Quick Vers:

-Iron Banner Stuffs (Control)

We've received a lot of feedback from previous Iron Banner events that players preferred a way to directly acquire items. We have added the ability to obtain armor and three different weapons from Lord Saladin during each event. Here is what he has to offer next week. ...

-Armor Masterwork

The Benefits

• Each armor piece grants 3% damage resistance while using a Super
  • This stacks for a 15% damage reduction if you have a full set of Masterwork Armor
• Masterworks armor can be reworked to a different stat package (Heavy, Light, or Restorative) for one Masterwork core and 10 Legendary Shards

- Raid Reward Rework

• Raid Armor: Now With Raid Perks!
  
• Double Drops
  
• Raid Encounters Always Drop a Raid Piece
  
• Raid Vendor Sells a Rotating Selection of Raid Gear
  
• New Item: Exotic Raid Ghost "Contender's Shell"

-Patch Note Preview (1.1.2 update on January 30)

• Prometheus Lens
  
  • Flame Refraction perk now generates ammo instead of pulling from reserves
    
  • Increased base damage
• Fixed an issue where new characters created after the release of Curse of Osiris were not receiving the Flashpoint milestone
  
• Players in social spaces, like the Tower, receive a notification when their Lost and Found at the Postmaster is full
  
• Heroic strike completions now have a greater chance of granting Exotic rewards
  
• Mercury challenges are now available during adventures
  
• Fixed an issue where Curse of Osiris strikes were not properly granting Clan Engrams when featured as a Nightfall activity
  
• Fixed an issue where Challenges were not appearing within Quickplay
  
• Increased the dismantle timer for Masterwork Cores

- Shader Talk (Go read the full text)

• It should be easier to get rid of a stack of shaders. We are looking at mass exchange solutions.
  
• We know you miss D1 Armor Shader mechanics. Looking at ways to re-integrate that capability without losing the ability to shade weapons, Ghosts, ships, Sparrows, or customize specific pieces of armor.
  
• We also understand you want shaders to be more freely usable and not limited by availability. We’re looking at re-introducing shader collections or a way to get copies of a shader in your possession.
