I like the Solstice of Heroes. (Destiny)

I see tons of folks on reddit bitching about the grind (because they've not fully Masterworked their sets after a mere 24 hours into a month long event, undoubtedly).

LOL. I wonder if some folks are assuming it's 1 week, since that's pretty typical for Destiny events.

I'm usually in that camp, honestly, but I have a hard time seeing it this time. If you do the milestones every week, it seems like you'll basically be done, or at least pretty close to it. Mayhem next week makes the Crucible ones trivial.

Yeah, none of it seems that arduous, at least for people who play all game modes. Some of us don,t and consequently won't be participating in the armor part (not going to re-hash that here), but even for us there are things to get. I'm hoping that I manage to pull that Sturm ornament somehow.

I think Bungie really hit a cool balance for this--the reward is nice looking armor that will be a useless trophy in five weeks. It's neat to have, but no one is getting left out from some crazy exclusive stuff if they don't participate.

Heh, I like that part for sure. I'm not necessarily interested in changing my characters' looks at this point, so I'm not concerned about not having the armor at all. Getting a jump on my light level would be OK, but I'll get there eventually, so meh.
