It's not exactly about subjective experience, but about what changes are demonstrable -- independent of whether that affects your play style. Health and armor are normalized, yet agility and recovery, in a sense, are not. One of the game's many issues when transitioning between PvP and PvE. It makes maximum recovery the most logical choice in nearly every scenario and, therefore, the best ability.

i watched that video yesterday and i stand by what i said.
 
Knucklehead for PvP, Symbiote for Gunslinger PvE. Mask of Third Man for Bladedancer.

That's how I roll.

Why not have both? Both provide different perks. If you are using Bladedancer, Knuckledhead is what you equip. If you need to change back to gunslinger, equip Symbiote.

*edit* What Klyka said ^^^^

Thanks, thats kind of how I was leaning.

I wont grab both because I have two level 26+ toons now, with a titan on the way.
I think I'll stick with the Knucklehead.

If I didnt randomly get Heart of Praxic Fire from a purple, I'd probably grab the Warlock gloves, but I'm loving the Heart
 
Xur's selections suck.

BTW, Thorn or Bad Juju? I already have the Invective. And I already have the hawkmoon, so not sure if I'd need another handcannon.
 
Tell me your secret because AFAIK there's only one Public Event every 15 minutes and a Strike takes 10 minutes.

Sorry I mean patrols. I've been doing it for a few weeks and it's a lot quicker than Strikes plus it's a piece of cake. I find Earth to be the best since its small and they are close to each other.

Edit: But yea public events can be handy as well since some happen while doing a patrol so you can bag some ascendant materials or other rewards at the same time.
 
Quick question:

Clash or Control for both Depleted Hand Cannon Bounty and Darkness-Infused Pulse rifle bounty? I got void auto and sniper rifle for the hand cannon bounty and just need less than 400 points to complete it.

I found control easier. Enemies are more predictable there as you know which objectives they wil go for. Don't focus on winning the game, just hunt and kill and stay alive.

The final part of this bounty is unbelievable hard though. Two fellow gaffers wanted to help me out yesterday, but the psn friendlist issues put a halt to that plan.
 
The helm is great in pvp.

Blinding ward and faster Melee are very useful. The blinding ward is the clincher though. Aside from the obvious benefit, you can use the bubble to close off narrow passages and disorientate any enemies who run through it.
Again, not really. Some idiots will challenge Titans in shields, but if you are playing against people who know what they are doing, the best use of the shields is buffing the health of teammates and then being aggressive. Or you could cheese enemies by getting near them and then bubbling, but still -- I wouldn't say great. "Faster" melee is a tiny difference that doesn't overcome the near-zero range of the Titan's melee and if you are consistently double-meleeing people, you should probably start that encounter with a shotty.

Uh... okay?
That helm does not work in PvP I've read. It's a pve item
I believe it works similar to the Titan's flash bang grenade, though I have not tried it myself.

Guess I'd go with Bad Juju then. Both weapons are getting buffed though.

Just know that you need Xur for bad juju, so if you can't get to him before he leaves then you're stuck with that bounty until next weekend.
 
Got Shadow Price last night for the Weekly Nightfall (thanks again for the help, Krogan). Damn, what a nice gun. I'm going to stop leveling my Monte Carlo and work on getting SP fully upgraded, it handles like a dream so far with no upgrades.

I tried hiding in the cheese spot during the boss fight, and I'll be damned if a Psion didn't follow me down there on TWO separate occasions. Praise the sun for the self-rezzing perk.

But you were talking about marks. Do you get marks from Patrols?

Go all in and get BJJ since you have Hawkmoon. Buff incoming but zero details in that matter. Doubt you'll be using it much before the buff but who knows after the buff.
 
Bungie needs to make the strikes in the strike playlist more random. I always seem to get the same ones over and over. I've only ever gotten one of the Mars strikes twice or so and the other I just got it for the first time the other day and hasn't come up since. I didn't even that one of those excited.

eh? does that helm work in PvP? I cant recall ever being blinded but normally I dont walk into another defender titans buble unless mine is overlapping their's. LOL

Yup 4 per completion and rep wihch is either 10 or 25 depending which you do. You can really build up much quicker this way. They need to buff the Mark rewards on Strikes because it's just not worth it.

Collecting Materials = 10 rep
Scout Area = 10 rep
Kill Certain Amount = 10 rep
Kill Boss = 25 rep

The bosses are like lvl 10-12 on Earth and can be killed in a few shots.

Yes. It works. All perks aside from the damage armour upgrades work in pvp.

It was rare to see before because it was an exotic helm that not many had. Expect to see blinding wards a lot more often now Xur's handed the helm out.

You sure you get 4 marks from Patrols? I don't think so.
 
I think I'll get nothing and just dismiss the bounty LOL. I can't be bothered with these annoying-ass requirements for shit weapons.
 
Might as well buy the Sunbreakers just for having them and using them sometimes. Wanted the exotic praxic fire. This will do for a mean time.
 
Knucklehead Radar vs Symbiote helm.

The Radar while ADS is amazing, but not game breaking
Having a fourth Golden Gun shot sounds great too, but not always up/useful

Thoughts?

I have knucklehead from a random Engram, but contemplating Symbiote

Knucklehead has Inverse Shadow. For that alone it wins imo. One golden gun shot is worth less then a sniper crit.
 
Anybody have any impressions of The Swarm Leg LMG? Been using a rocket launcher pretty much exclusively, but this dropped last night.

Not only are they annoying requirements for shit weapons, they are annoying requirements for shit weapons that everyone gets the chance to get. It totally diminishes the allure of exotic weapons. Oh, you have Thorn? SO DOES EVERYONE ELSE...
 
Finished my Bad Juju bounty. That makes 5 exotic weapons and 2 exotic pieces of armor.

Weapons:

Suros Regime
Invective
Bad Juju
Gjallarhorn
The Last Word

Armor:

Helm of Inmost Light (Striker Titan)
Helm of Saint-14 (Defender Titan)

there is ZERO way you get marks from patrols.

All you get is 10 or 25 rep.
 
What's the word on Red Death?

How does Raid rewards work? Can I get anything again if I've done one this week? What about chests in VoG?
The drops work on a weekly reset. If you do the raid again you will get nothing from the bosses or the chests. The exception being if you do the raid again on hard mode, in which case you will receive loot again from the bosses (with the chance for hard mode exclusive loot to drop) but not the chests.
 
Destiny's lore is based on real data. Hive on the moon confirmed. Traveller coming soon.

unless it's hard mode you will get nothing from clearing it or chests

Everything is once a week unless you try hard mode as well. Then you just get boss loot and sometimes stuff from one of the chests.
Thanks. Waiting for next week I guess.
 
Have to get 200 kills in the Nightfall using Fusion Rifles for the Pocket Infinity. What a pain in the ass.

Tell me about it. I can get like 7-8 kills per run, and then I'm shit out of luck because I honestly can't kill anything else to get Special Ammo to kill more. So I'm stuck in this endless loop of restarting the mission, getting 7ish kills, rinse, repeat. Pretty damn horrible.
