How do you get weapon bounties?

 

[AmethystEnd]

You get loot once a week, but can play it as much as you want. After you get your loot, you wont get anything else until the reset.



Aw that sucks.

"(Sunsinger sticky grenade spam)"

To me, this is way more fun than spamming Solars.

I agree, but I switch based on situation. It's always stickies when I'm fighting a boss. But that's why I really wish I could get Heart of the Praxic Fire instead of the Sunbreakers I'm wearing.

 

[R0ckman]

I agree that the fight needs to be patched. Still you should be winning within ten trys with a team who knows what they are doing. You can easily be screwed over by bugs, but a good team will be able to win in a short amount of time with a run without getting unlucky and encountering the bugs. My team last tuesday beat the last boss on our very first attempt. We didn't even decide who was gonna be on what team until the last boss came out. If your defense dies repeatedly then they suck. It is so easy to stay alive as defense. The only people that should be messing up is the shield team. Thats only because the shield part requires some luck on the first teleport. Less luck is needed on the other teleports because the guy defending you will probably be able to pop a super.

Yeah, a lot of times I join a group because I'm really good with the relic. But its like a trade off. Last night I was with a few GAFs and that was the only time I had a good outside crew, but the bugs ripped us apart until we gave up. Other groups I was with the outside group could never get their shit together. Adds swarming the portal entrance when we come back, people dying, not leaving the middle etc.

 

[KINGofCRA5H]

Yeah, floating chests happen all over the place. Seen one on each planet. Weird.

How do you get weapon bounties?

They're completely random.

 

[GruntOfAction]

Look what I found on Mars. A mysterious floating treasure box!!!

It would've been funnier if it was on the moon and had 100 helium in it.

 

[MagicWithEarvin]

I love my Invictus!

Invective is the best shotgun for PVP, such a beast

 

[TheCanisDirus]

Murder holes going bye-bye. There'll be another farm spot though, somewhere.

I've got a solid one on lock on the moon. Only difference is you need ranged weapons (pulse/scout/sniper) but you get 4 different groups of enemies spawning around you and just have at it.

 

[Brolic Gaoler]

I think I just found one patch note, just broke down a Queen's Wrath armour piece and got zero ascendant shards.

No, that happens when in a loading screen. You probably still got shards, just nothing pops up.

 

[True Underdog]

OT5 already?

Y'all my kind of crazy.

 

[Goreomedy]

Someone confirm

I can confirm.

 

[Patroclos]

Invective* Sorry, had to :<

But it is as black as the night that covers it from pole to pole!

 

[everyday math]

[Tawpgun]

I should really get on that Bounty...

 

[JetBlackPanda]

its all over reddit. Looks like no more ass shards from breaking down queens rewards.

wow.. fucking wow

how am I supposed to get anyone above 24 to run the queens wrath missions with me?

 

[Bizazedo]

This 200 fallen headshots bounty is bullshit and has been up every damn day since the Queen's Bounty started.

Funny thing is that she wants Fallen headshots. She has Fallen as guards.

Ding ding ding.

The House of Wolves is the name of the Fallen House that served the Queen. The first DLC is centered around them. They revolt against her or something.

The bounties are hinting at this. It's not just the headshot ones, notice how many focus on Fallen, period.

They're attempting further storytelling.

Not completely true and this is something I feel a lot of people are overlooking for some reason. Stats. There's more than just the generic defense and light. The Discipline, Intelligence and Strength rolls vary, not only which ones are on the armor, but the actual values themselves. I believe legendaries cap at 50 for each? So even if you want Int/Discipline, you may get 44/45 but maybe that new mask that just dropped is 50/49 or something.

Not to mention the other abilities a piece of gear can have.

Yeah, I'm kind of shocked people are ignoring the stats. Level *is* important, but once you hit 28 or 29, you're mostly good, and those stats / perks will skyrocket in importance.

 

[Afrocious]

I agree, but I switch based on situation. It's always stickies when I'm fighting a boss. But that's why I really wish I could get Heart of the Praxic Fire instead of the Sunbreakers I'm wearing.

What does Praxic Fire do?

 

[FrankT]

I can confirm.

Damn Bungie

I'm like a hair from 28. Need those stupid shards give us more options.

 

[keakster]

How do you get weapon bounties?

Random, but turning in a lot of bounties helps. I would say that I've completed 35 or so bounties and have received 3 exotic weapon bounties

 

[KINGofCRA5H]

I can confirm.

I DO NOT BELIEVE YOU NOT LISTENING LA LA LA LA

 

[super-famicom]

Just downloaded a 299KB update for Destiny. Hope it increases drop rates!

 

[EL CUCO]

The cave of wonders has been sealed.

 

[nib95]

I can confirm.

Fuck you Bungie you dumb fucks.

 

[everyday math]

I can confirm.

