| Destiny Iron Banner changes have been revealed by Bungie |
DESTINY'S new Taken King secrets have been revealed by Bungie today, including the Iron Banner, Trials of Osiris and the Eververse Trading Company prices.
The Destiny update has launched, soon to be followed by the Iron Banner which will run from October 13 through to October 19, requiring a minimum character Level of 40 and a recommended light of 230.
Game completion rewards have been tweaked, with end-of-match loot now including both weapons and armour, while new emblems have been added to Lord Saladin's inventory.
In the Taken King, Lord Saladin now has three daily bounties and three weekly bounties that award Legendary Marks, it should also be noted that gear purchased from him now requires Legendary Marks, instead of Glimmer.
Bungie's senior designer Derek Carroll gave some background to the new Iron Banner tweaks, telling fans: "Iron Banner is about to kick off for the first time in Year Two. With it comes a brand-new curve for all power-enabled Crucible playlists.
"The Power Curve is a way of measuring the damage you do to players with a differing Light level.
"It’s worth noting that the Power Curve for The Taken King is more aggressive than any previous release for the first 3 levels or so. This means that, assuming everyone in your match is close to max-level (or “your level”), minor differences in power will matter more than ever.
