Destiny To Get More Ghost Shells Which Have Actual Influence In Game

Up until this point, there is only one other Ghost variant in Destiny, and it came with the exceedingly expensive Ghost Edition of the game. It was red and white,  and remas the only way to customise your ghost in Destiny.

That is going to change in The Taken King. In a GameInformer article, two members of their team talk about what they learnt about the new ghost shells playing the game. Not only that, they go over how they actually impact things like light level and strength. One recalls that he picked up a couple in the time he spent with the expansion:

A few, and I wish I still had them when I got home! I'm tired of having the same ghost as everyone else. One of the ghosts that I found had a cool orange/blue color scheme. However, these new ghost shells are more than just an aesthetic change; your ghost now boosts your light level, just like other pieces of gear.

The other then continues:

Sometimes these shells might offer a choice to boost intellect, discipline, or strength, and you have to choose which boost has value for your current build. The ghost shells also sometimes have cool effects, like the ability to sense nearby spinmetal or other resources. There was even a perk that offered increased glimmer for killing Hive.

This is pretty exciting for me personally. I've wanted new Ghost shells for a while. Even as far back when the game launched last September, I wanted something new to dress my Ghost in. Here is hoping we get quite a variety going forward.
