It goes as such:
Prison of Elders is reworked and light leveled-up to the new light cap. Starting at the lowest light arena, you get "taken" VoG gear. Then "taken" crota gear, so forth and so on. And at the highest level, "taken" versions of any of the raid gear drops at the highest light, randomly. This includes weapons.
Have a good day with this knowledge in mind.
EDIT: I cannot post my source, when April comes you will see. Thank you.
EDIT EDIT: Keep discussing, guardians. April Update will show this to be true.
Edit #3: For all the naysayers: you have an opinion, fair enough. Let the update show you. Make sure to Necro this post and look at how doubtful you were.
FINAL EDIT: What Urk said does not invalidate this. I said it means that gear drops in updated PoE, which isn't the old raids.
FINAL FINAL EDIT: Looking deeper, Urk claims old gear won't return. But wasn't Darkhollow and "Harrowed" Darkhollow gear listed as completely separate? Do keep that in mind.
LAST MINUTE UPDATE: The new strike, Blighted Chalice, will be in the Hellmouth and involves Fallen who have mistakenly freed Malok, whom we all know from the Hunter legendary helmet listed in the armory.

Kinda stating the obvious.

You got 50 upvotes. Congrats on that. Not sure how though. It's not even funny, not even real or based on any sources. Not sure why people find your post entertaining. But grats, you won 50 Internet points.

Scorch cannon Oryx returns infused with Vex technology Cabal come to stop regular Oryx but now face Techno Oryx and give us some of their heavy weapons. Fire lord with Cabal shield New Gjallarhorn Mini gun Psions Technology

Can you confirm if the weapons will be elemental or not? Does this include class items? will the armor change colors with shaders? Do the queens weapons count? Will the weapons have the same rolls? Are sunsingers being nerfed?

Edited by A 7th Spectrum: 3/22/2016 3:21:48 PM1. How precise is your "source" 2. Plzzzzz let it all be true. I want my beer opener Titan helm from VoG back :(
-
That makes no sense at all... Why would you get taken versions of CE and VOG gear in prison of elders??? :/ the fact you can't name you're source = all of this is BS.
-
I'm selling on this one
-
Next update will have the taken VoG set or Crotas End taken set. I assumed that this would happen. I am actually quite surprised that nobody else caught on. Though this information could be fabricated. So keep your vigilance.
-
Poe update Followed by trials update is my guess
-
Who -blam!-img cares
-
Lol this may actually be possible.
-
I believe it's bullshit because the possibility of Bungie making a good decision, especially with older content, is practically nil.
-
I didn't know you were psychic
-
Would be cool to have taken versions of all the raid bosses in POE imo.
-
#makedestinygreatagain

I wouldn't be surprised but I can't imagine this being received well unless they make Poe something it never was. An actual horde mode that's challenging. Something like confluxes on vog / way less down time between rounds and actual waves of enemies.
-
You guys are all assuming what's coming. Don't assume, hope.
-
I honestly believe you. I'm fine with it too because I liked PoE.
-
Honestly, Taken gear doesn't seem to work lore-wise, and neither does PoE dropping gear from other raids. Why would there be Taken in PoE, if we removed Oryx? Can someone else Take enemies? Who's overseeing the Reef, since Mara Sov and Uldren are lost? Skolas is also eliminated, so why go back to PoE? Then again, Bungie made the Grimoire viewable on a 3rd-party site, so questionable decisions regarding lore are sure to happen.
-
This sounds interesting. Thx bud.
-
I hope your right, sounds fun. Even though bringing Raids up to speed would be awesome, this would be pretty cool.
-
Confirmed no old raids have a good day
-
Im sure its just a taken shader. I agree all the gear is in PoE and updated to 280
-
Well urk just confirmed through Twitter that CE and VOG will not be coming in the April update So your POE theme is looking to be 100% true. Would be cool to see armor sets becoming available, but that sounds like a such a cool idea that it probably won't happen
-
Hey a Bungie employee named Urk just tweeted that you are a bumfck liar. Sorry bro.
