and what ever else, beat out a legendary exclusive ghost shell that real $$$ was spent to aquire...
Edit: It could be the pic is just a place holder (thanks to a few of you that took the time to help me realize this) and everything is still subject to change...
I wanted to make sure bungie knew it was important to at least me...
Finally, I want to make it clear, I do not expect or want to be more powerful, or have an advantage, I just want the Frontier shell at least par with the rare ghost shells...and the only way to express this is to come here, and see how everyone else felt about this topic...[/spoiler]

Signed

bump so hard
-
[spoiler]bump[/spoiler]
-
I want to use it because it's a red ghost and it's legendary. I don't want to be stuck with an uninfusable bold red shell. (Favorite color is red)
-
I don't care that I paid money for it, since I've found other ghosts that I prefer (love you, Dreadghost). But why give it the option to infuse at all? No other yr1 has that ability (not including atheric light). It seems [i]deliberately[/i] useless.
-
Why didn't they just program it as a year two item? They were in the file anyway...
-
We need to keep hounding them about this till the fix it
-
Idk if you have found out how (please reply if you have) to infuse it up but I think you need something close to its level so if you guys could please tell me what quests give low ghosts could you please reply

Edited by Shard_Falcors: 10/20/2015 3:27:41 PMI'm a little pissed that I can't actually infuse it. I DID pay money for it. I didn't expect it to be more than 170 before I begin infusing it, but I CAN'T infuse it. That alone pisses me off. I even deleted the one I've carried since day one and picked up a new one from the Speaker, but it's still unable to be infused. It would have been nice of them to release a year two version on the Speaker for those of us that bought the Ghost Edition.

Edited by Kavo: 9/4/2015 2:33:50 AMWay I see it, the Frontier shell didn't even have a defense stat. By rights, it should be 0, so what's the big deal? (And yes, I have the Frontier shell, in case you were wondering)
-
Bump. Don't even have the shell. But I bought the red bull can, and the ghost is blue ;_;
-
-
-
Necro bump. I just want to use my Frontier Shell. Not for the vanity factor, I just really like the way it looks.
-
Frontier shell can be infused so I don't care. Didn't notice that till this morning
-
got also frontier shell and i am so pissed... has infuse option BUT cannot be infused with anything, GG bungie! way to appreciate the players who have been there from the start....
-
Can't you infuse it with one of those year 2 ghost shells?
-
I have the frontier shell as well and at first I was a little disappointed but in the end realized that I can use a stronger one to infuse with it, so although it has a 3 defense right now it's still possible to bring it to a higher defense later in the game. You can't do that with the rare shells so ultimately we would have a 1 up on other players if it started with a higher defense previous to infusions.

Edited by Matt Boy52: 9/11/2015 2:26:36 AMThis is a different topic, but yesterday I saw someone with a Ghost wearing the "Turquoise Shell". Where do you get that one, the Speaker only sells the "Winter Sky" and "Verdant" ones as far as I can tell.
-
Nope still 3 and there is nothing you can infuse it with so what the crap bungie
-
If that legendary shell was excellent, or even decent, it would be an unfair advantage to those who bought the collectors edition
-
Just like dreads emnity, the poe bond, has 3 defense, its my favorite bond and im furious that i can't wear it anymore
-
This is also frustrating me. I, admittedly, got out of playing Destiny after initially hitting the level cap and getting into the original light system. I have since picked it back up and am once again enjoying the game immensely. However, purchasers of the original game are really getting the short end of the stick here, and in more ways than one. Not only am I paying more for the standalone Taken King expansion than anyone else who can purchase a bundle and get the original game AND all DLC/expansions, but now I come to find the things that came with my original purchase (i.e. a legendary ghost shell) are all but worthless junk. Hell, I have even tried upgrading said shell and the upgrade options literally do not work (when selecting to add intellect or discipline the numbers remain at 0). I could also complain about the removal of the Dinkles...but apparently most people prefer the new voice so I am alone on that front. At least I still have the ghost replica voiced by him!
