It goes as such:
Prison of Elders is reworked and light leveled-up to the new light cap. Starting at the lowest light arena, you get "taken" VoG gear. Then "taken" crota gear, so forth and so on. And at the highest level, "taken" versions of any of the raid gear drops at the highest light, randomly. This includes weapons.
Have a good day with this knowledge in mind.
EDIT: I cannot post my source, when April comes you will see. Thank you.
EDIT EDIT: Keep discussing, guardians. April Update will show this to be true.
Edit #3: For all the naysayers: you have an opinion, fair enough. Let the update show you. Make sure to Necro this post and look at how doubtful you were.
FINAL EDIT: What Urk said does not invalidate this. I said it means that gear drops in updated PoE, which isn't the old raids.
FINAL FINAL EDIT: Looking deeper, Urk claims old gear won't return. But wasn't Darkhollow and "Harrowed" Darkhollow gear listed as completely separate? Do keep that in mind.
LAST MINUTE UPDATE: The new strike, Blighted Chalice, will be in the Hellmouth and involves Fallen who have mistakenly freed Malok, whom we all know from the Hunter legendary helmet listed in the armory.

I would have given you the benefit of the doubt until you said Taken versions of raid weapons. I'll wait with baited breath, but for sure I won't be holding it.
-
Lol no
-
Dude you blew your load too early, nobody is going to remember this post, and you probly did that cause this is a huge pile of bull shit.
-
-
Im just hoping that its a taken shader. Would love to see my fwc gear with it.
-
No source, won't provide a link. Smells like bullshit.
-
That would be pretty kewl.
-
That would be so awesome.
-
My source told me you're speculating in hopes of being right so you can feel important.
-
Hope you speak the truth sir! It would make sense. I think there will be some sort of etheric light substance to upgrade year 2 items to new max level too
-
Nah that would be giving bungo way too much credit Just poe with taken included With 340 light levels Same poe crapola gear set That's all poe was before level 34 stuff It was not a raid so there will not be raid gear dropping
-
Great. So now Year 2 players get to experience the worth of VoG armor, something that was special and exclusive to Year 1 vets. Will we have anything special?
-
Rule #1, never believe B.Net users, especially without source.
-
No source? No way.
-
I'd be happy with this
-
The only thing that we can assume right now is that PoE is coming back, because of the armor in the weekly update, and that it will have an implementation of the taken. Anything else you said in this post is a mere guess.

If that's all they do I'll just wait and see what Destiny 2 brings in 2017. I'm tired of the old strikes, POE level 27 was fine because it had matchmaking, but the upper levels blow. What I really love about the game is IB, and now that Rift is in the rotation I can't even play it. I'm sure you're right, as well as increasing the light level and reward for the year 1 raids. Just not enough to get me back to playing with The Division and Primal on my rotation.
-
How about the Y1 strikes? Those getting an upgrade? I miss running them...
-
G8 b8 m8
-
I'll believe it when I see it
-
The same stuff like this happened in year 1 with people claiming to know the new fallen raid of Crota or crap like that. I gurrantee the day the update drops, OP will never come back to this post.
-
How credible are you as an information giver? Do you work in the media in some way?
-
Edited by TheVikingWolfe: 3/21/2016 12:40:58 PMSource? People keep thinking that those three taken guardians just have shaders on. What if in the new strike we have to fight famous actually Taken guardians? Kabr, Praedyth... just a thought Edit: I realize that the guardians of old didn't wear POE armor. This was more like wishful thinking along those lines.
-
I like your confidence. Sounds good to me
