If Bungie is going to move forward with this new dungeon price strategy, AND continues to double dip with paid content and Eververse, the absolute least they can do is meet the industry standard and put Silver in the Battle Pass, in both free and premium tracks. Their Battle Pass is so weaksauce.

Almost every multiplayer game these days has a Battle Pass or something similar. Destiny is no exception.

However, compared to other games, Destiny’s Battle Pass is incredibly weak. You get a bunch of random garbage—some materials, some glimmer, a couple weapon rolls you’ll instantly dismantle, a single skin aka an ornament set, and one exotic ornament at level 100.

The usual suspects are there, too; like finishers and emotes, but nothing too crazy usually.

In addition, you get these pointless boosts to various things…usually after you’ve already played the season a ton. “Extra drops maybe if I play Crucible?” Not really useful at rank 85 when I’m already burnt out for the season.

Other games (that are actually F2P) offer premium currency not just in the premium track of the battle pass, but also in the FREE track as well.

In addition, if you buy a battle pass, and you complete the battle pass to its max rank for the season, you will earn enough currency to buy the next season, using the currency you earned.

Full disclosure, I hate Battle Passes and all of the monetization/microtransaction hell we have found ourselves in.

BUT, if this is our reality, the least Bungie could do is make their Battle Pass on par with the rest of the industry.

Dedicated players could earn enough Silver to maybe buy one Silver ornament per season, or more casual players would be able to buy every season using the currency they’ve earned from reaching Rank 100.

Players get more skins, “free” seasons, and engagement stays super high—seems like a win/win-ish for everyone if Eververse is here to stay, which come on, it is).

Because as it stands…if Bungie doesn’t add Silver to the Season Pass…what’s the point? Dungeons are some of the best content in the game—if you take them out of a season, why would I want to buy that season?

Because it seems like with this change the season value proposition continues to go down. Take Season of the Lost for example—the only thing really worth it out of the entire season (that costs money to get, you can get Lorentz free) is Ager’s Scepter.

Astral Alingment isn’t fun really, and all of the loot is pretty garbage. The Shattered Realm is cool the first time you go through, then it’s just tedious and its loot is also bad. Every season is a 6 player horde mode that you can’t fail, with recycled mechanics and enemies (Astral is just heavy ball dunking, with Last Wish Eye of Riven, and the Riflemen as a boss).

What will the fractional currency be if we move to a silver standard?

When gold was our primary currency, silver was used for fractional money transactions. Now that our population has skyrocketed, there’s just not enough silver to go around as a primary coinage.

Nothing to see here....How much silver is in a standard solar panel? About 20 grams you say....We'll need 100 more factories like this one to meet energy goals? This won't make a dent in silver supplies will it......nah.

https://www.politico.com/news/2022/01/02/georgia-solar-factory-biden-industrial-policy-526287

DALTON, Ga. — Tucked in the back of a nondescript industrial park in north Georgia, a factory sits as a symbol of what the Biden administration hopes will come from America’s new, bipartisan experiment with industrial policy.

Here, 700 workers at Hanwha Q Cells churn out more than 10,000 solar panels a day. It’s the largest operation of its kind on the continent.

The factory was hailed as a renaissance for domestic manufacturing by local and national politicians alike when it opened in 2019, partially in response to then-President Donald Trump’s trade policies. It is a place where, like in decades gone by, employees without advanced degrees have the potential to earn a wage that keeps them out of poverty by making a product essential for the American economy.

If President Joe Biden has his way, the factory will also be a harbinger of America’s economic future. The U.S. will need more than 100 assembly plants of Q Cells' size to produce enough panels to power Biden’s energy goals, which envision solar providing 40 percent of the nation’s electricity by 2035, or ten times its share today. And that’s to say nothing of the metals and technological components that make up the solar panels — all of which Democrats hope to push companies to produce stateside as well.

[US-CA][H] Sneakbox MGA Standard Silver (v2), ProjectKeyboard Alice PCB, Hiney 3/4 FR4 plate, MGA plates, MGA PCB, and more! [W] PayPal

timestamp

Prices include Paypal fee and shipping, CONUS only. Comment before PM and please do not use chat. BUNDLE priority. May listen to offers to unbundled pieces, depending on price offered

I would personally love to not sell and build the Sneakbox silver MGA instead, but I have recently switched jobs (dream job :) ) and have very little time and feel bad letting this silver MGA build sit in my queue for so long. This amazing keeb belongs on someones desk being used or built/admired daily.

Item Price Notes
Sneakbox MGA Standard Silver Alice-style keep (v2, released/shipped early/spring 2021) with hot swap PCB, case foam, alu plate, POM plate, and FR4 plate - lots of options for tinkering and finding your perfect setup. If bundle purchased buyer will receive 6 zeal stabs and 80 Alpaca Linears (factory lubed, bought from PrimeKB) 320 USD happy to send prospective more detailed pics of any of the MGA as needed; just PM me. Bundle includes 3 plates: sneakbox Alu, sneakbox POM, sneakbox FR4 plate. Will substitute FR4 plate with Hiney 3/4 FR4 plate if buyer choose with no price change.
Sneakbox MGA Standard Silver Alice-style keep (v2, released/shipped early/spring 2021) 200 USD
Sneakbox hot swap PCB (older one, not the one with underflow) 40 USD
FR4, POM, and Alu plates for MGA 30 USD each Would prefer to just sell as bundle with MGA, but if you really want then will sell $30 each shipping included. Please don't fight me on cost. The price per item may be cheaper on sneakbox site, but will always cost more with their minimum $10 shipping.
Honey 3/4 FR4 Alice plate - fits MGA 30 USD If you bundle MGA I will substitute this FR4 plate for the sneakbox FR4 if the buyer so chooses with no price change

You have to have a bit of history on this particular set to appreciate it. I saw one at auction many years ago that sold for $200. Other than that I’ve only seen pictures and the description that I am giving below. Regardless, it’s a fascinating story that deserves telling.

I can’t cut and paste the Intel from the website I got it from but if you look up this coin, there is a description about it out there that is quite fascinating.

In short the guy was trying to make his own money that had real value back in 1983. And even got so far as to convince the treasury to do the same which in theory became the birth right of the American silver eagle.

However he got imprisoned and lost everything…. And the only thing left is a faded story and these type sets that I now possess.

And I actually have the prototypes for other coins from this company as well…. If someone happens to be particularly interested.
