I've been thinking, why is the Devil Walker the most interesting fight in the strikes?

One shot cannon, damage to expose weak spot, able to disable it's secondary cannon, spawns it's own adds. Why are none of the mechanics, or any other new mechanics seen or introduced in other strikes?

Answer is same as everything else that was cut.

I cant speak for the raid, but no other mob or boss has you blowing off / damaging body parts to expose a weak point. Its like this one enemy is from a different game.

I never realized this until now. It likely didnt get cut since it was the first thing shown to us.
 
This was the easiest Nightfall. did it with another 28 and a 25 guy. He saved our asses once though, which was a relief.

I had Arc machine gun legendary, and a fusion rifle. The fusion one shotted all normals. And 3 shotted those guardians. At the boss we stayed in the cheap spot. I jumped up, unloaded with machine gun for 800 ish a pop and died on purpose so my nade for about 5k damage would respawn right away so I could throw one again. We cleared adds at the catwalk above us when the boss was on the other side. At the end his face was up for shooting from where we camped and the fight went into lol mode.
 
So after around 7 tries I defeated this week Nightfall with two other players. Man those Little psions were a pain in the ass!

I got Sorus Regime as reward. Though Im not I want to use it instead of Doctor Nope.
Do you get anything for playing through it again?

If you have another character that can do it, yeah, but you only get the reward once per week on a given character.
 
I might actually buy some Vanguard Armour then dismantle it just for the 3 Ascendant Shards, it feels like a week since I earned one all I keep getting is energy.

First on the to do list for me and since I continue to get great drops from strikes double win. 15 shards from 29. Got to get em all.
 
Wow, the game really liked me today.

First i got this from the Nightfall:

Then i got this from ranking up with New Monarchy:

Then i found a legendary engram and got this:


Then i got this from a blue engram:


And finally i got another exotic bounty, Toland legacy. I am already doing the Thorn one. When those two are done ive gotten all except the Fate of all fools.

And ive only played for 4 hours after work.

This is what I did to get enough shards to hit Lv 30. Probably dismantled at least 5 pieces. Honestly I don't know what else I would spend my marks on at this point since I have exotic/raid gear and the only weapons I want are raid drops.

If you blow off a minotaurs head he can no longer teleport and will run straight at you.
 
I had no idea this game had 'collaterals'. I feel like there were times when I should have gotten some but figured this game didn't have that. Very interesting.

With the Gunslinger you can check abilities that give the Golden Gun penetrating power as well as explode an enemy if it's a kill and deal AoE damage. I've nabbed a number of "doubles" in PvP by firing off a headshot and the penetrating damage plus AoE damage from the first guy kills the one behind them.
 
I can just picture that little bastard running to the cryptarch to claim his prize.

I got the golden ticket!!!

Run for it, E92! Run straight to the cryptarch and don't stop 'til you get there!!

Thankfully it's a short run from the aircraft drop off point.
 
Man I keep running dry on spirit blooms. By far the hardest material to farm.

When you teleport down to Venus, for the love of god, go left. Go into all the caves and grab all bloom you see out in the open. There's a ton in that small area. Heading right at that initial fork in the road only results in heartbreak and despair.

I'm sorry.

I'm not
 
Did weekly strike and got 9 coins

Did Nightfall and got 9 Strange coins.

Got 2 strange coins from 2 blue engrams, making my total for today: 20 coins

You better have some good shit Xur 'cause my pockets are BURNING ! Also got to lvl 29 so today was a good day.

Btw, a good powered up Arc sniper (I used the Queen one) causes major havoc on the Tank and Valus on Nightfall. We could bring Valus down easily on Nightfall with the Arc modifier, it took way longer on the regular weekly lvl28.
 
Another average raid week for me this week :(

I got the scout rifle that has solar damage which will be sweet for any strikes that make use of that but still no raid gear so I am forever 28/29.

Reset again pls Bungie.

I kind of like that prudence II. very quick handling and seems to suit PvP sniper better than the long range slow ones.

I am so desperate for raid gear - totally sucks that it's all about luck considering its importance in leveling to 30.

All the answers you get will reflect badly on Bungie.

Bungie eats pizza today
Um, it's Pizza Wednesdays per prior update blog.

One guy in the group got raid gear, an exotic and two legendaries. RNG gonna RNG. I'd swap four exotics for full raid gear :3

That's because it is from a different game - Halo 3.

The scale is obviously different, but the mechanics are the same:

1) Shoot leg armor
2) Blow off leg armor to expose weak spot (Halo 3 this drops the Scarab so you can jump on board to attack the weak spot)
3) Tank/Scarab has 2 main canons used for attacking plus support from minor adds.
 
Wat

You can see it from a mile away

They are easy to spot but that doesn't mean they are easy to accumulate in mass.

When you teleport down to Venus, for the love of god, go left. Go into all the caves and grab all bloom you see out in the open. There's a ton in that small area. Heading right at that initial fork in the road only results in heartbreak and despair.

Right of the fork isn't THAT bad but the left is way better thanks to the close proximity of the caves. Sadly the areas suurounding both are rather 'barren'.

Last night I won my SECOND Ice Breaker in Crucible. I've had amazing drops lately.

edit: and just as I post this I get another Exotic Bounty. Sadly, I've already done both of them (for Thorn and Bad Juju).

I think I can speak for a lot of us here when I say that I hate you.

Kidding. You're a lucky bastard and I am jealous.
