I think it would be a wonderful Holiday addition and tradition, if Bungie would place a big ol' Christmas tree in The Tower during the Holidays. Just picture it, golden yellow glowing Engrams hanging from every branch. For a splash of color, maybe throw in some white, green, blue and purple engrams too and maybe some of those triangular 'item drops', as well. Ooh, and maybe Eris's box of raisins hanging from the tree, as well...with some orbs of light mixed in too! And the tree topper could be an Exotic Ghost that puts on a light display...or something (hmm....maybe a mini-The Traveler, snow globe).
Players can then interact with the Engrams and collect one green or blue one per daily reset, which would produce a random weapon, piece of gear or ghost, based upon the players level/light level. And they could also get two free Legendary Engrams of their choosing-- 1 Weapon (Primary, Secondary or Heavy) and 1 Armor (Helmet, Arm, Chest or Leg).....
[b][u]AND[/u][/b].....one time only, you could pick an Exotic Engram off the tree and be guaranteed to get a weapon or piece of gear that you haven't already discovered and/or own. 1 Free exotic per year, guaranteed to be something we don't have, isn't too much to ask for...especially around the Holidays-- now is it? I think it would add some exciting to this time of year and would be a wonderfully generous way for Bungie to show their appreciation to their loyal players and Community.
Just imagine waking up every morning, logging in, racing to The Tower and then visiting that gloriously golden Engram Tree and unwrapping a most spectacular present. Christmas morning every morning for a week!!! (...or maybe 2). Now that would sure get me excited to log in.
[b]Happy Holidays everyone! [/b]

Any vets here who remember what Bungie "gave" us last Christmas?😂
-
I think everyone should have 5 exotics for Christmas at 320 light totally not for TG or anything whaaaat noooo
-
It would be great, but Christmas is a religious holiday so they would probably offend some people
-
Last year we got one random legendary
-
Do we get a celebration for Eid al-Adha? No, we do not. This means no religion gets a celebration.
-
Yeah, but they would have to call it a "Holiday Tree" so people like "LulzCraft" dont whine.
-
We'd have to buy silver to get the gift, get a ten dollar item that's worthless, except it can get you your present, which will, and always will be, a shitty legendary at 280 atk.

-
I would live that
-
It's Xmas*
-
How about a tree made of hive, cabal and fallen bodies? Littered with body parts and decorated with the heads of captains and knights :D And under it.... Wrapped in the skin of the Speaker... [spoiler]is year 2 thorn[/spoiler] XD
-
Your idea would murder the only grind left in this game... Bungie will never.
-
This is an excellent idea! Kind of seems like it could be a 12 days of Christmas event.
-
what are you on
-
Disney xur give enough free exotics.
-
I just want a good special! Mine is still 290!
-
Great idea!
-
this is bungie were talking about so dont get your hopes up
-
Why would bungie do this when they just sit back sip their coffee, and do nothing to "improve" the game Sparrow racing is not improving it, and microtransactions are pointless
-
Although I celebrate Christmas, I think that engrams look more like dredils rather than christmas ornaments.
-
I'd settle for having Destiny work for me again. No exotic engrams, no flaming sparrows, no lime, electric blue, and magenta shaders. Just a Game that doesn't say "Signing in", stick on that frickin' screen for 30 seconds, and then say "Destiny servers are not available". I just want it to tell me it's checking for updates, and to see the Select Guardian screen again. Can I get THAT for Christmas?! I was THIS close to reaching SRL Rank 3, maybe getting some 315-320 gear. And Destiny epic fails on me, and who knows when I'll be able to get in again. Or if.
-
As long as i can get Twilight Garrison, I don't care what festival/event it is, lol.
-
If you knew anything about Bungie, or Rahool for that matter, you'd know you're as likely to get a Common Engram wrapped in Exotic paper, as you are to get nothing.

-
I'd rather have a legendary tbh
