Ah crap I need 200 kills with Fusion Rifle and of course it is Cabal strike. Anyone know a good place on this strike where I could "farm" this?

I have no idea why you decided to quote my post coupled with that GIF.

At least I tried the class and I love it for what it is, but I hate it for the sheer amount of popularity.

Everywhere I look there are Hunters doing the exact same thing I am doing. It is just boring.
 
I am starting to hate Hunters as well just because of the sheer fact that there are so many of them.

I leveled one until 25 but I already got two pieces of Legendary Items for my upcoming Titan and it feels like I am going to stick with him.

For me its the sheer hopelessness and despair at watching a bladedancer make a bee-line for you while you back away emptying clip after clip into them and while they carve you up and bounce off on their merry way. How anyone at Bungie thought that was a good idea is simply baffling
 
I was gonna ask this earlier. Is it just me or is the full auto mode fucked? I hold down the trigger and sometimes it doesn't come out or other times I get a few shots and it just stops.
It's weird, some times it'll do a 2-3 shot burst then you need to click again other times it's fine.

I thought was me easing off the trigger or something
 
They didn't say which week, month or a year. Could be any Tuesday from now to infinity... ... .. .

"The 1.0.2 patch will go live next week" And I guess it was posted last week. From what I have read, there was no mention of tuesday. So it could be any day this week.

I wasn't talking about Bungie's announcement, I was talking about thread title.
;)
 
Kill Xyr..solo

That is my only option, since all my friends are way too low level for a 26 thing, and i dont know anyone else who can help me. Wonder if its possible? Ill stock up on heavy ammo and bring a rocket launcher, the wizards are ofc the worse part.

You on PS4? I really need to do it too! Level 27 Voidwalker, Deadceptor on PSN. I'm ready right now and available for 2 hours. Can't use mic though 'cos my GF is sleeping.
 
If the patch goes live today then I assume it'll be when Bungie wakes up. It's a bit early ATM.

If the patch doesn't go live today then... Mods pls.

Cool, ill add you immediately! I got a post looking for a third but we can try together to maybe do it =P. Not got mic plugged either
 
Any tips to solo this weeks strike (level 28 weekly to get the 9 strange coins)?

Going to team up for the Nightfall though, can't be arsed to go through that and suffer alone.
 
Just got another exotic bounty, not sure which to take. Bad Juju (pulse rifle) or Super Good Advice (machine gun)? I'm tempted to take Bad Juju just because it looks cool.

The other option is Pocket Infinity, which I already have. Also, I have Red Death already, as well as a legendary pulse rifle. Not sure I need another one, especially since I rarely use pule rifles.

Bad juju will be ok if they buff the ammo clip and recoil.

Super good advice is crap.

Swarm is the best mg in the game imo
 
At some point they may allow it. But all the abilities may be too much power.
I hope they don't. being forced into a build by choosing your two exotics is one of the most interesting aspects of endgame at the moment IMO. as your collections grow, you have more options but it doesn't just out and out make you more powerful to have exotic gear that can go in every slot. you have to decide which slots to "spend" on your exotic.

i had this 5 Clash matches bounty, so I decided to do a little experiment.

there's been lots of discussion about balance in pvp, even more recently than in the first days. at various points I have heard arc blade, auto rifles in general, sunsingers, the Suros Regime in particular called "obviously OP." the vex mythoclast, "disgustingly" OP.

well pocket infinity gets to join the OP club too.

the idea was this: I'd commit to the all pocket infinity strategy. I would not use arc blade at all, even a single time, and just let my super bar sit there full for all the matches. I would not swap to my hand cannon no matter how badly the distance called for it, unless I was completely out of secondary ammo. I would focus entirely on creating and taking advantage of situations that are good for fusion rifles.

Because I would not be using the clearly most OP super in the game, I would be at an individual disadvantage against any other player. Because I would also not be generating orbs of light to reinforce my team's super use, I would also have to struggle not to be a liability overall with such a handicap.

Results: 4W-1L, in the top 3 scoring in all 5 matches.

During the first match on Blind Watch, a bladedancer ran out and killed a teammate, then I killed him with the triple blast from Pocket Infinity. I sought to capture this moment:
you can see the icons of one arc blade kill, then my fusion rifle kill. shut down.

In the one loss, which was on First Light (ugh), I kind of predicted how it was gonna go. An all fusion rifle strategy on that map was just not ideal and we got largely picked apart by snipers including myself, over and over again, while I won any close-quarters encounter I could create. I hate snipers. I did carry my team to some extent, but one of ours left and it was never really close.
Mr. Badness there with the 14.0 k/d was using the sniper rifle from the raid and he was untouchable. so annoying.

But, justice- I got to end the following match with a fusion blast to the back of his head.

Also in that First Light match, I caught a blade dancer with part of a fusion rifle blast and then traded deaths with him from my melee attack. again shut down during arc blade.

On Exodus Blue, as expected, the all PI strategy paid off completely.
This match comes with a PSA: if you are killed in a chokepoint and notice the gun that killed you is called Pocket Infinity, do not continue rushing back to that chokepoint over and over when you spawn. Go somewhere else entirely, force the fusion rifle holder into the open where you can land some shots from heavy cover. It turned into a goddamn fusion meat grinder there on Earth for a while. I certainly became a target (you can see the higher deaths than anyone else on the team), but I am sad to say no hate mail raging at me for using OP guns :(

After my Clash matches I went into Rumble for fun. I immediately had an incredible, razor-thin match on the Shores of Time. The top three players each had the lead at least 4 or 5 times throughout. I was getting consistently outplayed by the guy who finished second, using a Galahad-E. With the clock winding down I got a lucky drop on two players and then extended to a 5-kill streak. I looked at the score and I knew one more kill would do it. then I heard the indistinguishable sound of a bladedancer activating arc blade in a tunnel nearby. I knew his exact location.

I don't know what came over me. I had plenty of ammo for pocket infinity. I should have stared him down and blasted him with fusion before he came anywhere close.

but I decided it was time to go back to my bread and butter. pocket infinity was fun and certainly viable but I love my hand cannons. lacking the ability to have hawkmoon equipped at the same time I swapped to my trust Regulator, a rare.

bladedancer peeked out. started to run at me.

remember your training hawk. stand your ground. headshot. headshot. body shot. melee.
bungie pls nerf everything
 
No joke just got another legendary. Thats 4 in an hour. Shame the patch hasn't gone live because 2 became rare.
