For starters, the patch brings back Iron Banner, challenging players to fight each other for some hot new rewards and additional paths to obtaining desired rewards. Then there’s the implementation of armor masterworks to go along with the established weapon masterworks. Players will be able to rework stats on their armor if they’re disatisfied with what they get on their masterwork. And finally, what about some better raid rewards? That’s part of the package, too.
Destiny 2’s game director, Christopher Barrett, has been dropping all sorts of information and keeping the community informed on Twitter as of late. Barrett mentioned that the team is looking to improve the Trials of the Nine, hinted at strike-specific loot, confirmed that the Prestige Eater of Worlds update is still forthcoming, and said that the team will continue to import exotics from the original Destiny.
