6 exotic armour pieces received changes with the update today. Some really good changes to Synthoceps and a few other key pieces. There should also be more to follow later in the year which will be a nice addition. Hunter Mechaneer’s Tricksleeves While you are critically wounded, swapping to a Sidearm increases its damage (2x in PvE, 1.33x in PvP). The Dragon’s Shadow Dodge reloads all weapons simultaneously. Dodging now also grants +5 mobility for the duration of Wraithmetal Mail, in addition to its previous benefits. Added a UI indicator for the Wraithmetal Mail buff. Titan Lion Rampant Hipfiring no longer interrupts Lift. Increased hipfire accuracy while airborne. Synthoceps Now grants a flat melee damage bonus for 8 seconds when you are surrounded by three or more enemies (3x in PvE, 2x in PvP). This buff also increases Super damage while active (+50%). Warlock Lunafaction Boots Now allows your Rift to continuously reload weapons while you or allies stand in it. Empowering Rift grants a boost to weapon range and aim assist. Sunbracers Solar melee kills now grant unlimited Solar grenade energy for a short duration.

Worlds first yesterday was done in over 6 hours. With some top youtubers and streamers taking a considerable amount of time to complete it. All in all there's massive praise to this Lair, quite a few saying its the best raid since WotM which is saying something as its a Lair and not classed as a full raid. It is at the top of the Leviathan and it will complete that raid on the large ship with a full raid expected in September. From what I seen from the first part it was 4 pads you have to rise and only can do it with a ball that you can throw to teammates with eventually throwing it into the middle. You have to do that part 4 times. Didn't see or hear much of the mechanics after that. Its a 370 level raid. When there's info anyone has to help understand how to do it please share it here.

Calling all Destiny FG Guardians! I fear that the light has been draining away as you struggle to make your path back through the forest and into the City we once called 'Home'. You should fear no longer. The Traveller begins to draw strength as Guardians locate Exotics that are being forged in Light and Superpowers and will be ready in time for May (approximately a week to be precise). New sources of treasures and secrets to find, the calcified fragments infused into 45 targets of Data that requires collecting from the dusty ice caps of Mars. The Hive begins to move on to one of our defences, we must delve deeper into the Warmind to expel all darkness and Gods that try to take over our Universe. Nokris has returned and we need to multiply our damage levels to run at Night to slay the Prince and take is unique strike treasure to pastures new. We must tune back into our loyal, albeit crazy Lord Shaxx to bond as one FG team and rise through the ranks to Legend level and watch the sweet precious loot drop and pick up a super powered Pulse Rifle. Once we have finetuned our marksman skills, The Leviathan is approaching fast and this is where we must finish the final encounter and climb the Spire to the Stars to ensure no more Worlds are Eaten and grab the most powerful and spectacular looking Armour, fitting of any Guardian. The time is now to listen to the voices in the trees. Follow your way home to the promise land. As a final guidance, if you take a right instead of left, through the portal where time turns back, you must ensure you reinstall Destiny 1 to stop Aetheon, Crota, Oryx and Aksis combine forces. Tldr - Reinstall Destiny 1 and Destiny 2. We need to party up and get the FG family back again, complete goals with each other, help others which we always wanted to do. Only good times ahead.

Well, it needs some life and i'm glad we hear Josh Harnick talking some sense when he explains they have decided to push weapons more to the OP side of things. I'd rather have more guns to talk about in PvP and be able to say 'what the hell was that gun that shot me'. The Dawnblade at 2 minutes in looks exactly like you want it to look - fast, powerful and causing havoc (not to mention annoying for a Titan). Like it's been said by many people that follow D2 still and want it to be good, this will hopefully make the PvP side much more interesting, whilst they still need to focus heavily on sorting out the PvE side which I have my fingers and toes crossed for May's update. One thing I did see online is that they are still listening and considering Random Rolls and Weapom Slots as 'extremely high' up the discussion ladder at Bungie. I feel if they could one of those at some point Shotguns and Snipers would have a place again. I may pop on for some PvP later in the week to check out the speed differences.

