The Cryptarch gave me a Universal Remote tonight from one of his Legendary Engram packages. I don't even know what's going on in the world anymore.
so i was wondering whats the difference between 5-6 mag handcannons and the 8+ ones? is it similar to borderlands(1) where the smaller mag revolvers deal more damage to make up for the clip size? or are all handcannons with a small mag doomed to be worse then the ones with a bigger mag.. i haven't really found an answer to this, was hopping people on gaf might know whats up.
Ah, ok then, next week then.
I managed to solo all of the Queen's missions; just take it slow, and pay attention to what modifiers are active. Manage your special and heavy weapons to match the shield of specific enemies; even those Shanks can wreck you if you don't have a Solar weapon on you.
For tough mobs, including the Kell's Guard on the appropriate level, a rocket launcher to the face, with damage applicable to the modifier, works wonders.
You really have to watch yourself and play conservatively. I found it enjoyable to be honest.

I really wish Bungie would add matchmaking to the weekly, dailies and things like the queen missions. How is having to get on a message board, and ask strangers to play a game with you any better than match making through the game? It's just more tedious to me and makes me not want to play the higher level missions/ strikes.
I work nights so on my off days the only 2 people I know IRL with the game are sleep. Also, myself and the few people I know who play games are almost 40 with lots of responsibilities so it's hard to get together anyway. I just think Bungie has their heads up their ass with this no matchmaking stuff. Let me decide if I want to play with random people or not.
Im at the point in the game where I really need to start doing higher level missions/strikes to level up but it's such a chore to get people together that I don't want to even bother with it.
Also, I completed one of the Queens Wrath missions solo but it was so hard that I stopped having fun about half way through. And of course all I got for a reward was a legendary that was lower level than what I already had. Stuff like that really sours me on an otherwise great playing game. And ultimately that's what keeps bringing me back is the gameplay, I think they totally screwed up the social and loot aspects.

Yeah, really need a 'hold b to skip' option. I went into the menu and fiddled with my gear and settings during this. Still had to listen to Bill Nighy deliver some lines I don't think he was particularly invested in though.
Would also be nice if they mentioned which story mission he and other similar bounties appear in. Went on an hour long roam of Old Russia in patrol looking for him. Had to Google in the end.
There absolutely needs to be more strikes. Obviously the low number was to allow people to learn them all, but Bungie really needs to think about adding some more soon... for free.
Yep, they will. It sucks how you aren't guaranteed a piece of Raid gear every week you finish it though, all I got this week was around 15 ascendant shards and admittedly, a badass scout rifle with solar damage, which made Nightfall a breeze lol
Ah well, at least when I eventually get the other two Raid armour pieces I'll actually have the shards to fully upgrade them.

Repeating my post from earlier in case anyone who missed it knows the answer:
Is it possible to get to level 29 with non-raid gear? With all legendaries and one exotic, fully upgraded? I just got to 28 with the Queen's help and still have 7 upgrades to go on my gear.
It would be easy to calculate if you could see which upgrades will add +1 light and which will add +2, but I don't see any way to determine that in the game. (Lack of useful information in this game? Shocking!)

Yes.
Destiny is the best game I've played so far when it comes to "time to kill". It's not COD where you die as soon as someone looks at you, and on the other hand, you aren't a bullet sponge which takes an entire clip (or two) to kill.
I usually have to reload after each kill, since I can rarely kill two opponents with a single clip (only if I manage to pull off almost 100% headshots).
My god, Cabal + Angry modifier = Turd lol.
Having to aim at those guys with the shield when they don't get staggered by anything is awful. Especially when you have another >5 dudes shooting at you lol. It's completely posible with patience and stuff, obviously but I find it terribly boring. Considering my playtime is limited to 1 hour in the morning (while I drink my breakfast coffee) and 2 hours at night, I prefer to do different stuff.
And this game really needs a (virtual money) auction house for materials and that kind of stuff.
And do you guys have any tip for leveling faster my epic automatic riffle? I've redeemed some finished bounties with that thing equiped (like 10-12) and I haven't even unlocked half the stuff it has available D:

29 is the absolute cap for non-raid, yeah. an accomplishment imo.
It seems to me that PD was given little direction; half the time it's like he's not been given any context for the lines.

None of the story has any context so it's not surprising .

So I wondered how they're going to approach exposition in this game further down the line. Think dinklage will come back? That's my biggest curiosity. Its gotta cost a penny to have him record lines. Will they (hopefully) add more characters to this world to dull out lore?
Could you imagine them killing off the ghost because they couldn't get him back. That'd be hilariousssss.

So can you only complete a single queens wrath story mission per day or can you keep doing them for more rewards? I have 7 queens wrath quest items and not exactly sure what I should be doing with them.

what raid gives you that make you go from 29 to 30 ?

Nah. I did two of them solo. You just gotta be more careful about getting shot and taking cover to recover. It's just a pain if you die in a no respawn zone so you gotta try to not get too greedy and be aware of your surroundings.
Keep on doing em as long as you have the missions.
You can keep doing them. As long as you have a Queen's Wrath token in your inventory you'll get a Legendary drop.
Even if you get the same one a few times, it's worth it for the mats.
3 more light per piece.

its going to be fun to see if we get more queens bounties today
Raid gear and exotics are the true best-in-slot items. The weapons have +damage to raid enemies and the armor has higher base light. Raid armor is necessary for the last bit of light to hit 30.
Surely not....be handing out legendaries to all!
I did the Winter Kell mission for her bounty yesterday and god damnit those fucking Shanks raped me. With a lot of patience I made it to the boss just to realize that it was all for nothing. Couldn't beat him because he spawned 5 of those flying butts and I ran out of heavy ammo... I'll probably end up abandoning that bounty.
The AR is too buff. I'm sniping people in the head at distance with it. WTF
Lower the accuracy at far range and give a slight buff to scout rifles. Hand cannons are already pretty good. Let the pulse rifle have the current AR range (and probably buff that too cuz I never see this in pvp)

No destiny until 5pm

I imagine this to be the kind of thing that is fixed in the future...
but you can just go to orbit and "reroll," and get the earth mission.

How do you guys spend your ass mats? I'm too afraid to spend honestly. I know that after fully upgrading my Legendary I will get an Exotic. Like last week, after buying an Exotic arm with strange coins I got an Exotic chest, lol.
anyone got any information on this? bumped in case no one saw. thinking about buying a handcannon with my hard earned marks and would love some info on this
raid
hell no. higher mag hand cannons all the way. they are amazing.,anyone got any information on this? bumped in case no one saw. thinking about buying a handcannon with my hard earned marks and would love some info on this

Fallen Walker spawn at X45 at The Divide if you don't want to do the Strike.
Really Bungie? Does anyone over there even look at what bounties are put up each day? No one has enough rep for this one.
