In the latest weekly update, Bungie has shared some details about upcoming events and expanded on some of the changes announced yesterday. One particular bit of information caught our eye though, and it has nothing to do with magical loot caves.
Reader Michael Hansen sent us a tip yesterday of a coin hidden in a tree in the Tower. Bungie says that if you happen to find all of them, you’ll get a special player emblem only available from Bungie. We don’t know how many there are, but if you find them, take pictures, and post them in the weekly mail bag post first, you’ll be able to crow about your victory.
Bungie also says that The Vault of Glass, Destiny’s first raid, has been completed on Hard. We shared with you the story of PRIMEGUARD, the first team to conquer it on normal mode (after more than 1,600 deaths). A different clan, Invigorate, has conquered it at its most challenging.
The matter of farming loot caves has also been addressed, with Bungie promising ways to pry us away from those spawn points. “The last safe City on Earth needs more hunters than farmers, though, so we’ll do what we can to inspire you to complete missions of variable difficulty under new, challenging circumstances,” writes community manager David Dague. For now, there’s a new loot cave that’s been discovered.
If you're planning on playing this weekend, you can jump into Salvage match as part of a time-limited playlist. The Iron Banner will be making a return from October 7 through October 14. This mode uses your weapon stats in multiplayer rather than equalizing for balance.