Let's face it, you could probably go for any gun in D1 as most guns in D2 are pretty lacklustre, but if you were asked to bring an exciting gun back, with all of it's perks, what would you choose? For me, it would be Vex Mythoclast. If we could bring back the chase for the gun too, I would as it was the gun everyone wanted at one stage. It looks magnificent and it wrecked in PvP for a serious amount of time. It also sounded amazing (pew, pew, pew). If it had to be a Legendary gun, it would've been Corrective Measure Machine Gun. I had an extended mag on mine which made it 100 rounds and it wrecked boss fights.

Following in Blizzard's path, Destiny will get its first Webcomic starting next week. First one is about Osiris when he was part of the Vanguard and how and why he was exiled. For lore fans like myself but hopefully people that enjoy any type of background story, this is a good move. If they're anything like the Blizzard ones with Overwatch these will definitely be appreciated. They'll be available for free on Bungie.net

Over Chrsitmas the community managers are trying to be as clear as they can to advise what is being recorded and being looked into. They have a list, which isn't in any order, that they are very aware of in terms of feedback and things that need addressing. The list is below: • Eververse • Mayhem • Vault Space • Endgame - Strikes, Raids, Item Collection • Crucible - Gametypes, Team sizes • Sandbox Balancing - Exotics weapons and armor • Three of Coins • Curse of Osiris: Weapons Forge Questing • Masterworks and Weapon/Armor Modifications Deej and Chris Barrett have confirmed next Thursday's blog (11th January) we will receive a developer update on next things coming. Top of the list will have to be Eververse because of feedback of late. I'd rather here about content first but each to their own. Really happy team size is on the list and hoping for anything related on that. Also, we should find out Crimson Days (Valentine Event) will be back as datamining found the logo on some exotic ornaments. What do other people want to hear specifically from that list or something that is missing?

“The Traveler is awake. For Humanity, a new Golden Age has begun. This year's Dawning is unlike any other—it's not just the renewal that a new year brings, but the dawn of something greater. Now more than ever, we must gather together in the Tower, at the Farm, and all across the system to give thanks.

Arrekkz has done a decent video of what Masterworks are and do. It seems to be getting some initial good signs as it partially gives you a chance to re-roll a certain stat e.g. trying to find Rangefinder perk for a Shotgun and with an additional 10 power points. A little work still needs to go into the mod system that sits alongside it but I'd like to think its one step forward on this part so far. One point to note. Make sure you check all legendary drops before dismantling them now as they may roll a decent masterworks that you may want to keep rather than sharding it for a random perk to be added on an existing gun you have.

Post your favourite or even funny pics with shaders here! I have the Virgin Media Sparrow (Athena Victorious) with the Raid shader (Calus Selected). Changes the base colour from red to gold with white. Love it. Also, the trials AR, Prosecutor, turned the opposit from white to black using Midnight Talons.

Some amazing diagrams one in 2D and one in 3D have been made by the community. This will help people understand where they are supposed to go to find each section depending what keys they have dropped.

On Friday 20th October, there is going to be a live stream from Bungie letting us know all about Seasons. I'll dig out the questions more specifically they're asking when I can, but there's expectations building to see what are they going to reveal and more importantly what new content / variety in gameplay will we see from Season 1 to Season 2. There's also a side chance we'll know more about the first DLC too. I'm gonna guess we'll get quite a bit of info on the community feeling that the game seems lost in most places when it comes to endgame. What do you people want from Seasons? I definitely want some new modes introduced and new milestone books created to map what you do each season and see it in game. Hopefully can be fleshed out with different challenges. I also wouldn't be surprised if they extended the EDZ further as a 'free' update coming as part of the new season.

Prestige raid was due at the rest tomorrow but has now been delayed until Wednesday, October 18 at the previously set time of 10am PT (1pm ET, 6pm BST, 7pm CEST). Apparently Bungie took to their forums to advise that the delay is a result of an exploit that would cause encounters to be easier than they were intended. “To allow time to fix this issue, we are delaying the start of the Prestige Raid until next week,” I personally thought they would be buying time to change the progression for the loot last minute. I'd like to think we will be getting some sort of changes upcoming now as after Iron Banner there isn't anything else planned.

The IGN feature today got me remembering and realising how much I enjoyed Destiny 1. You can not beat the sound of your favourite Exotic smashing on to the screen with a massive thwomp. My other love is the Vex Mythoclast shooting in Crucible, ending with a Crucible kill sound. So satisfying. One of the worst has to be on Prison of Elders when the alarm goes off for the bombs. Yeah, you know it's horrible. What's everyone elses?
