DeeJ dropped some nice little nuggets of info in the last weekly update but I haven't seen any threads trending about it. Here's what he teased
- The spawn locking issue currently affecting Iron Banner will be fixed
- Legendary items will be added to post-game reward tables for all Crucible activities - [b]This is a big win and will allow people who mainly play crucible to earn gear/weapons drops other than crappy blues and the ultra rare exotic[/b]
- Your first match in the daily featured Crucible activity will earn you a new reward package each day - [b]I'm guessing this will be similar to a package from the Daily Public Event with a random mote/energy and XP[/b]
- Reputation and Mark gains will double for each completed Crucible match - [b]This is great news. Since I've gotten into PvP it is a GRIND to try to max out your earned marks. In PvE you at least get bonus for nightfall & heroic. Seems this will help fix that[/b]
- Etheric Light will become available for acquisition from Lord Saladin upon reaching Rank 3 and Rank 5 in Iron Banner - [b]I'm really curious what this means. Specifically it says "acquisition" does that mean you can buy it once per rank? Or maybe a package will be dropped when you hit the rank?[/b]
- And, finally, these maps from The Dark Below will become the domain of all and be added to the standard rotation for select playlists: Pantheon, Skyshock, The Cauldron
Also there is a notice right now about a patch tomorrow, cross your fingers and maybe it will include this.
Comment if you're excited for the changes.

Hail Yes

2 RepliesVery excited. Especially for the good rewards for actually WINNING games and even more so for TDB maps coming into regular rotation. Didn't really play them myself because 3 same maps was just boring.

3 RepliesWell crucible is horrible. Anyone with an ounce of true competition will find a different game. Free super kills, rocket launchers for everyone, and only 2 effective primary weapons? Loool

Also, Legendary rewards dropping in Crucible isn't a new thing is it? I remember getting Legendary armor from Crucible back in the day. Did it get removed?

2 RepliesI had [b]NO[/b] idea about that third bullet point, the one about the first match in the daily Crucible mode awarding you a package. That sounds pretty awesome and will undoubtedly lead to me actually playing something other than Control or Clash.
