2. There’s New Legendary Equipment For Sale… But There’s a Catch
So the good news is there are LOTS of new legendary items to buy from all of the vendors you have come to know and love, using the same vanguard and crucible marks that you have collected… The bad news is that in addition to marks, for many items you now need something called “commendations” to complete the purchase.
Commendations are earned by ranking up in a specific reputation. For example, once you move up in Vanguard rank, you’ll receive a commendation for purchasing new equipment. For most, this should come naturally as you play, as the time it takes you to get enough marks should at least put you close to getting a reputation rank up as well. However, just keep this change in mind if you’re looking forward to logging in and immediately buying up all the new gear.
