More! More!

Let's discuss how there's no discount on Forsaken or the Annual Pass for people that own D2 plus the first two expansions. I'd like to play Forsaken, but I'm not paying full price after already paying full price for all year one content, and year one was largely a disappointment and Bungie knows that. poo poo, I don't think it's too much to ask for a $10-$20 discount for players that supported D2 for what was mostly a miserable year one. Sorry but I'm just not doing it. Hope you all enjoy Forsaken. I'll jump in when it's on sale.

Farewell, good Hunter. May you find your worth in the waking world.

How are you guys handling the infusion/light level economy while going through the campaign? Are you all just using all blue gear constantly until you’re done? The infusion costs for like an exotic are really high.

Ogres seem to be not worth it in Gambit, they die too quickly and it's not worth risking that many motes to get there. Phalanxes and Knights are good enough. You mostly just want to give them more to shoot. I've been using Future Safe 10 for invading and it's a one-shot kill both as an invader and against them if you time En Garde correctly. I've been having a lot of fun with that until a Sleeper shot nails me. :v:

Mostly though the only thing killing me is just damage from bouncing around. Everything has a shockwave now and there are a whole lot of rounded surfaces on these maps.

With exotics, does every Y1 armor or weapon have a chance to randomly drop as a Y2 one with random perks or only a few? Will catalysts carry over? For example if I get a Y2 Crimson and I've finished the catalyst will I have it unlocked to start with?

I didn't even make it all the way through the Mercury expansion because of how much of a disappointing step back D2 was, how long do you suppose you'll all need to play before you know whether this expansion is actually good and fixes all of this game's problems or whether you're just having fun with that new greeble smell?

I still can't change shaders depending on my mood without having to waste resources doing it like in D1. So it's one step forward one step back in that regard. I'm totally digging being able to use D1 weapon loadouts though. Bows are awesome. Bummer that Warlock armor is still ugly dresses and bathrobes instead of D1 trenchcoats. New subclass trees are ballin' but make the old ones seem obsolete, so good? New enemy types are fun to fight. Story runs into the same problem as Red War in that they make a big deal about being alone while a dozen guardians shoot magic in the background. Spider and the Hedgehog battalion are dope as hell and my friends. Infusion is unfeasibly expensive and I don't know how I'm going to afford to do it come endgame. Hawthorne keeps getting marked on my map but has nothing to give me, and flashing markers keep telling me to turn in resources but I need this to infuse. Guns and armor have good perks that make the game funner.
