I think it would be a wonderful Holiday addition and tradition, if Bungie would place a big ol' Christmas tree in The Tower during the Holidays. Just picture it, golden yellow glowing Engrams hanging from every branch. For a splash of color, maybe throw in some white, green, blue and purple engrams too and maybe some of those triangular 'item drops', as well. Ooh, and maybe Eris's box of raisins hanging from the tree, as well...with some orbs of light mixed in too! And the tree topper could be an Exotic Ghost that puts on a light display...or something (hmm....maybe a mini-The Traveler, snow globe).
Players can then interact with the Engrams and collect one green or blue one per daily reset, which would produce a random weapon, piece of gear or ghost, based upon the players level/light level. And they could also get two free Legendary Engrams of their choosing-- 1 Weapon (Primary, Secondary or Heavy) and 1 Armor (Helmet, Arm, Chest or Leg).....
[b][u]AND[/u][/b].....one time only, you could pick an Exotic Engram off the tree and be guaranteed to get a weapon or piece of gear that you haven't already discovered and/or own. 1 Free exotic per year, guaranteed to be something we don't have, isn't too much to ask for...especially around the Holidays-- now is it? I think it would add some exciting to this time of year and would be a wonderfully generous way for Bungie to show their appreciation to their loyal players and Community.
Just imagine waking up every morning, logging in, racing to The Tower and then visiting that gloriously golden Engram Tree and unwrapping a most spectacular present. Christmas morning every morning for a week!!! (...or maybe 2). Now that would sure get me excited to log in.
[b]Happy Holidays everyone! [/b]

Yeah, but they would have to call it a "Holiday Tree" so people like "LulzCraft" dont whine.
