My theory is they'll start doing weapon perks as prizes so like you get:

Luck In The Chamber - works on hand cannons, sniper rifles

As a random loot reward and you can replace a perk from the regular tree with it. Only way I see them keeping the carrot on the stick.

It's the director of the Taken King. It will be stick on the stick and carrot in my butt.

A non consensual carrot.

If the past is anything to go by it will be more rear end in a top hat Rng because gently caress off and die that's why.

Weapon rarity/color no longer corresponds to its ability. Every weapon has a fully-populated, fully-curated perk tree. Weapon rarity determines how much of the tree has been activated.

A common Mythoclast has no perks active.
An exotic Mythoclast has all perks active.

Have fun!

What they'll actually do is make it so only one gun of each type is any good. But they'll poison the drop pool with 20 garbage guns.

I'm betting Ghaul's counselor is going to be Charlemagne. Warminds are "made to win" and we've seen that Rasputin didn't give a gently caress and literally allowed 90 percent of humanity to die. So Charlemagne decided to gently caress off and find a way to win and he found it: a more powerful race than humans, who could face the Darkness better if they only had the Light.

Isn't Charlemagne based on Mars? Maybe Mars gets added for the warmind expansion.

Well, I always thought Charlemenge's Vault was an early concept for a Cabal themed Raid, so they could do that. Didn't Rasputin basically absorb the other warminds or something? I could see fighting a warmind being a really fun thing raid wise. We defeat the warmind, Rasputin comes in, absorbs it like Majin Buu or some poo poo, and says, "here's loot, GTFO"

If Charlemagne shows up in D2 it'll bear little or no resemblance to whatever it was when it was cut in 2013-14.

Also, the Consul is voiced by Frank Langella, who is, I think, the biggest name in the whole game. I think we'll see some more of him.

Does anyone have a link to that original D1 story thing? I just remember poo poo like The Speaker being in cahoots with like Oryx and there being the Dreadnaught in Year 1 and that kinda poo poo.

You follow the path

Yours to manipulate, to destroy and rebuild.

Now, in the quantum moment

when all become one.

One moment left.
One point of space and time.

I know who you are.

You are Destiny.


Charlemagne is the Mars warmind, and that would be sick as gently caress if we had dueling warminds

There's some mention in D1 of Rasputin taking over/"protecting" an incumbent or dormant Charlemagne or something? But idk, we blew up the weapons vault, so all bets are off

The consul guy is a cabal higher up. Consul is a specific and powerful roman position from the republic/empire so it's just a title for a powerful dude in the greasy rhino Roman Empire of the cabal

Being allowed entrance into the next raid should be determined by a 6v6 clash match of the two raid teams. Winner gets to zone in, loser has to queue up.

VoG would be way more rewarding if I got to deny it to some pve carebear poo poo lord in the forgotten ruins

Uh way to steal my copyrighted idea of a 3v3 match during the raid to determine which guys get sick loot drops and which don't. Make it halfway through so everyone is salty as hell for the last part of the raid.

Yea

I played some Pirates of the Caribbean game and it has some weird cooperation between crafters (the dudes creating the boats) and the pvpers (the ones fighting with the boats), the economy has some limitations around a few metals, makin controlling some ports very important. On top of all, the nations had some .....uh... intense lore to them. Like the french nation had.... frenchs, the spanish nation.... had spanish guilds, and so on. So nationalism was intense, 300%. And sometimes weird, like having a bunch of german guys playing in the spanish nation. Hyper spain-nationalist germans.

In mmos, if the parts are well made, you can forge these strange reactions. But they are complicated and source of infinite drama, he. But good drama.

Why cant everyone have access to quality loot? We are a civilized gaming community. It wouldn't be fair to deny people sick loot.

Just make one of the raids like a heist from GTA Online or something out of Division's dark zone where everyone gets good loot but you can get more good loot by backstabbing someone. I'm sure the Cabal have a vault full of rad guns somewhere, just do that.
