I thought 1 of each or just 1 in general would be fair compensation. Alternate getting 1 shard and energy.



Do crucible matches.

Well armor always gives shards, so it would be odd for them to alternate the energies, but yeah if I could get one Ascendant material I might actually bother doing the other 17 missions sitting in my inventory across my 3 characters. Wish I'd known that patch was coming I woulda knocked out 5 or 10 more last night instead of levelling my hunter up. /facepalm

how about make a real event

That would be a separate issue entirely (content shortage). I'm just trying to figure a way to allow us to at least do the crap that's in-game currently and earn Ascendant mats to gear up with. I was actually going to gear up my two alts for the raid with the mats from the Queen, but now that they've taken that away I doubt I'll ever gear up anything but my warlock tbh.

Shores of Time and Rusted Lands are the best maps in the game.



Xyor won't spawn. He's a special wizard that comes in on a ship after you kill a bunch of enemies.

Shores of time is a good map, but even rusted lands is a little shaky. Its trully shocking how downright terrible the MP component of this game is. Twilight Gap is seriously one of the worst MP maps in recent memory.

I've been wearing this Dead Orbit flag for almost a week and I've only just hit level 1 rep. There has to be a quicker way. What am I missing GAF?
Click to expand...
Bounties, bounties, and more bounties. Crucible and Vanguard progression will get put on hold, but it is worth it. I got a legendary auto rifle that is upgraded to holding 999 rounds for hitting level three with Dead Orbit. The gear they sell offers the same protection and looks better than the Queen's Revenge gear rewards (still holding onto one of each of those too for... reasons). I am at a low level for Crucible and Vanguard reputation, but for me, it was worth it.
 
I have this weird fixation now that I have to collect every good handcannon in the game. So far I have the Silvered Maverick, Regulator and I'm about to unlock Thorn.

Which ones should I get that can be bought or looted fairly easy? My friend has a really great handcannon called The Devil You Know. Can this be bought somewhere?
 
Patroclos said:
Exactly. Scout rifle is useless in PvP. It was my go to In Halo PvP. Hated the ARs in that. A good AR in this feels super close to the ones Titanfall released with. Those were vastly OP. I don't know if thy ever changed it though.
Click to expand...
Last game I seriously got into before this was Titanfall.

You want something really OP, that AR was insane. You could tell the same dudes who gifted us the M16 in the first Modern Warfare where behind that gun.

I had like a 4.0 when I stopped playing cuz of it tho lol.

COMPROMISE FOR QUEEN'S WRATH SITUATION

There is a very simple solution to the Queen's Wrath issue that they should've done to begin with. Make the head and chest items from the Queen's Wrath missions decrypt into ONE shard. Not 2 or 3, just one. They take about 20-30 minutes to complete the bounty and the subsequent mission. One shard from breaking it down then puts those bounty/mission combos essentially on par with doing daily events, thus giving people an incentive to play them without giving away "too many shards too quickly" (since that's apparently against their master plan).

What does everyone think? Doesn't this seem like a fair compromise???
Click to expand...

Yeah, nerfing the loot itself instead of ruining it seems like the obvious fix. I would even be okay with it not being a guaranteed drop but the shards remained the same, since it's going to be here for another week and give you a good amount of chances.

Their current fix is just baffling. Pointless for any high level to do it, and outright frustrating for lower levels who want the gear since you can keep getting repeats.

Yes, they should give something. I got the same helmet five times so I support that not being a total waste.
 
One of the biggest gripes im having with this game is the desire to make a new character.

MMOs and RPG games were always fun when you would level a new class through the beginning content. The problem with Destiny is that all the same content is recycled for level 20+ missions.
 
I'm gonna say it.

Everyone has been pussy footing around it. (Kinda)
This game is a disappointment. While it is fun and all it was, it was severely over hyped. It is good game but no where near what I would have expected from Bungie and their 500 Million budget.

I've never been big into Halo but I expected more polish.

I drank the Kool-Aid. I drank it....


Now who wants to get some Fred Segal breakfast or 800 Degrees Pizza?

*Edit*

All will be forgiven if DLC includes new CABAL Class.

I'm dying to play as a Cabal!

