[Mike Double U]

How did you get so many coins?

I have 49 saved up right now. I haven't purchased anything from Xur in two weeks. That's how you get so many coins.

 

[Kaiken]

Yeah. I feel bad because, so far, I'm making out like a bandit. That one chest gave me both Patience and Time AND the raid cloak. I think everyone else got Shards.

Yeah you lucky bastard.

 

[ItsAllGoodInMyHood]

Finally done VoG yesterday! It was fairly easy tbh, but lots of fun. Got me Final Verdict, Universal Remote, Vision of Confluence, Raid bond for Warlock + mats + shader. God, this game is fun!

 

[WooHooAlex]

No sign of Xur yet?

 

[dacalo]

daily heroic strike level 28 anyone?

PSN dacalo

 

[Raxus]

No sign of Xur yet?

5 AM est. Expect him around the class quartermasters. Look for the crowd of people

 

[Unstable]

No sign of Xur yet?

Three and a Half hours to go until Santa Xur arrives.

Spoiler

With Ice Breaker Pls

 

[Juraash]

For those that have done the raid are the modifiers on the armor random or set?

 

[CLBridges]

Think I'm gonna try to stay up for Xur because, reasons. I have nothing planned for Friday, so guess I'll waste away more of my life on Destiny lol. I don't really need anymore gear, so if he's selling a nice weapon, I might pick it up or try my luck with an engram just for fun.

I picked up Suros last time and while it's probably best AF in game, I'm not really a big fan of it like I thought I would be. I still really like my Shadow Price and will probably stick with that and give the Suros to my 2nd class (Titan) once I hit 20+.

 

[Eppy Thatcher]

Just talked to my buddy who got done running through something like 7 strikes and found a small treasure of blues that all decrypted down to garbage he couldn't use... I feel like i'm in Spaceballs with this game sometimes...

 

[Ruthless_Barbarian]

For those that have done the raid are the modifiers on the armor random or set?

They are set.

 

[StrongBlackVine]

So many engrams after the patch.

Ranked up the Vanguard about 10 times since yesterday

How is that even possible?

 

[Flo_Evans]

Hit that slump where I can't really advance till I get Raid Gear or Ascendant Energy. Annoying because I've done the Raid twice, and also got 41 Ascendant Shards, just no Energy. Le sigh...

I have 30 energy and 1 shard...

 

[AlexIIDX]

I just started the raid and got boots called "Tread of the Hezen Lords", do these go up to 30 light?

 

[The Librarian]

WAY TO ABANDON ME MR. FAMICOM

 

[Sojgat]

I feel weird only asking this now, but is there a way to switch between characters without closing the game?

 

[FamousLastX]

9 out of my last 10 Crucible matches have been on Earth maps. I think my spaceship is broken

 

[TheVanillaGorilla]

For some reason the game keeps giving me Heavy Weapon Engrams when I am fortunate enough to get an Legendary.

Same. I've had two legendary engrams, both heavies.

 

[Eppy Thatcher]

Start - all the way to the right to settings (r1 or right bumber) - Log Out - Change character

 

[Flo_Evans]

Yes.

 

[Juraash]

They are set.

Thanks for the response. I guess the bonuses are generic enough to cater to w/e you want to use. Kinda silly that they single out auto rifles to boost on the chest but w/e.

 

[G_Berry]

Im waiting for Xur so I can get the next stage of the exotic Bad Ju-Ju bounty completed.

What mats / funds will I nee to give him?

 

[rdrr gnr]

1 Strange coin.

 

[Deku Tree]

Yup. Hezen Lords = RAID GEAR. You can also look at the upgrade chart. I think you get 2 or 3 light for each defense upgrade so you can count them.

 

[G_Berry]

1 Strange coin.

What a fucker.

 

[-PXG-]

This game plus Smash. And too think I just got promoted at work and getting back with my ex...


LOOOOL. NOPE. FUCK THAT NOISE!!

Smash and Destiny all fucking day. And we are just getting stsrted

 

[AlexIIDX]

Yes.

