Really hoping the factions accept Spinmetal and Helium as donations fairly quickly after Rise of Iron is released. I have 17 stacks of SpinMetal Leaves and 34 stacks of Helium Filaments sitting in my vault. I usually keep two stacks of each destination material on each character, while the surplus materials are stored in the vault.

I had 4 200 stacks and I used them all up EDIT: make that the week of the 8/9. I got my FWC bond doing that

I hope we get weapon balances and patches as well, so I can start sorting all the stuff in my vault I saved "just in case".
Fingers crossed for a fusion rifle / Scout /Auto meta!

I dunno about the weapon changes. It's kind of like they said everything was pretty much fine, and just did some minor tweaks to make people happy. It'll be interesting to see how the sniper rifle changes help make the Crucible less horrendous, but they didn't do anything about shotguns (with the exception of Universal Remote). I'm still not sure when I would ever want to equip a Sidearm, particularly in PvE.
Are those awards for the first daily public event completion per account, or per character? Goddamn.
Let's discuss best public event locations. I've always dug the conflux defense, my go-to's are generally Ishtar Cliffs and Citadel. Defending the Warsat is good as well, that Archer's Line event is extremely convenient.

They buffed Nirwens' and didn't nerf Lord Of Wolves. I'm set. Fallen Walker in the Divide is reliably easy, as well.

Moon spawn is reliable, as is the Cabal major farming loop on Mars
Maintainence extended if you didn't already know.

Archer's Line, Hellmouth, Ember Caves, Citadel, The Barrens, plus areas on earth with Warsats and extraction crew locations (minus Skywatch) were my usual haunts for public events.
Fabian Strategy and Lyudmila-D might be not quite as crappy, Boolean and No Time to Explain sound a bit better too.

I'm assuming the 15 marks for your first public event is per account just like the daily story/crucible until proven otherwise. I can't really see them allowing you to earn 75 marks everyday with such minimal effort.
Weapon changes are a big meh for PvP. Nothing they did with primaries is going to change the current primary meta. Nirwen's is still going to be a decent bit behind the Hawksaw archetype. Snipers getting increased flinch should make scouts and pulses a bit better. Shotguns are going to be just as dominant as always at close range. Sidearms might carve out a niche as their TTK is extremely fast with one crit and 3 body shots, and also very good with 5 body shots. Still, that fast TTK isn't going to beat the current meta shotguns within effective shotgun range, plus shotguns are just easier to use in general. That being said, I'll definitely be breaking out my god-rolled Ironwreath to see how it stacks up.
To me the biggest changes are the Universal Remote and Thorn nerfs. I can't really see either of those being top-tier choices anymore.

The inability to knock out a Super with a 1KYS feels like a contradiction from the Sunbreaker nerf a while back where you could only knock out their Super with a Black Spindle headshot. Maybe Efrideet's Spear is coming back? Shotguns will be prevalent because real sniping doesn't exist in the game much. That, and Supremacy will mean more shotgun usage.
