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.

Edited by YourFNFD: 3/22/2016 12:52:38 PMData mining says the update will include new shaders with tactical and visual effects...... and new strike is in the Hellmouth. To me the idea of raid gear in POE sounds very lame.

Hmmmmm....I could make a Taken Deathsingers Gaze look goooooooooooodd. We shall see.
-
I believe you bro, sounds sweet
-
In december, bungie said the next update will be "an event of the size of SRL". A strike and a new PVP map sounds about right.
-
Who cares anymore...
-
But I would like to blend in with the taken[spoiler]to watch them twitch it's weird if you watch for long though[/spoiler]
-
I doubt its taken shaders, THAT, would be a nightmare in PVP.
-
You said CROTA gear would drop and now your not? Lol. We knew you were wrong just face it, kid.

See's picture, assumes his theory is right. This happened with the Sleeper Simulant pictures. EVERYBODY was wrong. You will be too.

Edited by GrayWulf25: 3/22/2016 3:09:23 PMNo VoG or Crota gear - you made that up, the rest is guessed from the image plus the bits we all know from official updates

Edited by loonigus: 3/22/2016 8:09:15 AMOne thing is for sure... Its a PoE rework. Everything else is just speculation. Doing a "taken" reskin of old PoE gear would be a suicide and the shitstorm it would casue would make the planet explode. I just hope that the taken story arc will be finally closed and we can be hyped for a new enemy type in the big DLC comming later this year. My personal guess: The taken form is part of the Strike where we get "taken" in some form. Its not a shader, its not armor, but rather just a plain strike mechanic. I can already taste the salt. Not just ordinary salt. It will be salt of the purest form.

It's looking like you'll be right. If so, what a disappointingly poor update.

I personally know someone who thought about one day working at Bungie and am typing this as as service to all about what the update will consist of: -light levels will be over 9000 -New Beyblade subclasses for each class -new consumable "Sourdough Jack" from Jack in the Box accessed codes gives your guardian the ability to instakill everyone in a crucible match (including your teammates) - a "Get em Luke" consumable which makes your TV or playing surface touch screen so it can sense the money being thrown at it And finally a Deej suit inspired shader that allows your guardian to split 1000000 times in 2 seconds like the taken psions. You can thank me later guardians.
-
This is fake simply because Bungie hasn't taken it down yet.
-
fkn hate taken
-
IMHO, the UPDATE is perfect. Perfect because it gives ZERO reasons to consider coming back to play Destiny. Thank You BungieVision. The lack of effort is appreciated.
-
Yo, it's okay you were wrong.
-
Your wrong, been proven.
-
reused assests? possible the factions have re-skinned vanilla gear FWC has re-skinned vanguard robes from vanilla. i would preffer taking low level blue item models and making gear from those as many haven't been reused ever. I mean look at tengu operant gear it's engraved and everything and would make a great higher level set as it's very unique from all the models at the endgame.
-
It seems possible
-
Allready played poe, nothing new sadly
-
Urk has already said nothing about the old raids is coming in the update. I don't think the taken guardians are gear or shaders for us, rather it makes more sense that they're the new enemy type in PoE. Some of the guardians who invaded the dreadnaught were taken and we've captured them in the prison of elders where we will go fight them.
