No longer have to wear class items to gain reputation. Instead you “pledge allegiance” to gain rep for a faction, one at a time. Turn in unwanted materials for reputation.

No longer will I be forced to wear fugly ass Future War Cult items!

I did feel bad that there were lots of "pointless" class items. This solves that problem, while (hopefully) opening up faction-exclusive quests...

Edit: I should have read the whole thing before posting, I keep seeing awesome shit!

An Exotic gained through multi-step search quest on the Dreadnaught; pieces are hidden all over.

Sounds like it could be really fun to do, hopefully it doesn't just turn into "look up where the pieces are on the internet" and involves some cool puzzles or something.

There's the rub, no? Hopefully it involves things that are difficult to execute, such as an extended platforming sequence, or requires beating each of the summonable bosses to piece the weapon together... Maybe an alternate use for the Crux of Crota sitting in my vault?

All Exotic unique namesake perks are immediately unlocked.

Okay, that's just awesome.

It'll be interesting to see how this affects older exotics, such as Suros (people will avoid the Focus Fire).

If it weren't so much damn work, makes you want to delete your characters and do the old subclasses just to see what the stories are for them.

There's a lot of good stuff in here, but this part made me wonder:

“Weapons, armor, class items, and even your Ghost shell all offer perk customization as well as increased power and light for your hero.”

Emphasis mine. We've already heard that leveling in TTK will no longer be a function of your armor. However, this sentence suggests that light will still be a thing in some way - so, I wonder what it does now? Increase overall damage (or damage resistance?), speed up cooldowns? Some other mechanic that we don't even know about yet?

Interestingly weapons even had light levels in the E3 build:

Not sure if it's related, but it is curious.

“No Time To Explain” is an Exotic version of the Stranger’s Rifle, sort of.

Perhaps this is the gun that was spotted in the trailer and tentatively ID'd as Fate of all Fools?

I'd bet on it. It did look VERY similar.

Sleeper Simulant is a Heavy Fusion Rifle that charges an over-penetration laser through enemy targets and bounces off walls.

Interesting. The idea of heavy fusion rifles has been thrown around the community before, I think Korny even did a pretty impressive workup of a concept.

“Quests from the ominous Eris Morn lead to the rediscovery of a forgotten weapon type.”

Someone said the other day that they thought they'd spotted a sword in a heavy weapon slot...

An elegant weapon for a more civilized age.

I don't know why, but for some reason I just imagined holding a lance while riding your sparrow... goodness that could be awesome (or lame).

Thats alot!!

I will miss the crazy Control matches losing 5000- > 20000. Mercy rule will be interesting!

FTFY.

I won't.

I will say I'm very excited about Zone Control. King of the Hill games were the only gametype in Halo that I won regularly.

Was thinking the Same thing Kermit!

I really wish, PLUS you get a free character up to level minimum to play taken King DLC!

... TKK is almost sounding like a full blown sequel! Not quite Destiny 2... maybe Destiny 1.8 or something like that :)
