Xur has been very good to Titans, not so much to Warlocks.
Have 56 strange coins, wonder if I should wait til next week, or buy Red Death. I don't use Pulse Rifles and I already have Monte Carlo.

Are there any elemental Exotics that I should wait for?
Not worth it.
 
A question about Sunbreakers and exotic loot in general: Isn't the defense rating of fully upgraded exotic gloves always going to be less than a chest piece or helmet? Why would a player commit to wearing exotic gloves given the choice?

Because it's the only exotic Xur wants to give us poor Warlocks!
 
Posting again before bed.

Wanting to do raid on ps4 around 2pm central. PM if you are interested and I will add you after my slumber.
 
10,000 kills in the Crucible... This can't be for real. Bad JuJu isn't even worth it. Ugh. I'll just take this Red Death, I guess.

It just means 10 thousand points from kills in the crucible.

Because the bonus lets you have like 5 solar grenades active at once. That's way more valuable than 30 defense.

Because in the Sunbreakers case it makea the Solar Grenades ridiculously strong
 
So Bungie is going to realise how this is complete bullcrap and pull the Sunbreaker from Xur for another Warlock Exotic within the hour, right?

Because this is really fucking all Warlocks over twice considering Xur is hugely important for endgame loot and he has done fuck-all for Warlocks ( Worst Helmet in the game with the Apotheosis Veil and then repeating the same fucking gear piece thrice, while Hunters and Titans consistently got their very best gear that massively improves their respective supers and overall play. ).

Honestly, this is really turning me off from this game...
 
Oh cool, Helm of Saint-14, I've been needing something like that, I'll take it Xur, here's your coins. Oh, and I have 23 Motes too! Maybe I'll get something cool for one of my alts.

Helm of Saint-14 again..
 
That's the exact Titan helm I wanted.

Oh yes. Oh yes.

Looks wonderful with Thunderdevil shader and Dead Orbit gear.

What to so with these motes though. The only Titan mark I like is the Pilgrim Guard (rare), and I already have two exotic Titan helms.

Wolf cape for alt Hunter?

Wolf cape.

Seriously. Fix this shit Bungie. I ended up buying the engram in the hopes of finally getting another good Warlock exotic and of course I get ANOTHER Titan exotic from his stupid engrams.

Fuck you Xur.
 
Been using a fully upgraded Helm of Saint-14 and its fucking dope. Works wonders in Strikes when enemies enter the bubble.
 
So saint-14, worth it purely for pvp? I have crest of alpha lupi but it doesn't do much in pvp. The blinding bubble seems fun but I have not yet leveled up the defender subclass so I'm not sure how often it would be useful. Not sure if i want to gamble on the engram either. Decisions, decisions.

third's time the charm? i'm permanently stuck at 27 because i'm waiting for an exotic armor, bought the exotic engram and turned into a wrong class item

Xur hates warlocks confirmed

If you're going to do the engram, /always/ do it first if the class item you want is the same slot.

Sunbreakers again... What is Bungie doing?
 
Is Red Death any good? Need some honest impressions.
So is Red Death worth using?

I'm just going to quote myself here.
For people wondering about the Red Death, I've had it for 3 weeks or so now and it's pretty good. Reminds me of the BR from Halo. It's still a pulse rifle though so it's not going to perform miracles. Otherwise it's very accurate and the time between burst is very much like the BR. A solid primary imo, not too great for PvP though, but for PvE it's great.
 
Red Death, nice, bought!

Considering that Hunter helm but to be honest I'm more than happy with Knucklehead Radar.

Collecting a bunch of nice Exotic weapons: Red Death, Suros Regime, Ice Breaker, Truth and soon Pocket Infinity. Nice :)

Not sure which I like more.

First world problems.
 