I'm angry/hyped because I totally forgot about the Naughty Dog Art Exhibit in Alhambra today. I was RSVP'ed!

For the team that stays back to guard the portals, don't have them sit on the actual portal spots. Instead have the team huddle in the center pillar of the map. The mobs are more attracted to the players than they are the pads, so they just gather at the ledges and allow you to kill them with relative ease.

For the team inside the time warps, give everyone a position. Have someone with a big heavy void rocket for dealing with the minotaurs, have another man in back just focusing on oracles and when the rocket person is done assisting the mob clean up have him refocus on the oracles. The 3rd person should be grabbing the shield and focusing on the rest of the mobs and ensuring the rest of the team can see well enough to make it through the time gate by cleansing them.

When artifact team exits the portals have everyone rendezvous in the center pillar. Have a titan with weapons of light pop a shield behind the team. Have the team dip into the shield bubble briefly, and then pop the artifact shield over them once they move up. The artifact holder NEEDS to cast the shield over the team. It'll protect you from the boss but also provides a damage buff which will stack with the buff from the titan. DO NOT USE ROCKETS INSIDE THE BUBBLE. All weapons can fire out of the artifact's shield, except for rockets. You'll kill yourself. I learned that the hard way. :lol

Not sure if it helps but here's a video I caught of the gaf raid clan clearing the final boss in around 8 minutes using this method: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X8GdOVMk3ko

Amazing. Had we known about the shield bubble centre pillar thing, I'm sure we could have done just fine.

And it's likely even with your main character that you've done a lot of the story missions multiple times thanks to the heroic daily and random bounties. On top of that, going through all the loads again, unskippable cutscenes, rebuilding rep for factions since you can only buy armor for your class...eh.

Foxix Von said:
I can't believe it. I didn't even know the map even existed until today. I swear that thing NEVER shows up in rotation.
Click to expand...

It only shows up in the smaller player count modes. I don't care for them so I haven't seen the map much to see how I feel about it. Anomaly also only shows up here.

Have someone like a Gunslinger Hunter or a Voidwalker Warlock be one of the time travelers so they can help the relic user get rid of the adds at the beginning of each area. When you travel back have everyone meet in the middle platform and have a Defender Titan have Weapons of Light and Illuminated equipped. Have the relic user hold the shield for the entire duration and have everyone else go through the Titan's bubble so they receive the damage buff. Shoot at the boss until there's around 5 seconds left so everyone can get back into position. Also everyone should try to stay alive since one death can chain react to more. You should be able to kill him in 4 to 5 travel loops, easily beating his enrage timer.

I'd also like to add that during the buff you have your super restored and unlimited grenades.

Your right, and the problem with destiny is I can almost know which enemies and where they are standing are on each strike..

Maybe they should have applied that RNG to Spawns...

what is the best mission to get the 200 fallen headshots bounty over with?
Click to expand...

No mission. Do Patrol on Venus and head over to the Ember Caves. There are two enemy groups there close to eachother that spawn with short intervals. One group on the balcony to the left and one on the ground just before the staircase. There are also a couple of Dregs between the groups and out on the fields. Almost all patrol missions there relate to Fallen kills so make sure you grab them while you do it.

When you say 5 seconds left, what are you referring to? 5 seconds of what left? Also, thanks for the post. Great tips.

They probably should have. Definitely would've helped the Strikes feel like less of grind and less repetitive, I think.

Dude there has been a shit load of people disappointed with Destiny. Don't know where you've been if you think otherwise.
 
Dear Cryptarch,
It's my 32nd birthday today, please grace me with a nice legendary, or exotic, piece for use with my Titan.

Regards
Guardian 143654
 
How much is an exotic Hunter's helmet likely to cost if/when Xur has one? I only have seven strange coins right now, and the weekly strike is the only guarantee that I'll get more in the near future.

Got to 29 yesterday, rank 5 vanguard, rank 3 Dead Orbit, rank 2 Crucible. After Xur, I think I'm done with Destiny for a few days. There is literally nothing to even grind for unless I can find a team of 29s to attempt the hard Raid. Its been fun. Probably moving on to Shadow of Mordor next week.

I'm up for Hard Raid. Lv 29 Titan, beat normal raid 5 times by now.
