Thank you to everyone who upvotes and/or comments, it helps keep the post visible so people can be kept up to date.

Another SRL event I'm not able to do. Bungie really thinks about its customers.
-
No big complaints about the update. A lot of content for free. Strike challenges will be interesting and it will nice to have the IB back. Still, I am somewhat disappointed in not getting revamped Raid content and here's why (at least for me). As a primary PvE player we want to get the best weapons/armor for the most challenging content which provides the best rewards, i.e. the Raids. I can't get too pumped up about getting an IB (or the other new weapons and armor) if the only game benefit for me is that they may make Strikes easier. I will play the new content but not too much as I won't get much out of it. Again, this is just me personally. I would have much preferred that VOG and Crota's End be brought up to current light levels (which would make them as challenging as they were originally) with the rewards being Year 3 versions of their original weapons--can someone say Fate Bringer, Vision of Confluence, Black Hammer. But hey, maybe this could be our late-Winter/Spring update.
-
yeah .. Ive moved on past Destiny, just not the forums ....steady looking for hope
-
Can we just talk about how bad those Last Word skins look? The Black Spindle and Thorn skins look beautiful while the Last Word skins look like straight doo doo. How do you manage to make the Last Word look bad? Also, what's up with the solar and void Thunderlord rip offs still having the electricity effect in their respective thumbnails? What I have seen on The Dawning so far has not inspired much faith although I do really hope I am wrong and this new event doesn't turn out to be similar to Festival of the Cost. Festival of the Cost pushed me away from Destiny for a few months now and I'm hoping this new event makes the game worth playing again but I am not overly optimistic. Here's to hoping I am wrong.
-
I love the Red Death but those Ornaments don't appeal to me. In fact none of these Ornaments look that appealing to me.
-
Is it the 13th yet? Looking forward to doing those new quest lines. lol
-
Recycled content... i have been a HC fan since start. Im done with this game!
-
Been saving an SRL bounty on my hunter for a year in hopes that i can use it during this one.
-
So the wolf pelt weave armor will be legendary? If so I've always been a fan of that set.
-
Does the slr book need to be completed before the event ends?
-
Hey There, is the Icebreaker locked as only loot on nightfall strikes ? if it is so Bungie should think again.. :/
-
meh, not enough to pull me away from ffxv. good to see the live team doing well though, keep it up bungo!
-
Edited by theRonlyConly: 12/5/2016 6:12:05 PMWill you start from last year's rank? Or does your SRL rank start completely over from zero?
-
This, from first glance, looks like it will be good and what I was hoping the festival of the lost was going to be. My iingers will be crossed in the hopes that micro transactions don't run the show.

-
That taken black spindle is the coolest ornament yet.
-
Still have srl armor from last year, wonder if the perks & add'l rep gain from class armor will work for this year.
-
Dissapointed in TLW's ornaments. I was looking forward to them...
-
How do you earn srl gear again? I forgot because I wasn't here for srl last year...
-
I would like to know if all of the strikes i have already done will be counted for anything aside from shame?
-
Its amazing that poeple are somehow finding a way to complain about this. Good post though. Thanks!
-
Tengu is the best looking set of warlock armor besides the crota set (imo).
-
I spy with my little eye an icebreaker!!!!

Y3 Icebreaker: Bounty acquired through new Zavala strike bounties. Quest will culminate in mission similar to those in Gjallarhorn quest (According to VG247) I'm just going to leave this here: https://www.bungie.net/en/Forums/Post/219089432?page=0&sort=0&showBanned=0&path=1

I'm sad to say it looks like this will be everything Festival of the Lost should have been, but rather than making up for that disaster it makes me more mad that this makes it seem like they could easily have just done this for FoL too but Activisioned it instead. Basically, thanks but no thanks.
