Are there exotic Fusion rifles? If so, what looks to be the "best" or superior one? Thank you, and I apologize if this has already been asked

Behold pocket infinity.... a full auto fusion rifle

So what class do you guys feel is the most OP in Crucible? Most of my friends (who are 95% Hunters) say titan is OP.

And their reasoning?

I think Hunter has the biggest balancing issues. Especially the Arc Blade super ability. It has too many benefits and it goes on forever with incredibly high armor. Combined with double/triple jump, high agility and silent footsteps it's almost impossible to deal with even with team mates close by.
 
neat.
Turned in a legendary leg engram and got Motes of Light, however it leveled up my ranking and from the engrams you get, I ended up getting actual legendary legs that I could use from it.
 
I tried the cave farming for about 20 minutes. It's really boring and I got practically nothing. So I decided to do some beacon missions to up my vanguard rep. I found a chest with a legendary and two rare engrams. The legendary turned into 3 ascendant shards :)

I feel like I've earned all the rewards I have in Destiny, personally. you don't have to agree that I have, I guess, but... it's pretty straightforward from my perspective

that's because Titans are OP. XD

really all the classes are OP. I don't know how else to put it. most matches are very competitive and enjoyable for me.

Need to get 2 more rare fusion rifles to dismantle. I'm at a point where I'm going to buy legendaries and dismantle them.

It didn't even occur to me I could do that. my rng luck is such that I may never see another blue fusion rifle, so thank you

they're all OP in some way except the gunslinger.



-OHK melee
-flashbang nade
-near unavoidable super
-extra resistance while activating super
-extra health

OP is basically the whole point of the titan

First, saying Gunslinger is somehow the most balanced class is hilarious. They have a prox nade that's a 0HK, their super can hit across the map and get 3 kills easy. Blade dancer is cheaper, but don't pretend gunslinger doesn't have advantages.

For your list:
-The Melee has the same exact range as a shotgun, but travels slower. What this means is, if someone is looking at you, they will shotgun you to the face before you hit them. Happens every time you try it and they're looking at you.
-Flashbang has it's advantages, but every other subclass/class has a 0HK nade, while Titan doesn't
-A near unavoidable super that unless you're playing control rarely gets more than 1 kill.
-EVERYBODY but the gunslinger gets extra resistance when activating super, unless you're talking about the perk, in which case the titan can't use that 0HK melee, they're on the same tree.
-They do have extra health, but they take the same exact amount of hand cannon shots to take down, and maybe one more auto-rifle shot. This comes at the cost of being the slowest class in the game.
 
When the new raid comes out will the current one disappear? Me and some other GAFfers got to the final boss last night but couldn't beat it. I still want to beat it, and I don't know if I'm on borrowed time.

Your checkpoint will be gone, yes.

You have less than 3 hours currently.

well, i disagree. nothing about the gunslinger feels cheap to me. their abilities leave you exposed, have visual and audible tells, and require aim. every other class has some cheap OHK or extra bullet resistance and health. it doesn't matter that the titan "usually only gets 1 kill" with the fist of havok. It's the fact that when he does, it's nearly unavoidable.

the gunslinger's advantage is range, and that's about it. range means shit on maps when half the maps have bad sightlines.

I'll agree that the titan super is cheap, but it's not OP if it gets less kills than everything else.
 
The raid is hard, but a lot of fun. Even unable to use my mic it was great....shame we couldn't get past the collection of the two relics and the precursor gatekeepers. Really need a legendary/exotic AR for it, and one or two level ups in the group but that's easier to do.


Good practise run. Where's my fancy blue titan mark :x
 
don't let me dissuade you from pocket infinity. it's awesome for pve, and the auto fire is hilarious, but it's range is shit without the upgrades, and it the clip sucks if you take the range upgrade for pvp. most super high impact with decent charge time with the charge time upgrades are better for pvp. 77 wizard is insane for pvp.

In terms of flashy damage and such, yeah, they're by far the worst.

But their crouch-to-stealth-to-resurrect is an absolute god-send.
Click to expand...

Never thought of that thanks! Their super is just so useless against tough enemies... it's a suicide. Love it in pvp though.

So I head up to the Skywatch to see if anyone's farming, and of course, people are. So I do the little quests around the area just for kicks. As I'm doing it I'm moving back and forth in front of the cave so I can gauge to see if the guys farming are taking issue with it. They are.

After I finish the side quests, proceed to dancing in front of the cave. I got a few angry messages too, but it was worth it. I'm so tired of seeing guys up at the Skywatch farming.

Why the fuck do you care if they are farming? Way to help justify the limited social options by fostering shitty progress blocking behavior.

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/

I love you for this. I've been wanting to read the lore, but the site is a pain at times, and I've been too busy to hunt ghosts.

I love these so far.

i mean, i'm obviously biased as a gunslinger, but i feel like whenever i encounter another class, their abilities are better than mine. i win because i play smarter, but in a super vs super, melee vs melee, grenade vs grenade battle, gunslinger usually comes in last IME.

throwing knife can miss (very easily) and isn't a OHK. so i have to shoot someone and then throw the knife at them. i don't use a shotgun, so in any given encounter with another player, shoulder charge, blink strike and the warlock melee easily overpower this even if the throwing knife hits them. blink + shotgun dodges this and eliminates any ranged advantage i had previously. grenade wise, the incendiary grenade was nerfed, so it's less effective at crowd control and easy to dodge. burn damage doesn't matter unless, again, the opponent was already damaged. the super on the other hand i don't think has any problems. maybe they can tune down the aim assist, but it otherwise is a high risk-vs-reward, which doesn't feel the same of the others. even with the high aim assist, it's easy to miss, and it doesn't OHK the other supers. golden gun often gets called out and if i hear it i'll hide for 10 seconds.

again, i'm biased so perhaps someone else has an experience to the contrary.
 
Does Nightfall strike give Vanguard rep points? And if so, does anyone want to do Nightfall strike? I know it's late, but I'm level 27 and really wish to do it before the reset.
