BREAKING NEWS: Destiny is getting a June Update...tomorrow!

https://www.reddit.com/r/DestinyTheG...ming_tomorrow/

They're making a lot of changes to Hunters, as well as changes to other classes. Plus there's another round of weapon tuning.

No word on SRL coming back or anything worthy of coming back to the game.

Almost 2 years later, and their weapon tuning is still a joke.

Re: Bungie - Destiny

OK, patch notes are up and I may have found a reason to come back to Destiny:

Three new Chroma colors have been added: Orange, Magenta, & Green

WOW! More chroma!

https://www.bungie.net/en/News/Artic...date---6142016

There are a couple of interesting things. You no longer have to wait for the daily to come around to do Paradox (No Time To Explain), Lost To Light (Black Spindle) or wait for the 7th to to The First Firewall (Sleeper Simulant). You can now do those from the director.

One more change: The patch changed the nightfall from SABER to Omnigul.

So it's the first time Omnigul has been the Nightfall in Year 2. I'm tempted to do nightfalls this week to finally get the Omnigul Bond...

I'd be up for that as well. Maybe Ice can join us Monday night after the patch downloads for him.

Another cool change: If you see that friend icon on an activity, you can now hover over it to see just which friends are doing said activity.

Well, that's all well and good, but where is Xur?



Answer: He's in center tower over by the vanguard table. Ikora Rey is looking at him funny. Or maybe it's me she's looking at for arriving 12 hours late.

IB was to start to tomorrow .... not now (again)

Due to the same issue that prevented players from joining matches in Trials of Osiris, we are also cancelling Iron Banner for this week.

If the new expansion lets me buy the old expansion at 1/4th the price, I'm in.

It probably won't happen immediately, but it didn't take too long for Bungie to include The Dark Below and House Of Wolves with The Taken King for free.

So I could see them giving you all the expansions for $30 starting around December or so.

That being said, I can't see them selling TTK for $40 once Rise Of Iron comes out. I mean, they gotta cut the price in half at the very least I'd think.

Re: Bungie - Destiny

Sorry, I was getting the two and four of coins in Uncharted: Golden Abyss. No three of coins though. I was disappointed.

Re: Bungie - Destiny

Bungie Day is today!

https://www.bungie.net/en/News/Artic...PPY-BUNGIE-DAY

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b1boVrLFdoI

They've also announced the requirements for Triumphs in year 2.

Another Year. Another Triumph.

Ever since we issued the first invitation to play Destiny, we’ve been challenging the Guardians to become legend. But what does that mean? Where do we set the bar for the elite members of this brave community?



Last year, we answered those questions when we unveiled Moments of Triumph, a gauntlet of impressive feats of daring and skill. For those Guardians who could meet the challenge, there were rewards to define their status as one of the most dangerous warriors in the Tower. This year, we’re also tracking your progress toward immortality in the game.



Before you have the chance to fight your way to the top of Felwinter Peak, we have another mountain for you to climb. See the Postmaster right now to begin tabulating your journey. You can also keep track of your progress right here on Bungie.net. Is your Profile Page more impressive than this?



For every two challenges that you complete, there will be a new reward. If you can complete all of them, you’ll unlock an offering in the Bungie Store that will enable you to commemorate your complete triumph over evil.



As a Guardian who has met every challenge in the Director, you deserve a garment that bears their name. Even better, your purchase of this customizable t-shirt will benefit the Bungie Foundation, making you a protector of the real world as well. This isn’t just a chance to personalize your gear. You’ll be joining us in a mission of charity and goodwill.



The march begins now! Some of you may have already crossed the finish line. The rest of you have until September 20th. When Lord Saladin sounds the new charge to battle, the old challenges will pass into memory – and legend.

If I were still playing, that would really upset me. I am at 7/8. I could play 24 hours straight from now until September, and I would never meet that crucible requirement

Re: Bungie - Destiny

Just checked, and of course I completed all of them months ago.

The Crucible one isn't as bad now as it was originally. Still not very fun, and takes way too long, but doable.

Mini Xur Report:

Xur is located in front of the Big Door across from The Speaker.

He offers:

The Armamentarium
Bones Of Eao
Purifier Robes
MIDA Multi-Tool
Chest Legacy Engram (Do not buy this)

End Of Line

Re: Bungie - Destiny

I signed in last night as well to click on the circles in the Moments of Triumph book. I realized that my postmaster had saved all the Sterling Treasures I hadn't claimed, so I was able to get 6 or 7 of them.

I also bought a ton of those Chest Engrams. What a deal!!!
