15,000 BRIGHT DUST JUST FOR THE GLOWS?

AND THE ONES FROM LAST YEAR DON’T WORK, OR EVEN AT LEAST GIVE A DISCOUNT? AFTER HOW MUCH BRIGHT DUST THE TRIBUTE HALL COST? Season of Opulence indeed. Edit to elaborate: Why was Bright Dust ever involved in Tribute Hall? A currency reserved for Eververse suddenly being of any kind of importance to Calus? Yet people are still sitting around with full stacks of Baryon Bough that are good for LITERALLY. NOTHING. Then there’s the matter of how much cheaper the glows were last year, while also being available for free unlock through leveling up. Now it’s way more expensive with no alternative. It’s just as backwards as when Year 1 drop rate for Exotics was super high and Three of Coins were unnecessary. Then Year 2 comes, Exotic drop rate gets severely nerfed and Three of Coins are removed. It’s such backwards logic that gets us nowhere. And the fact that those who were here in Year 1 and claimed full sets of Majestic armor, as well as all the glows, had that armor invalidated in WEEKS. The glows became USELESS. Now logic would state that those who worked for them should be able to use the same glows on the updated gear, yet we have updated Ornaments. Which would be fine and all, if there we any kind of lessened cost as a result, but there’s absolutely nothing. It’s just one thing after another. And if this is the trend going into Shadowkeep? Yeah. Edit again for those saying “just don’t buy them”: what then, would you say is the draw of solstice of heroes? What’s one of the biggest things Bungie has advertised about SoH since the Opulence Roadmap came out? Did Bungie ever act as though the Majestic Armor was the real endgame of SoH, or did they constantly show the armor with the Ornaments? You know, the Ornaments similar to the Revelry flair we temporarily got, but for free? The glow packages we got FROM ENGRAMS LAST YEAR? That if you just played enough, you received at NO COST? The Ornaments have always been one of the biggest motivators of SoH because they’re the closest we’ve got to Chroma in D2, aside from Prime armor that only really glows in Gambit. Yet it’s locked behind such a ridiculous wall of BD. The idea of unlocking this kind of endgame cosmetic through actual gameplay seems to be OUT OF THIS WORLD in the modern gaming industry. Why not make it so masterworking your Solstice Gear grants the glows? It seems to be such a foreign concept that used to be natural to Bungie. Looking at YOU Nanophoenix. “BuT iTs STiLl pUrChAseAble ThRoUgh GaMepLaY” Bounties give 150 Bright Dust for ridiculous objectives. Five Gambit matches to get 150 Bright Dust, when I could dismantle an RNG drop Exotic Ship from a Best of Year One and get FIVE HUNDRED. And once again, here we go again with Shadowkeep. And just so everyone is aware, I’ve now purchased all three glows. And now have 160 Bright Dust. But here comes SHADOWKEEP WITH NO ENGRAMS, HANG ON TO YOUR SEATS BOYS AND GIRLS One more edit: I find it hilarious that the new Ornaments STILL SUFFER from the SAME BUG AS LAST YEAR, where the ornament for the Hunter cloak doesn’t glow properly in social spaces. Same exact bug, so it’s clearly THE SAME CODING with a little flair. Yet players who already HAD the glows cant use them. Smh. Last edit: done responding to people.

          • Highly convenient timing to introduce bright dust sinks before they remove it from every source but bounties when shadowkeep launches.....

                • I‘m so glad I didn’t use anything for the tribute hall and eververse was also selling garbage. I have currently 10‘000+ brightdust. I just hope you‘ll get just some luck before the event ends:)

                • Am I the only one who thinks the price is somewhat fair? It’s a total of 15 ornaments so 333 dust each it it costs 1666 for a set on a single chracter. Yes it’s overpriced if you only want it for a single character but if you use all three then it’s fair imo. You don’t have to buy them anyway, even though it’ll be compatible when armor 2.0 who to say you’ll even use it...

                  • Yeah it sucks pretty hard really and wish something will be done about it ,but if I’m honest I don’t think most of the people should even bother I mean sure it looks cool,but realistically will you all still be using the solstice Armour when shadowkeep comes out ,or further down that line ? Personally I won’t be so I’m not even gonna spend a grain of dust on this ,And honestly it sucks that I have to decide to spend my dust on an event with themed rewards or save for cosmetics this September I may or may not like [spoiler]This goes for Digital Deluxe editions for DLC aswell (this is unrelated but it’s been bothering me) but for those who have bought a Digital deluxe version of this game/ forsaken are you still using those rewards or are they just left to rot in your vault ,unless you really really want the bonus please PLEASE stop buying this variant because youre way better off paying for the normal edition if you’re gonna buy a copy of Shadowkeep I know we get excited when new things are thrown into destiny and since the dlc isn’t out yet we think the new gear in these editions for pre order makes it seem we get them early,it doesn’t ,by October we will have so many other things like it ,An emote ,ghost shell and emblem is NOT worth the $50 increase,if this showed up in the eververse store there would be riots on the streets ![/spoiler]

                      How do you not have 50k bright dust? I stopped playing for long periods of time and still ended up with at least that much after tossing all my EV stuff for Dust. Did you blow it all on the obvious Tribute Hall trap or something?

                        • Bungie are doing it so you don't have any bright dust left so you're forced to use silver to acquire cosmetics. Why do you think they told you to dismantle all your shaders and eververse gear? Then in the weeks/months leading up to shadowkeep eververse engrams don't drop and a lot more stuff than usual is using bright dust.....
