Full credit to /u/ j1h15233 for compiling the list.[/quote] The bolded better not be true or there will be A LOT of anger, even more than no raid most likely. Giving content we ACTUALLY PAID FOR to everyone for free a couple months later is a total load of crap! It makes me think "gee why buy the expansions when Bungie, the geniuses they are, will just give them to me if I wait? Or, if not, I still get 90% of it anyways cause logic." Bungie just lost a chunk of my respect.

      3700 xp to IB rank 3. 4800 to go from 3 to 5 Plus you can do bounties (easier xp) on new characters. TL;DR it will be quicker to take 2 different characters to level 3 then it will be to take a single character to level 5 in IB for Etherical light purposes. 3 Characters at 1 etheric light each plus an exotic means you are a single iron banner away from guaranteed level 34. munch on that for a second. plus 3 bounties can be done everyday by even the scrubbiest players (10 melees, 20 primary headshots, 1000 xp) over 7 days that is 2100 per character guaranteed WITHOUT any of the additional xp from items or wins and losses. so now after the gimme points (again before all the buffs and no wins or coins) you have to earn 1600 to get to level 3 and 2700 for 1 to get to level 5.

        • That will be a load of steaming horse crap if they give the dark below maps to everyone for free when a bunch of us already paid for it.

        • giving the dark below crucible maps out for free is for the best as with what happened in the dark below with daily's and weekly/nightfall it locked players out so maybe they have done this so when playing ToO people without the first or any expansion will not get booted back to the orbit as each weekend the ToO maps change.

              • "Wahhhhhhh, whhhahhhhhhhh! I paid for my dark below maps, why do they get them for free?" Before anyone else makes a comment like this, just stop for a second and STFU. You're gonna shit your diapers over a few maps? They get no other tdb content.

              • Ms5000Watts says you get the passage for 250 glimmer from the vendor each week. Considering she was at the Bungie event it is more likely true.

              • Kind of annoyed that TDB maps will be free, but if that had to be done to include those in the Trials it's all good. I would love that mode on Pantheon and the Cauldron

                Can anyone tell me what's meant by "double marks and reputation"? Higher capacity? Things cost double? We gain twice as much? Really vague, so I didn't understand. Edit: Nevermind. Found the article that info was linked to. For those that also don't know it's that you [u]receive[/u] double.

                • Additional good tip: In the Twitch reveal of ToO it was confirmed that ascending armor will in fact increase it's stat roll (ie, INT, STR, DIS).

                • I read that Etheric Light CAN drop in IB at level 3 & 5 meaning they are in the loot table. But I may have misunderstood

                          • Wow, That is amazing, This dlc has so many more additions compared to the dark below. TDB seems like a cod dlc compared to HoW.
