try this https://www.bungie.net/en/Legend/2/4611686018429499189/2305843009215623603#gear

let me know when you look cause I can swap out some other exotics to at different upgrade levels to test.

Results:
Code:
"level": 3,"step": 0,"progressToNextLevel": 23730,"nextLevelAt": 30000,

I assume this means you're on the 4th column of upgrades for that Monte Carlo, on the first step and you have 23730/30000 xp earned for that upgrade.

That's a lot of XP compared to the legendary pulse rifle I looked at earlier (9000)
 
So I am level 21 with no legendaries. What is the best way to get them? Grinding vanguard takes forever...

Queen's mission? Keep quitting out until you get the earth mission. Don't know if that changed recently, but that mission is super easy. Don't know how a level 21 will do in those missions, forgot what level the enemies are.

Vanguard is the easiest way, though. You can do assassination missions in patrol to get good rep, but it might take a while.
 
What is the fastest easiest strike to blow through? I need 7 more for bad ju ju quest and I'm maxed out with 200 vanguard marks. Still need 1k rep to hit lvl 2 with them so doing higher ranked strikes seem pointless
 
People say crucible is fast. I don't know.
On my alt i did bounties and story missions on harder dificulties.

I also did story missions and bounties on my alt, and it was faster than the crucible for me. As a lower level I was getting destroyed in the crucible, so the XP wasn't that great.
 
i use snipers in PvP :p

"Hey what's that shiny thing over the-"

Happens to me all the time and I never learn. :(
 
Is the Shadow Price worth buying from the Vanguard? I am saving up marks to hopefully buy it next week after the reset.

I've been using the Shadow Price for a while now (didn't even upgrade it all the way) and loving it. Great assault rifle and doesn't take up an exotic slot like the Ice Breaker.
 
Nah, just ask for approval and I'll get you in.

I might need to approve officers or something eventually so they can do this job lol.

Also I spoke too soon, too many people are in the clan. Damn bungie.

Join as members so you can be in the clan whenever you want. It's kinda neat how flexible you can be between clans, but that still doesn't alleviate the fact this limit sucks and clans are kinda useless.

Hi Afrocious, I sent a join clan request last weekend. Please check and add me if possible. Thanks!

ok now try this hard light... https://www.bungie.net/en/Legend/2/4611686018429499189/2305843009215623603#gear

the monte calro is working on the 1st dmg upgrade (damn that is allot of exp) This hard light is in the tree past that and is gaining on 2 at once.

can you only find primary weapons? Cause I got some exotic secondaries.
 
i use snipers in PvP :p
lol well there you go. I can't stand snipers, so your special weapon slot is accounted for
i'd level it up if it was void. i have too many solar stuff.
Right there with you on anything void. Lacking Void grenades as a built-in option is REALLY making me look forward to my alts. Goddamn Praetorians.
They are rather similar. But imo; Devil for PvE and Lord for PvP.
That sounds right to me too.
 
No kidding- what was your issue with it?

Oh, if anyone wants in on the pick three items challenge, I'm starting to analyze the responses, so this is your last chance to be counted if you wanna contribute. So far, with 23 responses, there is still yet to be a complete 3-for-3 overlap/match.

If you already posted and want to make sure you've been counted, check here

It feels unlike any other fusion rifle in PvP to me, but of course it's up to you, give it a shot or just put it in the vault for a rainy day.

Easily the top 3 for me are:
Achlyophage Symbiote (Gunslinger all day)
Last Word
Ice Breaker
 
Yeah I use it more then the suros in PvP. Personally I think it's a beast


I've been using the Shadow Price for a while now (didn't even upgrade it all the way) and loving it. Great assault rifle and doesn't take up an exotic slot like the Ice Breaker.

Good to know. When I max out my marks for this week i'll be just a few shy of getting it. Tuesday can't come soon enough
 
Tell me what you're looking for out of it and I can make an easy recommendation :D[/QUOTE]

I really enjoyed the exploring/loot finding so if there is plenty of that then I might just dive in after I buy driveclub
 
This is about the time where you're at work and realize it wasn't the smartest idea to stay up till 3am playing Destiny.
 
OMGWTF Bungie plz.

Are exotic bounties locked or something 5th exotic bounty gave me the exact same 3, this is the 2nd time I had to ditch them, I hate doing that.
 
So I am level 21 with no legendaries. What is the best way to get them? Grinding vanguard takes forever...

