Destiny live stream of Taken King gameplay with developers today at 1pm central time. Should have lots of new info about Taken King.

So I've been playing for about 3 weeks now. Got to level 30 by purchasing Vanguard armor and finding one legendary engram.

A random guy rushed me through Crota normal and hard mode last night. Pretty badass. Got a Fang of Ir Yut and a few other pieces.

What is the order of the endgame raids/activities? Seems like my Vanguard legendaries are better than the ones I got from Crota.

Vault of Glass> Crotas End> POE> Vendor

The vanguard and crucible vendor weapons are no where close to the glory that are VOG Raid weapons. Although they (excluding Mythoclast and Necro) will be phased out as Year 1 weapons, no one can deny the awesomeness that are the VOG weapons as a whole and some of the Crotas End weapons (The Pulse Rifle, Scout Rifle, Sniper Rifle and Rocket Launcher).

Once you experience them (especially the VOG legendary raid weapons), you'll pour out some of your beer for their passing as they fade into the sunset.

Any details worth noting? I see the OP of this thread has failed to keep us informed

- Your light level will automatically be your new level in TTK.
- crucible and vanguard marks are now called legendary marks. It will be converted and transferred over. 200 is the amount in your wallet, but no limit to what you can earn.
- 16 bounty spots
- Double the vault space
- leveling up will like when you were 1-20 in the first game.
- if you complete all 5 crucible bounties in one week, you get a chance at an unknown reward like nightfall.
- exotics that you already found in year 1 that are upgraded to year 2, will automatically be accessible to you to purchase.

This is what I caught casually listening to it while at work.

To add to this, not every Year 1 Exotic will have an upgradeable Year 2 version they said on stream.

They also introduced an item called a Spark of Light or something like that, which basically boosts one toons level straight to 25 so you can start TTK.

They discussed about the armsday stuff a little bit and how that works. But Tuan pretty much covered what they talked about. Cannot wait for 9/15 even if I'm going to be super busy with other stuff.

They needed to move on from year one weapons. Gjallarhorns is one of a handful of weapons that literally everyone uses in PVE and makes it stale. Same thing with thorn/last word and a shotgun.

I used to run around PVP with a legendary hand cannon and a fusion rifle before I really started playing a lot and switched, because fusion rifles (outside of mayne Plan C) are now worthless, and non-exotic hand cannons don't hold a candle to exotics.

Hopefully the new meta brings in some variety, but I'm sure three months from now 80% of players will be using the same four primaries and the shotgun dujour.

Some cool looking Destiny/TTK Xbone Backgrounds that I saw on the Destiny Reddit earlier for anyone that might want to use them:

Hunter - Nightstalker Subclass/Spec
Titan - Sunbreaker Subclass/Spec
Warlock - Stormcaller Subclass/Spec

Late to the party but I'm finally 32 and stuck on PoE. Either I'm terrible or this game has a huge difficulty curve once you get to end-game.

Me and 2 other guys ran 32 PoE for 3 hours last night. At least 2 hours stuck on the last boss because he kept regenerating.

Any tips for the crucible part of the bounty? I finally got it but for my hunter.
