Etheric Light

So, it's my understanding that the new material "Etheric Light" will only drop from activities that require an Xbox Live account or whatever the PS3/PS4 equivalent is. I understand it that this new material will not be purchasable as the exotic shards have been from Xur. It sounds to me that Etheric Lights will not be found in the wild or found found breaking down other gear. Is this all correct? EDIT: Xbox Live Account is meant to be a Gold Account, not just the basic account needed to even play the game.

  • They said it was possible or all players to get to the material. That one doesn't need to buy the expansion, that it'll just take longer. I would assume the same hold true for those without live gold. Just like today, those without gold can technically get legendary and exotic items but have a much lower chance compared to those with gold who can do raids and strikes

    • Ethereal Light. You need Xbox live or PSN to play the game. Ethereal Light will be obtained as drops in Trials of Osiris, Prison of Elders, Iron Banner and the Nightfall.

      • When Bungie said exotic shards will be needed to upgrade their exotics, ppl lost their shit. And for no reason. Exotic shards weren't hard to come by at all. Even before Xur started selling them. I think the same will be true for the Etheric Lights.

          Correct.... And etheric light won't be that big of deal... Say you do nightfall, prison of elders, queens wrath, and trials on all 3 characters week one, your more than likely gonna walk out with 3-5 pieces of etheric. And since exotics don't require etheric light, there are only so many Legendaries i want/need to ascend right away in the game. 1) Fatebringer 2) VOC 3) zombie apocalypse. All my other Legendaries can certainly wait the couple weeks til I get more etheric light.

        • Can any legendary or exotic gear be upgraded? Or just raid gear, and HoW vendor gear?

            So that means that these etheric lights are gonna be a bitch to get I mean honestly I was hoping xur or the speaker would sell them Edit: would be a hell of a lot easier than waiting for drops

            • Just do raids and nightfall weekly on all your characters that can do them. You'll have your best chance to get them. Well those and the new arena which if it's a horde mode I foresee 3 warlocks running obsidian mind destroying that arena.

            • I found that they ment it'll be as common as asscendent material. They said if you did the raids nightfall and such you could hit the motherload
