Sounds like it makes it so you don't have to get to the next actual level (or previous light levels) to effectively do more damage, it's more incremental.

Such as armor increased when using a solar class. Or better defense when a burn is active.

Exotic Blueprints are cool… but why not go all the way and give us Legendary blueprints too? Bypass the vault issue entirely. Double the space is good, but it'll have to keep growing each year!

Since Legendary guns and below can be given to you with different perks, it may be more difficult to catalog not only all the Lengendaries but also all their variants. Sounds like a UI mess. :)

Because Legendaries all have different rolls. Would you like to have a Blueprint for every single roll possible for a weapon?

I thought the apartment would have been the perfect solution :-p

A clan dojo, like certain other games have would have been even better. Statues of the founding Guardians! Clan Objectives! Resource donations for Research! 1v1 combat room! Clan Wars!

If you like your roll, keep it in the vault. Otherwise dismantle it. But you want it back! Make it from a blueprint with default perks. Reroll it again if you want. Either that or have the game just keep one legendary blueprint per weapon, and if you get another ask if you want to replace it.

locked

2111 views

Have it just be a default version. If you take it out, you can reroll it after all.

I would actually be ok with this. Only for the simple fact that once you acquired the blueprint then other weapons would have a higher chance at dropping.

I still kind of feel the same way as I used to about crucible bounties. Wouldn't this make it worse since now there's tons of reason to do them? If it's anything other than winning, won't you have people on your team trying to satisfy the bounty conditions, possibly to the detriment of you?

For a brief second Deej put the cursor over the Frontier shell. Didn't screen cap it. Waiting for Youtube.

(1) If I have a specific roll for my year one Light Beyond Nemesis (Strength 130) and I shard it, will the copy I can buy in the Exotic Blueprint console retain the 130 roll? If later on I receive a Light Beyond Nemesis drop with a higher Strength 135 roll, will my blueprint update to the new value?

I'm assuming the answer to that one is "yes", but it'd be nice to be sure.

(2) If I've leveled that Light Beyond Nemesis to fill out all perks, I will have spent 75 armor parts, an exotic shard, and a great deal of experience and glimmer (time). If I shard that helmet and then later decide to purchase it from the Exotic Blueprint console for 125 Legendary marks, will I receive a leveled copy with all perks unlocked, or will it require the same (considerable) effort and expense to level again before it becomes fully useful?

Given Bungie's general attitude toward player time requirements, I'm guessing that the answer to that is "no" - we'd have to level it again. Which makes sharding exotic items that I've already leveled to free up vault space unwise - IMHO it would cost too much of my time and effort to rebuild what I'd already done, I'll just have to keep wasting vault space storing all my exotics.

I have MANY exotic weapons that have one or less upgrades unlocked. I'd be just fine losing that progress to free up some space. But it would suck for ones I've nearly fully upgraded.

My understanding was "improve existing guns using a more powerful gun." It looked like you need to sacrifice a gun with a higher attack rating than the gun you're improving, and it would raise the weaker gun up to the attack value of the sacrificed gun. Essentially Ascension without the etheric light. If my understanding is correct and this mechanic is usable immediately, there must be at least 2 possible attack values for legendary TTK guns.

I think they just had a lot of bulletins to hit so there wasn't much time for fun spontaneousness (even the vault build-up seemed planned), but they made me a smile a couple of times despite that.

locked

You're right, I'm sure a lot of folks have unleveled (or near unleveled) exotics and this would let them save space until they decide to level them. I'm an edge case with every (XBox) exotic weapon and armor ascended and maxed, so the blueprints do nothing for my vault space issue.

It was no small undertaking. I only finished yesterday. I'd really rather not have to do it again, though I suppose no one is forcing me .

Still, I'm much less likely to re-obtain some items. The Arachnid will be first to go.

I dont think so. They werent anything crazy. Win 7 matches, do 3 dailys over the course of 3 days, getting points by winning games. Its not like getting headshots with sniper rifles, the other vendor has those. I am really excited to have a Crucible way to get ensured high tier drops. Just doing the nightfall got old. Now I can play at my own pace and do this. I dont have to get a team together!

The Makeshift Scarf...
I don't want to wear a hood. Given that they now contain defense stats that affect your light level, how much of a negative impact will that have on my character?

Would there be no way to infuse them?

Could we get other, non-hooded scarves?

No capes!

(To a lesser extent, I rarely wear butt towels with the Titan. Same issue tho.)

If I'm right and the blueprints don't store weapon progression, you'll need to keep all leveled exotics in your vault or character inventory (63 items). You'll only use the blueprint screen to buy new versions of existing exotics, but once you start leveling those you'll need to hang onto them in your inventory (another 26 exotics for a total of 89).

It's a good thing the vault space was doubled, I'll need half just to store my leveled exotics. Honestly the exotic changes have raised far more questions than answers for me.

You know, you don't HAVE to pull out every single Blueprint at once...

Even if you were to unload en entire character's weapons into the vault, that's only 27 slots.
Do things piecemeal and only what you plan to use.

I'm betting more than two attack values. I bet it's somewhat similar to vanilla Destiny. Remember how you found Light Level? How it trickled in, finding gear with like 8 Light, then finding some with 15, then 18, etc, until the Raid Gear was the top tier gear.

I bet that happens all over again with Attack and Defense values as we go through TTK, with end game activities (especially the Raid) giving the most powerful gear.

It looks as if pulling an item requires materials. Year One exotics required an exotic Shard, and Year two revisions Legendary marks. So, it's not like the blueprints are free vault space. You're still going to want to have stuff in the Vault.
