In the MMO shooter Destiny the new DLC “House of Wolves” is coming. But what will happen to the old raids “Vault of Glass” and “Crota’s End?”
There are still a few questions surrounding the DLC “House of Wolves.” One of the most important: What happens to the old raids?
There are mainly three questions:
- Will the “new” exotics that come with House of Wolves drop in these raids?
- What level, what stats will the exotic weapons and armor have in these raids?
- And will the old raids get a new difficulty level or will they remain at 30 and 33?
Where do you get exotic weapons and armor from House of Wolves?
One question now has an answer. In a conversation with IGN, Bungie clearly stated: Exotic items will continue to drop in the two old raids, now with the new “House of Wolves” level. This will likely mean that you need to “level them up” – like the previous ones, but you won’t need to “upgrade” them additionally.
The exotic items will still be available from the Gorgon chest and Atheon in Vault of Glass and from Ir Yût and Crota in Crota’s End. Additionally, Nightfalls still have a chance to drop exotic items.
Bungie also states that you can still upgrade exotic armor and weapons with “old” stats.
“Vault of Glass” in the House of Wolves trailer
The theory of New difficulty levels for old raids are coming gained additional momentum, as a part of “Vault of Glass” was seen in yesterday’s “House of Wolves” trailer.
On the English-speaking fan site Planetdestiny, it is speculated that it could possibly play one of the new story missions in “Vault of Glass.” Or it was simply included in the trailer to make it clear: Yes, the old raids still play a role. They are worth it.
Information, where the exotic items, which come with House of Wolves, can drop, are currently unknown. Probably, the “Prison of Elders” is a safe bet. Exotic rewards are supposed to be included, and it is likely that this also includes the new exotics.
