My third legendary autorifle.....

 

[Admiral Woofington]

so Activate Fan and a Purple Ball what else to find in the tower?

used to be a soccer ball, but the past couple of times I've searched for it for the life of me I can't find it.

 

[Two Words]

Has anybody gotten piercing rounds on Thorn yet? Does it make a big impact?

 

[Juraash]

So tonight while doing bounties a legendary weapon engram dropped. It decrypted to FWC's handcannon The Chance. This thing has bonuses that grant fast reload on precision kills and extra DMG on kills. Now I have never tried a handcannon before but these bonuses seemed pretty sick and I figured what better time to try one out.

Holyyyyy shit, the thing is so punchy and so satisfying to use. I miss the range of my scout rifle but this gun may have made me a convert. I unlocked the reload speed upgrade while doing bounties and this thing just sings. What a fantastic class of weapon I never even bothered to try.

tsk tsk you fail me admiral puppy

 

[DNAbro]

It's still there. By the west side near one of the pillars i believe.

 

[Icyflamez96]

It was there for me last time I was in the tower. Actually that was the first time I've ever seen the soccer ball myself.

Damn that sounds sick. I love handcannons and my main one had a similar effect. I wish The Last Word had a similar reload speed.

 

[malfcn]

Yes, that's why it's called a Daily. Just a bonus mission where you can earn some rewards. If you did while doing it, I think you can attempt it again. But once you finish it and earn the reward, you can't get a reward a second time.

Ah..play it as hard as possible then.
Still bummed that it said ship upgrade, and I got nothing.
RNGesus strikes again.

Relic Iron is easy to gather...

Can't do that and not share.

 

[UpDownLeftRight]

used to be a soccer ball, but the past couple of times I've searched for it for the life of me I can't find it.

If you're looking at the guy with the bounties i'ts just to your left, near the banister on the lower level that takes you up to the stairs with the fan button. If it's not there then some spoil sport has kicked it off the edge again.

 

[Mindlog]

My Warlock is dancing so god damn hard.
Mini there being all different.

I have quite a few shards now, but the news that Raid gear may be necessary to hit 30 is a huge bummer. Progress is going to be slowed tremendously.

 

[Admiral Woofington]

tsk tsk you fail me admiral puppy

Lol what's new

It's still there. By the west side near one of the pillars i believe.

It was there for me last time I was in the tower. Actually that was the first time I've ever seen the soccer ball myself.

That's where it usually is. Maybe somebody else grabs it everytime I go there. I can't hispanic out yo.

James Woofdriguez no more

 

[The Librarian]

Lol what's new

YOU NOT DISAPPOINTING ME FOR ONCE?

 

[ZangBa]

Just need 1 more for the raid, PS4, phase before final boss and the boss itself. 26+ and have mic. PSN same as GAF name.

 

[CLBridges]

Felt good to complete Vault. Lag is the real boss in that instance, but we prevailed. I really hope Bungie does something regarding loot because the Raid is very good and challenging, everyone should be able to partake.

Anyway, just glad to get it done before reset and get ready to do it again later on this week. Maybe I'll actually get a weapon or armor drop but I can't be mad at ascendant energy/shards and the shader. Back to goofing around I guess

 

[Twilight Gap]

So... Red Death sucks...

I have not seen a good exotic yet.

 

[Steel]

I know Thorn sucks, but what's wrong with Bad Juju? I was thinking of going for it eventually.

5 shots in a clip, terrible recoil, low damage per shot, you can fucking pelt someone with every bullet of a clip of it in pvp, but if it's all body shots they'll still be standing. It's worthless.

 

[BoxManLocke]

I understand Thorn sucks at first, but did anyone actually use it fully upgraded ?

I waited so long to get a primary exotic, I don't want to have to dismantle it... unless it gives me lots of shards.

 

[TTG]

i finally got an exotic bounty

rngesus loves me yal ;_;

how?

 

[Admiral Woofington]

YOU NOT DISAPPOINTING ME FOR ONCE?

I'm just a man. A man with problems. Who disappoints. But is patriotic as shit and just 'Muricas as he saves people. Are you disappointed by the red, white, and blue?

You commie

 

[Stratosphere]

I finally got my first set of exotic bounties to choose from. Which one should I go for?
- Shattered Memory Fragment
- A Voice in the Wilderness
- Toland's Legacy

Edit: After doing some research, it seems the best may be Toland's for the Bad Juju primary?
Edit 2: Upon further review, I need 10k points in crucible to get it. FUCK ME.

Anybody? Pocket Infinity, Super Good Advice, or Bad Juju?

 

[Byron Bluth]

Sweet victory.

Woooooooo! So pumped. That Raid is the gaming moment of the year so far for me.

 

[Steel]

Anybody? Pocket Infinity, Super Good Advice, or Bad Juju?

