I can't wait two more weeks... looks fabulous.

Meh, no raid. I'll get on and try prison of elders since I already paid for it, but I may be done with destiny. Haven't even turned it on in over a month and this "expansion" doesn't seem to have enough content to draw me back in...

any finer details on how gear can be leveled to 34 yet?

if i have to wait weeks/months for xur to give me a chance to upgrade i'm going to be pissed off again.

Yeah, you can upgrade your current gear using a new resource that will drop from end game activities or any new gear that will drop will be 34.  Any gear you upgrade will not be reset, so you don't have to level it all over again.

well that part is good.   i (took a really long time) to stealth edit in the bit about xur.  any answer to that?

There is no more Xur upgrade... you only need a drop item from end of game activities to upgrade any Legendary or Exotic to lvl 34... no perk will be lost so you will maintain all the upgraded perks.

It is way easy and cool.

that is very good news.   what defines "end game".   nightfalls?   ...i can't do raids so as long as it isn't raids i'm good.

From what I know but not confirmed...

- Nighfall (random drop)
- Iron Banner (reward on Rank 3 and Rank 5)
- Prison of Elders (Random on lvl 28 and 32... lvl 34 and 35 will always drop)
- Trials of Osiris (random drops)

New Exotic Shotgun...

Looking awesome :p
