Destiny |OT5| New patch out Tues., Master Rahool reportedly crying into his robes

So, with the nerf to ARs coming, is it possible that a pulse rifle with the full auto and stability upgrades becomes a go to primary weapon?

I'm really just trying to give myself a reason to upgrade my Bad Seed Down if you couldn't tell.
 
I really don't get what Bungie wants from us at this point. I mean, they come up with this loot system that's based on randomness, which leads to the discovery of the Loot Cave, which allows people to at least get gear they can break down for upgrade materials. Yet that goes against their wishes so they shut it down.

So what are their wishes? That we just play endlessly and hope we'll magically get what we're missing and that it's not for a different class? I mean it's so ridiculous the way they've nerfed the Queen's Wrath missions. I've done it 4 times now and each time I've gotten a chest piece that is worse than what I had to begin with. But at least it had some value, as the first 3 times I was able to break it down to get Ascendant Shards and upgrade what I did have. Now I did it again yesterday, it was just as hard, but the prize was truly worthless to me. So why even do it?

One last bit of frustration. I've been working on my exotic weapon bounty, and now I'm apparently never going to be able to finish it. Why? Because my next task is to get a 25 kill/death ratio in the Crucible. I'm happy any time my ratio is over a 1. My really, really good games get me around a 4. To get a 25 seems like the most insane thing I've ever heard of. Like, if I were even killed twice, that would mean I'd need to get 50 kills.

How is that even possible? How can anyone be that good? They must really want nobody to complete this bounty.

I did it the hard way by getting 5-10 kills at a time. lol

If you don't have a solar gun, you might just want to wait for the next one maybe? The good thing about this one is that it's really fast to get to the start of the strike at least.

Yeah, that's what I started to do, but gave up at 16 kills. No patience for that but I am REALLY tired of having it taking up a mission spot. Maybe I'll just bite the bullet and set aside 3 hours for this.

Ah :(, I'd be on until 4am gmt but it might take longer and don't really want to be still playing when my wife gets up for work lol.

Yeah, no worries, I might catch you sometime this weekend. We did the nightfall strike the other day with two 27s and a 26 hunter, so I'd assume this one is fairly easier, especially if we can get a third person. I have solar weapons now :)

I would camp and no one would stop me. I'd only get up if enemies started pouring out the cave and got too far. I was like some old man sleeping on a porch with a hunting rifle.

I wouldn't shoot in the cave, but I'd make sure the cave worked.
Click to expand...

Lol. I was exactly the same. Whenever some random enemy wandered on my property (the hills outside the lootcave) they'd get shot.

Tried the new lootcave, it works, but sightlines are annoying, when enemies get out they can hide behind all sorts of cover. Mind you, I was playing solo. Tried standing on different girders up in the air there but it prevented them from spawning. It'll do for now, only need one more strange coin and then I'll have both Suros and Crest of Alpha Lupi.

At worst I guess you could wait until Tuesday to see if the next Nightfall has a different damage modifier for a fusion rifle you have an element of.

Any tips for finishing the Pocket Infinity exotic quest to kill 200 critters with a fusion gun in nightfall? It's taking..FOREVER. Also, I don't have a solar fusion gun :\

Farm the beginning area, where the Vex/Fallen are fighting. They are lower level and will respawn (public area).

People complain about this one way too many times while not understanding it.

It's your total ratio. If you had a 1 KDR in a match, keep doing that 25 times in a row and you'll pass the bounty.

What are the other bonuses it gives? And please could you post a screen of it in-game rather than just the close up preview?



Why can't you do the weekly? No one to do it with? If you're on Xbox One I'll help you out later. If not, try destinylfg.com or destinylfg.net to find a group.

Grenade hits restore melee

Get more energy from killing minions of the dark (any non guardian kill)

able to see your radar of your primary weapon while ADS

it has bad stats though. 95 base strength only, no other stat (well light at 21)
 
Is Apotheosis Veil a practical joke?
That thing is terrible. What the hell Bungie?

Warlocks get no new item last week and then a shit stain this week.

also, someone please help me with this life changing decision.

I also use a Doctor Nope for my AR. The Suros is better but I think you'd get more use out of the chest. It'll give you more light and is more useful in raids/end game content. Doctor Nope (assuming your rolls weren't terrible) is still very good.

And that wasn't a four hour debacle or anything. That said, as soon as we figured out the strategy, we did it second time through.

it's a spread not a ratio. get 25 more kills than deaths in as many rounds as you want and you're done
 
The change to the Queens Wrath missions getting rid of Ascendent materials was dumb as fuck. Bungie pretty much threw out any reason for players who already have full legendary gear to do the Queens bounties in the first place, which points to my original theory that the whole point of the Queens Wrath missions was to populate the game with more higher level players in time for the Iron Banner.

Well I'm glad there is a new loot "cave" but it's not nearly as fun as an actual cave.
Click to expand...

It's a loot closet and i'm gonna be all over that shit when I get home, just out of principle. I will farm every closet and dance between waves i hope the destiny staff watches me do it. I'm gonna throw down a solar grenade and have a campfire and roast marshmallows and sing songs. it will be the new social hub... until they take that away too.

where is Xur this weekend?

over to the right in the ship hangar, lowest area.

I'm in the same boat.

Fully upgraded GCIII so I'm hesitant to pull the trigger on the Suros.

Have 31 coins and 30 motes. Level 27 Titan, all legendaries just need shards to hit 28.

Might just gamble on the exotic Engram.
Click to expand...

Yeah, that's all I could commit to this morning after starring at Xur for 20 mins. You're probably going to get a Hunter or Warlock item but atleast that means Shards.

The GCIII is like a second limb at this point; I feel like I have a complete mastery of how it handles and shoots. The Suros is shiny & new, but I'm having a hard time seeing how it's an upgrade.
 
It's such a pain in the ass trying to get to the boss when trying to solo nightfall. Got the first minotaur part and had a shit load of goblins come from behind and they slaughtered me before I could throw out my bubble shield. Couldn't bring myself to start all over.

If anyone is looking to do the Nightfall strike hit me up at Xbl Xzilerate (Xbox One). Once we get to the boss it'll be cake as there's a certain spot you can get where neither the adds or the boss can hit you and you can shoot the boss. Just need help getting there. ):
 
realcZk said:
Haha, all the booze didnt help :) That was the most fun I've had in Destiny to date though.
Click to expand...

Agreed on both those fronts. Not sure if you saw my other comment but I'm out of town for the weekend so can't join in on the fun until Monday.

I'll be ready to roll on the reset though so let's link up and get it all done before Xur shows up again next weekend.
 
So does the Xur Warlock Helm suck this week? I'd like to get to level 28 to make soloing the daily/weekly/nightfall stuff easier but I don't want a shitty exotic. Might just get the Suros even though I have a fully upgraded scout legendary.
