RaF “Controversy”
The rewards are simply for looks, and don’t help anyone play better or have better gear. Datto makes a strong point when he notes that almost every other popular MMO has some sort of “recruitment” program, and advises players to view the program as a cool bonus, not something malicious. But then again, the timing of this sucks, and there’s tons of room for improvement.

The Weapons to Look Out For – Auto Rifles & MIDA!
When asked about what he expects to succeed after the 2.1 balance patch, Datto was quick to point out that auto rifles might see a resurgence in the Crucible. Before it drops, make sure to grab some of the best of them:
Zhalo Supercell: Its strong chaining exotic perk can actually do a ton of damage in 6v6 game modes, and it’s already loaded with strong range and impact.
Zarinaea-D: If you’ve been collecting Armsday packages, you might have noticed this Hakke auto rifle. It’s in the mid-impact range, and is regularly provided by Banshee with strong stability rolls. It’s a solid gun that’s easily attainable if you’re still looking for an auto.
Doctrine of Passing: A member of the high rate-of-fire archetype, bullet hoses were once made fun of, but no more… this can be acquired in Trails, and it’ll drop with strong PvP perks like Counterbalance or Hidden Hand.
