Indomitable Light, if released, won't be sold for silver. We good fam. For now. Let it die.

Increases likelihood of weapon and armor drops from your next King's Fall foe.[/quote]
This is absolute garbage.
It makes perfect sense why you designed the current loot system in King's Fall to be terrible; it was designed with this (highly likely) paid-for consumable in mind the entire time.
I just killed Oryx on my Titan and guess what I got? 2 shards. This is disgusting. If your company has even a shred of integrity left (doubtful), you'll make sure this item never sees the light of day as it is currently designed.

[b]Edit[/b]: Here's a pertinent quote from Skillis Gillis in this thread: https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/162579572/0/0/1
[quote]"Consumable items are nonreturnable"
Notice how there currently aren't any consumable items in the store, only emotes. This means that you can assume they'll be adding consumable items sooner or later.[/quote]
Is there a chance that this will be an in-game drop? Sure. Is it highly suspicious that Tess Everis has this disclaimer with these consumables popping up in the database? Yes, yes it is.
[b]Edit #2[/b]: Even if it ends being being an over-reaction:
1. It doesn't hurt to let Bungie know exactly where the community stands and the backlash they'll receive if they do something as stupid as this.
2. It says something about Bungie's/Activision's reputation that people would so easily suspect them of doing this. [/spoiler]

2 RisposteI got two shards from oryx last night(while it took 20 shards from me). With primaries not having a burn, even when you do get a drop, it isn't very exciting
-
I'll quit destiny it will be bye bye for me IF they do anything stupid
-
ill take it.. its no different then the moldering shard.. . guess what, I had 47 shards on my character... guess what? I got more shard throughout the entire raid. guess what else? I could give a shit. just play the game and have fun playing it. if you get a drop, great, if not, great. is the destiny world around you collapsing cause you didn't get an item? If you think so. Turn off your console and go outside and try and get some kind of interactive life going.. cause if destiny and the loot system is your main concern.. You have some issues.

2 RisposteModificato da RealisticTrout5: 10/14/2015 1:37:54 PMI've seen quite a few people decked out in raid gear. What is the issue with raid drops? Is it the weapons or armor? This is the same as what went down with VoG when it first came out. Everyone expects all the gear off of >10 completions......... Indomitable light will allow more filthy casuals to raid and get gear. Let them pay and play. Its just an attempt to include more of the community. I don't see an issue with this at all. All games are going the way of the wallet warrior. They are targeting people with disposable incomes. Kids can enjoy the fact that they are good at games because they have time to play them. For us older folk who want to get experience everything but don't have the time can pay to see the best parts of a game. Yes, I agree its ruining the gaming industry, but Bungie is just cashing in on something many companies have been doing for awhile. You know what the definition of insanity is. Let it go.

This consumable is not news. It's been in the database for all of TTK.....

3 RisposteI've stood by them since beta and I don't care about cosmetic junk but if it becomes pay for advantage I'm out.
-
8 RisposteThere is literally zero chance it's going be a microtransaction. It's just going be a new drop in hard/heroic raid, or never exist.
-
1 RispondiLuke smith has come out and said that there will be no consumables of this effect that you can purchase with money. So all is good.
-
I agree. They should sell more traffic cones.
-
Talk about putting the cart before the horse.

I know for one thing I am already perturbed at the KF drop rates. This is an eye opener for sure. Why must I increase my drop chance on a raid that's already pretty difficult, and requires a 1.5-2 hour time investment? [spoiler]I don't want to hear from people that the raid takes an hour. It does if you're Maliced/Spindled, heavily practiced, and no one is jump puzzle retarded in your regular weekly group. Yes I myself have been in said good groups. Step outside yourselves and think about the other side, or the norm.[/spoiler] I will be following this stuff with great interest, Young Skywalker. I don't like where this is headed.

im gonna "GO ON A STRIKE" if they release this. Ba da tsss

7 RisposteYour options: 1. Post in the forum that your quitting the game. Don't actually quit the game. Continue to bitch about game. Result: Nobody cares. 2. Post in the forum that your quitting the game. Quit the game. Result: Nobody cares. 3. Quit the game without telling anyone. Result; Same...nobody gives a single F^ck 4. Just play the damn game as it's intended and have fun. Result: Others still don't give a shit but at least your having fun.

Luke Smith twitted this will never (nor has it been planned) to happen!

1 RispondiSigned. Holy F hope not. It's barely year 2, too too early to start nickel and dining the game to a long slow death
-
Direct from Luke Smith http://m.neogaf.com/showpost.php?p=181613460 Quit crying!

Complete over-reaction.

2 Rispostehttps://twitter.com/thislukesmith OP is a paranoid douchebag.

Couple things: The Valorous/Heuristic/Indomitable Light were Three of Coins-like buffs sold by the Speaker for Motes+Planetary Materials (I honestly don't remember exactly what they cost, [but it was never Silver] I can't keep the entire economy in my head) but for a variety of bug-related reasons they were removed. They were also - as has been pointed out - in the data files before TTK shipped. Someone PM me when Zoba hasn't talked about TLW for a month (seriously, move on). Clock starts now ;b Last edited by LukeSmith; Today at 09:24 AM. Reason: spacing it looks ugly and semantic clean up to alleviate confusion

4 RisposteLuke smith just tweeted that they are not selling increased drop rate consumables for silver
-
6 RisposteThis posts are AIDS, Luke smith has confirmed they won't be sold by tess, from xur though maybe.
-
2 RisposteEveryone's so dramatic. Three hours ago Luke Smith just confirmed they are not selling the Kings Fall loot drop buff. You guys always have to find a way to hate.
-
5 RisposteLuke smith has already said that it won't be sold for real money, it will probably be something like the three of coins where you buy from Xur
