Treasures of the Lost are not cosmetic only
Pay-to-win has come to "Destiny". As part of the Festival of the Lost, players can use silver to purchase Treasures of the Lost. This random package could include items that speed up weapons upgrades and glimmer farming. So, remember when Bungie said silver would only be used for cosmetic items? Well, they aren't.
Micro-transactions are a slippery slope. The community needs to keep Bungie from going down that slope. Make your voices hear. Raise a ruckus. Let the Bungie faithful assail your revulsion of micro-transactions and pay-to-win. Let them see your resolve. Until Bungie relents and goes back to making "Destiny" the game it should be, we hold the line.

These aren't cosmetic items only. They include consumables.
Edit: Keep responding. "STFO, "Never go full . . .", "You're an idot". It's all there already. Every reply bumps this post and keeps the pressure on Bungie to avoid going pay-to-win. And yes, I know some Guardians would love it if "Destiny" went pay-to-win and they could just buy a Gjallarhorn 3.0, but that's not the game I bought.

Answer: [spoiler]there is none[/spoiler].... Well not exactly the difference is the value you place on the item. I could care less about these consumables because they won't make any different to the current game, but he is arguing on the fact that there is even an item the exists that isn't cosmetic... If you can't see the difference well... Bungie you win. Masks off you you. P.S: Anyone remember the days of farming for glimmer like crazy to upgrade exotics to 2.0 versions. We never know what they will do to the market. Sometimes glimmer is worthless sometimes you will be spending hours to farm for it.
