Hmm, I must not be. I thought that was the one on earth that looks like a warehouse or a factory.

First Light is the Moon which was in the beta which is much more of a mid-range or long range map. All the Earth maps are good for shotguns really.

 

[Bunta]

Very first area with the Vex and Cabal, just south of where you spawn.

Run around the circle for chests and nodes. Make sure to check the cave, and the two rooms at the back of the Cabal outpost.

They spawn really fast.

Yep, this is where I farm for relic iron.

 

[Zephyrus]

where's Xur?

 

[The Wraith]

I really hate the fact that legendary engrams can give you blues. I had two legendary engrams yesterday that dropped for me while farming and they both ended up being blue armor. Then later on I had some blue engrams that I dropped that ended up giving me a purple helmet... Go figure lol.

That's the same one in the Scablands. At least 4 chests every run.

Daily story? Max level, you get two ascendant mats. Other than that.... I guess you gotta just form public events for shards and hope you get lucky

Does it give you ascendant mats each time you complete it, or only on the first completion of each day?

 

[Ruthless_Barbarian]

If you have an exotic piece of armor equipped, can you still equip an exotic weapon?

Yes, only 1 though.

 

[Poodlestrike]

Just got a package for level up Rahool; one purple and one blue. Decrypted into one green and one blue.

WRRRRRRRRYYYYY

 

[ComputerBlue]

Yes, only 1 though.

Thanks

 

[The Wraith]

He's in the area leading the speaker in the tower.

 

[Smiles and Cries]

if trading were allowed things could get really interesting in this game world

 

[Aspirations26]

I really hate the fact that legendary engrams can give you greens. I had two legendary engrams yesterday that dropped for me while farming and they both ended up being green armor. Then later on I had some blue engrams that I dropped that ended up giving me a purple helmet... Go figure lol.

Fixed that for you . Got greens twice from a legendary, why the fuck would bungie do that lol.

 

[Savantcore]

Are there any good Spirit Bloom farming spots?

 

[FirstClaes]

Party at the loot cave lol

 

[Pop]

That says more about Destiny's MP maps than anything else

I'm not a fan of small maps when everyone has a shotty and super powers. MP is addicting and fun don't get me wrong but feels codish. Everyone seems to be running endlessly with shotty, catering to the badkid crowd.

Hopefully Bungie adds competitive ranks and makes even starts. Probably asking for too much though.

Quick question about the save: I was trying to upload the Destiny save to PSCloud, and it looks like there is not a save on the system. How does the save work then? If I sign in from another PS4, how will the game remember me? PSN account?

All of the save stuff is tied to your psn/xbl account and stored on Bungie's servers, or so it seems.

No saves on the system huh? Then yeah, it's just all tied to their servers connected to your PSN name.

 

[Definity]

This thing is a beast in both PVE and PVP. I'm in love with it. Can't get enough of the special animation when you melee and fire it.

 

[Smiles and Cries]

Party at the loot cave lol

there is always like 5 other people when I go there, I wonder when Bungie will gimp that location

the events there can get nasty

 

[Maybesew]

Patrolling moon for rep, helium and public events. PSN perfybro for add

 

[kubus]

Is it weird that I'm still using the Stranger's Rifle? (weapon you get from The Mysterious Lady(TM) at the end of the story)

All the weapons I'm getting are significantly weaker, even rare ones. Maybe because I'm 'only' lvl 22? It outclasses everything right now.

 

[Ordinator]

It's the moon level with vehicles. The big open one.

You might be thinking of Exodus Blue?

Ah, ok. Thanks. Guess I don't pay enough attention to the names.

nope I want to finish upgrading it then put it away in my storage vault it is just a keepsake for beating the first part of destiny Solo

 

[LollipoPReapeR]

If you maxed your marks, go buy a nice legendary. There, you got something from them.

Not exactly.... Vanguard rank is 0. I am pretty close to my Dead Orbit chest I've been eyeing up for a while. And most of the rep for hat was via bounties + crucible.

 

[Lakitu]

just soloed the lvl 28 daily heroic... thats Dark souls kind of tension.. loveable

Wow, what level are you? How long did it take? Any tips?

 

[Ordinator]

Four more strikes til Bad Juju.

Edit: Wait, I bet there is more to do. Damnit.

 

[LollipoPReapeR]

Does it give you ascendant mats each time you complete it, or only on the first completion of each day?

Only the first time as far as I am aware. Might be worth experimenting with however.

 

[Trickster]

Four more strikes til Bad Juju.

+ some time in crucible

 

[jaaz]

Just got a package for level up Rahool; one purple and one blue. Decrypted into one green and one blue.

WRRRRRRRRYYYYY

The Crypturd is laughing at you.

 

[LollipoPReapeR]

The Crypturd is laughing at you.

Plot twist - Rahool IS the Darkness...

 

[Ordinator]

+ some time in crucible

Hopes crushed

 

[failgubbe]

Yo guys i need one more strange coin, what's the best place to get one

 

[blue_phazon]

So I'm doing the Bad Juju exotic bounty where you have to do 25 strikes. Is there any easy way to do this fast?

 

[Crimson Clown]

So can you buy legendary Vanguard/Crucible gear from the vendors, throw them in the stash, and then have another character equip and use them who hasn't reached the needed rank to buy the gear themselves?

 

[Zephyl]

This thing is a beast in both PVE and PVP. I'm in love with it. Can't get enough of the special animation when you melee and fire it.

Is this item a crucible drop? Or did you get it from a strike? Also anyone want to run the weekly heroic strike at level 26? I'm 24 myself, I'll be on in 20 minutes on my PS4, my PSN is Zephyl

 

[Dubz]

I need 1 strange coin to be able to buy stuff from Xur and I did the weekly. Suggestions?

 

[th4tguy]

Isn't the gear class specific?

 

[Beefy]

Fuck this game. If I don't get better RNG luck by October 8th, I'm going to trade this shit to Gamestop. You're on notice, Bungie. Fuck you and fuck your RNG. Other people are swimming in gear, but you don't give me shit.

I have no legends or exotics as well.

 

[TatteredHat]

Do the weekly on a different difficulty, if you can handle it.

 

[d9b]

WRRRRRRRRYYYYY

Replace Ra with Ass and take away one o from hoole.

 

[E92 M3]

So last night all of my luck was wasted on an exotic rocket launcher :{.

Also, still no exotic bounties. I think my game is glitched.

 

[Lakitu]

I only need 3 more mote of lights to get the exotic engram, is it worth it?

 

[Bunta]

Welcome to the club.

 

[jtar86]

Just wait till you get the gun. It only gets worse literally every blue lvl 20 gun I have is better than that pos.

 

[Daemul]

You can't buy Legendary gear for other classes, only find them.

 

[Tekku]

Oh my.

Praise RNGesus.

An exotic weapon bounty
A legendary scout rifle
A legendary helmet

All in the space of a couple of hours of normal play.

Level 26!!!!!!!

I'll be asking in this thread later for gaffers who want to try the weekly strike at 26 and the nightfall :-D

What does RNG stand for? I've wondered this since it was first mentioned in the Destiny threads.

 

[Aspirations26]

Lucky bastard, I been dying to get a legendary or exotic hand cannon.

Google would have told you sooner.

Random Number Generator.

 

[Bunta]

Welcome to the club.

Nevermind, I just left that club. Sorry.

Anyone care to link the exotic bounty list? Or offer any input?
