I'm having a hard time countering a few attacks in the crucible

-I keep getting destroyed by what I think is a hunter super, the kill icon looks kind of like a knife/lightning bolt, usually happens so fast there is zero time to react but sometimes I see a guy jumping around killing teamates and am kinda sitting waiting for my turn to die while shooting wildly.

-Big bubble shield, how does it work? Can I run inside and attack or do I just need to run away?

-From time to time I see guys with a blue bar on their health, im assuming this is a shield? Is there a good way to take it out quickly or is it best to wait until its gone?
 
So... Thank you for the friend requests to run the raid like I asked. Sadly, I didn't realize PSN friend requests are NOT WORKING RIGHT NOW so I apologize for not accepting them. I'd really like to, but Psn won't allow me to. Urg.

Portal team definitely would have the easier job inside the portal if it weren't for the glitching.

I've never tried going to the middle for the outside team though, do you just focus fire to make sure the Supplicants don't tear you apart one by one? The pillar trick is annoying because you're a sitting duck up there.

Yup. It works like this:

1) Portal team gets warped. They say if they're in the left or right portal.

2) Outside team jumps to the middle except one person. That one person opens up the called out portal.

3) Once said portal is open, this person joins the other two in the middle and kill supplicants.

This works because the supplicants are very slow to react and if you're close or at level 28, they don't do much damage in small numbers. If you're already killing them, you'll never get to the point where their numbers can hurt you.

When I see people jumping around like they're playing hot potato, I'm like 'why?'

I dream that one day I'll find a guy that helps me the queen's missions or weekly heroic strikes so maybe I can get past this fucking level 23.

thanks based bungie for no matchmaking, by the way.


whatever I'm done.

Add me - airhoppz on PSN. Lv. 26 Warlock and closing in on Lv. 27. I have a regular group of guys I Fireteam with and we've decided to run the Weekly Heroic Strike every Wednesday when it's fresh. I'm also trying to rank up enough of the Queen's favor in the event it carries over to future weeks with better rewards, so I'm down to do those too.
 
This game would be way easier and more fun with people to play with.
Sadly, I don't have a lot of time to play so everyone is way higher levels than me.

And what's up with my brother and my dad saying this game looks so much like Halo?
I don't think so.

Has Sony even acknowledged this?

As far as I know, no they haven't.
I'm surprise a thread hasn't been made yet. With all the complaints and comments, one would think a gaffer would make a thread and bring this up.

This whole free weekend really screwed everyone over. I hope there won't be another free weekend for a long while. Next one will probably be around Christmas.
 
Just got to light lvl 29 and I am really just discovering handcannons. Saw the praise in the forums, but not a handcannon guy, got a legendary and figured I could at least level it, I have seen the light.

84% on metacritic for ps4

Assassin's Creed meets Batman Arkham City

A very cool system called the nemesis system where enemies adapt to you.

Read the OT.

There's a lot of GAF hype. And it seems warranted.

Yup, I like the traversal in AC and I like the combat in the batman games, so this is right down my alley. Hope that nemesis system is actually good and not easy to abuse in some way.

I used The Last Word so much I had to put it away.

I actually got that one too today from an engram, but got The Chance from night fall a couple days ago, got a nice roll with it. Kills give additional ammo to the magazine and misses can refund ammo to the magazine, also got the field scout perk for a 13 ammo clip...really addresses handcannon weakness nicely. Will probably level last word at some point, but happy with the chance for now.

At this point I think I would only replace it with hawkmoon, but will definitely see after trying last word.

1. Hard to counter unless you have heavy ammo or your own super. Tho it is easy to kill a bladedancer if you spot them from far(happens to me all the time).

2. Ignore them, whatever you do don't step in that bubble lol.

3. It's kind of like an overshield I'm not sure how they get it. I think it's a perk some classes have for getting melee kills, it doesn't go away unless you kill them.
 
Starting up a new character. What do you guys think?

Sitting in a good place.

27 Warlock just completed first raid.

26 Hunter.

22 Titan.

Lots of exotics and legendaries for all 3. Feels good man. :D
 
Speaking of hand cannons... Are there any Legendaries that have that cool animation that the Exotic hand cannon does, where you fan the hammer to fire? Or is it just that one (forgot the name)?

Remind me to have you as my Fireteam leader when I run the Vault again.
 
I don't know if there's room to do a lot more until Bungie fixes the loot. I finally got a Legendary drop and it was a Rare which was under what I already had. I'm a 23 and my drops have been horrible. They need some sort of tweak with vendors. Some are useless after level 18 and the rest need Ranks or coins. All the drops are pointless.

You guys got good drops or you ranked up to buy good gear. I'm on there for hours and I'm still at where I started after level 20. If I had the loot some of you had I wouldn't be complaining, but it's such a grind.
 
Can anybody explain how subclasses work? Like, do I have to switch over to sun slinger in order to level it up? Or can I stay void and just put the upgrades I nto sun slinger and then use it once I think it's ready?

As a blade dancer i love some titan popping a bubble on point. Clumps them up and I go in and start slashing. 3 strikes from a blade dancer can kill a titan in his bubble.
 
Damn, team lost.

"But on the bright side..."

And on an off note, feels good to help somebody with a Nightfall, and both got sweet legendaries, and I got my Clot of Darkness, and now it's time for bed.

I should probably do a raid one of these days if I'm gonna be in Raid GAF :p
 
Got my third -- or fourth, can't remember -- exotic from the crucible just now. Suros Regime. Thankfully I didn't buy it from Xur. I already have Hard Light and I'm gonna stick with that until I can upgrade the Suros a bit.

You must equip a subclass to level it up. So you can't progress Sunsinger while in void. However you can do stuff like bounties as void and then swap to Sunsinger when turning in stuff. This xp will apply to the subclass you have equipped. You can do the same to power up new weapons and armor a bit.

Jeez, the best thing I got from the crucible is a purple engram.
 
At this point I have next to nothing to do with my game and I can't find a raid group to finish the content for the life of me :(
