so earlier i discovered playing Destiny with music. Made me realize how low-key, and frankly forgettable the OST in this game is. It's good, as it always is with Marty, but rarely does it stand out and sell the environment of the game like it used to with Halo.

So when do tha vanguard marks reset? I'm assuming sometime Sunday night?

tuesday at 2am pacific is when almost everything in the game resets, including raid checkpoints
 
Holy shit yes, I just beat the weekly strike solo. With the right tactic it's actually relatively easy, but fuck yes, I'm pumped!

Edit: And I got a legendary Engram...it's a lvl 16 rare. I don't even care.
 
Any opinions regarding the Sunbreaker gauntlets that Xur is selling for Warlock? I'm primarily a sunsinger, but I typically use Fusion Grenades. Does the Helium Cycle upgrade (Increases the duration of your Solar Grenade) make it worthwhile?
 
OK I just got to level18. What should I be doing to maximize my time spent towards getting to the end game?

Get to level 20

then go ahead and find a farming spot for blue engrams as maxed out blue level 19/20 gear will get you to 24.

then you need some legendaries to get to 26.

then the raid.
 
Just got out of a crucible game when I went for postmortem with the flux grenade the other player would deliberately stop shooting me. ;-;
 
anyone up for a strike or anything. Nick_or_Dawood (PS4) Level 25 Warlock. Hit me up. If not I guess I will go exploit the cave of wonders. just got another legendary engram there. like stealing from a baby

Personally I'm too much of a fan of sticky grenades. so I can't go back to regular ones.

If you're primarily a sunsinger the best thing to get is Heart of the Praxic Fire. Some fortunate Warlocks and some unfortunate other people got it today with the exotic engram for 23 motes of light.

I didn't. And I was sad.

There's like 50 or so. Quite a bit too me

Is that confirmed? If so, she should really get new ones. I don't wanna have to get 30+ from crucible.

I'm the same way; I just love the sticky grenades that I couldn't see myself switching just for the buff unless it was better than I am imagining it to be.

Thanks!
 
I'm trying to get ascendant energy and shards. I know you can get it from public events and the daily story, but is it only when you complete your first public event of the day? or can I try and do several public events in a day to get them? Appreciate any and all responses!
 
How do you guys get exotic bounties?

Also... is it worth it to level up sunsinger?

I maxed out voidwalker, but it seems sunsinger is neccessary for the raid as well as the fact most of the exotic gear for warlocks seem to enchance solar and sunsinger
 
It's best to save all your motes of light to gamble on Xur right? Next week I will be able to take a spin, hopefully I get either The Mask of the Third Man or Hard Light. I should be all decked out in legendary gear by then as well
 
Today's progress:

1 x Legendary Sniper Rifle
1 x Exotic Heavy Machine Gun
1 x Exotic Helmet
Reached level 27

SUCCESS.

Just need a Legendary Auto Rifle (at least, I'd be willing to use an Exotic one instead of the HMG) and Legendary legs to finish off my set and then continue to work on the upgrades to max myself out.

I need at least 40 Ascendant Shards though. looooooooooool fucking hell.
 
Farming strange coins... FUCK
I wouldn't mind it if I could spend then whenever. But I want the gloves that Xur is selling this weekend so I'm spending my time in Destiny shooting trash mobs in a tunnel for hours.
People are always farming in the cosmodrome when I'm there. Had the thing happen where the enemies infight, and they kept spawning in one room. Seemed like a bug. So many orbs of lights. So much XP.
 
Never? Really?... wow. Well good news for people who want their character to look like a clown or a bottle of Mylanta.

Just do what I did. I went with Polar Oak. I've gotten other shaders from crucible (like 2 or 3) but I still use Polar Oak. Nothing beats white armor/clothing with green stuff, unless you have another shader that's white with something else.
 
ohhh, nice, If I up the difficulty on the weekly heroic strike to level 26 or 28 I can get rewards even after completing it on the normal difficulty. I'm still level 24 though :(

Nice!.

I joined the New Monarchy because of the warlock armor and the legendary AR they have there. You have to be rank 2 for the armor but rank 3 for the AR. I am so close to rank 2 now I can't wait.

How'd you do the room with all the waves before the boss? Where you wait for the door to unlock
 
HOLY SHIT!

I got legendary gloves from the cryptarch.... with a blue engram! And they are for my class

Just got my first exotic from a bounty: Bad Juju.

Who thought it was a good idea to make a gun that takes up >1/4 the screen and constantly flashes green? It's like every time it flashes the gun is saying "Don't look at the enemy, look at me"
 
Nothing like losing a whole goddamn hour because of a connection error during a strike.

I don't care what Bungie does, but there are only so many times I can tolerate this until I quit for good.

If you haven't already done it, might be a good idea to check your network, open some ports, etc.
 
4 legit found in the wild legendary engrams and none of them turned up shit.

Why broadcast that someone found one when it's more likely to be a level 16 blue?
 
Anybody up for the weekly strike mission? Had a go at it with a couple other GAFfers, but I think our collective level was just too low.

PSN: wowmuchusername

Level 27 Titan Striker
 
Vanguard marks are such a grind....


Also, is it a good idea to get vanguard and crucible factions to lvl 3 before I switch to a faction? I'm planning to go to dead orbit later
