First time I got a chest like this
wow
Doesn't explain. Colored elemental heavy or special guns hurt that shield.
The game punishes you if you switch your gun slot to the correct color for shields by halving your ammo I think
Forces you to set your party up each with a gun of each flavor in the ready slot

We beat the final boss and didn't get the end screen, no lag though. Someone else was complaining about it about an hour ago. There are some issues for sure.
I don't think it does, but they're such bullet sponges at higher levels that it really makes it seem like you're doing no damage, especially if it's a shielded enemy. As someone else mentioned, elemental weapons are good, but you notice a big difference when you've got a legendary.

Hawkian, do you want to play with me and Admiral Puppy later?
Oh, wait, you're in Atlanta, aren't you?
I got a chest like that earlier too! I got two rare engrams, some helium filaments, and something else I think.

I got one earlier today when doing a relic run for gear upgrades. Gave me enough to upgrade and I quit the run right there.

Anyone want to do the weekly heroic strike at level 26? I'm level 25, but can hold my own. But this is too hard doing solo.

Almost to level 20 with my second character, a defender Titan. It's been really fun to develop another character, but the story is even worse the second time through since I know it goes nowhere. And the dialogue... Yeah, I really hope the series has better writers in the future.
Don't think I've ever even gotten a blue item out of a chest.

Got one like this on Earth today. Legendary and Rare engram, Spinmetal, and Heavy Ammo.
Of course, Rahool laughed in my face but it was still nice.
I had one like that on Mars yesterday: 1x Purp, 1x Blue, 2x Special Ammo packs, 12x Relic Iron.

It's so sad that I know which cave that is.

Because of your post I looked at the picture a second time and it's the same cave that I got my amazing chest in. :lol
The proper element does double damage to shields. The only situation where you deal less damage to shields is on Epic difficulty (not Heroic, Epic), where if you use the wrong element, you deal half damage and one enemy of each race has an additional shield type.
But otherwise shields are static per race, so once you know what a given mission contains, you can always bring the right weapon for the job.
... then the Burn skulls add to that mix, by amplifying one damage type.
It's a really elegant system, not sure why you don't like it.

If you pick a fraction, then both PVP and PVE will earn you rep towards that fraction, you won't earn any for the crucible quartermaster, or the vanguard one.
So it's ultimately up to you.

Maybe it can help us put down Atheon tomorrow. Seriously nice find though, where was that? Looks kind of like the moon but can't see much outside the cave.

That's right. You should gain rep for whichever faction has the gear you want.
No I got home!
I'd love to, for the movement I'm mudercating with nicoga and suttondagger, but if you guys are still free up later on!
OK cool. People just pick based on what each one offers I assume. I'll just finish qtrmaster since he's already started.

I don't appreciate that! Pay attention to me!
It's the moon. Just hit 27 as well. Hopefully that will help out tomorrow.

I need me some more of that raid.
Anyone else excited for the Queen stuff? If we keep getting periodic stuff like this, I can see myself playing this for a VERY long time. Nothing has sucked me in this much since Halo 3.

After god knows how many hours I finally got my first legendary engram....and it was a legendary.
Also got my first PvP award and it leveled me up to 24. Today has been a good day.

Bounties all done, same with weekly and daily. Any suggestions for good ways to farm xp to level up equipment?
Also I haven't said my 2 cents yet on destiny so I'd like to chime in.
I find destiny had its faults but it always was going to have faults.
What it isn't is a complete technical mess.
I'm enjoying it as much as any other game I've loved over time and for launch its pretty friggen awesome.
Just wish bungie would be quicker hotfixing things like treasure cave. Disheartening to see people chase loot instead of actually playing the game.

Party full. thanks everyone
I'd be in if you guys are still looking. PSN: wowmuchusername
Like the armor and color combo.
I can't get PNGs of my Guardian, because Bnet loads nothing for me.
Are you really gonna start the raid the day before it gets reset?

Took me about 2 hours and I'm horrible at pvp. Did a mix of control and rumble.

Yesterday, I did something I NEVER do, and thats join up with random people to attempt the weekly strike. I really wanted to get some strange coins.
So we met up and got through it eventually. Today, I decided to continue the exotic bounty for Invective. I was at the part where you need a +25 spread in the crucible.
I HATE.....HATE.....the pvp in this game. OMG do I hate it. So I didn't really know how I was gonna move forward with the bounty. But I saw some videos on youtube going through the best weapons for pvp and I got myself a new assault rifle and decided, screw it, let's do this, cus you know, YOLO!
I ended up having the best match so far against some clueless bums and nearly finished it right there! About 2 games later, it was done. Thank God assists count towards the spread.
So I felt pretty awesome. Next part, complete a weekly strike! Oh joy, the thing I literally just did the other day.
So I hop on and ask if anyone wants to join up, and again, I never do that. I got a little impatient and decided to try it by myself. I took it slow and only ended up dying maybe 2 or 3 times total.
I spent the longest taking out the extra enemies around Phogoth. I swear, some parts while running around the damn room, I was only able to maybe take out 1 enemy per loop once those damn wizards appeared. Shit took FOREVER.
Another interesting note, I have 25,000 glimmer, and have NOTHING to spend it on. So one day I just decided to blow some of it on ammo from the gunsmith. Man, that came in handy! Used it for the first time, and it saved my ass.
So finally, I kill all the extras, and I can just focus on Phogoth, and I finally kill him...by myself. WHAT'S UP, PHOGOTH!
So the final part is buy a shit ton of special ammo to charge your new gun, or something like taht. So now I can actually spend glimmer on something!
After that, got the gun. Yes, it was a random bounty, and I got lucky there, but I earned the SHIT out of that gun!
The end.

Awesome, I should be able to get to 28 if I can get my hands on another ascendant shard. I got a new legendary auto rifle just before our run tonight too, it seems pretty powerful and I should be able to squeeze in an upgrade or two with any luck. We have a pretty good system worked out now anyway, it's only a matter of time before he goes down.
