Hey its Willz828, So this was not my idea but i thought it was the coolest thing I have ever seen on these forums. It is and idea by JoshMdy
http://www.bungie.net/en/User/Profile/5721002
So I think this could be a good DLC to bring a lot of lore and content into the game, this is just an idea I'm throwing out there...
(General description first, then more details at the bottom.)
This DLC could introduce a new enemy and also hostile wildlife on all planets.
A new npc would show up in the tower. This would be a shady looking character dressed in unknown hunter gear, possibly a second agent of the nine.
This person would have reputation and offer bounties to hunt down a certain number of the new hostile wildlife. This would start the quest line. As you progress and rank up the npc, they offer new class items to buy.(ie. a wolf pelt cloak for hunters, or a wolf pelt titan mark, or a wolf tail wrapped around the warlocks arm as a bond(sorry warlocks, your class item kinda sucks lol).) As you hunt more and more wildlife, you finally find an exotic item. A claw from a young Ahamkara lodged in a carcass. This sends the npc histerical as they thought Ahamkaras were indeed extinct, and tells you that if you can find one and kill one you will be greatly rewarded, but you will need a good team to take it down....thus the raid becomes unlocked.
This would also bring in new public events. Like as you are patrolling a young Ahamkara swoops down and attacks and you must fight it off. Or some of the other new hostile wildlife goes berserk.
Ahamkara Hunt (Raid)
"Cryptarch legends say that in the days these beasts were hunted to extinction, Guardians found new strength after slaying them. Now there are rumors of sightings, and the strongest of Guardians are on the hunt to try and claim that power."
This raid would take place on a new section of venus, (that's where the Ahamkara can be seen flying) and should be very difficult with the final boss being a large adult ahamkara (dragon for those that don't read the grimoires). If you want an idea on size, play "the wakening" mission and at crota's soul I believe there is an Ahamkara skeleton wrapped around that room. After you successfully slay the beast, you and your fireteam should unlock a new subclass which would be named the same for all classes but with different specs...
Dragonslayer
Titan Dragonslayer
Solar powered
"You have walked through the flames of the beast, and you embrace them."
Super
Knight of Flame
Titan summons forth a blazing sword and shield of pure flames.
The melee button would swing the sword, the shield would passively grant defense with an upgrade option to do a shield bash or charge when you hit RT/r2.
Melee
Dragon Fist
Flame melee, if it hits as critical, the target is briefly blinded.
Jump
Thermal Rise
Can be upgraded similar to Lift.
Grenades
Cleansing flame
An aoe grenade that fills the air with fire doing dot to those it initially contacts.
Blinding flames
Similar to the flashbang but fire based and has a chance to highlight enemies for your allies.
Dragons snare
A grenade that can ensnare up to two enemies, restricting movement for 3 seconds.
Hunter Dragonslayer
Void damage
"Beneath the shadow of its wings you fight the darkness."
Super
Shadow Shot
Hunter summons a bow that fires an arrow of pure void energy, killing all in its path and leaving a damaging torrent in its wake. This arrow would over-penetrate everything until it hit a hard surface. For those that think this is weak, if used correctly you could essentially cut a crucible map in half with a shot, cutting off the other team.
Melee
Dark Blade
standard the blade charges with void energy for the strike. Can be a throwing knife that pins enemies in place.
Jump
Void Leap
Similar to the triple jump upgrade tier, but allows hunter to be harder to see and hit when jumping.
Grenades
Void blast
A grenade that explodes with enough force to knock back enemies.
Sticky grenade
A standard void based grenade that sticks to enemies.
Void Vortex
A grenade that pulls enemies in, doing dot.
Warlock Dragonslayer
Arc damage
"Those who see the lightning in the beasts eyes and live are forever marked."
Super
Lightning Strike
You summon the power of the dragons domain. You raise your hand calling lightning from the sky that hits you and arcs to enemy players around you. Could be upgraded to have the lightning arch off of the enemies it hit to another enemy, increasing its range.
Melee
Static Strike
Electricity arcs from your fingers, striking the enemy. If it hits as critical, briefly stuns them.
Grenades
Overcharge
A grenade similar in looks and animation to the pulse grenade, but with every pulse it knocks out enemy shields and charges allies shields back up.
Static Grenade
This grenade detonates causing enemies to become static charged for a short time, doing damage to any of their allies they get near.
Thunder Grenade
When this grenade detonates it causes enemies to go deaf(pvp) or dissoriented (pve) for a short time.
Since you get rewarded with a new subclass from this raid I saw no need for raid gear. However, after completing the raid, the npc would have new items for purchase in the form of "current level" dragon scale and dragon bone armor. The ahamkara armor pieces could be drops in the raid along with any new dragon themed weapons.
Also, when using this class you would get +10 to intellect, discipline, and strength when a piece of ahamkara armor is worn. This dlc would also introduce an ahamkara armor piece for titans(perhaps a young ahamkara rib cage as a chest piece) that could only be attained through this raid, along with the existing ahamkara armors.
(Hey its Willz again, thanks guys were at the top of trending keep it up! Also I i just read some more grimoire cards and it says the Ahamkara had much knowledge, so what if there was a part of the raid almost exactly like the second Hobbit movie. For those who haven't seen it, Bilbo is wearing a ring that makes him invisible while hiding from a dragon named Smaug. Smaug is monologuing and it is truly terrifying. Then all the dwarves are hiding from Smaug as he crawls over and around them. This encounter can be very similar to the gorgons.)
Please let me know what you guys think and I'm open to suggestions, thanks for reading.
Edit: Thanks for all the compliments and great ideas for tweaking this stuff guys!
Update: Looking through forums and keep finding this reposted!! it really helps Deej has to have seen this
