Man, as happy as I was to get that Legendary auto rifle - Hex Caster Arc, the recoil on it is fucking ridiculous. Almost not worth using, and I don't think the upgrades affect stability at all.

Anyone else use it?

I use it since it's my only Primary Legendary. It does get a Stability update. It's pretty good in PVE since it fires 60 bullets in like 2 seconds.
 
At 29 coins right now. Just need to get one more and I'll be able to get an armor piece & weapon if Xur has stuff that is worthwhile. Hoping for Crest of Alpha Lupi and Last Word.
 
If you did most of the Queen bounties from the first two days you are able to hit rank 1, i ranked up when i turned my first one in today and i hadn't done them all the previous days. So technically they arnt wasted bounties. The shader is ugly btw, save your money.
 
I do wish there was a bit more variety in the physical appearances of the Legendary weapons. Just having a brand on the weapon of the logo of the faction it belongs to really isn't enough.
 
Destiny |OT5| Blue Balls

do it.


I'm enjoying the different things this game has had me doing the past week. The first week was all about gettin dem legendaries. Now that they are mine I have plenty to do.

I started last night by running a few easy bounties cause I need XP to upgrade new weapons. Followed that up by running 7 level 24 strikes cause I needed the Vanguard Marks to buy the Sniper that I wanted. Then ran a Queen's Mission real quick to test it out. Rounded out the night by farming for about 15 pieces of Relic Iron to complete my armor upgrade.

Tonight is PvE bounties then Crucible.

I'd say that is variety and I appreciate it.

It does? I don't see it. Other than some scope mods (which don't seem to affect stability other than the original one, I think - but I can't check the differences through the app), there's

- Extra damage w/ second half of clip
- Radar stays on while looking down the sights
and then the option between
- Fast reload
- Max ammo capacity
- Switch weapons faster/move quicker while aiming

Am I missing something?

EDIT: Checked the website. Yeah, nothing affects stability, that I can see.

EDIT: Oh goddammit, I got a version without it. I didn't realize that those parts could be random.

I'm not that great at PVP but I think the key is to not concern yourself at all with K/D ratios. Just play for the hell of it as even a defeat nets you 2 marks.

Try mixing it up a little. Experiment with different weapons/play-styles and if they don't work then try something else. If it really stops being fun to play then take a break for a while and do some PVE.

I agree completely.

I find that some maps I really, really suck at playing (looking at you Firebase Delphi) and I think a large component is that I don't know these maps that well and my weapon selection for those maps are subpar. I found in my quest to become level 2 with the Future War Cult, that I enjoyed playing the Crucible bounties because they required me to try different weapons and different techniques. Give that a try, because it will force you try new weapons.

I typically never have a 1.0 k/d ratio (more like 0.5 k/d), but I find enjoyment because I will have a run or two of good fortune each evening of five to ten matches. I had a skirmish run where I was sucking really badly (even for me) and then I went on a five killing spree to end the game and watched us go from losing to winning. Moments like those and shutting down people who attack a point I own in Control is why I play Crucible.

My advice find your bliss in Crucible, watch your HUD, and learn the maps and which weapons work in which areas. Humans are much more unpredictable than the AI, but with experience you'll learn our patterns on each map and figure out how to exploit our greed of getting headshots and taking Control points.
 
This game wants me to use Shotguns more than anything...

Universal Remote
The Comedian
Judgment VI

And of the three Exotic bounties I was given, the only one I wanted was Invective.

If you meet me in pvp I'll apologise in advance, but I don't have much choice...

is there any chance that bungie might talk about some of the (valid) complaints in a weekly update?
Click to expand...

Doubt it, why would they admit that the loot system is broken or that PvP balance is worse then the beta with all the rares and supers dominating, it will be swept under the rug.
 
My apologies if this has already been posted. But its too funny.

Is there any reason to increase vanguard rep beyond rank three at all?

If I equip an item to turn more vanguard rep into a factions rep I can still get vanguard marks right?

Each rank after 3 nets you a legendary from that faction. Yes, you still earn Vanguard marks regardless of which faction you are currently repping.

SepiksPrime is also pretty quick, especially in a fireteam. My best time on that is 8:17, haven't tried timing the others yet

On the other hand, there is no time limit on that bounty, so you could just do it gradually
Click to expand...

At some point in this bounty you need to buy something off Xur, so I have a self imposed time limit so to speak.

That and I want my bounty slot free ASAP.

Doing the earth strike yesterday was horrible, people kept quitting after the fallen walker. :(
