Elemental primaries are back as Exotics. Adept Fatebringer has arc burn, but an non elemental legendary version can drop at 400 light

This is pretty fuckin' lit, I think I hit McMahon stage 2 just now. I really like the Crota set.

edit: really like the damage fx on the crota armor, probably gonna main titan now




The VoG set is p fuckin' cool too

Hahahahaha Necrochasm is going to be terrifying now. They're buffing ARs in the spirit of giving Necrochasm its day in the sun.

I like the new WoTM armor more than the first iteration tbh

Edit: Oh good I can use the Arminius-D again, they're reducing the effect of falloff in addition to that of Hand Cannons.

Suros, also lit

The original armors look embarrassingly bad by comparison to these. I'm definitely gonna have to go for the VoG Titan and CE Warlock gear.

Sidearms spawn with only 1 magazine of ammo, won't stack on respawn. Ammo from crate goes right into sidearm without reloading.

Skorri runs for 60 seconds when you get a kill while your super is full.

True! How exciting. Goons only visit even remotely near my equipment next time. I say, can only newbies try raids on light levels in new gear? You only use raid tips heard on uber good hotlines; that's super.

I feel like I'm at a McMahon 3 after all that. They basically addressed most complaints I had heard or fielded myself, and the guns & armor are pretty sick, but I'm not *quite* falling out of my chair.



edit:

Not at all, they just kinda mentioned they existed. I hope further details will come, I'm excited about Necrochasm.

Let's hope the drop rate is more than 0.00000000000000000000000000000001% then. Also I hope at this point it drops the actual Necrochasm cause I definitely don't want to farm/grind that broken version again.

True. If they get added to the kiosk, I will probably end up infusing or sharding any that drop for me. Keeping a Vex for solar burn and a random Void primary for void burns and just shard everything else.

Get 4 cruxes and they turn into a Y3 Nechrochasm.

Hidden in CE will be hive husks and you have to carry them all the way to Crota's chamber meaning that once a guardian picks one up, he's melee only for the rest of the raid. Then everyone has to beat Crota to death with these husks and when that happens a hidden door will open up that allows you to pick up the Necrochasm mission, which requires you to run the raid 10 more times with exactly two of each class and and even split of subclass elements.

I think I just realized that Necro aside, I don't care about any of the new Exotic weapons or armor sets in the least :/ Exotic perk of elemental damage is lackluster and the weapons of those I would ever touch, the reason is because they are/were a strong Legendary ie Genesis Chain~. The armors are new and interesting and do things, those I get, but the mass exoticification is disappointing.

With the sheer number of them coming, and the update we had a week back or so boosting the amount and quality of data Bungie collects from gameplay, this really checks out. Yeah, only adding in one or two elemental primaries would make them a temporary distraction or a burn modifier staple like Zhalo but adding in some nearly 20 of them encourages such wider use that they can get a solid grip* on how to handle them moving forward. Good poo poo, man.

*As much as they can having almost no clue what appropriate actions to take with the data they gathered previously

Every major update, I see them get better and better at data collection and analysis. I'm kind of happy to have been here through the awkward times because I feel like I contributed in an entirely insignificant and individually meaningless way. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
