LvL 41 Taken PoE will let you level up to light level 320. From 320 you take the next step to level 42 PoE. This LVL 42 PoE will be called Challenge of the Elders. There will be a scorecard associated with it you can purchase for 100 glimmer. When you reach these checkpoints on the score card Variks will reward you, similar to Trial of Osiris. Challenge of the Elders lets you earn equipment up to the max cap of 335. No longer leaving you to farm the RAID. There will be 16 variations to POE lasting a total of 4 months. (So, don't expect anything for 4 months when this launches.)

It is said all gear and weapons are being looked at and upgraded to these changes. More detail on what will be upgraded and balanced will be revealed next week.
