That makes sense. So you just want to have a ghost shell, and you plug in the mods you want.

I'll pass along feedback that you would like to see Enhancement Prism/Ascendant Shards drop from additional activities. Thanks for the suggestion!

You hate to see it.

Hey all,

Prior to Shadowkeep, we had conversations of how to respect the time players put in to earning these sets. As we were nearing the end of development for the release, we didn't have a lot of time to play with when it came to implementing a means to acquire the armor, and test it to ensure there we no issues.

There was no goal to give the armor poor stats, but we did have conversation that it wouldn't be appropriate to give players extremely high or max stat armor pieces out the gate. It would reduce motivation for players to earn new pieces or engage with challenging content in search of their desired rolls. The goal was to give middle of the road stats, which players could toy with to learn the new Armor 2.0 system. This gave opportunity for players to improve stats via masterworking and stat mods as they played the early-endgame... so to speak. We also wanted to ensure players could throw on the ornaments of previously obtained versions of the gea...

Yea I'm definitely getting it. It was a blast getting a double kill in playtest and then paying my respects to both opponents.

Where does the WITCHES BROOM fall into that? Since it is returning, but not from last year

It's not the same broom from D1 and will be available for both Silver and Bright Dust at some point during the event.

Will all the eververse items have a chance to be purchased with dust?

All of the new Festival of the Lost Eververse items will be available for Bright Dust at some point during the event. Some of the older items from last year are Silver only.

Oh boy, I have the hardest time trying to believe that. Me being at rank 97 and never seeing a single drop from anywhere, and let's be honest here, I'm not alone.

Something is seriously wrong with these weapons.

Yeah, to be clear...

I've reached level 100 (what am I doing with my life) and had a few auto rifles drop from Crucible and Gambit yesterday. Based on reports of players not seeing any, I was surprised at my luck!

That said, the team is aware of the chatter on drop rates for season pass weapons. I can't project a solution at this time, but they're looking at potential changes before the end of the season so you all can hunt some rolls on these weapons.

If a change doesn't come due to an issue in development or unforeseen circumstance, the learnings from this season will be applied to the next.

Cheers!

Are you witnessing this specifically when playing Strikes?

I've pulled multiple weapons and armor pieces from my postmaster, most of which came from Crucible or Gambit loot feed drops.

If you do not claim these prior to filling your postmaster, they will be lost.

If you have a video, please throw it my way and I can pass it along.

Thanks for the feedback! Will be sure to pass it along. At this time, they're a good source for armor if you're looking for more chances at stat rolls. New Light players also have a bit to chew on in terms of filling out their collections.

Still not enough to screw in a lightbulb, though.

“Out of the all the NM Hunts this was undeniably the worst to “figure out”. We decided to do it last when we were doing time trials, and after literally holding W through the first 2 we hit a bump on Crota for a good while. After being tilted for a couple of attempts we looked at our builds, talked about what was top priority, and what classes we needed to run to make it “easier”. The largest thing that would make him easier, and how we got the time trial triumph, was figuring out to basically global the acolytes and knights. Getting to Crota wasn’t an issue, we got there in like 7-8 minutes and figured the timer would be more lenient, but just getting the swords quickly and effectively was the issue. The solution: top tree Orpheus hunter tether to the rescue. One hunter could almost full refresh off of one add wave (just get it...

Strategy in the face of challenge. I like it.

Can’t wait to see what other strategies emerge.

We've been collecting feedback on the pinnacle power progression and giving it to the team. They are currently looking into improving this system. Thanks for sharing your experience, the info is helpful.

I'll pass along this feedback. Not sure if it would be retroactive or just apply to exotic quests going forward, but I'll let the team know its a desired change.

This looks to be a bug. Will pass it along!