Bad Juju is kinda bad but will be buff
Hand Canon is super hard to do. You seriously need friends to boost/help and the gun, even how amazing it looks, sucks hard. Will be buffed too but who knows...
Invective is a beast in PVP

God damnit. I got the exotic bounties yesterday and thought the reward was random. I choose the hand cannon bounty.
I would have wanted the shotgun... I don't use hand cannons.


How long will it take to get the bounties again?
 
Looks like I have two of the 3 items this weekend. That's not a big deal for me. I've got to upgrade the lot I have already, and that's no quick task. Plus, I'm sure I'll be getting some more exotic bounties soon.

I'm two motes short of 25, so I'm going to grind a little tomorrow and try the engram first. I'd prefer to get Innermost Light, so I can also grab Saint-14 and have two helms waiting for my titan. I don't mind stockpiling coins for another week. PEACE.
 
Bought two engrams from Xur. Got helmets both the classes i dont play. Well. Im done for the night. I do like Red Death though.
 
Bought an exotic helm engram just for fun since I have extra motes, got the warlock helm that reduces resurrection times. I'm leveling up a warlock for the main purpose of getting extra coins and doing another raid each week, is that the best exotic armor to use for stuff like that, since I'd probably be running the self-res loadout?

Edit: To clarify, I know it doesn't affect the timer of the self-res super, I just mean since the other exotics all seem to benefit things that don't seem as useful in a raid/strike setting.
 
Didn't want the Saint 14 for my Titan as I prefer the striker class so I gambled on the exotic engram. I got Mark of the Third Man helmet for a Hunter.....my other character I started is a Warlock. BOO!!!!!
 
Red death grants health with each kill which can be a lot of fun for people who like to dive head first into action. I only had 30 coins so couldn't get an armor piece as well, but I'm a Warlock and every Warlock owns Sunbreakers.

Sunbreakers are awesome and I think I prefer it over Heart of Praxic Fire simply because you use grenades a lot more than supers, but Sunbreakers for a third time in four weeks? Absolutely nothing to encourage people to sick with Voidwalker. The bat majority of Warlocks use Sunsinger, no diversity.
 
I have the Mask of the Third Man for Bladedancer and now I'll get the symbiote for gunslinger :D

I am a happy loadout switching Hunter :D
 
I just want to reiterate this. Red Death is a good weapon, it's just not amazing. If you don't have a solid exotic primary then absolutely pick it up.
 
So saint-14, worth it purely for pvp?

I've used the saint-14 helm for a while and I would say no. You should be killing people as soon as they enter your shield so blinding them has little effect. When blinded, players seem to spam shoot/melee any way.
In pve it's pretty great as you no longer have to consider using the overshield upgrade. The blind effect on monsters makes them stop attacking and they hold their face, allowing you to kill them easily without you getting hurt.
 
Gotta love these Bungies automated systems that they clearly don't bother to keep eye on.

Bounties for gamemodes that aren't even available for play and now Xûr selling Sunbreakers for third time out of four when he has been available. In comparison Hunter and Titan has always got new item to purchase.

What a fucking joke.

Sunbreakers are awesome and I think I prefer it over Heart of Praxic Fire simply because you use grenades a lot more than speed, but Sunbreakers for a third time in four weeks? Absolutely nothing to encourage people to sick with Voidwalker. The bat majority of Warlocks use Sunsinger, no diversity.

I would argue that Sunsinger is so popular because self-resurrection. Going to raid, normal or hard, without is just silly because you are gimping your own performance in shit situations where you may get OHKd etc. Voidwalker just doesn't offer such insane imba utility like self-resurrection and small damage done spike from nova lance just isn't nearly as good in raid environment.

And yes, I do play Warlock full time.
 
Unreal been stuck at 29 for three weeks. have been waiting for an exotic gauntlets for hunter. Sir never sells him and the raid never gives me them... Salty
 
I need to say it again, a fully stabilise The Last Word is the best thing to happen to my pvp game since I started playing.

That hip fire... The advantage of not having to aim is just incredible.
