Probably gonna be only one of the decently good things to happen this season, still so much shit that needs to be fixed but isn’t being touched because bungie has better priorities apparently.

NGL they are still dog poop.

Master worked a set already haha

NGL people still wont use them!

Don’t believe any hype. I’ll judge it when it’s live.

A response for negative feedback on these and my feelings: My fire team is probably going to be running these a lot this season and in the future. Something doesn’t need to be easy to be fun and/or good. Look at Heart of Inmost Light as an example. A very powerful and fun exotic, and probably the most complex in the game to get working right. These Aeon exotics will be extremely unique based off of their team play mechanics. They should open up build options a good bit, too. You don’t need to use super energy to use a special ammo finisher? More supers! More ability uptime during hard content just by stunning supers? Not so much worry about stats! And uh the Sect of Vigor... oh! Being able to pop a Ward and save your allies from a distance? Niche, but sounds awesome! And none of these even require another team member to be wearing Aeon armor. There are already several exotics in the game that work best in team play. Some that really only work that way. But that is intended, same as these exotics! They just lean into it harder than any other exotic, which makes them very unique. Variety is good. Having only exotics meant to beef up yourself sounds boring. We have options to do that for solo play, and options to do team builds for team activities. Builds should change depending on what activity you are doing on depending on what play style you want to have. Personally I look forward to seeing how these work in Grandmaster Nightfalls this season while I hunt down an Adept Shadow Price (check bio, been that way ever since D2 dropped. Squealed when they announced it coming back.)

You are probably getting too hyped for what these will actually feel like to play with.

Might get hate for this but... They're not NEARLY as complex and meaningful as Bungie thinks. I really wish we'd move away from the power facade of "fast reloads, handling and ability energy." They don't really matter in higher level content and i wish we could start getting things like "+25% Auto Rifle Damage" or bonus damage for your next super and/or grenade. Ways to ACTUALLY build around certain weapon types and make them Endgame viable. This IS a looter shooter after all. This isnt Diablo or Path of Exile and builds rarely matter. All you need to beat everything is LFG friendship and the current meta Heavy Weapon. If you had 0 in all stats for the Raid or Master Lost Sectors it wouldn't matter. If you had the slowest reloads and handling it wouldnt matter. The heavy ammo support doesnt even matter because the ammo finder mods work well enough. Either make meaningful synergy with real game changing effects or just give ability augmenting Exotics like Bakris, Icefall Mantle and Necrotic Grips which I used to trivialize the ad spam in Prophecy and get my brother a full Moonfang set easily. These are Ecotics with powerful and more tangible effects that make the game more exciting.

u better hold on it sounds cool but trust me when i say this is bungie they can make anything sound cool till u get it then it’s trash

Lifeless Shell You make some valid points and I agree that ever verse should be removed from this game. But Whether we wanted it or not, we’ve stepped into a war with the Cabal on Mars. So let’s get to taking out their command, one by one. Valus Ta’aurc. From what I can gather he commands the Siege Dancers from an Imperial Land Tank outside of Rubicon. He's well protected, but with the right team, we can punch through those defenses, take this beast out, and break their grip on Freehold.

Disagree. From my point of view the problem wasn't the perks. Its that you had to have an entire fireteam commit to wearing the same exotics in order to derive the benefit. So, to me, the exotics are just as impractical as they were before.

Yes, thanks for doing your jobs

For groups yes, as a solo player the rework made no difference

I don't see any reason to replace the exotics I currently use.

I really can’t think of a reason to take off my stompees or dunemarchers for this rework. The heavy perk seems useful in end game but other than that, I’m not taking my boots off.

They're still useless......... Against stompees / dunemarchers / transversives every other exotic is pretty much useless. I prefer my extra mobility. No changes to other exotics will make me change my mind.

They are still worthless. I bet you never see players run these, even after the rework.

They will never be used. Promise.
