Bungie: The Dark Below Will Have A Big Impact On Destiny

Don't think of The Dark Below as just another piece of downloadable content.

Developer Bungie has fully detailed Destiny 's upcoming expansion, which will launch next week on December 9.

As the studio said on their website , The Dark Below "will change the experience of playing Destiny for all." The in-depth preview outlines all the major changes fans can expect, including the chance to level exotic gear and weapons. You'll have to sacrifice the progression of that item but you can ultimately increase the Attack and Defense values. Plus, there's new Legendary gear and you won't need Ascendant Materials for Exotic upgrades.

Lastly, don't forget that the Light level cap increases to 32 and a new Raid, Crota's End, will also unlock on the 9th. Ready to dive back into Destiny ?

I'm going to try and resist for the time being. I finally managed to get away from Destiny after spending a ton of hours on it. I'm not about to go back just yet.

There is no leaving Destiny, Temjin001. You cannot deny your need to destroy the darkness and get great loot and show it off in front of the noobs in the towers.

It is your …… Destiny.

Cant wait!!!

i look forward to it, BUT with a little hesitation. ive been stuck on lvl 29 for nearly 2 months. i dont play every single day anymore, i play once a week just for the weekly stuff. the dailies arent enough drivers for me to go on bc i have an abundance of materials. i stopped doing VOG bc i never get anything useful. still i cant wait to see the new stuff.

I actually play almost every single day, though almost never on Friday and Saturdays cuz those are get-out-of-the-house-and-party days.
As a result, I miss a lot of what Xur has to sell… =/
But on the bright side, I have like 70 strange coins burning in my pockets.

One of the things Bungie said they have learned is that the Raid armour was far too rare and the new armour will drop far more often.

Hi Shaytoon. There are a tonne of things coming in the DLC which will help your situation.

First of all, the new Legendary gear that the tower vendors will sell (and will drop from rewards) will enable you to get to level 31. You will still need a full set of Raid gear to reach 32.

But thankfully, the loot system in the Raid is much improved over the VoG. First of all, the Raid gear will drop at a higher rate. Second, the game will pay attention to what Raid items you already have and steer you towards items you don't, and finally, the game will also pay attention to the last time you received Raid gear as a reward, so that you don't get too long without getting something good.

All told, the new Raid should be a great improvement over VoG.

Oh yeah… will be getting this!

Though, I'm wondering if anyone knows of any deals for the Destiny season pass?

the season pass is $5 less than buying the two DLCs individually. There's your deal. It's the same deal Gamestop tried to sell me when I picked up my pre-order copy from the store.

You also get a Legendary Hover bike with the season pass.

Destiny got old real quick…It's going to take a major effort to get me back.
