FYI, if you've got a decent special or heavy weapon with solar damage you'll want to bring it.

I've already done it, there is a way to avoid those wizards at the end. Try to stay towards the left edge of the final boss fight area and DO NOT kill all the hive knights that spawn from the opposite side. Kill the acolytes but leave 1 or 2 knights, they will mostly not even attack you, just shoot from far. That way you can actually prevent the wizards from spawning when the boss goes down to 20% health. My team finished the weekly in under 30 mins.

Yeah so I think I'm done playing Destiny for now. Will probably only come back to play it during the story events stuff. Was hoping getting a cool exotic weapon would kinda help me enjoy the game more, but the realization that I misunderstood the perk that made me feel that Bad Juju would be good, have just been incredibly demoralizing.
And I just can't be bothered doing poorly designed and repetitive as hell pve stuff like strikes, bounties and public events only to get a few more legendary weapons and upgrade materials when I don't really want to commit time to do the raid anyway.
And the PvP in this game just offers me a thousand times more frustration than it does enjoyment with it's bad maps, terrible weapon balance and dumb vehicles...

Nope. I think you're stuck with it. I contemplated and asked many questions before I chose one.
You can discard it but it will NOT give you the option to choose another. You will have to get lucky again and get offered a new one.
Agreed. Actually playing the game works out much better than just farming but hey oh well. I also enjoy the multiplayer so I guess I'm weird.

Someone send me a PS4 daily or weekly strike invite please.

I absolutely hated the multiplayer the first few times I tried it. Then I set my look speed to 6 and changed my playstyle a bit and now I am doing amazingly well and having fun with it.
Isn't it ited to the Bounties? My whole crew got it basically around the same time, around 50 Bounties completed?

Not picking up engrams.
I hear that you can still collect them or they get delivered to you?

Does the mark limit refresh 1 week after we first earned the marks or at the start of an actual calender week?
Farming is absolutely brilliant for 4 things
Motes
Coins
Cryptarch levels
Glimmer (if you use glimmer boosts)
Also the Crota door farm is the single best place in the game to do the 'kill 2 enemies 20 times" FR bounty.
I finished a strike yesterday. Had an empty inventory. Postmaster was holding a legendary engram.
Not sue if it saves lower level engrams.
Tuesday.
Haha, I just finished this evening and eh, I think it's ugly as fuck. But aside from that the clip is really small for a rifle of any type. You get 5 shots before reloading. I'll use it for patrols but I won't be using that gun in a strike or anything. I can say though that playing Crucible this afternoon was really fun! I even won a couple of rumble matches and got a trophy. I didn't get any great loot though so that was disappointing.
I gave up trying to RNG 7 more fusion rifles for the other exotic bounty so I bought them. Now I have to get 200 kills in the nightfall strike using only as fusion rifle. I'm a level 25. I've got 66 so far by just hiding in the first doorway and killing everything but the witch and knight then repeating. These bounties kind of suck but what else was I doing with my life?

Ahhhh I need to get 2000 glimmer in an hour to finish off this exotic bounty! Where!?
Easy.
The Moon door farm. Use a Hive glimmer boost so you get glimmer from every kill.
You'll have it in 15 minutes tops.
If you're on ps4 I can take you there now.

Use one of the +glimmer consumables and run a few Strikes.
The 'hive have awoken' door in the Sword of Crota mission with a black wax idol if you have one.

What's wrong with it? I've been going for it myself.
I have no idea. It will probably be fine and I will rock socks off with it. But people are just bitching and putting it down,it's kinda ruining my "get another 5000 pvp points" mood.
People say pvp is bad.
People say the game is boring.
People give the game 6/10 and less.
Some people you should ignore.

Ps: I have the Fair and Square and it's not bad. It does feel a little underpowered but I can still do well with it. I do think Pulse rifles need a little buff.

Don't get me wrong it really might end up being shit in the end. But if that is the case I hold out hope that Bungie is interested in making sure the game ends up being more than an Auto Rifle / Shotgun game. There are definite pvp balance issues in that regard.

Very low dmg output, and it only has 5 shots per magazine.
Good luck doing dmg to "elites" and bosses in pve. And good luck killing anyone in pvp when you are gonna have to reload constantly unless you actually get a kill in during those 5 low dmg shots.
Oh, it is also very annoying visually. The gun itself takes up a big part of the right side screen, making it hard to see stuff there. And then it also has some green fire that does a great job at obscuring vision even further.
I know, I know, I really should but I'm at work here already preparing for getting it today and looking forward to it, so it being made out to be so shit puts me off.
Honestly, I'll play wth it just to spite people now.

I want to believe but reach never got any kind of balance fixes for its weaker weapons, I worry about destiny doing the same.
Scout Rifles, hand cannons, FRs, snipers... All as good as AR and shotgun if you can aim.
AR and shotguns are just the easiest to shoot.
Pulse rifles need a little love though.
If you're letting random people on a forum affect your mood about earning a sweet exotic weapon, you need to take a break from the forum, destiny, or both

a question about raids and other strike missions.
These will always be available to play right? it´s not like they are only available for a certain time period?

Right now there are no time exclusive strikes or raids in the game.
We do not know if anything like that will ever come up. I doubt it though. If it happens it will be a special version of an already existing strike/raid.

Thanks for the help everyone. Managed to finish one part of the exotic bounty only to find out there's another. Need to kill 200 enemies in the weekly Nightfall strike with a fusion rifle :|
Once you level it up it reloads instantly. Which means you dont have to reload it. it has all the shots. with the stability up grade it hardly moves and can fire on target from the hip for a very long time.

Thanks.
might as well ask another one.
Why is there no Map available when you enter venus, mars etc?
Find it really hard to navigate to various parts of the map without one.
aslo, are cruciable marks any use outside of PVP?

Was playing crucible yesterday and this guy at the other team went insane with the fusion rifle, at which point I just said fuck it and equipped mine. Had never used it in crucible before, and OH MY GOD. I will never stop.

Just did the weekly heroic with Hektro, now I just need 3 more strange coins for my first exotic (or legendary for that matter). Where can I get more?
remember it only instantly refills after a kill though. So it is a great gun against adds/smaller enemies but against bosses or in PvP it might not be the most amazing.

Would love a new NPC in the tower that could charge your weapons with Arc/Solar/Void damage.
There's no map because Bungie didn't put one in for some unknown reason. There should be one.
Crucible marks can be spent at the Crucible venders or the three independent faction vendors. The items you buy can be used for pve as well.
It's a good idea to max both you crucible marks and vanguard marks per week if you can. Means you could afford two legendary pieces a week instead of one. You can mix and match from any of the factions.

I need to find 10 (8 actually as I had 2 already) rare or above Fusion Rifles and break them down for my Exotic bounty. Wondering where the best place to go is.
And now that I've joined the FWC do I earn exp with them at the expense of Vanguard exp or do I still get both?

All I've done since getting off work is drink beer and punch out aliens on the moon. All in the pursuit of the prestigious level 26.
Anyone fill their alternate ghost slots? It's wishful thinking of mine that Bungie would release alternate ghosts you could buy featuring different voices and personalities. No legendary gear in sight, and so I press on as I've got the Black Garden mission awaiting me with bonus Paul McCartney loot drop.

Do the weekly on a harder difficulty.
I believe the vendor is selling them right now. You'd better have the money though, they aren't cheap.

I've just finished that. The gunsmith is selling rare fusion rifles for 2000 glimmer each atm

I thought the instant reload was only if you get a kill with the current magazine?
If you're talking about the Strike playlist, I believe there are different daily or weekly rotations similar to the different daily heroic missions and strikes.
