Bungie should make old gun events!

Yes

314

No

38

An event where you have to go into a strike playlist that's leveled higher for difficulty (level 34) and each strike has random modifiers much like nightfall/heroics. All are possible except the nightfall one, and heroic should always be on. Maybe even exclude matchmaking due to the heightened levels, that's up for debate and I'm indifferent. All engrams dropped from enemies should be from TDB and Vanilla weapons will drop at the endgame reward screen. No rolling them is allowed as they are old guns, you get what you get. Maybe they could use the Speaker or something also to sell buffs to increase drop rate of engrams, or increase chance to get a specific gun type at the end game screen (sniper rifle, assault rifle, hand cannon, etc). Maybe instead of it being on a timer it should last for so many strikes instead, like 5 strikes have increased chance or something. Etheric light may also be purchaseable during the event from the Speaker, based on how many strikes you do, since you'll have to upgrade these weapons now. Maybe after every 10 strikes you can buy one for 5k glimmer. I think this is a solid idea to help give the game steam during this lull until September, and it doesn't even require much effort, and will be loved by players. What do you all think? Discuss ideas or changes you'd make, if they sound solid I'll include them in the OP.

  • This is actually a really great idea. I would be all for it. I think it would be easier to just put them back in the loot tables. There are certain places (like tiger strikes) where old engrams can drop, so they still exist in the code. I just wonder why they decided to go about separating items into two distinct tables and preventing one from appearing at all. I really don't understand removing the armor. If they did weapons due to reforging, I can somewhat understand, but many people kept their old legendaries and in some cases can now have a slight advantage (final round snipers). I don't really care about the perks of the gun, I just want to see more variety. I'm tired of getting the same guns/armor over and over.