Yup. Hezen Lords = RAID GEAR.

Excellent, thanks.

 

[Hawkian]

hooo boy that raid is srs bsns

awesome group zero, squall, mint, carbine, jay. we will crush atheon on sunday

 

[Seventy70]

This is why I don't post to r/DestinyTheGame and stick to GAF for Destiny talk.

You try to make a fun thing for the community and...

Haha. SadTrombone.wav

What is it that you posted? I think I would find it useful

 

[CLBridges]

I just started the raid and got boots called "Tread of the Hezen Lords", do these go up to 30 light?

Why yes they do and 'grats. Good luck on the rest of the raid, may RNG be kind to you the whole way through lol.

 

[GraveRobberX]

Are people really struggling with the Nightfall? This weeks is super easy.

I've tried 6 times, all fail @ Boss ; ;

 

[Sojgat]

Start - all the way to the right to settings (r1 or right bumber) - Log Out - Change character

Thanks. Only recently got secondary characters to a high enough level to want to do this.

 

[Ruthless_Barbarian]

I have 30 energy and 1 shard...

Can we trade? I have 45 shards and only 2 energies.

Oh wait...

 

[Kalamari]

I just made rank 4 with Vanguard, all they gave me was ass energy and a mote of lite.

Is Rahool consulting for Vanguard now?

 

[Dante316]

I've tried 6 times, all fail @ Boss ; ;

Hide under the stairs, brings lots of ammo, jump n shoot...

 

[The Mango Sentinel]

I haven't even tried a nightfall yet. Felt like it would be hard as hell to do with two people below 28.

Could a lvl 26 and 27 get it done within a reasonable amount of time?

 

[Ruthless_Barbarian]

If you have good arc weapons, yes.

 

[GraveRobberX]

Doesn't work, adds surround you and boss is opposite the area

 

[Myoclonic Jerk]

So I finally got to finish Nightfall

I got a single drop of a legendary arc fusion rifle. I have almost the exact same one

That's really shit.. Seriously

So now i can't play nightfall till next week?

Is it normal that our group didn't get anything? We did die a lot. Maybe that's why?

 

[Alucrid]

Doesn't work, adds surround you and boss is opposite the area

adds can't hurt you there, just clear them out before leaving to attack the boss

you only get rewards once a week

Bring an Arc sniper rifle and a couple Special Ammo boxes and you're golden. Run to the back left - bottom corner of the room as you enter it and jump in between the cracks between the boxes there. You'll get into a little room of love where you can pick him off at your leisure. Headshots with a legendary sniper of the Arc variety will net you 20k+ dmg. Visible chunks of his lifebar come off with every shot.

 

[Hawkian]

you can basically take out every single add from that spot and then pop out and get his attention. you shouldn't really even be in danger, it's quite the cheesy spot

 

[Stratosphere]

Sorry I couldn't help ya out man. That part is tough.

Is there a video of this anywhere? I'd like to see it in action before going back in.

 

[Rsinart]

Best way to find a raid group?? I have tried for 2 weeks now to get friends on at the same time and its a no go. Really would like to do the raid some more.

 

[GraveRobberX]

I watched the video on how to, but the dude never comes there, also I pop my head out, Psions everywhere
I have no Arc Sniper, running Rare LMG with Arc and Rare Pulse with Fire

So you have to have a maxed out LegendaryArc Sniper or have the uber Exotic Ice Breaker...

So you have to have the weapons to even try this >_<

 

[BigJonsson]

Any lvl 28 weekly strike groups forming? Or nightfall?

 

[jacob armitage]

For some reason the game keeps giving me Heavy Weapon Engrams when I am fortunate enough to get an Legendary.

I have a similar issue except its with snipers, even the first exotic i got was a sniper.

completely crap w/ 'em haha.

 

[Acorn]

Is the daily at 28 doable solo?

 

[Triz]

The three legendaries I got from engrams were all friendly giant rocket launchers. Then today I randomly got truth from a crucible reward.