Alright...done with this game. I can't grind anymore.

Just downloaded a 299KB update for Destiny. Hope it increases drop rates!

Just takes shit away

 

[hydruxo]

Did you do it while in transit between worlds? Usually if you do that it won't update the materials rewarded until you land.

Yeah this. Go double check your inventory.

 

[Afrocious]

Some greens and a spinmetal obviously.

 

[SpideySenses]

No, that happens when in a loading screen. You probably still got shards, just nothing pops up.

Nope, got 2 armour pieces that popped up staight away but no ascendant shards.

 

[AmethystEnd]

What does Praxic Fire do?

Reduces cooldowns even further while in Radiance.

 

[Jarate]

So I just gotta a legendary chest piece out of an engram, but I already have one that I bought from the Vanguard Mark dude

Which piece would be better because they look to bring the same amount of light. Should I just go off of desirable effect?

 

[The Librarian]

The cave of wonders has been sealed.

ahahahahahahahahahahahaha

 

[Marcel]

Patch notes for 9/25/14

You'll eat the grind and like it.

Love,
Bungie

 

[ArkkAngel007]

Did they ever fix the public event on Mars with the minotaur that teleports from his spawn directly to the exit checkpoint after receiving too much damage? I've run into that guy three times so far to similar degrees of frustration.

I haven't ran into him since my first time on Mars and was trying to take him down solo. Hopefully if there is an issue there it will be, if it hasn't already, be attended to.

Look what I found on Mars. A mysterious floating treasure box!!!

Yep, it's a known bug. Have only ran into them in the bunkers on Mars, but I'm sure it happens elsewhere.

 

[darkwing]

What did they patch now? The cave?

I don't think they can patch that easily besides I think that prevented a lot of people from leaving the game

 

[MaximusPayne]

Random, but turning in a lot of bounties helps. I would say that I've completed 35 or so bounties and have received 3 exotic weapon bounties

Care to elaborate of what you have to do once you get them. Is it really hard?

 

[FrankT]

People be leveling up and they be like;

Nope

 

[Kensuke]

The Monte Carlo AR has an extremely unpredictable and shaky recoil. It makes it impossible to get crits consistently. Does anyone know how much the stability upgrade helps? I love the looks of the Monte Carlo, but I'm fearing it might be worthless.

 

[super-famicom]

Alright...done with this game. I can't grind anymore.

Just takes shit away

Fucking fuck

 

[Off-Kilter]

5th OT. Goddamn.

Despite the lukewarm reviews, the thirst for this game is damn real.

 

[Brolic Gaoler]

its all over reddit. Looks like no more ass shards from breaking down queens rewards.

wow.. fucking wow

how am I supposed to get anyone above 24 to run the queens wrath missions with me?

Wow,well that ruins the entire reason do even bother with her shit.

 

[jacob armitage]

Jesus OT5.

 

[Bizazedo]

its all over reddit. Looks like no more ass shards from breaking down queens rewards.

wow.. fucking wow

how am I supposed to get anyone above 24 to run the queens wrath missions with me?

If that's real, it solidifies my belief they don't know what the fuck they're doing. They should've known high levels would view the Queen Bounties as a source of Ascendants and done something BEFORE they released the event.

 

[Afrocious]

Reduces cooldowns even further while in Radiance.

Wow that's sick. Ugh, there's so many choices of gear to max out late game.

 

[Wallach]

Yeah this. Go double check your inventory.

Sounds like it was indeed changed in the patch. The "loot cave" now respawns much slower as well from the sounds of it.

 

[Strider]

its all over reddit. Looks like no more ass shards from breaking down queens rewards.

wut. That's the only reason to do them. I mean it did make leveling up too easy, but damn. Event is pointless now.

 

[ZROCOOL]

This is what happens when you work together.

Ha! Nice partying up with you and Valy91.

 

[Astral]

Alright...done with this game. I can't grind anymore.

Just takes shit away

Agreed. Holy fucking shit. Why would they even do this? They're doing everything in their power to extend this game more than they need to.

 

[KINGofCRA5H]

Please Bungie, enlighten us with your logic on why you did this. Not the loot cave, the scraping for shards

 

[anddo0]

Rumor: New patch removes shards from Queens bounty armor breakdown.

edit; late

 

[El_Fenomeno]

I beat a queen's wrath mission, was a rewarded the usual. Then right before I get the maintenance message it said I received a legendary gauntlet. I return to the game and nada.

 

[MagicWithEarvin]

I should really get on that Bounty...

Easiest bounty ever

Complete 5 strikes without dying
Earn a 25 K/D spread in Crucible
Complete a weekly strike
Purchase 50 special ammo packs from the Gunsmith (12.5k Glimmer needed)

 

[Mchardy]

I can confirm.

I'm glad I was able to get to level 28 before they did this.
