No no, not the spider. There's like a super Hive Knight that spawns just outside the strike in the rocket yard as a public event. You have to kill him before he reaches the sixth checkpoint.

It's impossible though at this level, I've had 5 or 6 people wailing away at him, but he just ignores you and runs straight towards the last checkpoint.
Is there more than one Hive Knight event?
I've run into an assassination mission there ~3 times and we brought him down every time. There were quite a few of us.
 
Where's the cool Warlock gear! I've seen posts of awesome titan and hunter gear, but no warlock's :(

No don't show me that dumb holographic bracelet piece of crap again

jk that thing is pretty cool

Yeah came across this guy my brother and I only one in area, got his shield down but he took off running, got shield back and we couldn't take him out.
 
We can at least all agree that human guardians are the red-headed stepchildren of the Traveler?

Human Guardians are the original children of the Traveler.

Awoken Guardians are Traveler experiments gone wrong. They roam the galaxy looking for a new home.

Exo Guardians are robots created by Human Guardians to protect them from crazy ass Awoken Guardians and their attachment issues.

That is my Destiny lore.

I've completed assassination missions but it's just one specific one that's tough. He gets a speed boost and just takes off with around 2:30 left, completely ignoring attacks until he reaches his goal. He has tons of health too so there's no way to kill him at that point.

No love for Awoken Warlocks?

*raises hand

In my mind Exo=Titan, Awoken=Warlock, and Human=Hunter.

Hey, don't judge me by my pale skin. I just want to be accepted.
 
All this Warlock hate is exactly how it should be.

We're just too mysterious for our own good. And we just don't care.

Quiet now, there are books to be read!
 
Hmm I don't think it's a good decision for PvE either. I don't know why I'm supposed to know beforehand what the mission will require of me or which weapons will be best in that situation. Like, the darkness mission is great with a shotgun and a Strike mission is great with a sniper but I wouldn't have guessed which mission is good with which weapon. It's too restrictive in playstyles because it's not like in Halo where you can just pick up an enemy needler or plasma rifle and change up your strategy on the fly. I would like to have the choice and choose my own rhythm.

You can. You just have to pick up ammo when you switch weapons. It's like abandoning a plasma rifle for one with a fresh battery.

That's how I'll be setting it up when the game releases.

Got myself a legendary emblem from the Iron Banner.

Exactly my throught process when I was choosing my characters! Then I saw the human character models and chose an Awoken for my Hunter character anyway.

Doesn't matter. Steadily rockin' that Awoken Warlock now and forever.
 
I don't know why y'all arguing about which of the two other classes is better when we all know it's really us Titans who make the world go round.
 
Wish sprint was on toggle, it would make more sense to have click to walk as you're mostly sprinting and holding in the stick is a pain in the arse ( or in actuality the hand)
 
Yeah I'm on the boat that they should let you keep some ammo in PvE when swapping only slightly though. It's not that big of a deal to just find some special ammo.

I would love a control scheme that put toggle crouch on L3 and sprint on L1. Move grenade to R1, melee to circle, keep everything else the same.

Same with you except Human=Warlock and Awoken=Hunter. :P
 
What's the difference between the story mission icons on the map mean? Some are a simple star and The Dark Within is a star with feathers flourish but I can't figure out why, I'm pretty sure it's not difficulty because I think I've finished all on normal but I guess I could be mistaken.
 
This game is very good at both being difficult enough yet making you feel like a total badass. Sniper from range, close in with auto-rifle, the last scrub enemy rushes you from the left as you're reloading and then you turn and pop him with a throwing knife. It just feels so good!
 
Luke fix this shit.

The public event where you have to kill the Hive in front of the strike is next to impossible. I've encountered it around 3 times now and the fucker just books it to the last checkpoint every time.
You can knock him around with melee and titan flashbangs essentially stun him. We managed to take him from 50% to 0 between the last two checkpoints no problem.
 
They get to look at Hunters.

You're welcome. lolz