Anything but Bad JuJu. From what I heard of super good advice it actually gets to be a really good unique gun after the upgrades. Dunno about Pocket.

 

[The Librarian]

You commie

Red's my favorite color!

 

[Kaji]

Relic Iron is easy to gather...

Is that a exotic quest for a ghost shell?

 

[figadapaura]

My third legendary autorifle.....

can I have one?

 

[Mike_Hawk689]

Start it will send invite and join. No mic though

Can't believe we did it hahahaha god damn

 

[malfcn]

Is that a exotic quest for a ghost shell?

Possible. Googling found this: Shells.

 

[Admiral Woofington]

Red's my favorite color!

No wonder you love Old Russia.

 

[hydruxo]

Anybody? Pocket Infinity, Super Good Advice, or Bad Juju?

I got the same 3 bounties, went with Pocket Infinity. Seems like it's the best option since everybody says Juju is the worst exotic. Super Good Advice might be good too but the recoil is really bad apparently.

 

[Gaz_RB]

Welp

No raid win for us

 

[GifGafIsTheBestGaf]

My heart bleeds Everytime I play a high level mission, because I realize Everytime that my built sucks balls for raids and shit. Welp titan defender here I come...

 

[everyday math]

Welp

No raid win for us

;___;

 

[Two Words]

This game needs to take a page from Warframe and have randomly generated areas. It would be cool if the Reef was designed to go to randomly generated wrecked ships to look for lost loot while fighting off enemies.

 

[GifGafIsTheBestGaf]

Can't believe we did it hahahaha god damn

Yeah man good stuff. It was my first at that level. Lol

 

[SlenderBeans]

First world problems. My legendary raid chest piece looks so cool, but I would have to take off my Exotic chest piece.

 

[Mike_Hawk689]

Yeah man good stuff. It was my first at that level. Lol

Thought it was gonna be a breeze but wow one hit kill from a knight's swing haha

 

[BigJonsson]

Haha yes

Blue engram turned into a legendary helmet

 

[Gaz_RB]

;___;

Next week.

 

[Fedemgsuy]

So, i went ahead and bought my first legendary, dustwalker chest, seconds later, i get my first purple from leveling the cryptasshole, what do i get from it?, yes, dustwalker chest.
Fuck you RNGESUS

 

[therealminime]

Woooooooo! So pumped. That Raid is the gaming moment of the year so far for me.

Totally agree, the only frustration was the lag, but aside from that, it was an amazing experience. I am hoping the DLC raid is as good as this one.

 

[Twilight Gap]

so many inconsistencies in this game. swapping out my exotic for a rare that can actually kill shit before reloading.

 

[BigJonsson]

Hmmm, 500 points with void damage......this is going to take forever

 

[El_Fenomeno]

There is a new strike that will show up on the moon for you, its next to Summoning Pit and is level 26. You have to run that, don't unchain Phogoth and just keep killing adds till Xyur shows up - about 3 or 4 add waves. Kill Xyur and you are done, can kill off Phogoth then or just head back to orbit.

Thanks for the information. Now to gather up some friends who will bare with me lol.

 

[TheCthultist]

I keep hearing people say there is another way to get Thorn besides the bounty. Is there any truth behind this or is it just another rumor that keeps going around?

 

[Gamer @ Heart]

Totally agree, the only frustration was the lag, but aside from that, it was an amazing experience. I am hoping the DLC raid is as good as this one.

I hope we can morph into a solid group. Raiding in FF14 is some of the most satisfying content I have ever played and I would love to get that feeling in this game.

Fake edit: I am assuming you were in the group with me a little while ago.

 

[GifGafIsTheBestGaf]

Thought it was gonna be a breeze but wow one hit kill from a knight's swing haha

Me too. BTW, Got Truth from the purple drop.

 

[ethomaz]

so many inconsistencies in this game. swapping out my exotic for a rare that can actually kill shit before reloading.

My Exotic Auto Rifle is really hard to use until you upgrade it to Perfect Balance... after that it is the best Auto Rifle in the game.

The upgrades makes the Exotic better than others.

 

[Der Flatulator]

So I was a annoyed with reading the Destiny Grimoire cards on Bungie.net as the web scripting is so damn heavy. I decided to build a little one-page thingo for reading all the juicy content within the cards with simple navigation that should work on all modern devices.

(warning, contains spoilers, as all cards are shown)

Here's the result: http://derflatulator.com/destiny/grimoire/

[R0ckman]

I gotta admit, Bungie was successful in capturing the essence of a true failpug when it comes to the raid and players not knowing what to do or getting way too emotional.

Spoiler

I don't get why folks try to avoid the enemies in the portals in the final boss fight of the raid. Keeping them alive makes killing the oracles harder.

Are you serious? You can take out the enemies in less then 10 seconds sometimes with the relic.

Spoiler

I just went batshit when fighting them because the hobgoblins and minotaurs are my most hated enemies in the game.
