I loved the unexpected "hidden" story mission.. (Destiny)

So you get the Urn from Xur, fill it up with a variety of bits and bobs from the Hive, kill Urzok the Hated, and then you get to run a new mission in the World's Grave area involving swords and waves of enemies in a circular room, as per usual. You fulfill Eris' weird eye fetish, and then she gives you...

Some gloves on par with the ones literally everyone has already purchased from the tower vendors?...

'cept these were totally earned. I already have Raid Gauntlets, but I swapped them out for a bit, because these give you 33 light from simply leveling them, while the Raid Gauntlets require Radiant Shards, and won't have more than 27 Light until you get more R-Shards.

For those of you who have finished this, were your rewards different? How did you feel about the quest/bounty process? I thought it was pretty interesting, definitely more-so than your standard exotic bounty. I wish exotic bounties were treated like this, culminating in some sort of semi-relevant story mission.

I liked having a multi-step process (though they could communicate the completion of each step better), and it was better that we didn't have to return to her for each new step (well, some we did)...
