How to unlock the weekly heroic/nightfall (found on reddit):
After booting up the new Destiny expansion, The Dark Below this morning, I completed the three new story missions. Upon finishing the questline I saw that the weekly Heroic and Nightfall missions were blacked out, telling me to "complete the new quests."

Utterly confused, I ended up doing a few more bounties for Eris, the new NPC, and found out how to unlock them. It's not straight-forward, but here's how to do it!

First, go to the Tower and grab the initial quest piece from Eris. She is located to the left of where you spawn. Complete the three story quests and pick up the "kill 25 Knights or Wizards" bounty. Repeat the second DLC quest on Earth two to three times to finish it. As a tip, you can delay the death of the big enemy to spawn more Knights and Wizards. Turn it in.

Grab the three new Patrol quests that Eris will produce. Go to Earth and select Patrol. Your first stop is to the right of your initial spawn. Go through the facility and past The Divide, then burn past the Rocket Yard. Act like you're going into the Sepiks Prime strike. On your left after the first tunnel past the yard you'll find a specially marked Hive enemy. Kill it and the subsequent spawns to get your first bounty.

Next, reload the Earth Patrol to start from the beginning. Go straight ahead to the complex that was in the beta (or the campaign, really), where you kill a Wizard for the first time -- just go due north and up the hill into the complex. Right before the stairs to said Wizard room you'll find a marked Thrall in the corner. Kill it and the rest of the room for the second bounty. Do not reload, continue on through that area.

Finally, keep heading up that building and past the Wizard room. Go into the area with the original loot cave. Head into the big building due north (right next to the cave), and run until you get to the big open area of the Terrestrial Complex. Go straight ahead into that tiny landing, steal the urn, and kill the enemies that appear.

After all that you'll unlock the new Strike and the Heroic/Nightfall weeklies. Just to be clear, none of the above steps past the "25 kill" bounty are located on your radar nor are they fully explained.

You do not need to wait for Xur to unlock the new weeklies.

TL:DR - beat the three story missions, beat the "kill 25" quest, complete all three purple Earth Patrol missions after.

No that's just for 1 strike and a couple new exotic weapons.

@TripleAgent @Tic Tac T O Let me know when you want to run. I'm definitely waiting until I'm lvl 31 before I mess with this Crota Raid. Cats are all level 30 and struggling on every stream.
I should be on more or less all day.

EDIT: Just bought two new armor pieces from the Vanguard guy, Light goes to 33, so I guess less or no old raiding is needed. Just grinding and a billion Helium Filaments :snoop:

from what i can gather the best weapon for me since i use autorifles, will be the second autorifle from vanguard... low impact similar to shingen e... but a range upgrade... and built in high stability... perks arent great.... but i value range and stability alot.... range still basically lets u snipe nikkas with an autorifle with the shadowprice....

cant lie im excited as fukk to play tonight

edit: its the one with 38 bullets forget the name

Also... did they really only put the DLC maps in Clash/Rumble and not in Control? There's only 2 new Crucible Playlists for the DLC and Control isn't one of them.

So you have to be Level 6 in the Crucible to be able to get Level 30 Gear from there?

Nah I said that because I think you get the "commendation" pts by ranking up. So if I turn in some bounties I'll go from 5 to 6. I'll get the commendation and be able to use my crucible pts to get the gear. i'll have to jump another rank to purchase the helm though. (if I understand that right)

Edit : looks like you were right. Crucible 3 rank is required to get the commendation points for when you rank

Wish they would have offered us lvl 5 or 6 guys 1 or 2 coins to start with though. I'm thinking i'll get one after I turn in my 3 bounties as you can see i'm very close to lvl 6

easy way for them to change the vault:

instead of giving a dedicated amount of spaces for each thing (gear, weapons, others), they should just let us do whatever we want with the spaces....i dont use the gear spaces cause all my gear is on the characters, so it's just sitting there, wasting...
