They should really just put them in the game, to drill into out when you first stumble upon them, or to save for later reading/viewing in the tower or while waiting for other players.

It wouldn't diminish the app or the website one bit, which both already have their uses.

Agreed. I'm sure it will happen eventually. Also, whoever headed the creative writing for the grimoire cards should be promoted as creative director for the next single player campaign. I'm being a little facetious, but I see some crazy talent wasting away on cards that a large population would never bother to read.

Absolutely 1000% percent this.

The environments are what bring me back, along with the ebb and flow combat can have, especially in co-op. Those things they fucking nailed, even being cross platform and cross generation.

Right behind you folks on that. They probably don't pay those artists and designers behind that enough for what they bring to this game.

^Would be up for a Grimoire library in the tower if they don't want to retool the player's menu.
 
So, DestinyGAF I need somethings cleared up for me....

1. Vanguard Marks are earned in PVE, Crucible Marks in PVP.
Reputation is earned for completing bounties, which by default go to Vanguard - but you can redirect that reputation to the faction of your choice by wearing their cloak.

Is that correct?

2. Is anyone getting random purple rewards from the postmaster at various times of the day? Sometimes I get motes of light, sometimes strange coins, sometimes a pair of decoherent. What is the reason for receiving these?

3. Do strike playlists have their own loot tables? (higher loot for higher lvl req's). Or is the loot table determined by the level of the people in the strike? (lower levels in a higher strike drag down the loot quality?). Because I'm level 23 and I've been playing with my 2 friends that are 21 and 20 in a 22 playlist and I have not seen upgrades in a loooooooooooooooooooong time.

4. Does anyone think Vanguard defense gear should be obtained before faction defense gear? I don't really see much of a difference.

Please tell me I'm not alone...

But I've been disconnecting like crazy today. I can't even finish the level 5 skywatch mission because of the constant disconnects.

Anybody else experiencing this or just me? :(
 
For the trophy, how are you supposed to get 777 grimoire points? I thought you only could get these points and 10s and 20s?

Does the Iron Banner seriously not start until October? I've been saving up so I can have the burning warlock bond and I have to wait that long?



Vendor comes supposedly on weekends to the Tower, sells exotic armor and weapons. Unfortunately they're bought with strange coins, which are one of the possible drops of public events. And like the shit I want requires 7.

Do you have a list of stuff you can buy with Strange Coins? I got one from a chest I think...

I was wondering the same thing. 5s are possible, too but is this trophy actually missable?

Just get past 777.

Ah, thanks for the clear up. I figured as much but the wording in the trophy list wasn't clear.
 
Frenden said:
I'm playing control and attempting to buy legendary gear via factions. I just wish more bounties were available as I blow through the multiplayer ones pretty quickly.

But, yes, the cool gear is all post 20 and the opportunities to earn it are too few right now, I think.

Crucible seems like the best option but it just makes me dislike the game since I'm terrible at it. You get 2 marks for completing a match but chest armor for example will cost you 65. This is absolute clown shoes.

I can't be the only one who finds it stupid that leveling past 20 requires RNG to be kind to you.

What is this weekly people keep talking about and where can I access it?

I see nothing about a weekly in-game.

Have to be level 16(or 18 not sure) to unlock the daily story quest and weekly strike.

Basically its one of the story missions and strikes beefed up for better leveled gear.

Agreed.
 
I hit 20 earlier this evening and have been playing crucible since then. I thought I read somewhere that after 20 you still get xp, but you get motes of light in return. I have not gotten one yet and can't tell where to track the progress towards get a mote of light.
 
I got the Triple Play trophy, a hunter, warlock and titan just so happens to be trying to capture a control point on Exodus Blue control point A. Then I've got my ground pound super and ding! Felt so great.

I'd say I'm pretty good, but not great, at Crucible matches (usually end up top half of the board, sometimes number one).

I leveled my first character to 20 by going straight to PVP after Bounties and the Crucible unlocked and doing nothing else. So, to say that I like the PVP is an understatement.

The 60+ cost mark feels a smidge high, but not terrible compared to the unlock rate in other multiplayer shooters. I don't mind it.

I just wish there was a bit more variety or, at the least, more bounties for PVP per day.

Nope and you better have some high level peeps with you because that strike is so fucking hard. Me and a friend tried it just the two of us, got to Sepik Prime and just couldn't do it.

But its a miracle we got past that first section at all.
Click to expand...

Dammit that's really fucking dumb :/ oh well.

So how much light equals a level?
 
Finished the weekly strike with TylerDurden and a friend of his. Hot Damn that was fun. Bringing up the ghost shows that Arc weapons are the flavor of the strike. All Arks are multipled (you and enemy), that's why the fallen snipers are so deadly, they use Ark guns. However, you can be very deadly as well.

I actually beat it by myself because my friends weren't high enough to join me. Took me about an hour. Died once at Sepik. The key was being extremely patient and having good offensive gear.
 
Surely the exotic weapons sold by the weekend vendor cost more than 7 strange coins right? I already have 8. It would seem weird if tons of people had exotic weapons in the first week.

Since hitting 20 I feel lost.

Yea that's sorta what happened to me. I got to 20 before beating the rest of the missions so I kinda blazed through the end.

I need to just so the daily/weekly stuff and then the vanguard playlist until I max out my Vanguard marks.

I think I have played one Moon mission..and 20.
The story doesn't scale right, will be breezy?
 
I feel extremely unlucky. I have seen a lot of people only around level 20-21 that seem to be getting a lot of legendaries and just trashing blues. I am level 25 and have only seen one legendary, which is my chest plate. Is there a proper way to get these or something? my friends and I are just going into the lvl 8 strike on earth and farming chests.

1. Correct.
2. Pretty sure that happens when you level up your cryptarch and such.
4. Just depends, I've noticed certain factions have stregth and intellect and some intelect and discipline so just depends what you want.
 
Been doing PVP today, since its easier to do than strikes that take way too long. Wow, I thought I hated the moon man in alpha/beta. That map is just awful. IT is terrible in all modes playable, specially in Clash. Still love venus, its a fair map for everyone.

What counts as an ark weapon? Is there a stat, or gun type I should be looking at?
 
The New Monarchy armor seems to have the best Blade Dancer stats. Which is weird. They're so foppish.

Little Lord Fauntleroy and his spectral assassin blades.

Hit that options button and move the cursor over the big "level 20". Now you'll get a tooltip with the progression-bar for motes of light.
