A Glimpse into Earth’s Lore

Destiny’s story and lore is one of the least explained and least known things about the game so far. We got a taste of the story in the beta, with two major storylines having started: The Hive’s presence on Earth and the story of Rasputin, the last Warmind. Keep in mind this is only a small sliver of the lore! To get invested into more Destiny lore, be sure to check out your Grimoire cards.

Vanguard Pre-Order Bonus

Bungie just released this video detailing what the Vanguard pre-order bonus will bring. Check out close-ups of the exclusive gear here. Pre-ordering Destiny gives you access to the Vanguard Armory, which includes: Exclusive Weapons Exclusive Armor “High above the City, in the Hall of Guardians, The Vanguard keep watch over Guardians in the wild, arming the best warriors with the upgraded weapons they need to destroy our most dangerous enemies.”

AI Behavior

The AI in Destiny is phenomenal, even on the normal difficulty settings. Just imagine the difficulty and sophistication once we’re able to access raids. A big thanks to Alexxd94 for these images and descriptions! [divider]

Item Crafting

Published on: Jul 20, 2014 @ 9:38 Item customization and crafting. It’s a thing… right? Well… As Guardians buy or salvage new equipment, they learn to tinker and improve. This work requires Glimmer and other material. Some can be recycled from unneeded gear. Titans favor plasteel, which can be found by disassembling old equipment. Hunters unspool discarded armor into sapphire wire. Warlocks extract hadronic essence from dismantled fieldweave robes. In the early game, for at least what’s been shown off so far, it doesn’t look like we’ll need to do too much besides gain experience to upgrade our equipment. However
