Quikdrawjoe Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 The Crucible changes sound decent. I'll hold judgement on the weapon balancing until I actually test it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beyondthegrave07 Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 I've been so out of playing Destiny ever since you practically have to buy all the DLC to do any daily/weekly strikes. Makes it impossible to get any strange coins. I might load it up during winter break, but I am not going to hold my breath for anything good.
