Reddit user Ben826 shared these findings on the Destiny subreddit, having unearthed the information in the wake of yesterday’s update. We’ve seen plenty of other fans use similar techniques to gain a sneak peek at new weapons and gear in the past.
We already know that The Taken King centres around Oryx and his Dreadnaught, with the ship being the exact location for the new Raid set to be added to the game with this expansion. Now, we have a complete guide to the rewards players can expect to receive for besting the King’s Fall Raid.
The Raid armour set for King’s Fall is as follows:
Warlock set
Helmet
Mouth of Ur
Harrowed Mouth of Ur
Chest
Chasm of Yuul
Harrowed Chasm of Yuul
Gauntlets
Grasp of Eir
Harrowed Grasp of Eir
Boots
Path of Xol
Harrowed Path of Xol
Titan set
Helmet
War Numen’s Crown
Harrowed War Numen’s Crown
Chest
War Numen’s Chest
Harrowed War Numen’s Chest
Gauntlets
War Numen’s Fist
Harrowed War Numen’s Fist
Boots
War Numen’s Boots
Harrowed War Numen’s Boots
Hunter set

Darkhollow Mask
Harrowed Darkhollow Mask
Chest
Darkhollow Chiton
Harrowed Darkhollow Chiton
Gauntlets
Darkhollow Grasps
Harrowed Darkhollow Grasps
Boots
Darkhollow Treads

As you can see, each item is accompanied by a Harrowed variant with a different color scheme. At present, it’s not clear whether the distinction between the two is linked to the difficulty level that the Raid is completed at, or some other element of the King’s Fall Raid that we’re not aware of yet.
Looking more closely at the perks of individual pieces of equipment, we start to see references being made to specific King’s Fall mechanics. There’s mention of an aura, as well as relics — but the most interesting is a note about Guardians being ’torn between dimensions’, probably as a result of the actions of Oryx.
This leak reiterates Bungie’s efforts to refresh Destiny with the release of The Taken King. The mechanics that are being hinted at suggest that lots of work has gone into making the King’s Fall Raid as engaging as any content to hit the game so far — and the rewards for completing it look great, too.
Destiny wasn’t the game that many were hoping it would be when it launched, but since then the experience has evolved a great deal. If The Taken King can live up to its potential, Bungie may well have completed one of the most impressive turnarounds in recent gaming history.
Destiny is available now for PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360 and Xbox One. The Taken King is set to release on September 15, 2015.
