There needs to be some changes to Destiny so that it's still fun and playable AFTER Destiny 2 launches. Factions: - Buffs and Perks, Factions need faction buffs, for example: New Monarchy faction buff would boost glimmer gained by 20%, FWC would boost ammo drops, Dead Orbit would boost ammo capacity. - Faction Rankings, daily rankings should be in place to provide a buff to the #1 ranked faction. Such as boosted Rep Gains and discounts on purchases. Instead of spending 150 marks on something you get like 10% off. - Bounties, factions need "jobs" that are worth 200-600 rep and completely separate from the patrol bounties. - Give the Faction Reps 3oC to sell. - Remove the faction requirement for exotic faction class items. - Give the Speaker his own "faction" just like Eris. Have him sell ghost different perks for ghosts. Zones: - More players. Double or Triple the Max Player Count. For example, combine 3 instances of the dreadnaught into 1 so that there's more folks to do things like the court, in the future. As players shift from TTK to RoI, there won't be that many people running the court. This change would address this issue as well as issues with how few players are running patrols. - Patrol Beacons. Remove them and allow MORE patrols to be selected via the Ghost. - Chests. Chests need to reward more glimmer and engrams need to be in more chests. There should be a very low chance to get exotics, a much higher chance to get purples and an even higher chance to get blues. - Public Events. Public events should reward temporary items and/or buffs that help while on patrols. A pike engram could drop that allows you to summon a pike at will, but it vanishes when you return to orbit. Or maybe there's an event or drop that increases the speed of your sparrow until you return to orbit. -Rep, MoBs killed should reward small amounts of faction rep, approx 5 for red bars, more for majors and ultras. Strikes: - Strikes, a new type of strike type that allows for up to 6 players needs to be implemented. These could essentially be Nightfall Strikes that scale in difficulty depending on the number of players. If say your group runs the Archon priest strike, instead of just the Archon Priest, you get another boss like Oculus Prime or Skolas wandering around as well. -Rep, MoBs killed should reward small amounts of faction rep, approx 5 for red bars, more for majors and ultras. Crucible: -Combined Arms needs to return with an increase to max players. -SRL needs to rotate in and out like Mayhem and IB. -Trials Matchmaking needs to pure SBMM. -Bring Back Exotic Crucible Weekly Bounties -Utilize older and newer maps in the rotation Engrams: - Undecoded engrams should still be dismantlable for marks and glimmer. - the cryptarch packages should reward 3oC - fix the display bug with the cryptarch on the reef, it's been bugged for over a year. - Allow engrams dropped to be traded between players that were in the same strike or raid or patrol. Vault: -Allow sorting, by Name, Type, Light and stats. -Increase the vault space and make them searchable -allow dismantling of items that are in the vault Gear: - Implement Gear Sets, so that players can more easily jump between specs. - Remove stats from all class items to allow y1 vanity class items to be used again. -Hard Mode Sets (Harrowed, Adept) need differences other than color palate swaps. Harrowed Raid gear should have all attributes (str, agi, disc), but only allow the player to select 2 at a time. Or something along the lines of boosts reload speed/ammo for the slot, and not limited to a specific weapon, "increases reload speed of ALL primary weapons". Weapons could get a perk like "shooting ammo picks it up" or "increased reload speed after a kill" on all the weapons. Ghosts: - I want to be able to buy different ghost voices, your ghost should be the announcer in the crucible. I'm not paying $5 for a dance, but I will pay $5 to hear my ghost shout "BOOOM SHAKALAKA!" with the voice of the NBA Jam announcer. I'd pay $5 to hear the real Shaq saying Shaqisms like "now that what I call a shaq-attack!". Illidan from WoW would be fun. Pam from Archer, DMX, Micheal and/or Bruce Buffer, Spongebob, etc, etc.. Social: - Tower Bar & Lounge, needs to provide a passive buff that doubles Experience for maybe 2 hours if you hang out and dance. - Tower Bar & Lounge, needs new music. - Tower Bar & Lounge needs a shady vendor who trades things like passage coins for synths or motes of light for ascendant shards or maybe he's a bookie, accepting bets on the SRL. Xur: -Remove him. Let the faction reps sell 3oC. Controls and Display: - Allow players to change the color of most reticles. - Allow shortcuts, for example allow me to save my Heavy Ammo synths to any button...R2, when I pull my ghost out and press R2, heavy synths get used. Or I save a Gear Set to Left on the DPad allowing me to easily change gear (outside of combat).
