is rep shared between characters? please tell me it is


at least they addressed the clan issues

oh wait

lol no it's not

Oh for real? Which current event? Is it one of the options off to the side when looking at the planets? like mission of the day or something?

get a queen's bounty at the bounty guy. this will give you an item when you complete it, then go do the queen's daily mission and you'll get a legendary helm, chest, sniper or ship.
 
I get that Bungie wants to patch exploits in the game but come the fuck on. at least give us some positive news to go with it that goes into effect today.
 
Overall, I think these changes are for the best. What I don't like is that they felt the need to patch the Treasure Cave and the Queen's Ass Shards immediately, while the fixes to the Crypturd and the rewards, etc. are "coming soon". Should have waited to fix everything, because I can see some leaving and never coming back.
 
So what do the Queen items give you when you dismantle them now?

You get this

Queen's Wrath.

Do a Queen's bounty to get a Queen's mission token thingy. Then you run the top symbol on the left side of the world map (it's a special queen mission) to get a random legendary item. Helm seems to drop quite frequently. However, if you get a duplicate item, you can't do anything with it. So you MAY get squat.
 
I look forward to the renaming of Legendary Engrams to something vague and generic to eliminate players backlash when getting Rares. Problem identified.
 
No offence but people farming a cave and lvling up wrong and than complaining now they have no reason to do the queens mission...

Oof.

Leveling up wrong? In a game that gives you experience for practically everything, from pvp, to bounties, to repeating the same mission over and over again, to just killing things, there is a wrong way to level up?....
 
In WoW, we used to raid every week and sometimes get nothing. At lease their isnt DKP in Destiny.

Most people playing this game have no concept of what Bungie wants to achieve with the raid and other materials. This is how games of this nature have legs and keep you coming back.

If you got everything you needed in two weeks of the raid, why would you ever go back?
 
Welp I might be done, I thought the ascendant thingy from the queen stuff was intentional. This is pretty dumb, back to spending days playing for naught in this loot game. All Bungie does is remove ways to attain goals, I was thinking about alts but fuck knows I cba leveling them up to 30 at a 2 ascendant shards a week pace.

Queen's Wrath...check the bounty board. I would think you're also probably collecting Vanguard marks as you go, probably without even noticing.
 
When you shoot an enemy with a shield, they will glow blue/purple/orange, NOT the color of the shield on their health bar.

Arc ► Bladedancer, Striker
Solar ► Gunslinger, Sunsinger
Void ► Defender, Voidwalker

OOoh!! So that's what you jabronis mean when you talk about colored shields. I thought I was going color blind.
 
Have 2 friends that are trying to join my clan. Even sent a request to join after they already joined the group. I'm not getting notifications. Any ideas?
 
Community Management 101, you don't patch out long standing exploits without buffing alternatives in the same hotfix. Bungie have no idea what they're doing.

Long standing? for a game that has been out two weeks, and the cave that only gained traction in the last week?
 
How about the part of the patch which nerfs engram drop chances when you die either solo or all as a team? Does that effect everyone in every mission? Does that effect the raid?

If some random guy is trying to complete a missions and is dying a lot, according to the patch his chances of getting an engram is significantly dropped. How is that fair to the non-exploiters?

Its a hard wipe, meaning team.

Pretty sure this is to address the farming method of jumping off a cliff after killing a wave of enemies.

Probably only kicks in if you die many times in a short period.
 
Caved in and bought a legendary? ALL of mine are bought... Looking forward to the day I finally have a legendary weapon... weeks after launch...

I wouldn't mind my shit luck so much if the marks cap wasn't so low.
 
No offence but people farming a cave and lvling up wrong and than complaining now they have no reason to do the queens mission...

Oof.

I'm leveled up and didn't do the cave farming. I have both legendary pieces from the Queen's Wrath missions already. I do the bounties for the XP but, what reason do I have to run one of the missions now? It's not just cave farmers that decision affected.
 
To quote this again:

Missions

•Reduced drop rate of engrams following a hard wipe [fixed in 1.0.1.4]

This affects EVERYONE. Including legitimate players. Struggling on a mission? Tough shit. You get nothing for finally finishing it.
 
They really should have at least included one of the upcoming positive changes in this patch. If today's notes would have included, "rewards for strikes and high difficulty missions have been increased" was included, it would have saved a lot of face. All of this, soon, should, upcoming isn't good enough.

Make your game better with patches, don't just pull the rug out on a handful of exploits.

Exactly. Don't get rid of the good stuff with only promises of better. Only remove it when you're implementing the features taking its place. This update has royally pissed me off. No way I'm farming Public Events to get shards, they get boring as hell.
 
Nice try Bungie,but there are a-lot more things to fix in the Crucible besides nerfing and adding more damage to specific guns.

Do that last. First, focus on the inconsistencies in these maps.

No, they need to buff Scout Rifles now.... My Cryptic Dragon is waiting to actually be viable in pvp.
 
God damn whatever your opinion of the game one thing is clear: Bungie dun goofed. Their name used to mean insta-buy for me. Now I'm waiting for reviews from now on. Jesus I used to own my xbox solely for my love for Bungie.


This is more sad than anger inducing for me.
