The Dark Below, as it's called, will bring new missions, gear, and a level cap increase to the game.
Courtesy of Activision, here's the list of what's included in the The Dark Below:
  •         New weapons, armour and gear to earn, including Legendary and Exotic items
  •         Light Level cap raised to 32 and five additional Bounty slots added
  •         New story quests and missions – after years hiding amongst the Hive shadows, a new character, Eris, has come forth bearing an ominous warning: The Hive seek to summon a god, Crota, to destroy the Earth. Find Eris in the Tower to take on special quests that include three new missions where you will increase your Light and earn new rewards
  •         New co-operative Strike, The Will of Crota, pits you and your Fireteam against Omnigul as she works to expand the Hive army at the command of her master, Crota
  •         Three new competitive multiplayer arenas:
  •         Pantheon – set deep within the Black Garden in an ancient Vex temple that features Vex-designed landscapes and tight corridors
  •         Skyshock – an old interplanetary defence array that offers both vehicle and infantry engagements
  •         The Cauldron – an abandoned Hive ritual site that offers close-quarter combat
  •         New six-player Raid, Crota's End, set deep within the depths of the Hellmouth
  •         PlayStation platforms will also get access to an exclusive cooperative Strike, TheUndying Mind, and more (timed exclusive until at least Fall 2015)
The expansion will be available separately for $20, or as part of the Destiny's Expansion Pass, on PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, and Xbox One on December 9.

nice expansion, but the $20 price is keeping me away.
 
There's a bit there... But that price is a little steep regardless. Especially if you aren't playing on a Sony console (since one of those strikes is Sony exclusive for now).

I've not overly interested in the 3 new crucible arenas since I don't play crucible much. (Calling it now though the Cauldron is going to be hated because of tight quarters prompting tons of Shotgun usage. Pantheon may also be disliked for tight corners and shotgun use too...) So for me it makes the DLC cost kind of harder to justify.
 
I've seen a fair few shotguns. Most games I've played in Crucible have had at least one person using a shotgun one-shot me (multiple times), usually there are 2 people with them though. (Very few times I've gone a full game without getting shotgun killed.)

Though shotguns very much are a PvP thing rather than PvE. In PvE, like I've mentioned, shotguns have little range and against AI enemies punching damage is virtually the same. But in PvP punch damage takes 2 to 3 hits to kill where a good shotgun blast can one shot a person.
