This was posted earlier and works for me.

EDIT: Depending on your class and upgrade materials needed for it, there might be other farming guides for the planets. Have a look.

Well...
Poison, having to cleanse yourself, strategies that need to be executed
So far up to the second part.
friend just linked me this
I found it funny ( even though it's not nearly Destiny's biggest problem )
its so funny and true it hurts...

Good to know it at least has legendary drops. Gonna hammer a few hours on it tonight.
My only legendary armor from over 10 engrams was for a hunter also. Stored it in my vault for my next run.

No they aren't. Only weapon damage is normalised. Everything else like rate of fire impact and reload time etc are not

I need 11 more Light points for lvl 26.
I can upgrade my chest piece twice more for +4
I can buy legendary boots and upgrade them twice for total of +7
Now all I need is 30 Crucible marks, a dozen Iron Relics and some XP and I can completely bypass asshole RNGesus and get ready for Raid tonight.
*deep breathes*

The fact that you can be given Legendary/Exotic loot for classes other than your own is a fucking joke. Like, how is that not just a massive slap in the face? Get bent, Bungie.

- You play a version of control against AI. The team splits and must stand in zones to build a structure. Once the structure is built, it opens a giant door.
- On your way to the second part they claim that the platforms drop and you must move quickly as a team so no one falls. (Was hard to tell if this was true.)
- You get to a boss area and there is green slime, if you step into it you are marked for death and must cleanse yourself by running to a structure before your time runs out.
- Your group can be instantly wiped.
- If die, you must wait 20 seconds before you can be revived by another player.

This is what I've seen from a live stream and they aren't very far into it yet.

Parasites stream on MLG is a good stream for the raid
I hear that the drops are just too brutal in this game. Meanwhile some dude on stream has like 9 exotics and tons of legendaries.

They added a cool twist with the cleansing, then it immediately devolved into a never-ending wave style horde mode that the rest of the game is. Maybe it wouldn't seem so bad if this oracle wave didn't appear to last forever.
It's still cooler than I expected though. Hopefully the rest of the raid introduces new stuff as you keep going through it.

the system picks and chooses it seems
Yup. Would be alight with trading as I'm sure a bunch of us could sort out some trades, but otherwise it's dumb.

So should i just turned 20 should i join a faction or just grind Vanguard?
So I've been farming for the past 30 miuntes on Oryx and now I noticed that enemies rarely drop anything apart from glimmer, black wax and codex.
I still get the odd uncommon drop but its totally not the same amount I was getting pre-patch.
Yup, same here, looks like they might have toned it down lol

The second phase omg
Have a look at the stats of the gear they sell. Personally, doing Vanguard as it works with farming. I don't think you can trade materials for rep on the other guys?

Didn't take my team long to give up. We had just about built the spire, then it all descended into chaos. Welp. Feel like I'll never complete this without a team of die-hards.
Just hit 20 and I have no idea what to do now...
Pvp, daily mission, weekly mission, vanguard strikes
What's best guys?
I want to start getting legendary items and stuff
EDIT: Oh and now that I'm 20 can I still do bounties and switch to the other sub class and earn the chunk of xp like that still? or not anymore?

That's what it takes for the best gear.
If the loot system is anything like WoW, hopefully items are dropped at every boss with a chance of you getting something but not guaranteed. But console players might not be that patient and want their raid gear now. Either way works fine for me. I just like the challenge of completing it.
just keep playing. in pve, earn marks for the vanguard and pvp crucible or a faction (bounties, strikes, any pvp match). equip anything you get with more light on it and upgrade everything.
Guys, really really appreciate the spoiler tags about any specific encounters or mechanics in the raid. Sincerely. Might sound stupid, but I'm personally more hyped for this than I was for the game launch itself. I'll hopefully be ready by this evening EST or tomorrow night.

I checked one of the streamers, and he's already put 70 hours into the game in one week, which is kind of insane.
I assume because the strikes are designed for bad players?
I did some 24 strikes last night with people who were beyond dreadful, I guess the raids are designed to avoid letting those people in, while the strikes are designed for bad players.
Same. No one used Void weps but me so it was near impossible to get the spire built.

Strikes and pvp to get decent blue gear pretty easily
bounties to get marks and reputation that you can use to get legendary items with
Well I mean, you get shitty players in normal mmo's as well, but normal dungeon bossfights still manage to have specific mechanics and phases that players have to deal with. It's all about how hard the mechanics are tuned. A dot in a dungeon might give not be too deadly in a normal dungeon, whereas in a raid it will kill a player in seconds.
The one in from of temple of crota seems to be working fine.
