Twitter Relay: Armor Feedback

[quote]We've heard your feedback on the current Iron Banner armor set as well as the overall state of unique and compelling earned rewards. The overall balance in paid and earned armor cosmetics is off for this season and we're aiming to adjust our approach to earned rewards in the future. In the short term, today we will be changing the visuals of Iron Banner's Iron Beryllium set to instead use those of the upcoming Ancient Majesty set, shown here. The Iron Beryllium set's original visuals will be available in a later update. The Ancient Majesty set will now become the Iron Banner set and will not be made purchasable on the Eververse store. There will be a temporary issue where the gear will still show the Iron Beryllium set's original icons - we will fix this in a future patch. We also note that the theme of the set's name and Set Bonuses may not match the new visuals - we'll aim to update this as well. In addition to last week's incremental Ash & Iron reward increases, we're also working on bigger improvements to progression via the Portal on top of the Update 9.1.0.1 changes going live today. We will share additional information about these efforts in this week's TWID on Thursday. Expect additional communication over these next few weeks as well as a roadmap to communicate how we will roll these plans out over time.[/quote] https://x.com/Destiny2Team/status/1967984252554817870

  • Good. 100 vocal people on this forum won't be satisfied, but it's a good change, even if it's a small one.

  • I thought it was weird the actual drop didn't match the image. I like the set we're getting now better anyway. Thanks for the update! 👍

  • This is a good call. People will be salty either way, but still, this is a good call.

  • I don't want to downplay the fix. It's something and it's appreciated. However the new CEO is starting out with a dumpster fire on his hands. The previous leadership left him with a game that now punishes players for playing 90% of the content. THAT is the issue that MUST be addressed. How difficult is it to make weapons and armor from strikes, dungeons, and RAIDS drop at level? Why can't that be fixed? Do you really believe people will level up too fast through RAIDS? And if they do, so what? That's their choice. Please give players a reason to return to the TEN YEARS worth of locations you've created instead of forcing them into a limited set of content.

    That doesn't fix anything else that's wrong with Destiny 2 since the "Edge of Fate" DLC. I doubt you—Bungie—would have corrected it if there wouldn't be an "outcry" because of it. Even more, not even for decency. If you continue like that, there will be no one left to buy your Eververse items. Edit: The conceptual design of Gladius armor was already removed from ArtStation. People used this as a reference for their complaints.

What about the leveling ,and no progression from playing 95% of the game. Talking about " looks" should be 2ndary and gives a welcome smokescreen to the real problems! Geez. Oh yeah,what vault space are you guys keeping all your armor that's upsetting you????