Keep grinding rep, that is the most efficient way to get legendaries. I was in the same boat. However, through just focusing on rep, I have gone from 20 to almost 24 through the random drops and am nearly closing in on Rank 2. Lvl 24 is the peak before you need legendaries to progress. Overall, I think the progression path works well and if you follow the intended method of progression you will not get stuck at a Light level for an extended period of time (at least until you need Raid gear).

I was lucky enough to have 1 blue engram turn into a Legendary Primary Scout Rifle, but even without that, I would get there soon enough.

Code:
"level": 5,"step": 0,"progressToNextLevel": 1756,"nextLevelAt": 30000,

Meaning: 5th column, top element, 1756/30000 xp to complete.

The results don't look any different for stuff that is gaining "two at once". Here's how I think it works: Whenever the first slot in any upgrade column is completed, the next column is started and the XP is mirrored to any additional slots under the previous column.

Based upon this data, it looks like one could say that exotic weapons require 30,000 XP per upgrade circle and legendaries require 9000.
Looks like 7500 XP for legendary secondaries.
 
Fastest way to level up a starting character? Just play the game?

Without question it's doing the daily bounties and whatever story quests as needed. My total playtime to get a character to 20 was about 6 or 7 hours and that was with time wasted chatting with friends. The key, though, is to do it now while there are Queens missions to do. Up to 5000 xp per mission is huge.
 
Well the raid is pretty neat. We got to the last boss. Understand the decision to remove matchmaking for this specific feature set.. not so much the others.

Perhaps allow 2 fireteams of 3 to be matchmade for the raid would have been nice. Now you'd essentially have a much more accessible raid and 2 fireteam leaders holding the checkpoint reload. Woulda, coulda, shoulda


I also just can't see the raid content being that mainstream accessible given the difficulty and abstract nature of the gameplay.
 
I hope Iron Banner doesn't just give out re-skinned purples.

There's already too many exotics out in the wild.

It should be:

Raid and Weekly Nightfall and Xur gives you CHANCE at Exotics.

Iron Banner: Good chance at Purple.

Level 26 and below strikes/dailies/weeklies have chance for purples

Any player over level 20 has very small chance of getting a purple randomly.

New rarity (pink?) - Good luck. Rarest of the rare. Who the hell knows where to get one but pray to RNG. Raid Mode Hard/Nightfall have .00000001% of dropping one.
 
So guys, I'm rolling with my thorn right now but I'm looking to get a nice legendary handcannon for when I want to use an exotic secondary/heavy, what would you recommend?

I would recommend "The devil You Know" 12 shots and it hits like a freight train. Fires crazy fast.
 
Guys, how can I report players after the MP match is over? Saw a Fireteam cooperating in Rumble and got pissed (even though I won anyway).

Why report them? They were probably working on a bounty. Rumble is one of the best ways to get the Invective bounty. It's the only way I got it. Someone like me, with a consistently negative k:d in PvP will never be good enough to get that k:d spread in PvP. So my clan asked me to sit in a corner on a map. They then ran over to let me kill them. If someone else came close, they'd try to kill him, or asked me to back out and rejoin. A shameful strategy, yes, but I got my Invective and we went back to playing normal control and skirmish. It was only for the bounty, nothing else.

I can't imagine any team enjoying cooperating in Rumble on a regular basis. Even the biggest cheeseballs would prefer a competitive shootout with clanmates. Cooperating in Rumble sounds like bounty chasing, and I have no problem with that. Tying accomplishments to competitive multiplayer is one of the best ways to encourage bad behavior. The day game devs learn this will be the day online multiplayer returns to its pure Doom/Quake roots. PEACE.
 
God I'm getting so pissed off at these daily mission. Every single one for the last week has given me energy and no shards. I'm sitting here with 16 energy and 2 shards :|
 
So guys, I'm rolling with my thorn right now but I'm looking to get a nice legendary handcannon for when I want to use an exotic secondary/heavy, what would you recommend?

Devil You Know or Lord High Fixer.

Lord High Fixer if you prefer range. Devil You Know if you prefer stability/accuracy.

Oh nice! How long is that going to last again?
 
Buying them with your marks

Yep, when you think of it as grinding rep it sucks. I enjoyed this process more by mixing bounties, patrols and public events together. The public events help with marks and you get at least one ass mat plus all 3 build rep too (I think public events do at least) so you can be doing a variety of things at once. Maybe you'll even get a random drop with something nice while you are doing it.

It ends the 6th, I should really make sure everyone knows the implications of this.

If you have any interest in doing so for endgame, now until Monday is the right time to get your alts to 20 and run a few queen's gauntlet bounties on them for an easy path to 24-26.
