                • I'm so excited! I just hope somebody helps me get the Thorn and Khvostov quests done if their Fireteam related ( in Year 2, I've only gotten my Sleeper Stimulant quest done so far). Also, I love the fact that their bringing back The Devil's Lair and Abomination Heist, but where is The Nexus, it's now the only strike that hasn't been brought up to Year 3 values? Maybe Bungie will deploy a new Nexus in the future?

                  • If that's all for crucible, I won't bother upgrading from the 360... well not for destiny anyway. I really expected custom games.

                      • Not sure why people are so hyped about Thorn. Look what they did to sunsingers burn damage because of the moaning. Really think thorn will be the same....

                            • i can't just pick one thing that i love about Rise of Iron! i Love all the features! New light lvl! New Strikes! New Gear! Exotic Kvostov! Spicers seem like a new challenge! A new Arena! Strike specific loot easier to get! Iron Banner bounties give you gear right away after completion! Easier to get to iron banner rank 5! I wonder what the long awaited feature is going to be. Before i typed this comment i saw another comment from someone else guessing its going to be private matches, i forgot about that, i guess it is a feature that many players want, i hope it is private matches!

                            • [quote]Every Class Item ever seen is returning to circulation EXCEPT previous Raid Class Items and will change with shaders[/quote] Why not the raid class items? Why is bungie so adamant to not bring back anything raid related? Almost every other armor set that has been in the game since year 1 has had some form or another within faction vendors, but we can't get variations of some of the best looking gear in the game? Not even made strike specific or anything? I'm glad they're adding things like ornaments and letting us use [i]most[/i] of the class items in the game... But they really need to just bite the bullet already and add in vanity slots/transmog. I hate seeing great looking armor go to waste, especially where the last couple of raid sets are kind of meh... I hate that my favorite looking gear has to just collect dust in my vault forever.
