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. Edit: From Reddit [url=https://www.reddit.com/r/DestinyTheGame/comments/3qax5y/destiny_halloween_event_festival_of_the_lost/]https://www.reddit.com/r/DestinyTheGame/comments/3qax5y/destiny_halloween_event_festival_of_the_lost/[/url] 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.

    These consumables are nothing but reskins of the ones we already have. Seriously, pop a Chocolate Strange Coin (Cabal glimmer boost) then try to pop a Resupply Code. You can't, they share a common cooldown timer. These candy versions don't even stack with the originals, and let's face it we all have tons of these glimmer consumables already. I have 80+ Resupply Codes, do you really think I'm gaining an advantage because I have a corny chocolate version that does the same thing. Same goes for the weapon boost ones. Reskinned telemetries and nothing more. Pay to win? Give me a break.
