Hopefully some other underwelming exotics are getting some love...

Sure hope I don't need to own them on the 15th to get them in my collections. I shared those useless things months ago!

Yeah, now is the time to buy up, 360 lyfers.

Paying $60 now for what you would have paid $140 across the initial releases is good on the software front. Lot of attractive console options out now too. Start thinking about it, peeps.


Still debating the $40 for TTK on 360.

Well it still applies to previously bought DLC, doesn't it? So if you already bought the DLC for the 360 you'd want to get the $40 edition that just has the game and the new expansion, and use the free carry-over DLC you already bought, right?

We had a thread about this, and it doesn't look like it.

I don't want to rehash it but you can read about it here.

That said if anybody does buy up and has a different experience than I did, please post it! Would be nice to save that $20 if it's possible.

Find a decent contract, and I'll jump right in ;)

Gjallarhorn already does almost twice the damage of any other rocket launcher. So year 1 Gjallarhorn will probably do just as much damage as the best year 2 rocket launchers :)

This bit makes me a little sad

"Now that my nameplate displays my Light and Level, where can I strut my Grimoire score?
It will be displayed under your Level when your Guardian is inspected"

I rather like my Grimoire score. It was sort of a way to tell how well rounded and/or how much of an enthusiast a player actually was. I didn't give people respect for the level, I doubt I will for their light level, but I always did for Grimoire...

Yeah, I was a little surprised by that change. I think the potential issue with Level and Light being displayed is that eventually, everyone will have the same Level and Light. It was nice that Grimoire scores were so varied even among equally-leveled players.
