Hey everyone, <\/p>\n

Like we did a few weeks ago on the Livestream, we\u2019re going to continue to talk about how Destiny <\/i>will continue to evolve this Fall and beyond. This update is about how we\u2019re changing Eververse. <\/p>\n

We\u2019ve already made a number of changes to Eververse in Season of Opulence (we\u2019ve redesigned the store, we\u2019ve made Bright Engrams only include Year 1 gear\u2014and have it bias heavily toward giving you items you haven\u2019t unlocked in your Collections), and we\u2019re going to make more changes to the economy, store, and armor in this fall\u2019s patch. <\/p>\n

Armor <\/h3>\n

It stinks to go to the Eververse store and see an item that looks cool and then seeing that the item has bad perks on it. In fact, when we\u2019re setting up the armor, we\u2019d twist ourselves up in knots to make sure the Eververse armor sets didn\u2019t have good perks. We did this because we want the best way to get sweet perks on your armor to be by playing the game, not shopping for enhanced Hand Cannon loaders at Tess. The root cause (dating all the way back to Destiny <\/i>1) is that Eververse armor has always had perks\/gameplay capability as a part of the package. <\/p>\n

We\u2019re done with that. As of this September, all<\/u> Eververse armor is being converted into Universal Ornaments. These Universal Ornaments can be applied to all of the Legendary armor sets we\u2019re releasing this Fall. They override the look of your equipped gear while preserving the perks, mods, and stats of the original item. <\/p>\n

Any Eververse Armor you have acquired in your Collections will have its Universal Ornaments automatically unlocked for use on new Legendary armor. For example, if the song in your heart is to have your Titan roll with the 2018 Tin Man-esque Festival of the Lost Helmet, you can put it on any of the new Legendary armor coming to the game this fall. <\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

Work in progress build.<\/p>\n

Evolving Bright Dust
<\/h3>\n

Historically, the best way to earn Bright Dust in Destiny <\/i>2 has been to buy a bunch of Bright Engrams, shard everything from the engrams, build a giant bankroll of Bright Dust and then spend it when the Warlock Dire Ahamkara helmet shows up the Bright Dust row in the last week of the season. We\u2019re going to change this. <\/p>\n

This Fall we\u2019re changing Bright Dust from a pay- and\/or play-to-earn currency to a play-to-earn reward<\/u>. We\u2019re adding Bright Dust as a reward for completing Vanguard, Crucible, and Gambit bounties. We want all players to earn Dust for playing, not for spending money and destroying a bunch of items in their inventory. After you complete all your bounties for the week, there will be an additional avenue to keep grinding out Bright Dust. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s also been pretty uncool to go to the Collection screen and spend Bright Dust to get shaders or Ghost Shells or whatever. We\u2019re going to fix that too. Beginning September 17, Eververse items in your Collections will cost Glimmer and Legendary Shards. If you want to keep pulling out that Exotic Sparrow that looks like a motorcycle until you get the good Sparrow perk (Instant Summon), you can do that with Legendary Shards and Glimmer. <\/p>\n

Changes to Dismantling Eververse Items<\/h3>\n

Lastly, because we are changing the cost of pulling things out of the Collections, Eververse items will no longer dismantle into Bright Dust. This Fall, Eververse items will dismantle into Legendary Shards and Glimmer.  <\/p>\n

However, that means right now the absolute best thing you can do with all the Eververse items you don\u2019t use regularly\u2014armor, Sparrows, shaders, Ghost Shells, transmat effects\u2014is dismantle them. Sitting on a pile of Midnight Talons or Metro Shift from your Year 1 stockpiles? Shard \u2019em for Dust. <\/p>\n

That\u2019s right! Everything must go\u2014dismantle the extra stuff you have in your inventory, build up a huge amount of Bright Dust, and spend it on sweet stuff as it rolls through the Eververse store\u2014because on September 17, everything changes. <\/p>\n

TL;DR recap for Twitter:<\/p>\n

On September 17, 2019: <\/b><\/p>\n

\n
    \n
  • All Eververse armor (new and armor you\u2019ve already acquired!) is being converted into Universal Ornaments<\/li>\n
  • Universal Ornaments can be attached to any newly acquired Legendary armor<\/li>\n
  • Bright Dust is going to come from doing bounties, not dismantling things you spent money on<\/li>\n
  • Eververse items can now be pulled from your Collections with Glimmer\/Legendary Shards instead of Bright Dust<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n

    Before September 17, 2019:<\/b><\/p>\n

    \n
      \n
    • Dismantle all of your unused Eververse items to maximize your Bright Dust reserves <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n

      Thanks and see you soon,<\/p>\n
