Strike Scoring
As well as the introduction of revamped strikes, we will also see Strike Scoring make an appearance. This will include Point scoring and the awarding of Medals for meeting certain feats such as Killing Sprees and certain weapon combos
Functioning similarly to Prison of Elders scoring, Strike scoring gives you a chance to earn rewards and challenge leader boards
Players can also earn reputation in a new Strike scoring for the Vanguard headed up by Zavala, who will also offer bounties.
It also should be noted reports suggesting Zavala will also hold Nightfall Bounties and this is a route to obtaining the Ice Breaker – This also suggests Ice Breaker is NOT obtainable through 3oC
Returning Strikes:
New Strike Specific Loot confirmed to be included within the new Strikes
Breaking The Ice
Along with the update we will see the introduction of NEW Exotics and a return of an old friend:
